Pet care experience
My daughters and I love dogs and have always dreamt of adopting all of the dogs in the shelter. I realize that owning 100 dogs and having a family of my own is a wee bit too much. But, we can meet lots of dogs through dog sitting and that is just as much fun! We have a small dog (26 lbs) named Rio and meet and greets are preferred before bookings. My husband, myself and our 3 older children provide dog boarding services because we love animals and look for the opportunity to host dogs as much as we can! We own a farm in Maine and have 10 chickens, 2 goats and a goldfish. We lost our dog in 2018. He was 12, blind and had insulin-dependent diabetes. Finding someone to care for him when we were away was a challenge. He had many medications, oral and inject-able, and various eye drops. This experience has inspired us to be the caregivers we always needed for our dog when we were away. Please contact us with any questions you may have!
Reviews
Tuck loved his time with Leanne and her family!
Leanne, James and their kids were wonderful! Our dog Penny loved her stay and was showered with affection by the kids. We'd recommend them to anyone and will use them again.
Leanne and her family were just wonderful. They cared for my Bichon as if she was a part of their family. I had never left my dog alone with a stranger in her 11 years but now they are no longer strangers. Leanne sent updates and pics each day which allowed me to relax on my vacation knowing she was in caring hands. I highly recommend Leanne as a sitter. You couldn’t ask for any better.
Leanne and her family were the perfect match for my pups! They were so generous with their time and energy giving my 3 year old lab cross the exercise he needs to stay happy and then were able to show such calm tenderness with my 16 year old collie mix. They were very patient when my boy showed some separation anxiety and worked through his issues with him and kept me informed each step of the way. They sent the cutest pics and I was able to relax and enjoy my family vacation. I will definitely be using her in the future when we need a sitter!!!

I would like to know if your dog(s) have ever bitten another person. Sorry, no biters or aggressive breeds. I always set up meet and greets with the dogs I care for to make sure it is the right fit for everyone and to ensure your dog gets along with my dog. Also, we have 10 free range chickens, and 2 goats, so please inform me if your dog is not trustworthy around birds. Thanks!
A typical day
We will most certainly walk the trails at my house and play fetch and any other games you furry one likes the most! Please bring along their favorite toys, blankets, etc.!

My two daughters graduated from high school last year and are taking a gap year. This is their main job. I work as a per diem physical therapist so I have flexibility. Between the 3 of us and my son, your pup will get tons of belly scratches and walks on our nature trails!
