Tail-Wagging Walks with a Pawesome Pal!
Pet care experience
I have a year of hands-on dog care experience that began with raising my friend's dog Mowgli from his puppy days to adulthood. Every Thursday I'd provide a full day of dog sitting, as well as supporting his puppy training by helping him with his 'homework'! From teaching recall in the park to mastering fun tricks. This journey gave me confidence and skills in dog handling, and sparked my interest canine enrichment – a holistic approach to keeping dogs mentally and physically stimulated. I want to continue with my doggy experience so I can give a loving home to a rescue dog in the future.
Reviews
Leanne was the perfect house sitter with our dog Rizzo. As it was a relatively last minute change of plans that meant we needed someone to look after Rizzo, Leanne was really accommodating and we could see she’d be really good with her from our initial meeting. She sent lots of updates while we were away, which put our minds at ease, and we’ll definitely be asking again in the future! Thank you!
Mabel loves her walks with Leanne! Thank you!
Always takes a lot of care and attention. Mabel loves going on her walks and exploring and I really appreciate the lovely photos.
Leanne is a responsible person who has a love for animals, cats and dogs especially. She can be trusted and I would not hesitate to leave a pet with her. Leanne’s enthusiastic and caring and your dog will always look forward to its walk or time with her!

Safety, trust & environment
I prioritize safety, trust, and creating a calm environment for dogs in my care. Here's how: 1. Tailored Care: Through consultation with owners beforehand, I tailor my care to each individual dog's needs, ensuring they receive the attention, exercise, and companionship that suits them best. 2. Canine Enrichment: Canine enrichment is at the heart of what I do. I provide mental and physical stimulation through activities, games, and challenges, helping dogs stay happy and healthy. 3. All the Cuddles! There's no shortage of companionship and affection for your furry friend. 4. Initial Meeting: To build trust and address specific needs, I'm more than happy to arrange an initial meeting. This allows your dog to get acquainted with me and gives you the opportunity to share your preferences and expectations. 5. DBS Background Checked: For added peace of mind, I have undergone a DBS background check and can provide a recent certificate. With these measures in place, you can be confident that your dog will receive the best care and attention they deserve.

Working from home as an academic researcher 3 days a week (Monday, Wednesday, and Friday) grants me the flexibility to offer morning, lunchtime, or evening walks as part of a regular schedule. This means your furry friend can count on consistent care and companionship throughout the week.
