Pet care experience
Hi there! We’re Leesa, Nic and Arthur — an Oakland based young fam who would love to have your dog over to play. We believe a calm, happy environment with lots of mental stimulation is the key to a happy pooch -- that means lots of doggy classical music, working together on training, and relaxed playtime. For dogs with boundless energy, we love a game of fetch or a walk around the local area. Lake Merritt is especially lovely. When your dog stays with us, we make sure to provide lots of mental enrichment. Doggy ice blocks when its hot outside, training games, visits to the local neighborhoods, and playtime with Arthur. Leesa has a background in animal behavior, with a certificate II in animal husbandry and studied animal behavior at the bachelor degree level for one year. Nic is a dog lover, with endless energy for games and play. Arthur is a five month old poodle, so he likes to bounce, nibble and be a pupper :)
Reviews
Leesa is a huge animal lover and would be a perfect dog sitter. She is responsible and caring and will look after your dog as if it was her own. A perfect dog mama for your pet while youre away or just need someone to care for your treasured pet for a while. I can highly recommend Leesa
Leesa treats Phillip like a dog of her own! He requires lots of love (walks, talks, and training) and after being with Leesa he comes home in a much better mood. I highly recommend her for any kind of dog watching needs :)
I've known Leesa for years and if I'm going to trust anyone with my dogs it's her! I've seen her raise her own puppy into a happy, well-loved dog and can't imagine her living a life without dogs in it. A kind, generous and capable dog-lover indeed!

Information Leesa & Nicholas G. would like to know about your pet
Any behavioral habits I might need to be aware of, for example: Does your dog have guarding tendencies? Does he or she like to be picked up? Are they dog, child, man and woman social? Do they jump up? Do they bark? Separation anxiety? And so on.
A typical day
We live in a huge loft space with plenty of room for exploring and even playing fetch indoors (!!). I live nearby Lake Merrit, so we can take a lovely walk by the water or visit a cafe if your dog enjoys it. Otherwise, we'll spend most of our time in the loft, working on training, taking potty breaks, and playing with toys.
