a sitter you can trust!
Pet care experience
I’m a dog person through-and-through. My husband and I have owned 2 German shepherds over the last few years, raising them up from 8 weeks old. I absolutely love not only caring for dogs, but helping them become more obedient and well-behaved. We’ve had our struggles raising working-line German shepherds. They’re not easy - I’ve learned SO MUCH over the past few years about how to raise an obedient pup, between taking our own dogs to training classes, and speaking first hand with our dog’s breeder about the best practices to keep your dog engaged and active. I’m great with large dogs, small dogs, young dogs, and older dogs. If you have training issues you need sorted out, I’ll also do my best to work with them and apply what I’ve learned to help your dog’s behavioral issues, however minor they may be.
Reviews
Leigh Ann is wonderful! She was very calm and confident with our reactive dog and I felt very comfortable leaving him with her while we were away. Will book again!
Leigh Ann would be a great choice for pet-sitter! She is responsible, punctual, dependable, and most importantly…she loves animals! She grew up with dogs and cats, and she and her husband have a 2 year old German shepherd who is well-trained and very obedient. I would recommend Leigh Ann to watch and care for any pet, because she will do it lovingly and competently.
Leigh Ann is very patient and caring with animals and enjoys playing with dogs. She's spoils her own dog and will do the same with others :)
Leigh Ann is the best sitter you can get! She’s loving and caring and treats your pets just like her own. In addition, she’ll follow your instructions to a T make sure your baby is taken care of.

I will make sure to stick with your dog’s routine while sitting in your home. Comfortability is everything, so I want to ensure that your dog feels safe with me, but will also respect me. I’ll also take great care of your home while you’re away - I can even perform small household chores if necessary!
Information Leigh Ann B. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know the energy level of your dog and how many hours of exercise your pup normally gets on a day to day basis. I’d also like to know any allergies, food restrictions, behavior around other dogs, and behavior on walks.
A typical day
I absolutely love taking dogs on long walks or hikes for physical exercise. I’m also a fan of mental stimulation, such as playing games like “find it” to get some nose work in.
