Information Leigh D. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if you pet has any special needs, age, medication, requiring specific exercise needs or no exercise allowed at all. Size of the animal will also be useful.

A typical day

For dogs: since I am an active person, I will take them for daily walks, and play in the garden. Then some relax and sleep time would also be involved for the animal. For cats: I am happy to play games with them in doors and provide a safe space for them to relax and sleep.

Pet care experience

I have had a life time of animal experience through my family being a loving and dedicated animal family. We have owned cats, dogs, turtles (yes the swimming kind), horses and even birds. Through this, I have learnt a vast amount amount of dealing with all kinds of animals, from.shy, to needing space and those needing discipline. I don't have any certificates, but what I do have is a heart full of love to give any animal.

Walt spent 8 nights with Leigh and had the best time! Leigh sent lots of updates, pictures, and videos throughout the trip and kept us updated daily. Walt had a really great time and I will definitely be booking again with Leigh. Sincere thanks from our family!

Leigh was absolutely brilliant with Barbara, accommodating all her needs (attention, cuddles and walks!) Great communication and sent photos and updates. Barbara was super happy and I wouldn't hesitate booking again.
