All the fun, Great care taken

Pet care experience

I owned a small rescue dog for 6 years. I had a community of friends with other small dogs. We house sat for each other as needed and between 3 owners and 4 dogs, we had lots of play dates together. I am very patient and overall, love being around animals. My dog passed in 2020, and although I am not ready to have a dog again, I still enjoy taking care of other dogs.

Leigh has been doing drop-in visits for over six months, and this is her second time dog sitting for us. She is communicative and reliable, and more importantly, she does a great job with our anxious pup. She gets her to eat and relax when we are away and gives her lots of attention and pets, which helps ease our anxiety. She is also very conscientious about our space and left the apartment clean! 100% recommend.

My kitty was in great hands with Leigh! She was extremely responsive and sent great pics. She went above and beyond and brought a package of mine inside which I so appreciate! Highly recommend.

Leigh took wonderful care of my pup and my home! Very communicative, with lots of sweet updates. It was a real comfort to know that everything was in great hands while I was out of town. Highly recommend! ✨

Safety, trust & environment

In your home, I pay attention to detail and follow whatever instructions necessary to ensure their needs are met while understanding some pets are more high maintenance than others and have just as different personalities as we humans. I really do my best to ensure they’re safe and generally air on the side of caution with them when outside.

Information Leigh J. would like to know about your pet

Let me know any special needs your pet may have or any behaviors that are important to note. What are their quirks and dislikes? How are they on leash?

A typical day

I love enhancing the skills your pet is already working on and introducing new ones as they’re ready. If they need exercise, I’ll jog with them and take them to their favorite park to play fetch or relax.

I currently offer drop ins and housesitting. I work part time so I have a flexible schedule some days of the week. You may see that my most recent work was in Brooklyn, NC. I successfully worked part time with many repeat clients until I moved back to NC last winter. Now that I am more grounded from this transition, I’m excited to be offering let care services once again.
