Pug mom of 4 available to babysit

I have been a dog mom to multiple dogs since I was 25. That’s over 25 years of having my own fur family! In my 30s I worked closely with the Durham Nc SPCA to foster pit mix dogs that could not be adopted. I kept them safe and loved and helped to socialize them for private adoption. Rescuing animals has always been my personal mission … while officially fostering I also had the pleasure to love many lost and abandoned animals that would find their way onto my farm. We recently purchased a mini farm in Mooresville (28115) that we share with our 6 Airedale terriers and 4 pugs from the ages of 4-9 years old. We have designed our farm with several different fenced in yards and spaces for our visiting pets to feel safe but still get to be active. Our home has been designed to offer an indoor activity space as well private suits for each visiting pup. We limit the amount of boards and babies that we allow into our day care in order to give that VIP service to all babies at the farm. We also offer pick up and drop off options! Needless to say, I’m an animal lover who would love to help you feel comfortable stepping away from your home if even for a moment!

Leigh was Great & is one of our favorites. We hadn’t needed a Rover in a while, but our Dog Ranger recognized her and was so happy. She is always great with him, sends updates and we’d recommend her for your fur babies.

I contacted Leigh at the last minute and she responded quickly. Upon meeting her, I knew she would be a perfect fit for my furries. She loved my pups as her own and sent photos of their adventures! I highly recommend Leigh. Her sitter prices were reasonable. Having pets of her own, she is knowledgeable and seems willing to take on any pet concerns. will definitely use her services again! She is a gem!

Leigh was great! We felt very at ease with her staying over and caring for the pups! The house was immaculate when we returned from a difficult trip. Would definitely recommend Leigh!

Schedule

I am lucky enough to own my own business and my role allows me the flexibility to step away when needed. A lot of my role within the company is on a computer making working from remote locations the perfect scenario for babysitting your fur babies!
