Pet care experience

Animals > Humans any day!

I’ve had the privilege of being exposed to and interacting with animals of all shapes and sizes for my entire life. To me, every creature deserves love - especially our furry (or not) family members. No matter what the animal or pet may be. Throughout the last 20+ years, I’ve cared for cats, dogs, rabbits, birds, geckos, turtles, fish, and countless animals that I’ve crossed paths with. I’ve even rescued and rehabilitated a ladybug! I have over 5 years of experience with administering subcutaneous fluids via injections and have no issue administering medication orally as well. I’ve cared for special needs animals on many occasions and am comfortable with providing care for both physical and health related needs. I personally understand how difficult it is to have to leave your pets at home, especially when circumstances require another level of care. I understand that each pet is unique with their own personalities; I am prepared for anything and everything from a lap lover to a house hider. I welcome the opportunity to take care of your pets and assure you that your furry family members will be in good hands. Please feel free to ask any questions!

Safety, trust & environment

I make sure that we’re on the same page from the start - I need to have all the information that I would expect someone caring for my pet to have. We can discuss everything accordingly, but I’ll make sure I have all the details, including (but not limited to) allergies, hazards, feeding, medications, or what to do in case of an emergency. I have on hands the number of the animals vet as well as the local emergency vet in case it’s after hours or owners can be reached.

Leigh is amazing!!! I would absolutely recommend her to anyone. She took immaculate care of my dog, and I could tell he was loved, safe, and happy the entire time. She went above and beyond—sending me updates, being super responsive, and treating him like her own. I had complete peace of mind while I was at work, and I’ll definitely be booking with her again!

Dog Walking • aug. 27, 2025

Leigh was great. I was able to be there at the start of the walk, and Leigh asked great questions about what commands my dog knew and what my walk preferences were. She was patient with my dog (who is a puppy) and since they stayed on my property at my request, I was able to watch Leigh play with my puppy outside. Leigh did a great job, and I have asked her to walk my dog on a more regular basis as a result.
