Your Best Friend's New Best Friend

Pet care experience

I've been working with all manner of animals since I was nine years old and I learn something new everyday! From volunteering at nature centers, mentoring with certified dog trainers, working at pet stores, veterinary clinics, and shelters, and having my own pets here at home, animals of all kinds are my one constant passion in life. I've taught classes for puppies and young dogs and just recently began working with local TNR programs to protect feral cats and the city of Wichita. I regularly pick up strays and return them to their homes, which is either proof of my big heart or my gullibility for cute animals, depending on who you ask! I've also worked with reptiles, amphibians, rodents, and, on a particularly memorable occasion, insects. That was an interesting job! Pet care is my full time job so with enough notice, I can meet any scheduled need! I can't wait to hear from you and find out if I'm a good fit for your family. We're all more comfortable in our own homes than someone else's, and that often goes for our pets, too! I'm happy to visit your home several times a day or to stay overnight, whichever you prefer. In my experience, those two situations make for happier pets and families, but I do have a home that is pet-friendly and am able to meet any requirements you find necessary for the care of your fur-kid.

We are very pleased that Leigh took care of Dayse. On a daily basis, Leigh sent pictures and kept us informed on how things were going. And based on the pictures we saw and knowing our cat, we know Dayse was comfortable with Leigh. We highly recommend Leigh as a pet sitter.

Leigh is an amazing house/pet sitter. She took the extra time to get to know our anxious dog which made me feel so comfortable when she stayed. I would recommend Leigh to anyone needing a sitter. She is the very best.

Leigh took such good care of our puppy. She sent lots of pictures and updates which made us so happy to know he was being well taken care of. We will definitely be using her for all future get always. We definitely recommend Leigh for anyone who wants their fur babies taken care of.

Leigh is the best pet sitter you could ever hope for! She’s kind and attentive and my dog and my roommates’ cats adore her! I got pictures/videos every step of the way. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my baby! 100 stars

Information Leigh Z. would like to know about your pet

I want to know all about your pets! What is their routine, their favorite toys and activities, how can I help them through storms? When we go on walks, should they greet their neighbors or wave from afar? What motivates them to learn new things, food or toys or love and attention? Can they get up on the furniture or do I have to sit on the floor for cuddles? I want to know!

A typical day

Every dog needs physical AND mental exercise! I love to explore new places around town to walk and your dog will love sniffing in populated areas and quiet parks. Back at home, we can play with your pet's favorite toys and learn new tricks - with judicious use of food and treats! I even have a few puzzle toys from home that I like to bring with me for pets to try out and am always experimenting with frozen DIY toys that they can work on during alone/kennel times.
