Loving human for furbabies ❤️
Pet care experience
My name is Leilanie :) I am serious about the wellbeing of dogs and cats, as I love the cuddly creatures and I exude happiness and positive energy when I’m around them. I have always been around dogs ever since I was a young child, as my family have always been avid dog lovers. There was even one point in time, when I was living with my father, that we owned five beautiful dogs that lived happily in the apartment with us. Currently I now live with my mother, and I own a 11 year old Shih Tzu named Khaleesi, whom I got in 2012 and am the primary caregiver for. Every single day I wake up at 6 am to feed her, then take her out for a 30 minute walk (Khaleesi is now blind but she's still the sweetest pupper and it's really taught me more about special needs dogs) I’ve also worked at three doggy daycares named Dog Days and Cat Nights, Dog Island City, and Doggedly Devoted, at which I was both a dog walker and dog handler and worked for nearly a year at all three. I’ve also worked at a Kennel, Doggy Be Good (moreover I've been doing Wag and Rover since late 2018) Additionally, I’ve volunteered at two pet shelters in Manhattan (Best Friends and Animal Haven, I learned how to administer medication to special needs dogs here and gained valuable weight experience with senior dogs) providing a level of care and occasionally walking groups of dogs, so I am quite experienced with dog-walking and supervision. I’ve also interacted with and took care of cats here. I am an extremely focused individual who always pays attention to my surroundings, and will always keep your dogs and cats in my line of sight (and will be happy to do so) ❤️ -In June of 2022 I adopted my own little kitty who I named Beans! He’s very friendly with dogs as he grew up with them. He’s also friendly with other cats but he hasn’t spent as much time with other cats as he does with dogs. I’m usually free unless I have in person classes at college. I will communicate the dates and times of my classes. I do usually require at least a night before notice before a booking, and a request made less than 5 hours before will incur a $15 fee. Any daycare request that is 12 hours or more I charge as a boarding. At my place I let the them have at it with the myriad of toys I have, and me and my dog keep your baby company :) we play if they’re energetic and lounge around on the couch watching a TV show or movie if they’re lazy/tired 🤍 I take them out on plenty of walks and I also have a gated yard that connects to my building that they can run around in. At a client's home I follow the instructions given to me and whenever possible I’ll get creative with activities!
Reviews
Our dog was very well taken care of, and Leilanie shared lots of updates during the stay. Thank you!
Leilanie was an amazing sitter for my two kitties! Super dependable, and great communication. My cats can be sometimes difficult with the litter box, so I really appreciated her going the extra mile to cleanup.
Leilani took care of our big 4 month b goldendoodle puppy perfectly. My puppy even had an accident at her home and she was so graceful about it. She kept me in the loop with the pups eating progress and sent pictures throughout the day. Thank you Leilani, we’ll certainly be seeing you again very soon.
Leilanie is a 10/10!! This woman not only did her job, but went above and beyond for myself and my furbabies. Leilanie excepted our pets sitting request last minute, which was caused due to a crisis I was having at my apartment. She was very kind and quick to respond. The first day, she helped me carry my three very large cats up 5 flights of stairs. Each day she sent updates on the cats. She was very responsive and kind. She did her very best to make my furbabies feel at home. Thank you again <3

I let dogs free roam in my apartment. If your dog is crate trained, I crate as needed. For house sittings I follow any given instructions.
Home
Information Leilanie G. would like to know about your pet
I can handle dogs of any size. I need to know if your dog is aggressive or doesn’t do well around other dogs. Also need to know if your dog is trained to do business on a wee-wee pad or goes outside. If your dog has any food sensitivities or allergies, or is on a restrictive diet, please let me know.
A typical day
There a multiple parks around me, both regular and dog parks. I often go on walks and jogs and will take your dog with me so he/she can get in a bit of exercise too ;) I have a small Shih Tzu at home named Khaleesi, she’s very sweet and can be your dog’s new little buddy. I have a lot of different dog toys around my apartment your dog can play with and an array of different food and treats. Your doggy will be supervised 24/7, as my mother or I are constantly home.
