Safety, trust & environment

I'm great at reading animal body language, and even better at spoiling. I meet them where they're at, and give them the space to be themselves, while also stepped by my foot down gently if necessary. I had to put down my girl Oreo last year after 16 amazing years together, and have been missing her a lot lately. Unfortunately I'm not in a place to get another dog at this time, but I thought what a great idea it would be to hang out with other pets.

Leon really takes the time to care for my 3 cats! They usually take time to warming up to people but they took a liking to him after a couple days. I have cats that have quirky needs and prefer specific things, and he was able to accommodate all of those things! I 10/10 do recommend! 🙂

Leon was awesome — very attentive and went above and beyond to care for our animal when she got sick when we were out of town. Would highly recommend!

Leon is the absolute best, and I highly recommend booking with him!!! He went above and beyond taking care of my puppy while I was out of town! My pup has always been wary of others, but they clicked instantly. This had been my first time using Rover and really hit the jackpot with him! I will mostly definitely continue to request him. Thanks again for everything!

We are beyond grateful for the incredible care you gave our two dogs while we were away. From the moment we left, we had complete peace of mind knowing they were in such loving and capable hands. You treated them like they were your own—making sure they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for every single day. We truly appreciated the updates, photos, and attention to their routines and personalities. It was clear how much you genuinely care about animals, and our dogs absolutely adored you. Coming home to two relaxed, happy pups said everything. Thank you for going above and beyond—we couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter and would wholeheartedly recommend you to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and dependable.

Leon is so wonderful with my doggo. He treats her like his own and she loves him. He’s gentle and kind and is so patient. He’s definitely a dog whisperer and knows how to be gentle with my Elsie girl. I trust him completely with watching her while I’m out of town. 100% recommend Leon for any pet needs.

I've known Leon for the better part of the past 2 decades, and have seen just how compassionate, empathetic, kind, considerate, and loving he is to a multitude of dogs--whether they are his own puppies or other people's cherished pup! He is incredible responsible and loving toward all pets and creatures alike and will make a tremendously good Rover pet-carer.
