Nature lover. Dog friendly office.

Pet care experience

- Absolutely love getting to know individual dogs and their unique personality, preferences, and quirks. - Enjoy training dogs and stimulating them through learning tricks, cues, and problem solving. - Lived with and cared for an aging 13 yr old maltese poodle for half a year - Have fostered several rescue dogs that were mistreated in their past - Availability can be flexible, especially for dog owners that are local and a good match - Happy to accommodate any needs with respect to schedule given an advance notice - I have a background in bioengineering and biomimicry (an approach to innovation that seeks sustainable solutions to human challenges by emulating nature’s time-tested patterns and strategies). So naturally my brain is wired to be curious and attentive.. I'm drawn to really connecting with dogs.

We have had excellent Rover sitters in the past, but wow, Leon is on a whole other level! If we could give him more than 5 stars, we would! We loved all the pictures and videos he sent of our dog, Lola, throughout her stay with him. Lola got plenty of exercise with him at the dog park, and you could tell from the pictures and videos that she was having a great time with him! Lola can be very timid when she meets new people, but she warmed up to Leon fast. We will absolutely have Leon dog sit Lola again, he went above and beyond not only in his care for her, but to make us feel comfortable as well.

Leon is THE BEST! He's responsive, communicative, timely, and treated our Maisy like the princess she is. We received daily text and video updates from him while we were away on vacation, which helped US relax and was greatly appreciated. I am so grateful that we found Leon. He's a good-hearted person who I can trust with our dogbaby :)

This is Chewie’s third stay with Leon. Outside of my family, there is no one whom I would trust more to take good care of my pup. He is an amazing person—perceptive, responsible, and communicative, and the way that Chewie greeted him, with furious butt wiggles and nose pokes, shows what a loving and attentive caretaker Leon was while I was gone. I also want to thank Leon for all the hilarious pics and videos that he sent throughout Chewie’s stay! They made my day each time :D! I can’t thank him enough for everything he does for my dear little pup!!!
