I love dogs of all shape and sizes.
Pet care experience
I have worked in two holistic veterinary clinics, handling dogs (and cats… even though I am allergic) during treatment. During my time as a veterinary assistant, I have learned how to holistically care for pets. I have also worked in a pet hotel, taking care of every dog's needs according to the parents' instructions and walking dogs that were not appropriate for daycare groups. I'm used to caring and playing and cuddling with dogs of all different sizes. I have also taken care of nano fishes of my own, small rodents (foster and other clients), and indoor houseplants (I have a collection I'm very proud of). I now have one small dog of my own and he's a Boston Terrier (I used to have a Chihuahua too, RIP my Sweet Pea). He doesn't like other dogs, but my husband and I are always actively training him. While my dog is at home, I'll provide my undivided attention to your pets at their homes. I'll take care of their needs and be sure to give them lots of love (unless they don't want it, then I'll respect their space).
Reviews
Leona is my new gold standard of dog sitters! Absolutely the best. My pittie is anxious, doesn’t get along with other dogs and is often afraid of new people, but not Leona, she loved her immediately! Leona is clearly skilled in reading dog behavior, and so professional, leaving detailed notes and sending photos. Highly recommend!
I cannot say enough amazing things about my experience with Leona. She provided me continuous updates with photos, which made me at ease knowing my pup was in great hands! My pup has a lot of energy and has a lot of quirks; big personality ? Leona handled him so well and wasn’t frustrated with him which was so lovely!! She really cares about dogs. Will absolutely be using her services again (actually already booked her).
Leona was amazing with our fur babies on our wedding night! She sent updates and pictures which we absolutely adored and loved to see! Thank you again Leona for taking good care of our doggies!
Leona’s the best! We can always trust her with our animals when we go out of town.

Safety, trust & environment
Once we do a Meet and Greet and discuss the details of your pets' care, I'll do my best to follow those instructions, whether that's a short romp in the yard or a walk in a nearby park. I'll message you updates and questions, and make sure your pet is taken care of and is safe at home.
Information Leona C. would like to know about your pet
I don't have any breed preferences (but please do tell me, I love to know), but I would like to know the personality of your dog. I find some dogs LOVE EVERYONE while others prefer to be aloof with new people.
A typical day
Depending on the dog, I will walk your pet around the neighborhood and/or play with your dog (whether it is tug of war, fetch, training tricks, etc.) and/or cuddle while reading.

I'm currently working part-time, but I have a flexible schedule where I can come in and do walks and drop-in visits in the middle of the day.
