Availability

I’m currently working from home in marysville with a flexible schedule. In an ideal world I go for a morning and evening walk or run most days of the week. I also have most evenings and weekends free and can work from anywhere on my laptop if you need house-sitting or in-house pet care

Safety, trust & environment

I offer dog walking services (different rates for drop-off vs if I pick them up) of various lengths for all dogs. For boarding my home has a large open living area that can easily be contained for a puppy or dog. I do not have a fenced backyard, but I live a very active lifestyle and am comfortable going for long walks, etc to adapt to your dog’s needs. I have a lot of houseplants, they are not reachable to dogs but boarding is not recommended for cats unless your cat is trained to ignore plants. I do offer cat-sitting (visiting twice a day for food, water, socialization, change the litter once a day, etc).

Information Leona S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any special needs or behaviours. I have some puppy ownership and dog-sitting experience but am not an experienced dog trainer

A typical day

There is a large field by my house, if your dog is well trained and has good recall I could bring them there to play fetch, I also love walking and jogging and live by an extensive trail network including rails to trails and would be happy to take your dog for multiple long walks per day

I just love walking

Pet care experience

I work from home in marysville and enjoy a flexible schedule. My home has a large (unfenced backyard) and there are extensive walking trails and multiple parks nearby. I helped raise a 3 month old puppy for 6 months last year, and my favourite parts of the day were playing with him and taking him for daily walks. I no longer live with that puppy, but I still go for lots of walks and would love a little canine companion.

Leona was great! Very responsive, was able to do a meet and greet and walk Jilly at very short notice! Would definitely book future walks with Leona again :)

Another great pet sitting experience with Leona! Leona took great care of our pup and communicated with us throughout Zoey's time in her care. Leona was patient and caring with our dog, who can be anxious with changes in her routine. By the end of the week our dog was totally in love with Leona! We'd love to book with Leona again and highly recommend her as a conscientious and caring sitter for your fur baby.
