Pet care experience

They'll feel right at home with me!

I don't think anyone can argue that dogs are amazing and wonderful creatures. I have three dogs of my own and they are my favorite living things on the planet. They are very affectionate and great with other dogs and cats, too (they love making new friends!)! Not only am I an animal lover, but I work from home, so you will always have someone available to take care of your fur babies while you can't. I take very good care of my dogs, including my Rottweiler, who is allergic to... Everything, so I am accustomed to medication administration. I will walk your dogs if they're used to that, keep your kitty's litter box spotless, and I will love them as if they were my own. I guarantee they'll be tired and happy from so much fun and affection, and I will treat them as if they were part of my family. As an aside, I love dogs of ALL sizes, and raised all of mine up from puppies, so I'm used to special needs and having to potty train and all that jazz. Your doggos and kitties will be well looked after! ~*~ A note: The settings on Rover unfortunately won't let me adjust per service for distance. Please bear in mind that if you require drop-in or walking service, and are more than ten miles outside of Antigo, a $10 service charge per day will be added for gas and time. Thank you!

Leora was great with my two dogs! One is 14 years old and has a lot of anxiety when we are away. She treated him with kindness, patience, and lots of love. Even though he spent the first few hours yelling at her since she was someone new in the house. The other dog just loves attention, and Leora provided plenty of that! I would definitely book Leora again!

Leora did an amazing job taking care of our kitty and two dogs while we were gone for the week. We have a particular situation where we have to keep a couple of our animals separate, so finding someone who was comfortable with navigating that was important to us. Leora approached it with confidence and that left us feeling so much more at ease when we were away. We will definitely contact her again for our next trip! Thanks Leora :)

This is our fourth time booking with Leora. She takes great care of Otto, Olive, our fish and our home. She is an excellent communicator and very reliable. Our plane was delayed and she stayed longer and was super flexible. She is very helpful - I forgot to do something before I left and she helped me get that done. I am sure we will book with her again for our next travels.

Leora is a professional. She was excellent with my giant breed puppy, who can be a lot! She was trustworthy, left the house picked up; even washed her bedding and took out the garbage! It is nice not to have to worry about your pet or your home when you are gone. We will absolutely use her again!

I need to know general temperament, whether they get along well with other animals (in case of walks), whether they take any regular medications, and whether they have allergies. If your dog is NOT potty trained, please make sure I know your routine for doing so, so I can follow it! Thank you!
