Welcome Pet Parents! Thank you for visiting my profile! Before we begin, there are a few important details I’d like to share so that you and your pet can have the best experience possible. Important Requirements Vaccinations: All pets must be up to date on their vaccinations before booking. A current vaccination record must be sent to my email prior to the start of the stay. Bookings cannot be confirmed without proof of vaccinations. Flea Treatments: Due to a severe allergy, I am unable to care for dogs or cats currently using topical flea medications, including drops, creams, or flea collars. Crating Policy: Dogs will be crated when I am not home. Breed Restrictions: I am unable to accept large bully breeds in my home due to homeowner’s insurance restrictions. However, I am happy to provide services at your home if it is within my travel area (see below). Cat Care Policy (Important): I do not accept cats for care in my home. However, I am available to travel to pet parents’ homes to provide cat care services, including feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, companionship, and lots of tender loving care. Travel Areas: I can travel to the following locations: Antelope, Fair Oaks, Carmichael, Citrus Heights, Elverta, Folsom, Orangevale, Rancho Cordova, Rio Linda, and Sacramento. My Faith & Purpose As a Christian pet sitter, I draw inspiration from one of my favorite scriptures: “The righteous care for the needs of their animals.” — Proverbs 12:10 This verse is at the heart of how I care for every pet entrusted to me. I believe that through this work, I am fulfilling my purpose and calling. While I don’t currently have a dog of my own, I’ve been a lifelong dog owner and have cared for four dogs over the years. My most recent companion sadly passed away on 05/01/2026 after living a long and happy life, just like my previous dogs. The dog pictured on my profile is my previous pet, Gorgeous, who meant so much to me and will always hold a special place in my heart. Pet Stay Requirements Please review the following conditions before booking: Dogs must be picked up before the 24-hour mark, per Rover policy. If a stay exceeds this time, Rover may charge an additional $19 per dog. I may waive this if the delay is due to my schedule. All dogs must be dog-friendly. For stays of two weeks or more, a complimentary 3-day trial stay is required to ensure compatibility and safety. Please bring enough food for your pet’s entire stay (plus a little extra). Leftover food will be returned. All dogs must have a collar and ID tag with owner information. Dogs must be comfortable being crated I accept large dogs that are leash-trained and calm (no high-energy dogs, please, due to back issues). I do not accept dogs under 8 weeks old. Drop-in visits for cats or dogs at your home are available. All pets must be house-trained or puppy-pad-trained. Medications should be clearly labeled in separate Ziploc bags for morning (AM) and evening (PM) doses. No retractable leashes please; I provide standard leashes. A meet and greet at least one week before booking is preferred to ensure comfort and compatibility. Upon arrival, all guests will be asked to review and sign a Daycare Agreement and complete an information form. Hours, Availability & Pricing Pick-Up & Drop-Off Coordination: Please call or text to coordinate pick-up and drop-off times in advance If I don’t answer your call immediately, please call back once or leave a message—I’ll respond as soon as possible. Drop-in Visits: $24 per pet (dogs or cats, at your home) While gratuities are never required, they are sincerely appreciated (Cash is preferred). About Me & My Home I’ve dedicated my life to caring for animals. My background includes grooming experience, work at PetSmart, and time spent at the Chula Vista Animal Shelter. I also volunteered at the SPCA. Though I once dreamed of becoming a veterinarian, God guided me toward this fulfilling career as a professional pet sitter. My home is pet-friendly, fenced, and equipped with crates, blankets, beds, bowls, and toys. Please bring only essential items, as I have everything your pet might need. Every guest in my home receives the same love and care as I strive to make every pet feel loved, safe, and at home. Please note: I reserve the right to decline any booking at my discretion. Thank you for taking the time to read my profile. I look forward to meeting you and your precious pet soon! Warm regards, Leslee Sue Cowling Professional Pet Sitter
