Safety, trust & environment

I have an enormous walled yard, the main reason I bought this house as I had two big dogs then. I have a medium doggy door that every dog has managed to get through. Mini has a zoomy track out there. My dogs have always slept with me & so can yours if that’s what they are used to. If they sleep in a crate they will be in the bedroom with us.

Information Lesley B. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs.. I’ve had to hand feed a few dogs until they are used to being here.

A typical day

Mini will keep your dog busy playing if they want to. She loves to be chased. My yard is like a dog park. I wil play fetch & throw the frisbee. We usually walk at Reid Park or on the loop.

Pet care experience

Only one doggy family at a time. I want to be able to give them the attention they need when they are away from their family & I don’t want to overwhelm my Mini. She’s very friendly & tolerant & loves all dogs & people. I’m retired & home most of the time which means I can do constant care for an extra price. I've helped dogs give birth, nursed them when they were sick and held them when they were put to sleep. I can administer medicine and give shots. I have lots of experience training puppies & I have nursed my own senior dogs at the end of their lives.

Leslie is wonderful. I always know my little dogs are safe and loved when they are with her. She has the perfect setup for my babies, too.

Luna loves her visits with Lesley and Mini. She is always so happy and relaxed and I am able to work without worry. Thank you Lesley!

I cannot say enough good things about Lesley and the care she gave to my sweet 15.5 year old pug. She sent picture updates daily and Chimy was clearly loving life! I was nervous about leaving him with someone for almost 2 week at this age, but everything was fantastic. He even uses a doggie wheelchair and Lesley handled that great as well. I felt good and Chimy clearly felt good! Thank you Lesley!! We will definitely have you care for our sweet pug and other future pets again.

Our very timid dog has struggled to endure previous boarding periods. We brought her home from Lesley's house calm and relaxed back into her home life with no stress or anxiety. I will be booking her next visit when I finish the review. My only possible concern is that she was extremely thirsty when she got home and I don't know if she was unwilling to drink from the communal water bucket but she doesn't drink from the water at the dog park but she is uneasy about everything there! I am really impressed with Lesley and her way with dogs and feel more comfortable with her and her care than any other person we've met.
