Loving and respectful sitter

Pet care experience

I am an animal lover and would love to give your pets the loving care they deserve in your absence! I have had pets my entire life of all kinds. I have boarded pets in my home off and on for years. I have previously worked for a pet walking and sitting service. I will keep your dogs or cats safe and happy at all times. I will accept your calls to check on your pet at any time as well as provide pictures if requested. I am happy to accommodate any special requests or medications your pet may need. I am an animal lover and will make sure that you feel comfortable leaving your pet with me. I have a 12 year old house trained, mild mannered chihuahua mix who accompanies me on my house sitting jobs.

Lesley took great care of Egan and Prunella once again! Our dogs were so excited to see her even though it had been several months - a testament to how kind she must have been to then during their last time together. We are thankful that we can rely on Lesley to ensure our pups are happy and comfortable!

Lesley was so wonderful with Egan and Prunella. She made sure they were happy and loved. We can tell they enjoyed their time with her and her little dog Buddy. We received plenty of pictures and updates, too. Our house was so clean when we returned, which we appreciated. We would absolutely have Lesley stay with them again. Thank you!

My two dogs had a great time during their short stay at Lesley's! I would not hesitate to use her again for my dog sitting needs.

I had a bad experience less than a month ago & was extremely hesitant to seek out a new sitter. Lesley met me & Khloe & it eased all my fears. Lesley asked great questions/suggestions (bring a blanket, allow her 5mins alone with my dog on the visit to see how she will do without me present, etc.). Lesley communicated daily and sent pictures. She was extremely helpful in getting me comfortable & willing to trust again. I am already planning my next trip where Khloe will stay with Lesley again.
