Experienced with any/unique dogs

Pet care experience

Throughout my whole life, I’ve cared for many dogs, with the addition of cats. We have had many dogs in various sizes. Most of these dogs my family and I owned were either born with or developed a sickness, a disease, infections they were easily susceptible to, digestive issues or allergies and required medicine in the forms of pills, shots, powders and liquids. Caring for my animals and their specific needs made me very experienced how to care for unique dogs and cats while caring for our other healthy dogs and cats at the same time. I love putting their needs first and live to make sure all dogs, old and young, are always happy and comfortable. It is very important to me that I always keep a healthy relationship between both dogs and cats and myself so they feel settled and comfortable no matter what. I am also a huge animal rescuer. I made my first rescue when I was just 7 years old and fell in love with either reuniting lost animals with their families or giving them a wonderful and loving home with a family looking for an animal to complete their home or a place in mine. My family and I currently have 3 rescue dogs living with us and our other 3, we adopted. To me, it’s the little things that bring my heart so much joy. I absolutely love watching all my animals enjoy the walking adventures we take them on and the play time they have together. Who needs a TV when you have their hilariousness right there in front of you to watch? That’s my type of entertainment.

Lesley is AWESOME!!! I have so many good things to say about her! She is, by far, the best pet sitter I have ever used. She is honest, enthusiastic, caring, responsive, responsible and just all around a phenomenal person. She watched our 17 year old, deaf/blind diabetic mini schnoodle for 4 nights at our house. She sent updates with pics & videos every day and made sure we knew he was ok. I appreciate that so much as we had a horrible experience with a different sitter last time. Lesley put my mind at ease so I could enjoy time away. Everyone on vacation with us looked forward to Lesley’s pics & updates! She’s so upbeat and funny. When we got home, our pup was sleeping peacefully. I could tell he was not stressed and was well cared for. The house was clean and everything was in order. She even washed the sheets, ran the dishwasher and took out the garbage, which I did not expect! I will not hesitate to book Lesley again in the future!

Lesley was amazing! Our dogs fell in love with her immediately and were so sad when she left! She is by far the best dog sitter we’ve had!

Information Lesley N. would like to know about your pet

I would love to know if owners have specific diets or exercising routines for their pets so I can make sure I can provide my best care for them and meeting their needs. I love all breeds and all sizes, young and old!

A typical day

I absolutely love playing with dogs! Whether they have their favorite toy or loves running through the water hose, or loves chasing a ball in the yard, I will play until they are warn out. When it’s time for walks, I really enjoy taking them through their neighborhood and to the parks that have nice walking trails, such as Halyburton Park or what used to be known as Hugh McRae Park.
