Leslie was an amazing dog sitter! She took such great care of my pup and kept me completely at ease by sending regular pictures and updates. It was clear my dog was happy, comfortable, and well-loved the entire time. I really appreciated her communication and kindness. I will definitely be booking with Leslie again—highly recommend!

Leslie was outstanding - again. Our little sweet Lily is so timid and is very attached to her family. But we are not at all concerned when we leave her with Leslie. She takes great care of Lily and tries to make her feel at home and extra special. Book Leslie- you will not be disappointed.

We are so grateful to find such a wonderful place for our little dog Chip while we are away. Leslie (and her home) is so warm and welcoming. Chip loves staying with her and she always sends cute pictures. Thank you for loving and caring for Chip as much as we do. We are so happy knowing he is in good hands.

After trying to find someone to watch our dogs during Christmas vacation, we lucked out and found Leslie. She is wonderful with dogs and provides great updates, hilarious insights, and fun photos. We knew our dogs were well taken care of while we were out of state and could rest easily. Thank you so much, Leslie!
