Leslie's Doggie Oasis!

I've been dog obsessed since I was a kid! Unfortunately my three dogs have all passed away within the last two years and so now my husband and I are excited to welcome & work with your pet! While your dog is with me, he/she will be allowed to have free reign of my home as well as doggie door access to a large, fully fenced back yard. Dogs are free to sleep wherever they like- on the couch, floor, my bed- I treat them like they're my own. I also live within half a mile from a well maintained park and make trips there almost daily. While you're away I will keep you updated on your pet's activities in whatever way you prefer including email, text, or FaceTime (yes I know it might seem weird but I did this with my own dogs when I was away so I'd offer you the same). I do recommend a meet-and-greet prior to dog sitting. You would need to be present for this interaction. You must provide proper vaccinations. I require 100% honesty from you and I will be 100% honest and transparent as well. I will always treat your animal with the same respect and loving care that I gave my own animals.

Leslie watched our dog with a seizure disorder who hadn’t had an active seizure in over 6 months. Of course, as soon as we leave town, he has 3 seizures. She handled it like a pro and kept him safe until we got home!

Leslie, her husband and their doggie Gunner provided a great atmosphere for Dalllas while we were out of town. They really went out of their way to treat him like he was part of their family! Leslie provided daily updates on how Dallas was adjusting and cute pics and videos- I felt at ease and relieved that he was able to just be a doggie and not locked up in a kennel. I can’t recommend Leslie enough for providing your pet a safe and loving home away from home for your next getaway. We will definitely e utilizing her services again!

Leslie was amazing! She was so attentive and caring! She went the extra mile over and over, like it was her own baby she was caring for and like a good friend would do for you!

Excellent experience with Leslie. Our Great Pyrenees came home happy with no stress. Leslie did a great job of keeping us informed on Hazels daily activities and shared several pictures. Will definitely check on rebooking her first when we travel in the future.

Schedule

I'm currently available full-time to devote my attention to your pets between walking, cuddling or pet-sitting. I work from home and own my own business so pet-sitting is an easy fit.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a large fenced-in yard and a doggie door. I am comfortable with crate-training puppies & helping them learn proper potty skills. I am also comfortable giving oral and injected medications for animals young and old depending on their medical needs.

Pets

A typical day

I love taking the dogs I watch on new adventures - from exploring the sights and smells at my local park to indoor walks at Lowe's or the pet store when the weather is too hot. When we're at home we can play fetch in the backyard or cuddle on the couch and watch Dog TV - whichever they prefer.

Let me know if your dog has any special needs or requests before their visit. Please let me know if your dog's are food or toy aggressive, nervous around other animals/cats or new people. Please also let me know if your dog is comfortable off-leash or is an 'escape artist' (bolts out the front door or tries to make a break for it when in a fenced yard).
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
