Availability
I’m able to provide your pet with frequent potty breaks, attention, and play time. I’m available for short and longer stays (upon approval) and work on a first book, first served basis. I require evening drop off/pick up times or you can add pick up/drop off which is also provided in the evening. I text pet parents 1-2 days before arrival to firm up my calendar.

Safety, trust & environment
Inside: I keep a very clean, calm, and stable environment for my pet guests to ease anxiety while their parents are away. I have an entire "dog suite" in my home so my pet guests have their own zen-like space to relax, sleep, or pick out something fun to play with from the toy bin. This space has neutral colors, cozy beds, and mood lighting to provide a calming environment and good night sleep. Outside: My home has an outdoor living room space, patio area, doggie pool, as well as a fully-fenced, 1-acre yard where your pet can run zoomies, sunbathe, or explore. The fence is fully secure, the gate is locked day and night, and I have cameras for added security. There is plenty of lighting on the property for evening potty breaks.

Information Leslie E. would like to know about your pet
I love dogs of all sizes and personalities and am experienced with most breeds. Upon your arrival, please just let me know if your dog has a particular feeding schedule, any medical conditions, or any behavioral issues that I need to be aware of.
A typical day
Time I'll spend with your dog: I provide ample opportunities to go outside, play, and give affection. My guests get a nice mix of exercise, mental stimulation, relaxation, and snuggles. Your dog's sleeping arrangement: I prefer you to bring your pet's own bed so they feel more at home, but I do have multiple dog beds and pet blankets for use if needed. I also have a crate available with blankets on top if your dog prefers more of a den environment, or some of my clients choose to bring their own. Activities Available: All my guests have different energy levels, but I believe that all dogs need a daily walk to stay healthy both physically and mentally so I include a daily walk in my boarding fee. My guests enjoy a variety of activities indulding: playing fetch, frisbee, tug of war, wrestling, running zoomies, exporing the yard, swimming, sunbathing, napping, snuggling, watching animal shows, or playing with toys. Some of my dog-friendly clients even enjoy a trip to the dog park on occassion or a hike on the nearby trails if your furry friend is adventurous type like me :) (With owner approval)

Pet care experience
About Me: I have provided 5-star rated pet sitting services since 2004. I have also been a foster mom for rescue dogs for 2 decades, having volunteered for several adoption organizations including GALT, SPCA, MARS, BCAS, Upstate fosters, and the Mega Adoption Event. I study dog behavior and have hands-on experience with a wide variety of breeds. Caring for animals isn’t just a side gig or just something I love - it's my main love. I treat every pet guest as if they were my own, providing attentive, affectionate, and personalized care. Whether your dog needs extra snuggles, structured routines, or special accommodations, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and completely at ease while you’re away—like they’re enjoying their own little staycation 🥰 Why I Love Sitting: I love giving pet parents peace of mind. Knowing you can travel, work, or enjoy time away without worrying about your dog is incredibly rewarding to me. I know when I travel personally, my dog is my number one priority, so I want my clients to be able to relax while they are away and know their pet is great hands. I don’t just care for pets—I make sure they feel relaxed, loved, exercised, and a part of the family throughout their stay here. Meet My Pet I share my home with a senior Xoloitzcuintle (Mexican Hairless) who is my best friend. We do literally everything together. He’s mostly a professional nap-taker, but he's also a great hiker and loyal companion...a job he takes very seriously. I only accect bookings for one client at a time, so Jay will be the only pet in my home during your dog(s) visit. I want to provide a relaxed, personlized experience, not a doggy day care.

Reviews
Leslie was so understanding and flexible when our travel home got delayed. She took care of our Ollie so we didn’t have to worry about him while trying to get home.
Leslie is a hero to us and our GSD. She embraced the unknown of our 7 month old pup and gave us feedback on what we can keep working on, so she can be a great house guest in the future to others. Thanks Leslie!
Leslie is the BEST! We loved her kind, gentle attitude and the love and individual attention she gave Floyd. She welcomed him into her home and treated him like her own. We (and especially Floyd) loved that she took him on hikes every day. We will definitely use Leslie again!
This was our first time using Leslie. She was GREAT! She was so friendly and took wonderful care of our senior dog and sent photos regularly. We will definitely use her again!
