Safety, trust & environment

I can handle any size dog and any age pets. I’m reliable to adhere to your pet’s need and schedule. I know the importance of being outside every day and of providing a consistent and enhanced life experience for our pets.

Information Leslie G. would like to know about your pet

It would be helpful to know how they do on lead, any health or anxiety concerns they have, and anything that would require special care.

A typical day

I walk and hike every day with our dogs and have been doing that since we got our first dog 21 years ago. I have a huge yard along the river with lots of room to run, play, and explore. Our dogs get to run and play in the woods and river regularly.

Pet care experience

I'm an empty nester specializing in large breed dog care (along with everything in between❤️) I offer early morning, late night, and weekend availability and lots of flexibility. I have over 20 years of regular early morning walks with my own dogs and my clients’ pets. I understand and value the importance of being outside with our best friends. Our pets are part of our family and would treat yours the same. I currently have two Shiloh Shepherds, Echo and Arya, along with my “Granddog”, Zorah, a Labrador Retriever/Great Pyrenees mix, with all three of them weighing over 100 pounds. I treat them with the best care and travel with them whenever I can. I have a home in the woods with 13 acres along the Monocacy River. It is a dog heaven for our pets where we hike, walk, and play in the water and in our the woods every day. I have cared for my own family dogs for the past 21 years, with my first dog being a German Shepherd. They are a blessing to our family just as yours is to you!! I am attentive, flexible, and consistent, making me a confident dog (and cat) handler. Having confidence as a pet care provider allows me work with you to love and care for your pets so that when you need to be away from home, they are still peaceful, safe, and well-loved.

Leslie is wonderful! I’m so glad that we found her- she takes such great care of our dog while we are at work and I always appreciate her detailed updates after her visits with him. I would love to work with her again in the future!

Leslie is wonderful! I feel so much better knowing that our newly adopted dog has a break from the crate while we are at work. I love seeing the photos and detailed updates after her visits.
