Pet care experience

Specializing in large breed dogs

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 was very accommodating for our last minute booking and the dogs warmed up to her quickly. Thank you- we plan to work with her again!

Leslie stayed at our home while we traveled for five days. She was fantastic with communicating and sending pictures. Leslie had a calm confident energy so I felt so comfortable leaving our doggo with her. I could truly relax for a few days knowing he was good!

Leslie was always on time, thoughtful, careful and shared a lot of joy with our dog when we got away for a few days. She couldn't have been more together and kind.

Leslie was great to work with! Even the average dog lover might be intimidated by our two Malinois, but not Leslie. She took great care of them.

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.
