Loving Pet Sitter, Flexible Hours

From puppies to seniors, I understand the unique joys and needs of each chapter. My experience is with pets of all sizes, ages, and personalities, from helping friends and neighbors with their cats and dogs, previously working part-time for a dog daycare in Seattle and volunteering at a dog shelter. I’m lucky to call a 13-year-old labrador retriever my family, and love helping him live his best life on Bainbridge Island. We’ve gone from all-day hikes bursting with energy and zoomies to leisurely strolls with stops to savor all the smells – I celebrate each phase. Whether you need a reliable dog walker or someone to make sure your cat is safe and happy while you’re away, you can count on me.

Safety, trust & environment

You can count on me to treat your pets like family. I understand the importance of feeling that your pets are safe, happy and well-cared for when away. I know the comfort of receiving messages and photos from a trusted pet sitter, and knowing your dog is in good hands. You can trust that I’ll follow your routines and communicate regularly. Providing reliable and positive care is my priority.

House Sitting • Dec 11, 2025

We are so happy we found Leslie! Our dogs are super sweet but nervous with new people so tend to hide and be scared. Not with Leslie! They warmed up to her so quickly and were snuggling away the entire weekend. She has a natural calm demeanor with dogs and totally respects and reads their needs. She sent photos, communicated quickly, and left our house cleaner than it was. Couldn't be happier, when normally it can be quite stressful to leave them. Thank you Leslie!

Schedule

I have a flexible schedule and I live centrally on Bainbridge. I’m happy to spend time with your dogs, based on their needs and schedule. Whether they are super active and want to go, go, go, or if they like to take their time and smell the world, or if they want to relax together, I’d love to provide them with care and extra happiness in their day.

Let me know if your dog has any specific needs and behaviors that I can account for. It’s helpful to know their typical routine as far as activity level and overall goals for their walks/visits. Thank you!
