Looking for Opportunities to Help!
My pet/house sitting adventures have taken me across the country, from Oregon to Hawaii to South Carolina. I have cared for a variety of breeds and personalities, from high-energy pups to mellow seniors, and I enjoy getting to know each animal’s unique quirks and routines. Our family absolutely loves animals, but we do not have any of our own. We love welcoming special guests into our home and giving them 100% of our love and attention while they’re with us ❤ We also enjoy caring for pets in their own homes, where they may feel most comfortable. I'm attentive to routines, feeding schedules, and special care instructions, and I’m comfortable with everything from daily walks to medication administration. We’re a blended family with one child (age 14) who lives with us half the time, and two children (ages 8 and 4) who are here full-time. They're gentle and very respectful of animals, and they love to help when families and pets are comfortable with it. Depending on your preferences (and your pet’s comfort level), my kids may join me for some or none of the time. We’re flexible and will prioritize what helps your pet feel relaxed and loved. Thank you for your time!

Ratings and reviews
Leslie and her family were great with Luna! Leslie was very responsive and kept us updated throughout Luna’s stay with regular messages and pictures. She was also happy to help with Luna’s medication and a medical shirt she needed. We felt so comfortable knowing Luna was in such great hands. We would definitely use Leslie again!
Leslie was absolutely amazing with our two Boston Terriers, Gracie and Gus! From the very beginning, it was clear that she truly cares about the dogs she looks after. She took the time to get to know both of them and made sure all their needs were met. I felt completely comfortable leaving them in her care — she kept us updated, and it was obvious that Gracie and Gus were happy, safe, and having the best time. They went on fun adventures and came home relaxed and content. It’s such a wonderful feeling knowing our pups were so well cared for and loved while we were away. We can’t thank Leslie enough and will definitely be booking with her again!
Leslie is the best! So happy to have found her here to take care of my pups.
I can’t say enough good things about Leslie! One of my dogs struggles with anxiety, and she handled it with so much patience, care, and compassion. She took the time to help her feel comfortable, kept me updated with thoughtful messages and photos, and never made me feel like her quirks were a burden. By the end of the stay, she was calm and happy—which is such a relief for me as a dog parent. I truly felt like my dogs were in the best hands possible. I would recommend her to anyone, especially if your pup needs a little extra love and understanding.
Thank you once again!
Leslie took care of my little senior dog Chester when we had to go out of state for a weekend. It was comforting having somebody we could trust and who communicated well with us watch our dog while we were far away. He got to hang and play with her kids too for extra attention. I didn’t worry the entire time we were gone, which is the best feeling!

Schedule
I’ve worked remotely for 14 years, which gives me the flexibility to provide care either in my home or yours. I’m typically available on weekdays and many weekends, too.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We do not have a fenced-in yard, however, our family loves to spend time outdoors and go on walks. We would love to include your pet(s) in our adventures, if you're comfortable with us doing so!
A typical day
We love to explore and live close to the river and a lake. We enjoy daily walks and love to be outdoors. If you're most comfortable with your pet staying at our home, we're okay with that, too!
