I’m an experienced pet and house sitter based in San Luis Obispo, and I’m happy to travel up to 60 miles for a sit. Because I work from home part time, I can devote plenty of time and attention to your pets. My daily routine revolves around their needs — walks, playtime, meals, and lots of love and affection.

Information Leslie L. would like to know about your pet

I like to know as much as possible about your pet’s routines, preferences, and any special needs. Please share details about their feeding schedule, favorite activities, personality quirks, and how they interact with other dogs. If they have medical conditions, medications, or behavioral triggers, I want to know in advance so I can provide the best, safest care possible.

A typical day is all about keeping your dog happy, active, and loved. I’ll take them to their favorite spots—whether that’s a beach romp, a park adventure, or a leisurely neighborhood walk. We’ll play fetch, enjoy cuddle time, and stick to whatever activities you prefer to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for.

Leslie was very caring with Kona and Copper. She communicated well and sent pictures during her stay. She left everything tidy and both dogs happy. Thank you, Leslie.

Leslie took great care of my animals and home, and I already have her booked for another sit. My horses, cats, dogs, chickens, and geese were in perfect shape and happy upon my return, and my house was spotless. While I’d worried a little about Leslie having Benny, her dog, I was so pleased with how gentle he was, and what a nice companion he was for my dog. Benny was a complete gentleman! Leslie was super responsive when I checked in, and shared adorable pics of my “kids”. It made me extra comfortable that Leslie has a lot of horse and dog experience and knows how to keep them safe and healthy. I really trust Leslie and feel good about her overseeing my property when away. Leslie was fantastic. My animals knew her from last time and they didn’t miss me at all. Leslie kept me informed of things and sent me just the perfect amount of messages and photos. I liked that she asked me questions having to do with the welfare of my animals (dogs, 2 horses, 2 cats, 2 geese, 8 chickens), edging on the conservative side, to be sure that they’re taken care of superbly. I feel 100% secure knowing that my home and beloved pets are in her care. Leslie is a trusted pet sitter to be fought over!

Leslie is like the dog whisperer. She’s gentle and kind with all animals, especially dogs and cats (horses too). She’s also an excellent trainer. We have used her to take care of our 2 dogs many times while away, as well as for daily walks, and she’s always been reliable and great with our pets. We highly recommend her. She’s wonderful!
