My dogs play piano. Really!

Pet care experience

My dogs play piano. Really! I’m a full time circus performer and instructor. I love tricks. I truly believe exercise both physical and mental is the key to creating a “best life” for everyone. Doggies make me squeee! I love em’ all. I will give your best friend a face to face (tricks/agility) and side by side (walk) adventure every time we see each other. I have (2) dogs at home both are chihuahuas. Gomez the Great is a showman and has done live performance, commercials and even stared in a short film. His sister Nutmeg is a tripod. We adopted her from Motley Zoo Animal Rescue. She has a sea shanty written about her “Peg Leg Nutmeg The Pirate Chihuahua”. She led the West Seattle Mermaid Parade being carried in a treasure chest by an adoring pirate. Pets are family members. I will treat them like an adoring auntie.

Leslie is amazing with dogs. She adopted my very loved foster pup and has given her and her pup brother such an amazing life. Leslie had the patience to bring this little scared baby the confidence she needed to live a full and happy social dog life thanks to her "dog awareness" and intuition. Her love and passion for dogs shows and any dog that gets a moment of her time is lucky indeed. If she lived closer, we would hire her for our 3 dogs in a heart beat.

Leslie is the most responsible and loving person, not just dog caregiver. She is just fantastic in every way, I am honored to call her my friend. I have an wonderful Chihuahua that is the light of my life so I don't trust just anyone to care for him (in fact, I can count on one hand who I trust). Just to watch her interact, love and care for all dogs; Leslie is tops on my list to watch my dog Peter. She has even helped me teach that old dog a trick through positive reinforcement (and a couple of treats of course). In short, she is just wonderful. Thank you, Christopher

Leslie is a loving person and that includes her care of animals! I trust her with my Pomeranian, Timmy, and that says a great deal! The care of her own dogs, Gomez and Nutmeg , should be a testament to her ability to care for dogs! Gomez was gently trained to do circus tricks with Leslie. He is a small dog and seems a little anxious when I am with him. But when Leslie is with him and when he is "working on tricks" with her he shines and struts his stuff like he is a powerful Great Dane! Nutmeg is a dog with special needs having survived abuse and now has three legs. Nutmeg travels widely and confidently with her best friend, Leslie. Anyone would be lucky to have Leslie in their dog care circle! I wish we lived closer! - Jacqui

I've personally known Leslie for over seven years and she is one of the kindest and most loving souls I know. We both have Chihuahuas and she has taken care of my dog countless times while I've been out of town. She has a deep love of animals and goes above and beyond in taking care and training her own dogs. I trust her immensely with my little Lolita and I highly recommend Leslie as a dog walker for Rover!
