Your Dog’s New Best Friend
I'm a lifelong animal lover from Wilmington, Delaware, and after retiring from 34 years in education, I decided to follow my heart and spend more time with animals. I've had all kinds of pets over the years—dogs, cats, even horses—so I know just how much they mean to us. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to have someone reliable, kind, and caring looking after your pets (and your home) when you can’t be there. Whether it's a walk around the block, playtime in the yard, or just some company while you're away, I'm here to make sure your furry family members feel safe, happy, and loved.

I will visit your pets as requested. They will be walked responsibly and I will ensure they have fresh water and treats if allowed. If requested I will bring in the mail and any delivered packages.
Ratings and reviews
Leslie was a great fit for Duchess! She communicated and let me know updates on Duchess which made me feel comfortable and know Duchess was in great hands. Leslie stayed overnight with Duch and was so neat and clean I feel like I came home to a place nicer than when I left it! I highly recommend Leslie for your fur baby!!
Leslie was very attentive to our dog and asked great questions during the meet and greet. Our dog loved her and they had a great time together!
If I could give Leslie six stars I would. I felt comfortable as soon as she came through the door at the meet and greet. She’s great with the dogs, her communication is clear, professional, kept us updated throughout the day with texts and photos and took great care of the house. I’m looking forward to continuing to book with Leslie.
Leslie was so wonderful- I haven’t left my 3 little guys without family in over 10 years. They are very nervous little guys and have some quirks - she made it all work and made them feel safe. Sent me pictures and updates 2-3 times a day. I could not be more grateful!
Leslie was amazing! She stayed at my house for a whole week with my two dogs. She kept me informed numerous times of the day. My dogs loved her and my house was in great order when I got home! I felt so comfortable with Leslie’s care! I will definitely book her again! She is very professional, respectful and kind:)
Leslie was a wonderful sitter! She cared for our dog, three cats and home while we were away. She was very flexible and patient as we had an issue with one of our cats who was scared and didn’t want to eat. She tried my suggestions and was successful in winning him over! Our dog also requires some time to get used to a new person. Leslie was followed my suggestions and won her over as well. She left the house tidy like it was when we left. Leslie is responsible, caring and above all reliable. It is a leap of faith to allow someone to take care of your most prized possessions and I am glad I placed it in her! We will definitely use her services in the future!

I am retired after 34 years in education and have a flexible schedule that can meet your pets daily needs- morning, noon or night. Additionally, I have lived in the area my entire life so I am very familiar with the neighborhoods.
