Safety, trust & environment

As I am currently limited to house sitting, drop-in visits and dog walking, I tend to set up a meet and greet prior to services to determine requirements for the pets in the client’s home. This includes information about crating, whether the pet(s) are allowed to hang out in the back yard, what routine they have in terms of walks, etc.

Information Leslie S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if there are any special requirements for your pet, such as any allergies to foods they may have, any behaviors to watch out for (especially on walks), and it they have any special needs to watch out for throughout the day.

A typical day

I am on a hybrid work schedule and available to give your pet as much company and stimulation as needed Friday-Monday with some flexibility during the week! I enjoy taking long walks with the pups I care for, taking them to dog parks (if appropriate), and playing fetch!

Dog lover with a flexible schedule!

Pet care experience

I've been working with Rover for over 9 years now boarding, house sitting, and dog walking regularly and have gotten the chance to take care of many different dogs of all sizes and cats as well. I own a Lab-Belgium Malinois mix named Toby, so I am very comfortable caring for high energy pups of all ages.

Leslie is just amazing, and we love having her walk our dogs. She is meticulous about sending updates and photos, and the dogs love her.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
