I'll love them like they're my own!

Pet care experience

I have been an animal lover for the duration of my life. I have 20 years of experience pet sitting and dog walking. I just lost my own 9 year old cattle dog mix furbaby who had multiple special needs at the end of her life. I’m experienced and comfortable meeting special needs. I’m highly intuitive, observant and compassionate. I have fostered a dog aggressive dog in the past also. I worked closely with a behaviorist and was able to integrate her into a pack of 3 dogs successfully. I have volunteered with the Humane Society and a wildlife rescue and rehabilitation facility. I completed an internship learning dog grooming as well. I have experience with blind dogs as well as administering medications (both oral and subcutaneous injections). Your pets will be in extremely capable and loving hands with me. I will treat them with the same loving kindness that I extended to my own furbaby. I have a small fenced and secure yard with a dog door. I work an 8-5 Monday-Friday job.

Leslie did a wonderful job caring for my dog. She gave her lots of pets, walks, and love — and gave this doggie mom tons of pics of their time together!

Leslie is amazing! She was able to squeeze me into her schedule with very short notice. My dog, Venus, really likes her. You can tell that Leslie honestly cares about animals - she's intuitive, thorough, responsive, and professional! Such a great experience! I'm looking to her being Venus' pet sitter, walker, and friend.

Leslie has sat for my dogs several times... she's my number one go-to for dog sitting as she has a clear love for animals and always takes the best care of them. I so appreciate being able to be away knowing she is there to care for them :) thanks, Leslie!!

Leslie was amazing from the moment we met. You can see how much she loves animals. She is very professional and works with your specific needs. She stayed at our house with our fur babies and kept me updated with cute pictures throughout our trip. When you see your puppy cuddling with Leslie on the couch, you know she is content. I would recommend Leslie to anyone looking for a pet sitter.
