Highlights
Pet care experience
Depending + Responsible dog walker
Your dog’s walk should be the highlight of their day. It’s their time to get outside, explore, and take in all the amazing smells, sights, and sounds the world has to offer. When I’m walking your dog, my focus is completely on them. I don’t wear headphones or earbuds, I don’t walk multiple dogs at once (unless they’re all yours), and I never let dogs off-leash. I choose to be present, attentive, and engaged so your dog has a calm, happy, and safe experience. Dogs have always been a big part of my life. Over the past six years, I’ve fostered 20 dogs through Legacy Rescue in Arlington, and every one of them has taught me something special. I truly love what I do and can’t wait to meet your pup!
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
We are not considering bordering today with Rover. When we have bordered pets in the path, much depends on our familiarity with the dog. Pups that we know and are accident free, we give them run of the house if we are home and are in an enclosed area when we are not home.
Ratings and reviews
Fantastic! Very understanding of my in-laws situation that drove an urgent need for a dog walker. We already booked him again.
Leslie is great. He walks my two dogs, one who is an elderly golden retriever and has difficulty getting up and down and my lab rescue. Leslie is patient with my older dog. This is a big help while I am working.
Leslie is such a wonderful, reliable and trustworthy dog walker. Our rambunctious puppy Pumpkin really loves Les and is always so excited to see him! Pumpkin was quite hyperactive during his last visit, and Les took extra time to care for him and get him settled in our home before leaving. Thank you, Les!
Leslie is very nice - it is easy to communicate with him, he is very accommodating to our rambunctious dog, and he is always on time! It is a pleasure to have him walking our dog, Archie :)
Leslie is great with Pumpkin, so kind and helpful- he has many tips on how to get our puppy to behave as well! Pumpkin is always happy to see him and quite tired after his walks. Thank you, Leslie!
Leslie is great with our dog who can be fearful of strangers. He is walking with our dog on a weekly basis and we are very happy!

Schedule
I am a recently semi-retired and love dogs, so I am pretty flexible. When we are dog sitting or fostering, our dogs get at least two walks per day and as much outdoor time in the yard as possible.
