Safety, trust & environment

I generally feed my doggie twice a day when I'm back home, and walk him about three times a day. With clients, I am willing to do whatever schedule works for your pet, as well as walk a route they're familiar with. For kitties, I generally leave dry food out during the day and put together a nice wet food dinner. I clean the litter box every other day or so.

Information Leyla T. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog or cat is shy or reserved so I can pace accordingly, if they have trouble with certain genders, or any known health issues or special needs. For house stays, I do not book for pets that are not potty trained (unless they are puppies)!

A typical day

I love playing catch and going on hikes with dogs, playing laser and feather toy with cats, and giving lots of snuggles! For doggie play time, I'll tug on ropes, do some wrestling with the larger dogs, and toss their favorite chew toys.

Pet care experience

Though I have a little Beaglier of my own back home named Pippin, I have quite a bit of experience with backcountry sled dog care! I've learned to do wound and joint care on multi-day expeditions, break up fights and make sure we all get home safe. In the front country, I've helped train my little dog while growing up!

Thank you for helping me and my wife while we were enjoying are vacation. Your quick response and updates put are mind at ease knowing you were watching Kane and midnight. Lastly, thanks for the treat you left Kane it’s already gone.

We were disappointed with Leyla. She stretched herself too thin with too many bookings at once and forgot to check in out dogs for close to 12 hours.

Leyla is very reliable and so kind! My dog looks forward to her walks with them. It’s so nice to feel stressfree when I have long work days knowing that my dog gets a good walk in! Thanks Leyla 🐾

What a wonderful experience! Leyla went above and beyond caring for our two babies. She sent regular communication with photos. We recommend Leyla with the greatest confidence and hope we can book with her in the future. 10/10!
