Our experience with Leesa was fantastic. Leesa proved to be a conscientious and detail-oriented sitter. Before our engagement even began, Leesa asked to come to our house to meet our dogs so she could get an understanding of their behavior and daily routine. She was attentive and receptive to all the nuances that go into their daily routine and she was also very careful to always ask questions and permission if there was something she wanted to do (e.g., prepare home-cooked doggy treats). Leesa was also very keen to replicate routines and keep old habits going strong. For example, she recorded me putting our dogs collars/leashes on so as to not disrupt the pre-walk routine that the dogs have become used to. She also picked up on a few commands that our dogs knew, and wanted to be sure to use them. Leesa was flexible (as she came to our home a few hours earlier than originally planned) and reliable with photos and updates during the stay. My wife and I were leaving town for the weekend and, as most couples do, found ourselves hurried and late. Leesa arrived and immediately stepped in, taking the dogs on a walk. She wanted to make sure that we could finish packing and hit the road without the distraction of the dogs trying to stay good-bye. Leesa gave regular reports on the dogs while we were away and continued to be mindful of anything she thought might be worth asking. Not once did I get the impression that things could go south--she seemed 100% in control. Leesa was also as gracious a guest in our home as one could ask. We returned to a hand-written, welcome-home note and two dogs that were (seemingly) better behaved than when we left. All in all, our experience with Leesa was terrific, and we hope to be able to repeat with her as often as she'll let us.

About: I’ve loved and cared for a variety of animals throughout my life. I’ve had dogs, cats, a parakeet, hamsters, gerbils, rats, ferrets, fish, a bearded dragon, and a red tail boa. I LOVE animals. When I was a kid I would even spend my weekends at our local pet shop holding and playing with their animals. I am a mother of two teenagers, and have been a small business owner, so I am extremely responsible, reliable, caring, attentive to detail, and have the skills to do anything necessary to care for your pets. I am available most of the time, and my time is flexible. I recently sold my half of my small business and am now taking some time for myself (that I want to fill with animals!), so I am almost always available and flexible. We have a fenced in yard, but we also live in a beautiful historic neighborhood and love taking walks around the neighborhood and to the park as often as possible.

Brandon was so good with my animas. We had a problem with the heat in our house while he was there and he dealt with it like a champ. He’s a great dog and house center. .

Elisa was lovely! Easy to communicate with and very clearly loves dogs. She took very good care of our 3 month old puppy and our 6 year old German Shepherd, so she is well versed in dogs big and small. She sent lots of photos and I could tell my girls were happy and comfortable with her. We will absolutely ask Elisa back!

Tarah is amazing. She cared for our fur baby during the 4th weekend and Miss. Remi gets very anxious with loud sounds but Tarah went above and beyond to keep her comfortable. When we first met Tarah she was very personable and Remi went straight to her. She has excellent communication skills while keeping your pet. We highly recommend Tarah. We will definitely ask her to keep Remi again.
