About

Hi!! I’m Leah and I live in Cheektowaga and I travel to provide 24 hour overnight pet sitting in your home while you are away for a vacation or work. I am very experienced (10 plus years) with caring for many types of pets. I love learning each pet's personality. And yes! They may sleep with me if you allow that. Night snuggles are the best! If you’d like, I will contact you daily with a picture, message or video update (just in case you’re missing your fur baby!!). I am trained in first aid, medicine administration and CPR for pets by the SPCA. Federal, criminal and motor vehicle background checks available. (I passed!). While you are away, I'm walking, watching and playing with your fur baby or other pets. I also water plants, retrieve mail and packages, provide pool care, alternate blinds and lights, keep your home locked and your pets safe and secure !! Non-smoker. Own reliable transportation. College degree. Many recommendations on other pet sitting sites which I can direct you to. Five stars. PLEASE be sure to add the DATES you will need 24 hour petsitting at your home in your initial contact with me. THANKS!! Leah.

Leah was able to come and keep my cat company while I was gone for a couple days recently. I’m so happy that she was available on short notice! She was able to offer my cat some pets and playtime, while also sending me picture updates. Very happy with my experience, will definitely call on Leah in the future!

Super experience with Leah. First time having petsitting in our home and we felt very comfortable with her. Our dogs and cats were much happier staying in their home. She also brought new toys for everyone. On return, our house was cleaner than we left it! Felt safe and secure and we’ve already booked her for other dates.

Thanks Sue!! Loved meeting your fur “kids” and looking forward to seeing them again. I felt very comfortable staying at your home and use of the pool during the heat was a bonus!!

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Somewhat negotiable depending on needs.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Typically phone or texting to set up a free “meet and greet” interview when we can decide if we are a good match.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
CPR, first aid training by SPCA. Also a masters degree in mental health counseling which taught me behavior modification techniques I can use with you and your dogs if needed.
