Introducing Leigh:

Professional Pet Care

You Can Trust​

​

Hello! I'm Leigh, a dedicated pet care professional with over 15 years of experience in the animal care industry. My passion for animals started by helping my father breed English Springer Spaniels and has since grown into a lifelong dedication to exceptional pet care.

​

As the proud owner of three wonderful dogs—a Doberman and two Weimaraners—I understand the importance of reliable and compassionate care for your furry family members.

 

My experience ranges from administering medications to handling behavioral challenges, ensuring your pets receive the personalized attention they deserve.

​

Why Choose In-Home Pet Care?

PET TAXI-

Ever dreamed of your pet cruising like a VIP? Meet the pet taxi service—think of it as Uber, but for your furry friends! With pet-loving chauffeurs who treat your critter like royalty, these rides aren’t just trips—they’re tail-wagging adventures! Whether it’s a wedding, vet visit, a playdate at the park, or a paw-ty at a friend’s house, your pet will travel in comfort and style. So, ditch the ruff rides and hop aboard the pet taxi—where every journey is a purr-fect delight! 🚖

YARD PET WASTE PICK UP-

The Environmental Protection Agency identifies dog waste as a source of two main pollutants: nutrients and pathogens. When dog waste enters waterways, it can introduce pathogens that may harm aquatic life and pose health risks to individuals who come into contact with contaminated water.

​

Also, who really wants to pick up all of the poop in the yard?

DROP IN VISIT-

What happens during a Drop-In Visit?​

When I arrive, I'll greet your pets with lots of love and attention.

​

Here's what a typical visit includes:​

- Bathroom breaks
- Playtime and mental stimulation
- Treats and cuddles
- Photo updates for peace of mind
- Feeding, if needed
- Keeping them hydrated
- Cleaning up any messes
- Behavior checks and potty observations
- Assisting with any medical needs
- Following all owner instructions

​

Choose from 15, 30, 45 minutes, or a full hour—anything longer is considered an extended visit.

During a drop-in visit, I come to your pet's home to provide personalized care, ensuring they're happy and well taken care of.

It's a client favorite! Reserve your spot now to give your pet the best care possible.

BATHE & BRUSH-

Bathing and Brushing your pet provides a host of benefits:

  • Enhanced Health: Wash away dirt and debris to prevent skin problems, and brushing spreads natural oils for a healthier coat.

  • Reduced Shedding: Regular brushing helps control excess fur, keeping your home cleaner.

  • Early Problem Detection: Grooming helps spot potential health issues, like rashes or fleas, before they become serious.

  • Stronger Connection: Grooming time deepens the bond between the caregiver and your pet.

  • Allergy Relief: Frequent grooming can lessen allergy symptoms by reducing dander and allergens.

TEETH BRUSHING- 

Regularly brushing a dog's teeth can prevent dental disease and keep them healthy and comfortable.

Cats need daily dental care to minimize plaque buildup and prevent tartar. While it may take some effort to train a cat to accept tooth brushing, it gets easier over time. Consistent daily brushing is crucial and helps establish a good routine. For professional teeth brushing for your cat, schedule an appointment with Leigh.

WALK-

What does a Walk entail?

Ready for some pawsitive fun? Here’s what happens during our walks:

  • Options: 15, 30, or 45 minutes (Anything longer is an extended adventure!)

  • Walks take place near your home—unless your pup has a favorite trail.

  • I'll pick up after your dog because it's the polite thing to do.

  • Photo updates for you to enjoy your dog’s happy moments.

  • Treats, because who doesn’t love a snack break?

  • I can track our distance so you know exactly how far we’ve gone.

  • Customizable walk times, tailored to your pet's energy level.

  • Safe dog walking, with all the necessary gear for a smooth stroll.

  • I monitor behaviors and keep an eye on your pup’s well-being.

  • Following your instructions is my top priority.

  • I carry safety equipment for any "just in case" moments.

As a professional dog walker, I'm here to make sure your pet's walk is as enjoyable and safe as possible. Your pet's health and happiness are my top priority—let's get those tails wagging!

NAIL TRIM-

Regular Nail Trimming is crucial for a pet’s health and comfort. Overgrown nails can lead to problems like foot deformities, tendon injuries, and joint strain. They may also damage paw pads and heighten the risk of infections. Keeping pet's nails trimmed helps avoid these issues and supports their overall well-being.

EAR CLEANING-

Cleaning pet's ears:

Why does it matter for dogs and cats?​

Regular ear cleaning is important for both dogs and cats because it:

  • Prevents Infections: Removes dirt, wax, and debris that can lead to ear infections.

  • Reduces Wax Buildup: Manages excess wax to prevent discomfort and potential infections.

  • Prevents Itchiness: Alleviates itching caused by accumulated debris and wax.

  • Detects Issues Early: Helps the vet identify problems like infections, mites, or tumors before they become serious.

  • Maintains Comfort: Ensures overall ear health and keeps your pet comfortable.

While not all pets need frequent ear cleaning, those with a history of ear issues or excess wax will benefit from regular attention.​​​

Leigh has watched my two dogs for the last almost 2 years. My labradoodle is special needs. Leigh is like family to us and I wouldn’t trust my fur kids with anyone else. I cannot stress enough how wonderful Leigh is with my dogs and how much I trust her. She always sends photos and updates. She is always prompt and goes above and beyond to help out. I cannot recommend her enough!

Leigh is the ultimate dog lover. I can't think of anyone else I know who is more devoted to dogs or better suited to take care of them. She truly pays attention to the dogs she cares for, and notices every detail about how they're doing. If you're looking for a true "dog mom" to watch over your special dog, she's the one!

Leigh did an outstanding job caring for our two cats! She sent photos and videos daily of her drop in visits. Played with, brushed, gave snacks and spent extra time coaxing our shy Maine Coon out of his favorite hiding spot. She also vacuumed the Hardwood floors daily. Highly recommend and definitely will use again!
