About Lea

Hello pet parents!

I am a 25 year old American living in NZ. I have worked many jobs including hospitality, tourism, and banking. But what I enjoy most is pet sitting. I have no pets of my own since I travel so often, so it is so nice to be able pet parents while getting my daily dose of pet affection!

Pet care has been my passion as it is very important for animals to be loved well however they need! I have over a decade (12 years) of experience taking care of pets including my own. I have cared for cats and dogs at the same time, farm animals and even fish! I am capable of feeding, watering, and playing with your pets. I have experience giving oral medication to both cats and dogs (usually senior dogs). I love and want to spend time with all the lovable pups and kittens I can! I would be sure to care for your pets as your would yourself. Being around animals Gives me such joy as it is difficult for me to have my own. I love learning about different breeds. I can also teach basic training skills to dogs and puppies including "sit", "down", "stay" and "heel". I am excited to meet your pups and work with you soon!

The area near my home is hilly, but there is a beach for dogs to be off leash and enjoy running. I do not provide boarding but can come for visits and do sleepovers when needed.

Thank you so much for considering me!
