Once upon a time there was a girl who loved cats. The end.
Pet sitting services in greater Fort Collins, CO.
Leah’s approach
Animals are beings that feel happiness, love, loneliness, and fear, and I believe they deserve the utmost care and respect, especially when they’re feeling vulnerable. It can be scary when their caretakers leave them to go on a trip. While animals like dogs might enjoy traveling with their caretaker or going to a friend’s house or a kennel, animals like cats feel safest when they’re visited in the home where they feel comfortable. I’ve been pet sitting for three decades and started offering professional services ten years ago. I look forward to adding your pets to my pet care community!

About Leah
I’ve had a deep love and compassion for animals since I was a child, and while I’ve had every kind of pet you can think of, the bond I share with cats is one of the deepest. I’ve been rescuing and caring for stray and feral cats for over three decades, and I have experience caring for cats that have been feral, abused, or neglected. A gentle and respectful approach is my specialty. Taking awkward selfies with cats I care for is also a specialty, as you can see below.
“Leah really went above and beyond when it came to the care of our precious kitty, KiKi. We were gone for about 9 days-- she sent multiple photos and updates of KiKi's well-being while we were gone; it was so reassuring! Seeing the photos and reading the updates really made our trip so much more relaxing! She also had no problem helping out with other household tasks, including watering plants and bringing in the mail. She really was a life-saver while we were on our trip! Five-stars, highly, highly recommend!”
