It's fun to create a bond with the various pets I've taken care of over the years.  Check out Rosie & Buckaroo. I've just stopped by to get an update on their care. After the usual effusive greeting, they run to get their leashes.  As soon as they see me, they figure it's time to go for a walk! - That is what happens when Leslie's taking care of us. - I tickles me that they are so wiggle-y and they remember our routine no matter how much time passes between visits. Pet Guardian Comments:  I am so happy to have you watch my greyhounds. Rebel and Chaz are very special to me and I know they receive good care in your hands. My boys require special diets, supplements, and attention. I'm so happy to have someone I trust take care of them. I know you won't hesitate to help me with any new challenges. They love to see you! - Bonnie (Balboa Lake, CA)  [See Rebel & Chaz in repose in the Photo Gallery] My job is crazy and takes me all over the place. I appreciate that you've ALWAYS been available for the"guys" and Boo-Boo kitty at a moment's notice. I know Roscoe [chow chow] can be a handful sometimes. Thanks for being there for him. You keep them on a more regular schedule when you're watching them than I am able to when I'm home! (Thanks for cleaning up their messes, too!) - Matty (Chatsworth Lake Manor, CA) PS: Leslie offerred invaluable help when Roscoe and I were attacked by a stray dog. She got Roscoe to the vet while I took myself to the hospital. Thank you for your attention to detail while caring for my birds. It means a lot to me that you realize how important Fortune and Nikki are to me. A lot of people would think they're just birds, but to me they're my babies. I so appreciate the extra special attention you give them. - Wini (Chatsworth, CA) Leslie, you handled my "menagerie" just great! You were amazing with my 7 tortoises, 4 box turtles & 2 sliders, as well as the bunnies, and the dog & cat. You readily took on the challenge of twice a day visits, cooking their food and cleaning their "poopy." I can't thank you enough for solving the snotty-nose problem I had with the tortoises. You got good advice from a professional and amazed me by taking it on yourself to buy the necessary equipment to make them better while I was gone. I highly recommend you to anyone who cares about their animals as much as I do mine. - Doris (Winnetka, CA)
