Jocelyn’s story

Hi, I’m Jocelyn, animal lover, treat-giver, leash-holder, and founder of The Leash Lord.

For as long as I can remember, I’ve felt most at home around animals. I’ve always believed that pets deserve the same care, respect, and joy that we give our people.

After years of walking, sitting, and loving pets for friends, neighbours, and family, I realized just how needed this kind of personalized, trustworthy care really is. That’s when The Leash Lord came to life, a playful name with a purpose-driven heart. I created it to offer pet parents peace of mind, and to give every animal I care for the royal treatment they deserve.

When I’m not out walking Edmonton’s fluffiest royalty, I’m likely in my garden, snuggled up with my own pups, or connecting with the wonderful humans behind the tails.

I left my dogs in Jocelyn’s care for a full week and was so impressed by the level of attention and love she gave them. She sent daily updates with photos and made sure they got their walks in, which gave me real peace of mind. When I came home, they were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Jocelyn truly went the extra mile—my dogs adored her. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave them with her again.

Jocelyn has looked after our family dog during a week-long stay and we’ve also used her for dog walking. Each experience has been outstanding. She’s dependable, thoughtful, and clearly loves what she does. Our dog always lights up when he sees Jocelyn, and her updates and photos are such a lovely touch. It’s obvious how much care she puts into every visit. We feel completely at ease knowing our dog is in such good hands—there’s no one else we’d rather trust.

We don’t usually leave our dogs behind—we take them everywhere because we’re very cautious about who we trust. But Jocelyn made us feel completely comfortable. She stayed with them for two nights and immediately established a connection. Our dogs really respected her, which says a lot. She gave them calm structure and warm attention, and it shows. It feels so good knowing we finally have someone we trust to care for our dogs in their own home.
