About Leah

From a young age, rescuing animals has been Leah’s passion. She would bring home any creature in need, from birds and snakes to cats and dogs. Her love for animals was shared with her children, creating a household that resembled a miniature zoo, complete with chinchillas, ferrets, rabbits, cats, and dogs. Leah was frequently on emergency runs to wildlife rehab for injured birds and baby bunnies, but one constant remained: her home was always a safe and loving haven for animals.

In December 2017, Leah was diagnosed with T4 Squamous Cell Carcinoma Cancer. During her recovery from surgery and radiation, she immersed herself in helping lost pets find their way home, scouring online lost-and-found pages and offering to scan strays for microchips to reunite them with their owners.

Through this journey, Leah discovered a renewed sense of purpose. She realized that helping animals could also help her find her true calling. With this new perspective, she decided to turn her lifelong passion into a reality by founding Bring Em Home Animal Rescue & Trapping. Leah’s dedication and resilience transformed her personal challenges into a powerful mission to support and rescue animals in need.
