NORA LEON

Welcome! I'm Nora Leon, and I’m so glad you’ve found my books. As a lifelong lover of animals—especially dogs—my passion has always been to help others build strong, joyful relationships with their pets.

For as long as I can remember, dogs have been at the heart of my life. I’ve shared my home with a variety of breeds, from playful labs to loyal dachshunds, and even a few wonderful mixed breeds. My experience with dogs goes beyond simply owning them—I’ve spent over two decades working directly with these amazing companions. From training to pet sitting and fostering rescue dogs, my love for animals has shaped every part of my life.

I spent several years working as a dog trainer in Washington, helping families teach their pups everything from basic manners to more advanced skills. Over the past 17 years, I’ve been running a boarding service from my home, where I’ve had the pleasure of caring for dogs of all breeds, personalities, and quirks. Each dog that comes into my life teaches me something new, and I carry those lessons into my writing to help others create fulfilling, lasting bonds with their own pets.

When I’m not writing, you can find me exploring nature with my two rescue dogs or riding trails with my Icelandic horses here in sunny Southern California.

Thank you for reading, and I hope my books bring you the knowledge and inspiration to make the most of life with your canine companion!
