That said, what can an owner do differently when the leash breaks and the dog is hellbent on disemboweling another dog?

I agree that a cat is not likely to hurt another animal while you leave it under the care of a pet sitter, however the likely hood of the cat getting out, hurt, or getting attacked by a dog or raccoon is more likely with a less attentive person.
If this dog actually broke the leash (which I think is very unlikely) it would have either been a) damaged before hand, b) not appropriately sized for a dag that large or c) not installed properly. A professional dog walker would know that the dog was aggressive to other dogs before hand and would have been VERY attentive while walking this dog and would have not walked with a damaged or inappropriate leash. There are so MANY thing wrong with this situation that could have easily been avoided with someone who knew what they were doing.
Now, mistakes do happen - even with professionals. I have had some pretty scary situations in the past 5 years that have taught me more about what COULD go wrong with a dog, a cat, or even a rabbit or turtle.
