Pet care experience
Dog’s New Favorite Walking Buddy
I’ve had dogs my whole life and have always been comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. Over the years, I’ve helped walk and care of dogs for friends, neighbors, and coworkers. I understand how important it is to have someone dependable and caring looking after your pet, and I always make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for during our time together.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I live in a quiet, pet-friendly neighborhood with plenty of safe areas for walks, a dog park, and a medium-sized backyard for outdoor time and play. I always stick closely to any routines or instructions provided by owners. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet in someone else’s care, and I treat every dog with the same attention, patience, and love I would give my own.
Ratings and reviews
Lara is extremely friendly, responsive, and flexible with schedules making it a very seamless process. Highly recommend if you’re looking for someone kind and reliable to take care of your pets.
I've known Lara for over 20 years—she's been my neighbor since she was a little girl—and I can honestly say there is no one I trust more with my dogs. She cared for my Cavalier, Cooper, from the time he was a puppy, watching him while I was away, stopping by to feed him or let him out when I was running late, and often asking if she could simply come over to spend time with him or take him for a walk because she genuinely loved him. She also cared for my current Cavalier, Oliver, before moving to Atlanta. Lara is one of the kindest, most caring, and most responsible people I know. She treats every dog as if it were her own and has a natural ability to make them feel safe, loved, and happy. I trust her completely, and I recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for a dependable, compassionate pet sitter. Any pet would be lucky to be in her care.
Lara is very friendly, dependable and most importantly trustworthy. She will care for your dog as if they were her own. Not only will she walk your dog, if requested she will play with them and give them lots of cuddles. When it’s time to leave she will make sure they are safely tucked away in your home. I highly recommend Lara to care for your dog. Bonnie
Lara is the best with dogs! She grew up with 1-3 dogs her whole life so she is more than familiar with dogs in all shapes and sizes. She watched one of my coworkers rescue dogs out of the good grace of her heart. This dog was particularly timid around new humans but Lara got her to let her guard down immediately by just smiling at her and became great friends! Cannot recommend Lara enough for this!

Schedule
I work from home Monday through Thursday, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for walks, drop-ins, and pet care throughout the week. On weekends, I work as a wedding coordinator, but my schedule is still flexible since I manage my own calendar. This allows me to be reliable, communicative, and accommodating when it comes to your pet’s routine and care needs.
