Pet care experience

My passion for animal welfare drives me to provide attentive, reliable care for your companions. With 25 years of experience, I prioritize your dogs comfort and happiness by treating them as if they were my own. I maintain a safe, stimulating environment through consistent routines and strict adherence to specific dietary needs. Whether managing high-energy breeds with active play or vigilantly monitoring for health changes, I ensure your pet feels secure in their own home. I hold certifications in Pet CPR and Pet First Aid, and I always keep emergency contacts accessible to ensure prompt communication. I truly enjoy witnessing the unique quirks of every animal I meet. My goal is to offer you complete peace of mind while I provide your pet with the kindness and responsible attention they deserve. I look forward to building a loving, trusting bond with your furry family member.

Lara was amazing with my pup! I accidentally scheduled for the wrong dates and she adjusted her schedule to help me. She would send pictures daily and my pup always looked so happy! She made sure Ollie got a lot of time outdoor and was able to wear off her energy. I recommend Lara to anyone who is looking to book!! 🩷

I think if my dog had a choice, he may have chosen to stay for good! He was happy and SO well taken care of. There was more than enough good communication and pictures to assure us he was having a blast and loving life which made our time away even more relaxing. We will definitely be using this sweet family for boarding again! 👏✨️

Finding someone you completely trust with your pets is not easy, but Lara has been an absolute blessing. She is attentive, responsible, and has such a calm, loving nature that animals instantly connect with her. It’s clear she doesn’t just “watch” pets — she truly cares for them. While we were away, Lara kept us updated, paid attention to every detail, and made sure our pups were happy. Knowing they were with someone so compassionate made it so much easier for us to relax and enjoy our time away. If you’re looking for someone dependable, kind, and genuinely wonderful with animals, Lara is the person you want caring for your pets.

Lara is truly one of the most caring, dependable, and trustworthy pet sitters we’ve ever had. From the moment we met her, it was obvious how much she genuinely loves animals, and our pets absolutely adore her. She goes above and beyond to make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while we’re away, which gives us complete peace of mind. Not only is Lara reliable and communicative, but she also treats our pets like her own. We always come home to happy, relaxed animals and know they’ve been in the best hands possible. It’s such a relief knowing we never have to worry when Lara is caring for them. We can’t recommend her highly enough!
