Availability
I always do my best to make time to spend with animals! I am able to do daytime and overnight sitting depending on how far the location is from where I live. I work from 8-4 on the 22nd, 23rd, 26th, 29th, 30th, and the 1st. Other than that, I am free!

About Lara M.

Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I do not take care of pets in my own home as I already have a dog and she's a little skittish, but I am happy to travel to clients' homes to care for theirs. I always leave the space as I found it, and am very adamant in maintaining cleanliness. It is important to me that everyone is comfortable when I begin a job. Again, feel free to reach out with any questions!
Information Lara M. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your animals have any special needs or behaviors I can account for. I am happy to help, but I need to make sure I am qualified to.
A typical day
I love to go on walks/runs and explore nature! I'll play with the animals however they like, or I am happy to give them as much alone time as they need. I'm there so they can be safe and as comfortable/stress free as possible. I'm more than happy to chill out with them -- sunbathe, listen to music, etc.!

Pet care experience
I have always had an animal around the house since I can remember. Over the course of my life, I have had eight dogs (big and small), five cats, corn snakes, hamsters, guinea pigs, and several fish. Quite a bit, if you ask me, but I've always thought, the more the merrier! I love all types of animals and approach every species/breed with the same amount of patience and care. I bring a very calm presence in an effort to soothe pet anxiety, but I sure know how to have some fun!
Reviews

Lara was wonderful and accommodating. I needed a last minute dog sitter and she did everything I wanted and also spent time with my pups! I loved the pictures!

Lara was so great watching Yumi for the day while I was out of town! She was prompt on walks and check-ins and provided updates with photos. Would definitely recommend!
Lara was amazing! I needed a last-minute sitter, and she was able to accommodate me on short notice. My dog was recently diagnosed with an autoimmune disease, so I was very nervous about leaving him for the first time. Lara quickly put my mind at ease by sending frequent updates, including photos. She made sure to feed him properly and administer his medication on schedule. Her attentiveness and care were exceptional, and I felt completely reassured knowing my dog was in good hands. I will definitely be using her services again!

Lara was great with our nervous, little dog. Lacey even felt safe enough with her to do some actual walking. She was on time and worked with our ever changing timeline.
