I treat dogs like my friends

Pet care experience

I raised 7 standard poodles, 1 toy poodle, Annie, pictured in my profile photo, and 1 three pound chi, Lola. They were my family. I groomed them myself, traveled with them, and still miss them a lot. I don’t have any dogs now, but enjoy sitting my son’s two Yorkers when he takes his family on vacation.

Lara did an amazing job taking care of our two yorkies. Both of our boys were well groomed, fed and loved. We highly recommend her as a responsible and loving pet caregiver in the Grand Rapids area!

Lara is a reliable and caring pet caregiver. I can tell she took great care of my two dogs. She fed them, kept them clean and out of trouble. I greatly recommend Lara as a pet caregiver.

Safety, trust & environment

I don’t have a fenced yard and don’t believe that any fenced area is good for a dog. Dogs have to be walked on a leash - they also need to exercise as we do!

Information Lara P. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any special needs. I prefer small or medium size dogs that are friendly and trained to walk on a leash.

A typical day

I will take your dog to a nice park for a longer walk, stimulate your dog with toys at home, pet and talk for your dog to feel at ease.

I am retired and have a very flexible and active schedule, which includes walking in the parks or just around the block ( trying to make 8000 steps per day). Walking with a dog would definitely be more fun.
