Highlights
Pet care experience
Trustworthy, reliable animal lover!
I am a lifelong animal person, specializing in dogs. I've lived with and cared for over a dozen dogs of various breeds, sizes, personalities, and needs. I grew up with multiple dogs, a cat, and a rabbit (as big as me!) who followed me around as I learned to crawl. Our family rescued many animals in need; ducks warmed up in our bathtub when they got frozen in the river, and orphaned squirrels ended up running up and down the curtains in our living room. I have adopted multiple rescue dogs over the years, and two of them even ended up on the cover of Bark Magazine! And I would love to help care for yours!
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I spent over 20 years as a professional visiting people's homes and developing trusting relationships with them, and I will treat your pet like I'd treat a loved one of my own. If your fur baby comes to me, I have a fenced-in backyard (8 foot cedar privacy fence) with locked gates where animals can run and play if you wish them to. I love to give treats and cuddles, and for walks near my own home, I live in a safe, clean, area close to Forest Park.
Ratings and reviews
Lara is amazing. Our dogs love here.


Lara is the best!


Laura is flexible and great with our dog!

Lara is a godsend. She was able to walk my girls at the last minute. She sent pictures and made sure they had a good time out of the house. I’m definitely booking her again. It’s nice to know I can count on her.


Lara does a terrific job with Lucy. I couldn't be more pleased!

Will use Lara again for our dogs.

I am a college educated, former working professional, and now a mom whose kids are in school. I am available for walks and in-home visits, and I can also offer day care in my home.
