Dogs Are The Best!🐶❤️

Hi there pup parents. I hope you checked out my reviews. I absolutely love dogs and have learned so much over my lifetime. I have a special connection with all dogs big and small. 😉 I give rub downs and lots of attention and will treat your pup as if my own. ( Please note I will match other Rover Rep fees but I’m a firm believer that you get what you pay for. Make sure you go into the home where your family member will stay.

Lara was amazing! She was incredibly attentive to my dog’s needs, made sure she got plenty of exercise (even in a snow storm!), and made her feel completely at home. She didn’t want to leave when we picked her up! Your critters are in good hands with Lara and we’ll definitely be booking with her again in the future.

Lara is a fabulous Dog sitter! She provides a loving and friendly environment for dogs to feel at home while their families are away. I’m so happy I found her on this site and I will definitely reach out to her next time we are in Tahoe. Thank you Lara!!

Morty had a great time with Lara and her updates helped me feel settled since it was the first time I’d left him for a weekend since our move. She’s super communicative, her home feels safe and clean and welcoming for pups, and her dog Tango is a great host too. Morty will be back!

Lara was so amazing! She treated my pup as her own and was extremely flexible to work with! My boyfriend and I were on vacation and staying at a place that did not allow dogs, so Lara was flexible and let us pick her up during the day to take her to the lake. She was also great with walks and taking her swimming as well! My pup usually is sad to be separated from me, but felt right at home with Lara. Would definitely recommend and book again!

We have fantastic hiking trails in close proximity to my home. Your dog will appreciate a wealth of sights and smells to add to the fun of playing with my baby boy.(I only take dogs off leash if the pet parents authorize)
