Pet care experience

We are a family of three. I have 2 kids ages 16 and 20. We moved to the Woodlands in 2017 (Creekside area). We have been boarding and sitting dogs for over 12 years now and have a lot of experience with all kinds of dogs. NOTE ~ Older dogs with special needs such as multiple medications or eye drops or ear drops or any other special needs = $75 per night rate. New Clients - we book 3 nights as a minimum. We require a meeting before booking to make sure our pups like each other. We'll be happy to keep your pup safe, entertained and happy while you’re away. We accept dogs over the age of 2 years old (no puppies) that are well socialized with other dogs. Thanks & looking forward to meeting you and your sweet pup! Why I love dog sitting I have been around dogs my whole life since the age of 14, and very experienced with dogs. I can also provide training and re-inforce some of the common commands. My experience administering medication: Yes, oral medication OK - I have been given many pups their meds; no problem. I am a photographer and work from home. My schedule is very flexible - it allows me to stay home with the pups most of the time. I have a fenced yard, a pet door in my garden door. My dog Bella is very happy and friendly and will keep a great company to your pup.

Larisa was wonderful with my two big babies! She took excellent care of them, made them feel loved, and I will use her again.

Information Larisa M. would like to know about your pet

We welcome friendly and happy dogs who normally love to interact with people and dogs. Any dogs who are very shy or not used to interacting with other people than the owners might have a hard time adjusting to new environment. Not socialized pups (rescue dogs with issues) will have a hard time at our place - since the dogs we board are happy and playful. It is important for us to know your pup's normal routine for food, play, potty and sleeping arrangements to provide for the best care possible. We will discuss all the details further upon our first initial meeting.

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks: We have a beautiful park and a lake right in our complex with lots of grass and trees. Depending on how long is your visit - we might also do a hiking trip in the park close by and a dog park if needed. We are flexible and accomodating to your needs. Your dog's sleeping arrangement: You need to provide your pup's bed or crate or a special blankie/mat that he/she likes. Time I'll spend with your dog: Someone is always home - the dogs will not be left alone.
