Highlights
Pet care experience
Give your dog the BEST!
I am a professional pet photographer and have been around dogs for the majority of my life. Originally from Russia, I now live near the Woodlands. I have been boarding and sitting dogs for over 14 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 went above and beyond to get to know our 2 dog's personalities and make them comfortable at her home. She gave them lots of love and special attention. We truly appreciate Larisa and look forward to our next trip as we know our kids and safe and happy with Larisa!


Our dog had a wonderful time and was excited to see Bella and Larisa. Thank you so much for your care, compassion and availability!

Highly recommend Larisa! Our dog loves going to her house and we appreciate all the communication and photos when she goes to stay.


Larissa does a great job with our dogs.


Larisa sent lots of pics and updates as well as took them on a walk to get in their exercise!


Larisa did a fantastic job taking care of our Dakota over the Summer holidays. She sent regular updates of all the fun our dog was having at her house. It was clear that our dog was happy and well cared for. I would definitely use her again in the future!

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.

- 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.
