Fur babies are the best!

Pet care experience

I've had a dog of my own for the last 14 years. Her and I do everything together. She is a 20 lb Havanese/Poodle mix and she's the best thing that's ever happened to me! She is a bit persnickety with others, so I have plenty of experience being around other dog and animal personalities. I work from home and have the flexibility to take dog walks as needed.

I had to find a last minute dog walker for Shabazz and Larisa responded promptly and accordingly. She was very nice and professional and took interest into Shabazz's routine as to try to carry on his typical walk schedule.She went above and beyond by suggesting she could check on him during the day as I was away on my work trip. I would definitely request Larisa again to walk Shabazz and most likely will inquire about overnight boarding since she gave vibes of a person who would take great care of your pet. Thanks Larisa!

Larisa was amazing with our little guy Dasher. She went the extra mile to take care of him while we were out of town. Highly recommend!

Larisa is a wonderful dog sitter! She is very caring, professional, responsible and so good with animals. We always request her when we need a pet sitter. Highly recommend her!

Larisa is such a considerate dog sitter! She loves animals and took good care of my dogs. She sent me regular updates while I was on vacation which was so nice. I would not hesitate to have Larisa watch my dog children again 😂

My little one is definitely older, and with that comes a lot of care and close attention to requirements. Since my dog doesn't love being around other dogs, I would prefer to watch your animal in your home and I would follow whatever instructions you would require.

Information Larisa S. would like to know about your pet

My dog is elderly and she has lots of medications I have to be very careful with. So I'm very comfortable having a schedule, written or verbal instructions for health requirements etc... whatever it may be. Anything you need me to do to ensure your pet is taken care of, I am happy to abide by.

A typical day

I currently live right across from a park and Miley and I go 2-3 times a day for our daily walks. I also really love neighborhood walks because it gives us a chance to exercise in a very safe area. It really depends on each animal. Some want more stimulation and some like less. However, if they want to play and be stimulated, I love throwing a ball and digging out the toys from their treasure box. Other dogs seek more of a cuddly and affectionate bonding time, which is also really great and I'd be happy to sit with them on the couch. I adhere to whatever each dog needs.

Having a dog for the last 14 years, pet care has always been part of my routine. She is my priority, so I've learned to build the rest of my routine around her needs. I would do the same if watching your little one, since my job allows me the flexibility and I work from home.
