Senior dog country retreat
Pet care experience
I'm a stay at home mom who has loved animals since before I can remember. I now four kids ages 6 to 13 and we live in a small family farm in the country. We have one dog of our own, a 3 year old female collie. We all love dogs and enjoy having them come stay with us! We are an easy going family who spend a lot of time at home. We can provide a safe, relaxed place for your elderly pup to stay and be loved while you are away! I have been doing dog sitting in addition to being a mom for 10 years. I have experience and am comfortable administering medicine, including oral and injectable. My farm is right off the main road but I have a completely fenced in play yard for the dogs. Because I have farm animals and little kids I do NOT take high energy dogs, escape artists, or skittish dogs. I prefer to take dogs that are at least 7 years old. I may make exceptions for younger dogs that are very mellow. Dogs that do well here are laid back and enjoy hanging out with the family. I encourage you to bring your dog over for a visit to see if we are a good fit for each other!
Reviews
Awesome. Great place for a dog to relax. I felt like my dog was very safe. Thank you Larisa and family for taking Bronco in for the week. You are appreciated!! I appreciate the pictures and updates too.
Larisa was great! Communicated well in advance and during stay, along with provided us pics to let us know how our two dogs were doing. One of our dogs is elderly and the other was in heat during stay and she kept them both safe and tended to them well which we appreciated. Thank you, Larisa.
Excellent service we would use Larisa and Viktor again. Loved how well Precious was looked after. We thank you from the bottom of our hearts. We strongly recommend this service to any future person looking for a dog sitter. Precious was part of the family. ❤️
Larisa was very responsive and took great care of Nugget while I was gone. She has a beautiful property with lots of animals that looks like a dog's dream home. I will definitely be using Larisa and Viktor in the future. Thanks!

Information Larisa & Viktor I. would like to know about your pet
Dogs need to be good with kids and other dogs and at least 7 years old. Familiarity with cats is also nice though not required. I also like to see that dogs have good recall (will come consistently when called). I can't take dogs with high prey drives that would compel then to dig under fences or otherwise fixate trying to get at my farm animals. I also do not take high energy dogs since I don't have the means to give exercise above playing in the yard.
A typical day
We like to hang around the house, play fetch in the yard, and give belly rubs.
