I am a reliable pet caregiver with a deep love for animals, nurtured from growing up with my own cats and dogs. My passion for pet care extends to my volunteer work at the Gulf Coast Humane Society, where I continuously enhance my skills in pet care. With extensive experience in fostering and caring for friends' pets while they're away, I am their trusted choice for dependable and affectionate care. I take pride in treating every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I also delight in walking and playing with dogs, making our time together enjoyable and fulfilling. Rest assured, your pets will receive the love and attention they deserve in my care.

Larisa made sure our 2 cats were loved and cared for each visit. She went above and beyond to make sure our cats and house were taken care of. She sent detailed updates and pictures.

Larissa is the most amazing dog Walker. Not only was she punctual and efficient the care she gave to my dog was beyond expectation. She gave extra rubs and loves and really gave her extra walks. Ivy is dog aggressive and attacks motorcycles bikes and anything else on wheels. Larissa was very vigilant when she walked her and kept her and everything around her safe.I don't think I would ever hire a different dog Walker than Larissa and I would even trust her with overnight care. She was absolutely amazing.

I left my cat for four nights, and Larisa was great. She swiftly updated me on her work schedule, so I could adjust my automatic feeder accordingly. She stayed with my cat the entire time. Above all, she was more than happy to be in contact to answer any questions I had. She took the best photos after every session. She even stayed a bit longer on some days. She’s amazing. I’m definitely booking her next time I need a sitter. You won’t be disappointed.
