Foster parents for 30 years!

Pet care experience

We’ve owned dogs and fostered hundreds of animals over the past 30 years. We have lots of experience with pets of all personalities. We are comfortable administering medications. We just lost our most recent dog at age 18 after a prolonged illness. I’m looking forward to spoiling your doggie with all my attention. We welcome more than one pet from the same home. My husband works from home and I’m home full time. With my kids grown and gone I have nothing but time to play and snuggle with your pup. I’ll be able to adapt my schedule to your dog’s needs. Since our elderly dog passed last month we don’t have any pets of our own and we’ll only be sitting pets from the same household so your furry friends will get all our attention. We have a large fenced yard with 6 foot fences. Our gates are locked at all times. We do have a pool in the back yard, but the dogs are never left outside unsupervised. We live in a beautiful neighborhood perfect for walks

Just picked Bentley up from his second stay with Larissa; he had a great time and was well loved!

Simply put, Larissa is the best, full of love and experience with dogs. She took care of our puppy Echo with great patience and love. During Echo’s stay, Larissa kept us updated and our dog was super attached to her. She also has experience with all kinds of dogs in different breeds and ages. I would be more than happy to have Echo board there when we are out of town.

Larissa took such great care of our Bentley. He took to her, her husband, and her home immediately during the Meet & Greet and we were won over. Dogs just know good people! He has been home one day and we can tell he’s worn out from a playful weekend. Very happy and we’ll be repeat clients. Thank you Larissa and Larry!

Larissa and her family did an excellent job watching Kai while we celebrated our honeymoon. She sent us loads of photos that helped ease my wife's nerves during our stay. She also gave our dog tons of affection and love, I know this because when we came to pick him up he didn't want to leave! :D The moment we brought him home he immediately took a nap. I'd definitely recommend booking Larissa, she was very professional and made everything super easy!
