Pet care experience
Need a doggy sitter!? I'm here to help! Having been in your situation, I understand the love and care you want your dog to have. I have undivided love for animals and treat them as children! I have a very sweet golden retriever, Willow, who loves all dogs. She is very calm in temperament and low energy after her 5 minutes of over excitement when she meets and wants to show off to a new pup. Our home is a haven for pets. Whether your dog prefers lounging on the sofa, sprawling out on the floor, or snuggling up in bed, they are more than welcome to do so! We have a fully fenced yard where your pup can enjoy plenty of love, belly rubs, walks, and exercise. In addition to spending quality time with your furry friends, I'll also provide regular updates and pictures to keep you connected with their daily adventures. **Repeat Guests, please feel free to message me even if the calendar says we are unavailable. We are usually more than willing to open the weekend up for you as long as we are in town!**
Reviews
Larissa did an amazing job caring for our dog when we were gone! She communicated, send pictures and answered all the questions we had. And our dog felt right at home. It seemed like he didn't even know we were gone and didn't want to leave when we picked him up. ❤️We would highly recommend Larissa!
Larissa is awesome! Always flexible and the pups love going there. It feels so nice to be able to leave them in a great home when we are away.
Larissa made leaving town easy. We received daily updates with photos and her house was a clean and safe place for our dog.
Amazing sitter 🐶🐾

A typical day
When it comes to playtime, I've got you covered. My large fenced-in yard offers a safe and secure space for dogs to play and run to their heart's content. We love to go on walks along the General Mills Nature Center and go on daily walks as long as the weather permits. I understand that every dog is unique, so I'll tailor my approach to their specific needs and preferences. Whether it's engaging in stimulating games, providing gentle cuddles, or simply being a comforting presence, I'll make sure they feel right at home.

I currently work full time from home, allowing me to dedicate plenty of time to caring for and entertaining your furry companions. Working from home means I have the flexibility to give your dogs the attention and care they need throughout the day. Whether it's playing fetch, going for walks, or simply cuddling up together, your pups will have my undivided love and company. They are more than welcome to hang out with me in my office if they enjoy being around someone all day. I understand that dogs have different needs and preferences, and I'm here to accommodate them. If your pup enjoys a good game of tug-of-war or a leisurely stroll in the park, I'll make sure they get the exercise and mental stimulation they need. On the other hand, if they prefer lounging around or getting belly rubs, I'm more than happy to provide those cozy moments too.
