Availability
Earlier morning and evening drop-ins work best with my current schedule as I do have another part-time job and frequently volunteer doing wildlife research-related activities.

Insured care for pets of all kinds!
Pet care experience
Insured care for pets of all kinds! I am a recent MTSU graduate with a degree in biology and an interest in wildlife research and conservation. I am insured and have experience with a wide variety of species. I would love to care for your fur-, scale-, and feathered-babies while you’re away! I am located in Hendersonville but can accept some drop-ins outside of the service area shown. Growing up, I learned to care for several species of animals in my home including dogs, cats, rabbits, sugar gliders, ferrets, fish, and lizards. My knowledge of pet care has expanded since then. Our family currently includes three cats, a boa constrictor, a kingsnake, two tarantulas, black widows, geckos, and a hissing cockroach. I enjoy the continual learning that comes with keeping less common animals and strive to improve upon their care as I come across new information. I do not think there is a lack of quality and trustworthy dog and cat caregivers in the area, but personally, we have found it difficult to find care for our exotic species while we are away. I would love to help out with any and all fur-babies, but I am most excited to give peace of mind to those with exotic pets who have had difficulty finding care in the past. I do have some experience with administering oral, injected, and transdermal medication to cats and recently cared for my own cat while she was in isolation following radioiodine treatment. I also have experience with some reptile conditions such as stuck sheds, respiratory infections, and parasitic infestations. I offer drop-in visits for all animals for feeding, welfare checks, and litterbox cleaning or enclosure spot-cleaning. Let me know how what I can do for you!

Reviews

We had a wonderful experience with our Rover sitter. She responded promptly, was flexible with our schedule, and communicated with us throughout each visit. She shared photos and updates on our dog's well-being every time she dropped in, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. We felt completely comfortable knowing he was being well cared for, and we wouldn't hesitate to book with her again. Highly recommend!


Larissa was great with my dogs. She sent me pictures and updates regularly. My dogs were very very happy.

Once again Larissa took excellent care of our cat Jack. We received lots of feedback and pictures.


Great with our dogs who can be difficult to warm up to people! Also great communication and quick response time.
