Availability

I;m currently not working outside of the home which means your dog will receive full-time attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. I'm able to provide plenty of walks, play time, potty breaks, and companionship not just quick check ins. Whether your dog prefers staying active or prefers a calm cozy environment, I can easily tailor my day around their routine and needs. Your pet will never be left alone for long stretches and will truly feel like a part of the household while you are away.

Safety, trust & environment

Dogs in my home are treated like family and are welcome to relax inside and on furniture, enjoy supervised play, and stick closely to their normal routines for walks, feeding and sleep. If your dog gets along well with other dogs, they'll have the opportunity to socialize with my friendly Sheepadoodle, Appa. If your dog prefers their own space or needs separation, I have a separate area in my home where they can stay comfortably and safely. I also have a fully fenced in backyard for secure outdoor play and potty break, so safety is always a top priority.

Your Dog's Home Away From Home!

Pet care experience

Hello friends! I am honored to be considered to be your pups next best friend. I was raised alongside my childhood dog Nala and ever since then there has always been a pup companion by my side. Over the years I have become the go-to pet sitter for my friends, family and coworkers. From playful puppies to seniors pups who prefer a slower pace, I'm comfortably adapting to every dogs unique personality and needs. I treat every pet as if they are my own - with patience, affection and plenty of attention as I am not working a tradition job at the current time. I understand how important it is to feel confident leaving your dog in someone elses care, and my goal is to always provide a safe, happy and stress free experience for both pups and their humans. Whether its walks, playtime, cuddles, or sticking closely to routine, your dog will be loved and cared for while you're away.

Larissa is the best dog sitter/watcher there is out there. She loves your pet like it is her own. I never have to worry when Larissa is watching my dog because I know she will genuinely love that pup and give all the attention and snuggles. She is super communicative, sends photos and is such a natural at nurturing multiples animals at once. My dog is high energy and hard to get her tired. Larissa is one of the few people that can actually tire out my Pippa. She is so good at play time but also knows when it’s time to calm down, relax and rest. I have never felt more at ease being out of town than when Larissa is the one watching my Pip. Grateful to have Larissa be a safe, second home. Her dog Appa is the best and has become one of my dogs favorite friend. We love them!!!

Larissa was the perfect person to take care of my dog. She sent me updates and photos throughout the entire time. I felt assured that my dog Mac was in good hands and at no point was worried. I’d happily leave my pup with Larissa again!
