Caring Compassionate Animal Lover

Pet care experience

I have had labrador retrievers since I was a young child. I've had wonderful experiences within my family that allowed me to help care for our female dog and two litters of puppies. I am a huge dog lover and take my girls with me wherever and whenever possible! I've always dreamed of working with animals and am hopeful this could be a great experience! We are a dog oriented family and become attached to dogs very easily. Your dog would be loved and treated as our own! Our girls sleep on the bed and have full access to our home. We have a female chocolate lab and a female black lab mix that we rescued and they are our world! Please consider myself and my family to care for your pets. I am available after 7am and until 5 to 6pm in the evenings for daily pet care. My girls and I go on daily walks of 3 to 4 miles and on most days you will find us outside in our fenced in yard playing fetch. It's our girl's favorite game! I have a fenced in yard and plenty of room for your dog to run and play. We have a doggie kiddie pool we fill up when it is hot so the pups can play in the water. We have crates if your pet requires crating.

Larissa and her family were absolutely fabulous. They treated my dog as their own and gave him lots of love and attention. She was great with communication and giving me lots of updates and photos. My dog has found his second home!

We left our mini bernedoodle with Lara for 10 days. She was very conscientious, and assuring as we were concerned about our being out of the country. Lara sent us pictures and updates of how our pup was adjusting with her dogs. Her home and back yard are clean and safe and her children were a delight with our puppy . I would highly recommend Lara If you need doggie day care or boarding. She is a true professional and wants to ensure your dog is safe and happy

Larissa and her beautiful family were amazing with our furbaby, Asher. It’s so great knowing we have found someone we feel comfortable leaving Ash with on short or extended vacations. Ash had the time of his life playing with his doggie friends, Maddie and Molly. The dogs played in their doggie pool and enjoyed a long, leisurely walk. Larissa was great with sending me consistent pics and updates as requested. It’s is so obvious that Larissa and family are passionate about their love of dogs. I know my little love is in great hands.

Larissa and her family made our anxious dog feel so comfortable! Larissa was fantastic with communication to ease our minds and assure us he was doing well! Her dogs made sure he got plenty of exercise and was happily tuckered out when he got home! We will definitely be back!

Information Larissa G. would like to know about your pet

I have two 2 young children and would need to know if your dog is aggressive or tends to bite. As our pups are a little older now, it's a more laid back environment for your pup so I would need to know if your pet was high energy.

A typical day

Our girls loves to go to dog parks, swim in our kiddie pool and go on long walks. We love to take our doggies with us whenever possible and love to spoil them! Starbucks Puppacino will become a favorite for your dog! Your dog would be a part of our family during their stay and will be very loved!
