Excited to meet your furry friends!

Pet care experience

I have been taking care of pets for the past 15 years. I have two dogs Millie (German short hair pointer/lab mix) and Roo (hound mix) of my own to add to the mix! My parents are currently taking care of my beloved childhood dog, Daffney, who is a 15 year old BichonPoo. I love going for walks and spending time with all dogs! I love house sitting and watching over animals while their owners are gone as well! I am easy going, punctual, a hard worker and open to new adventures! Also, I love being outdoors! I am currently a full time Register Nurse, but I am willing to work with your schedule! I am eager to get to meet your dogs and treat them as one of my own, so hire me and find the sitter you have always wanted!

Larissa is the best. I had a bit of a complicated request for dog walking (different times, different pick up locations) and she was very accommodating. Showed up on time and took wonderful care of my dog (Chloe). Chloe loved her. I will definitely request her again. Thank you, Larissa!!

Larissa is extremely punctual, responsible and has one of the biggest hearts in the world. Larissa is a nurse, and would show the same compassion and care towards your dog as she does with her patients in the hospital. I would highly recommend Larissa to take care of/walk my dogs in my absence. I know she would treat my dog just like it was her own.

Larissa is by far the best fur baby sitter I have ever had. Bucky, my fur baby, was having so much fun with Larissa while we were gone that he hardly noticed when we got back. I thought he might just be tired but when Larissa came by later that day, he was so excited that he was bouncing off the walls! He was way more excited to see her than me!! To know that he is so well cared for when I am gone makes me so happy! I now schedule my vacations around Larissa's schedule to be sure that she can watch him when we're gone.

Larissa has loved dogs her whole life. She is a loving, caring, and responsible person. Larissa is very patient and will always do her best no matter what comes her way. I have personally seen her interact and care for many dogs and I would definitely trust her with my dog!

Information Larissa J. would like to know about your pet

When getting to know your furry friends there are a few questions I have first. -What type of energy are they? -Do they get along with other dogs and people? -Will they need to be fed or given medications under my watch? -Do they have any allergies or special diet considerations? -Are they okay with being left home alone for periods of time? If so, how long? -Are they crate trained? -Are they potty trained? If there are any questions you have for me just let me know!

A typical day

I love to go on walking trails and if you dogs are up for the challenge I would love to take them hiking at local parks/dog parks as well! Playing fetch, learning new tricks and making fun innovative games up for your pups to challenge their minds are my go to! If you have any other fun activities that you prefer, I am always up to the challenge and am willing to accept any feedback!
