Pet care experience
Pawssionate pet lover
Use my code when booking: https://www.rover.com/sit/larisk96608 Hi pet parents! I love being around animals & I’ve grown up with & cared for them since I was young. I have caregiving experience for family, neighbors & friends, including elderly pets & those requiring special assistance. I’ve demonstrated a caring, cautious, patient & observant approach with every animal I encounter. I’m frequently between Troy or Clifton Park. We have a GS puppy and a senior kitty who live separately. It’s important that your fur babies are vaccinated to ensure the safety of my own. Currently working on socializing my pup to make more friends! I am familiar with prep/cooking for furry friends & we cook/administer supplements to my kitty. I want them to have the best lives. You can expect the same for your pets - I’ll care for them like they’re my own. I will care for any animal(s). I’ve worked with cats, dogs of different breeds and sizes (up to 120 lbs), birds, rodents, & horses. I will always follow your directives & ensure the safety of your pet(s) at all times. I can match your pet’s energy, whether they are energetic & playful or calm & quiet. I will communicate (picture) updates with you to put your mind at ease. I will not only feed, pet, walk & play with your fur babies, but I will do any & all types of clean-up after your pets. Your fur child(ren) will be offered the same respect, love & care while you’re away! My schedule for this semester will make me less available on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays. I’ll be free after 3:30 on Mondays and Wednesdays, and after 6 pm on Thursdays. I want to be transparent with you! Thank you for considering me. I'm furtunate & grateful to be of service! Any & all questions are welcome!

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I’m available to stay overnights &/or extra hours in your home for your furbaby(ies). I bring water bowls with me on longer walks & in warmer weather. I have an extra leash as well. I have a headlamp and reflective jacket for night walks. I also gather vet info & emergency contacts for safety reasons. I’ll ensure your home stays clean. I'll take care of your plants &/or wildlife, too, if you have any!
Ratings and reviews
Jax is always so excited to see Larissa! She is helpful, friendly and gives great walk updates. Will definitely continue to book her for walks.
Larissa did a great job taking care of our animals, as she has done in the past for us. Thank you!
Larissa always takes great care of our cats. They appreciate her a lot!
Larissa took such great care of our 2 cats while we were gone, they didn't even care that we came back from vacation! She was very attentive to the needs of our fur babies and ensured they got more than just their basic needs met. We will absolutely hire her again when needed!
I couldn't be happier with Larissa's care of my pups. My dogs are usually anxious when we go away, and they showed zero signs of anxiety when we got back. All thanks to Larissa! Couldn't recommend more
Another great visit with Larissa! Always know my cats are safe with her looking in 🙂

Schedule
I’ve expanded my pet care services to Rover because I enjoy making creatures happy. I can be flexible and accept sudden requests if need be. I have reliable transportation. I’ll soon be in college from Monday through Thursday, and I’ll try to be as flexible as possible!
- Cats0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbs41 to 100 lbsover 101 lbsLarissa can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
- Please let me know what kind of activities &/or toys your pet(s) like, as well as any specific needs, preferences &/or behavioral issues they have so I can better cater to them. Also, kindly inform me if your pet has a special diet (cooked food, certain eating habits, etc), if they are food-motivated, how long they can be left alone, how they typically behave during walks, & of any exercise preferences. I have experience with medical administration & can administer if necessary. If your pet has separation anxiety, I will spend more time doing my best to help them feel comforted while you're away. If your pet is being trained, please inform me as to how you may want me to interact with them (commands, etc). Let me know if they're allowed to walk on a retractable leash as well.
