Home away from home for your pups
Pet care experience
I’m a huge dog person, I have 2 of my own. My 2 are all flat nose breeds, so plenty of experience there. I have an American Bully and a Frenchie. All fixed. Lots of experience with seniors, I lost my 16 year old Pug In January and had him for 12 years. I’ve had another make it to 14 and 18. So extra care is okay too! I have doggy pads and doggy diapers. Hardwood floors for easy clean up. I live downtown next to the canal path, perfect for walks. I work from home, so can work around your pets schedule. Dogs are family so they have free rein in the house, but crated at night or when I leave the house. Furniture, beds, nothing is off limits. I do have a 5 year old who loves dogs, and is around often, which is great for puppies.
Reviews
Larissa is awesome! She cared for our puppy as if he was her own and we loved it! She made sure she sent plenty of pics of him and always kept us informed. Also Tank and Louie are the cutest and sweetest fur babies. They also took great care of our lil Benji. We’ll definitely be reaching back out to her to sit for our puppy next time we’re in need of overnight boarding 🥰
Larissa was so incredibly patient with my dog. He was having a hard time adjusting to being somewhere new and she knew exactly how to handle it. She was quick to calm my nerves and she put up with my silly questions. I would recommend her to literally anyone with a pet. She is perfect for this role and I cannot thank her enough for all she did for my dog while I was away.
Larissa was absolutely wonderful! Django was a little nervous the first night and she was very communicative and helpful to make him feel more at home and comfortable.
My dog loves coming to stay with her! He always comes back home happy and healthy. Always love the picture updates. Highly recommend

Safety, trust & environment
I have leads in the yard for those that like to sunbathe. I also have a fenced enclosure. But I like to take walks since we’re right by the high school and the canal path. Crated at night for bedtime. Other dogs in the home for company and playing. Toddler in the home who is gentle and playful with dogs. I send photos, videos, and I’m available via FaceTime as well, for those who want to call their pups.

Information Larissa L. would like to know about your pet
I’m most familiar with flat nose breeds but if you dog has any special needs or requirements just let me know and I can accommodate and work around you and your pet! I have tons of experience with senior dogs, all the way to 18 years old.
A typical day
I live right by the canal path which is great for walks. I’m home all day so your dog won’t be crated and will be able to play with my 3. We go outside every 3-4 hours and when it’s nice outside they sunbathe on leads.
