I'll take care of your best friend!

Pet care experience

I’m Larissa and I love dogs! I’ve been around them my entire life and it’s always been a joy to see the love they have for humans and other animals. They’re up for a play or cuddle sessions anytime and make the best companions. I would be lying if I said my pup, Perry, wasn’t my best friend. I’m excited to help watch your pups because I can provide one-on-one care, giving them all the attention and love they deserve. I will make sure to keep your dog well-exercised, stimulated, and cuddled! I grew up in a dog-obsessed family and have had them my entire life. I currently own Perry, who is part Terrier, Pomeranian, and a Chihuahua mix who is friendly and welcoming to other pups. In addition to owning several pups of my own, I have volunteered with dogs at local shelters and have been the go-to sitter for neighbors and a small client base. I always have a great time with the pets I watch because I love to play, stay active, and snuggle. As a pet sitter, I’m very attentive, passionate, and reliable. I’m always aware of what your pup is doing and am passionate about their care. I’m also reliable in my care and communication. I will show up on time, keep you updated via text, and be sure to provide photos to show how much fun your dog is having. I understand how hard it is to be away from your pup and I promise I’ll be there to care in your absence. In addition to my experience with dogs, I have watched multiple cats for extended periods of time. I loved learning their different personalities and playing with a completely different set of toys than what my pup has. I would love to offer care to any and all animals on Rover. When I’m not caring for pups, I love to spend time with Perry. We do everything together: go to the beach, relax by reading a good book, and watch Netflix. Perry even enjoys watching shows with me and especially loves action shows! (She growls at the characters she doesn't like). If you have any suggestions for us, we’d love to hear them.

On time. And gave them a refill on their water before she left. Very happy with her as a walker.

Larissa is wonderful with pets! She has a dog of her own and she does all she can for her. Larissa feeds, walks, plays and even gives medication to her dog. Larissa is a loving and compassionate person that whoevers dog she takes care of, she will treat them as if they were her own. She would be great fro Rover and all the owners who need a dog sitter!

Information Larissa L. would like to know about your pet

I know it can be a little scary for a pup to be away from their owner. I like to learn a little more about your dog’s normal routine and habits as well as any medical issues I should know about. Learning their favorite toys, snacks, and their typical eating routine will help make the stay more enjoyable for the both of us! Finally, because I’ll be typically caring for your dog in your home, I love to learn a bit more about your in-home preferences and routine!

A typical day

On a stay with me, your pup will receive ample love and attention. We’d start our day with a walk and breakfast and then have play time, naps, and frolicking time outside. In the evening, we’d have another walk and then would relax for the night. There really is nothing better then cuddles with a pup during a movie night! I love staying active so your dog would be a welcome companion on walks to the beach and around the neighborhood. On walks, I love to explore, and I’d encourage your pup to do the same.
