Highlights
Pet care experience
Your pet's new favorite place
Hi! I’m originally from Brazil and I brought all the warmth and joy with me to London :) I’ve always been around animals so I'm used to be very patient, affectionate, and attentive to each dog’s individual needs. Whether your dog is energetic, shy, or just loves to relax, I adapt to what makes them feel most comfortable and safe. Your pup will also have my pup’s company, little Dumpling! She’s full of personality and loves to win other’s dog’s hearts. Also, I genuinely enjoy long walks, and having a dog with me makes that time even more special, so walks are never rushed, but something I truly look forward to.

Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Larissa takes great care of my Frenchie, Dobble. He always comes back from his walks relaxed and happy. I would definitely recommend Larissa to any dog parent.
Larissa was absolutely wonderful with Maruko! She sent me frequent photo and video updates throughout the day, which made me feel very reassured and allowed me to see how happy and comfortable Maruko was🥰. Maruko also got along so well with Larissa’s dog, Dumpling, and it was lovely seeing them spending time together. Larissa is caring, attentive and very easy to communicate with. I would definitely highly recommend her!
Larissa was amazing with Gaia! She was very attentive, kept me updated throughout the walk with photos and messages. I could tell Gaia had a great time. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her!
We’ve used Larissa several times now for different services, and somehow she manages to exceed our expectations every single time. Pudding absolutely adores her, and I honestly think she gets more excited to see Larissa than us some days! She’s punctual, organised, incredibly caring, and keeps us updated throughout every walk or stay with lovely photos and videos, which always puts our minds at ease. She pays attention to the little details, follows our instructions carefully, and genuinely goes the extra mile to make sure Pudding feels safe, comfortable and loved. Her communication is excellent, and she’s become someone we know we can completely rely on whenever we need help. Finding someone you trust with your dog isn’t easy, but with Larissa we’ve never had to worry for a second. We couldn’t recommend her more highly. Pudding has definitely found her favourite Brazilian.
Terrible experience. She said she could manage my dog unneutered and her one on heat but she just made my dog suffer for 2 days. I was on holidays and I had to spent the whole day looking for someone who could go pick up my dog as an urgency matter. Then I found someone last minute and Larissa complained 9:30pm was late for her to give me my dog back! Basically for her was fine to make my dog suffer and cry one whole more night. I didn’t want to make this review but when the whole experience ended, she decided to try to charge me for one more hour of her keeping my dog. I find this all behaviour unacceptable and I do not trust this app anymore. Sitters can be unprofessional and when they have written on the profile that they are trained is not always true. So it’s important to get to know the owner well before leaving your baby. Will not recommend larissa for medium-large breed.
Larissa is lovely, Fig adores her! Very communicative💫

Schedule
Pet care fits very naturally into my routine because I currently spend most of my time at home. This means I’m able to give dogs plenty of attention throughout the day, including regular walks, playtime, and supervision. I’ll keep you updated regularly with messages and photos, so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for. I can be flexible with drop-off and pick-up times. They might even practice some yoga with me!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I provide a calm, safe, and clean environment where your dog can feel comfortable and relaxed. My home is tidy, pet-friendly, and has a fanced garden (you can check it out on the pics) where dogs can enjoy fresh air and supervised outdoor time. On top of that, I only take a limited number of pets at a time so I can give each dog the attention and care they deserve. Either is at your place or mine, I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding routines, walks, and any special requirements. I’m very attentive when it comes to safety, both inside and outside the home, and I make sure dogs are always supervised and secure during walks and outside time. For day care: normally is a standard 8 hours, anything over that may incur a small additional hourly rate if we can both agree.

A typical day
Walks in the park, playtime with toys, games and lots of cuddles! I tailor activities to each pet's preferences, ensuring they stay happy and engaged throughout the day.
