Larissa can care for
Availability
Pet care is already a natural part of my day. I take care of my cat every morning and evening—making sure she has fresh water, the right amount of food, a clean litter box, and plenty of playtime. Since I’m already in a daily rhythm of caring for pets, adding walks or drop-ins fits easily and naturally into my routine.

About Larissa P.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
At home, my kitten is always the first one to greet me at the door, so I make sure she gets attention and reassurance right away. I keep her routine consistent—fresh food and water, a clean litter box, and lots of playtime and affection. When caring for a client’s pets, I’m very mindful of their established routines. I follow feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions exactly as given. I want every pet to feel comfortable and secure, so I do my best to maintain the rhythm they’re used to. Whether it’s my home or yours, my priority is making sure pets feel safe, understood, and well cared for.
Information Larissa P. would like to know about your pet
It’s important for me to know about any quirks, preferences, or habits that are part of your pet’s daily routine. This includes things like eating habits, how they prefer to interact, energy level, favorite toys, sensitivities, or anything that might help me keep them comfortable and happy. The more I know ahead of time, the better I can match their routine and make sure they feel safe and understood while you’re away.
A typical day
I love keeping pets active, engaged, and happy. I always make time for play—whether that’s toys, fetch, laser pointers, or anything that helps them burn off energy in a fun way. For fast eaters, I can use slow feeders to make mealtime more enriching and mentally stimulating. I also enjoy taking pets on walks so they can explore new sights and smells while getting healthy exercise. It’s a great way for both of us to stay active, and I tailor the pace and length of the walk to each pet’s needs. My goal is to make sure every pet has a fun, stimulating, and comforting experience while they’re with me.

Pet care experience
I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember! I’ve grown up with — and cared for — pets of all shapes and sizes, from dogs and cats to fish, birds, horses, rodents, and even reptiles. No matter who your furry (or scaly!) family member is, I’m excited to give them the same love and attention I give my own.

Reviews
Larissa completed a drop-in with my 3 dogs. She communicated well and we would recommend her for pet services.
Larissa did a great job caring for our fur babies! Even with our German shepherd being skittish or strangers, she informed us of any issues with our babies immediately!
I have known Larissa her entire life, and she has always been a very kind, caring and nurturing person. She has always had pets of her own and helped with other pets in the neighborhood. I think that she will do a fantastic job working for pet Rover as she will Lovingly care for anyone’s pet like her own.
I have had the privilege of working with Larissa in a professional capacity since 2021. She is hard working, responsible, timely, and one of the most caring people I have ever met! She is excellent with pets & people!
