*Promo code available to first time Rover users that will save an additional $20 off your first Rover service!* ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As much as we'd all love to spend all day, every day, with our special furry friends - we know that work and life can sometimes get in the way. But you don't have to feel like skipping a meal, a walk, or boarding your animal is the only option! For a day, a week, a month - and anything in between, if you need someone to walk, drop-in for a meal or medicine, or spend the night with your pup (other animals welcome!) - please don't hesitate in contacting us. We are happy to discuss the situation and help book the right solution for your scheduling needs. We have experience caring for puppies as well as caring for senior dogs in their home and providing medicine and strict feeding regimens for them. From administering oral medicine, eye drops, toileting, and wound management - we're happy to accommodate your pets needs. We would love to meet you and your pack to help accommodate the needs that you have! Let us know how we can help! While our prices are pretty standard, it is not uncommon to price on an individual basis after meeting and understanding your pet(s) - feel free to ask. :)

I was a little nervous hiring a cat sitter. Poppy has only been left with a relative, or on her own overnight prior to this. But this was a better experience for both of us! While I was away, I got detailed updates with pictures that are better than the ones I've taken of her. Larissa made sure to try to get her to play, even though all Poppy wanted was to be petted, which she made sure to do. And when I returned Poppy acted like she didn't even care. She seemed calm with no signs of separation anxiety like she usually has with other arrangements. I will definitely be requesting Larissa & Joseph when I go on trips in the future!

Larissa took such great care of my cats. I was able to relax during my vacation knowing that she was looking after them. I really enjoyed the updates and pictures she sent me too! I will definitely book her services again!

Schedule

Caring for animals is my full-time job. While specific times cannot be guaranteed, I always communicate availability and intentions for each visit, trying to keep the "window for arrival" as small as possible.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Larissa can host up to 4 drop-ins per day
Activity level of your animal. Any medical/medicine issues. How does your dog interact with other animals? General obedience level or expectations/training. Do you like them to be (or do they need to be) on a strict schedule?
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
