Pet care experience

Fully Vaccinated Animal Enthusiast!

As much as we'd all love to spend all day, every day, with our special furry friends - I 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 me. I am happy to discuss the situation and help book the right solution for your scheduling needs. I 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 - I am happy to accommodate your pets needs. I would love to meet you and your pack to help accommodate the needs that you have! Let me know how I can help! While my 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. :)

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Pets in my home are my pets - they are loved, played with, and cared for as if they were my own!

Whether in my home or yours, you can expect the same high level of care and attention for any type of booking. I will treat your home and pets with all the respect and love that you should expect from any caregiver or visitor. I will take your lead on "house rules" as well as "pet rules" and keep your pet on as familiar of a schedule and environment as possible.

Larissa was fantastic with our 2 kitties while we were away for the weekend! Even our super shy one warmed right up to her on the first visit. Her updates were thorough and fun to read with lots of great pics. She also went above and beyond by washing the cats' dishes and getting our mail! Thank you Larissa!!

Larissa was so wonderful watching chaos! He loves her and can't wait to have her back. Even though my dog got skunked for the first time during Larissa's watching him she was great in taking care of things. Larissa is very highly recommended!!!

Larissa is a WONDERFUL dog sitter. From the meet and greet I could tell that she’s a knowledgeable and conscientious dog person, and I felt really comfortable having her stay with my dog Mila. Larissa sent plenty of updates (with really nice photos!) and it was clear that she was very attentive to Mila’s needs. I will not hesitate to hire her 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.
