Safety, trust & environment

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

Information Larissa W. would like to know about your pet

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?

A typical day

Happy to keep the pup in familiar territory around your neighborhood and the things & places that you and they are used to and comfortable with! Does your pup have a favorite park? We'll go there. We'll visit their favorite fire hydrant and trees along the way. Have balls? A Frisbee? Squeaky toys? You name it, we'll play with it.

Pet care experience

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. :)

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!

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.
