Information Larissa W. would like to know about your pet

Any quirks, trouble spots, previous training, current training, current procedures for walk. I like to be able to see your routine and where your trouble spots are.

A typical day

Get lots of fun pictures, send via personal phone if needed. Go to park near by, play with all toys provided, cuddles, if there is something specific a owner wants to work on willing to do so. Based on time spent with anima as to how well new command is learned, examples include but are not limited too, learning boundaries in home, walk, stay, come, sit, lay down, bark, quiet time, down, wait, and leave it. Behavioral issues I have dealt with is aggression over food, toys, other animals and people, guarding of toys and people, separation anxiety complications, destructive behavior, outside distraction, and potty training.

Pet care experience

Schedule update: I have a full time job now, my start time is 8am-5pm Monday-Friday in person. Waiting to see if I am allowed to take my work equipment to other addresses when I go remote. That will not start until Sept 18th so before that I am good. I truly want to take care of as many animals as I can which is why I love meeting new people and new pets. Each individual always brings something special to my life. I always hope to help each family feel confident that I would care for their fur babies as they would. I love animals of all kinds. Experienced with horses, birds, fishes, snakes, and lizards. Having owned dogs and cats all my life, I trained my dogs to be well behaved. I have helped troubled dogs with behavioral issues along with basic trainings. Through my friends I did training for them and their friends by word of mouth. I have helped teach my friends dog walking techniques, commands, and helped to fix behavioral issues. Change happened because my friends did their homework and were consistent with the training I provided. I believe it is an honor to get to know you and your animal family.

My dogs immediately loved her. Larissa was a great communicator and sent regular photos. I appreciate her staying at my home with my fur babies and taking such good care of them.

This was our first time using Rover. We will definitely be repeat customers of Larissa at Rover. We have a little rescue dog that would not do well being boarded at all. She came from a bad situation. She bonded with Larissa immediately, tail wagging and sitting on her lap. Larissa also took excellent care of our koi pond. We even would’ve lost a small koi. Larissa took such care she quickly saw one of the fish had managed to get into the skimmer. She got it out and koi is fine. If she had not been watching like she was it would not have survived. All plants she kept watered too. Very grateful for the excellent service Larissa provided! F

Larissa was great! She was very attentive to my pets’ needs. You can tell that she is very pet savvy and knows how to handle different situations. I have both a dog and cat and with their approval I will definitely use her again when I need a sitter.

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.
