Reliable, Loving Care for Your Pets

Hi! I’m Larissa, I just retired from the Air Force and am a lifelong animal lover. As a dog and cat owner myself, I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone who will treat them like family. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, medication, or just calm and dependable companion while you’re away, I’m happy to help. I’m reliable, communicative and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’ll send plenty of photo updates so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, loved, and having fun!

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet's safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. During every visit, I'll follow your care instructions carefully, including feeding, fresh water, medications (if needed), potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of affection. I'll make sure doors and gates are securely closed, keep your home tidy, and respect your property as if it were my own.

Larissa went above and beyond taking care of our two senior dogs! She sent us detailed updates and photos for each visit. It was a huge relief knowing our dogs were being loved and well taken care of while we were away. We highly recommend Larissa as a pet sitter, and we will definitely be booking her again when we travel. Thank you!

Larissa is one of the most caring, dependable, and responsible people I know. She genuinely loves animals and treats every pet with patience, kindness, and attention. You can trust that she will care for your pets as if they were her own, keeping them safe, happy, and well cared for. I highly recommend Larissa to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet caregiver. We have two cats and two dogs and she treats them Like our own kids. Your puppy/cats will be in good hands with Larissa.

Schedule

I'm a newly retired Air Force Senior Master Sergeant, which means I have the flexibility to provide dependable, attentive pet care throughout the week. As a lifelong animal lover and current dog and cat owner, I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe and well cared for while you're away. Whether it's feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, or just keeping your pets company, I'll treat them like they're my own. I'll also send regular photo updates so you can have peace of mind while you're gone.
