Leaving your pet behind is never easy, especially when your work or personal commitments require you to travel. Many pets can feel lonely or even abandoned if they are not supported properly during this time. As a pet owner, you want to know they are not just being looked after, but that they feel safe, calm, and emotionally supported.

Hi, I'm Larissa. I offer reliable, caring pet-sitting services in Ho Chi Minh City, designed for pet owners who want genuine peace of mind while they are away.

A Gentle and Trustworthy Approach

I have lived with animals for as long as I can remember. Cats and dogs have always been part of my family, and over the years, I have developed a natural sensitivity to their needs, moods, and boundaries.

For me, pet sitting is not simply a service. It is a vocation rooted in gentleness and patience. I feel deeply at ease around other people's animals, and I approach each pet with respect, calm attention, and care. I do not rush trust or force interaction. I allow each animal the time and space they need to feel comfortable in my presence.

This quiet, steady approach is why many of my clients return to me. I often see pets grow more relaxed with each visit. What may begin as loneliness gradually becomes familiarity, and over time, a sense of safety.

How I Care for Your Pet

Every pet is different, and I believe care should always adapt to the animal, not the other way around.

Before any sitting begins, I always arrange a meeting with you and your pet. This allows us to establish familiarity, routine, and a sense of safety. It also gives your pet the opportunity to get to know me without pressure.

While caring for your pet, I focus on:

  • Respecting their individual personality and pace
  • Providing consistent routines
  • Offering calm companionship and emotional reassurance
  • Ensuring their physical needs are met with care and attention

My goal is for your pet to feel supported, not abandoned, and for their daily life to remain as stable and stress-free as possible.

Services Offered

I currently offer the following pet care services in Ho Chi Minh City:

  • Hourly pet sitting and daily visits
  • Overnight stays
  • Walks
  • Regular photo and video updates
  • Medication administration, following clear owner instructions

I am not a veterinarian. If a medical issue arises, I will act responsibly and take your pet to a veterinary clinic, keeping you informed at every step.

Communication, Reliability, and Peace of Mind

Many pet owners tell me that the photo and video updates help them travel or work with far less anxiety. They can see their pet eating well, resting peacefully, and engaging calmly, which reassures them that everything is truly fine.

You can expect consistency, reliability, and clear communication from me at all times. I respond to messages within 30 minutes and keep you informed if anything feels unusual, no matter how small.

Experience and Personal Connection

I have over three years of experience as a pet sitter, caring for both cats and dogs. I also care for my cat, Minnie, and the cats in my parents' home. When I travel myself, I know how important it is to feel confident that your pet is bonding well, eating well, sleeping well, and enjoying gentle play.

This long-term, hands-on experience has taught me the importance of emotional continuity for animals. Familiar routines, calm energy, and gentle presence make a meaningful difference.

Let Us See If This Feels Right

Choosing a pet sitter is a personal decision. It is important that it feels right for both you and your pet.

If you are a busy professional or frequent traveller seeking dependable care in Ho Chi Minh City, I invite you to get in touch. It is always worth scheduling a meeting to see if we feel like the right fit, with no obligation.

Your peace of mind and your pet's sense of safety always come first.
