7. Olivia C.
“I can’t recommend Olivia enough for watching my cat, Powder! From the moment she stepped in, it was clear she truly cares about animals. She was so attentive to Powder's needs and took the time to get to know her little quirks and preferences. Powder, who’s usually a bit shy around strangers, instantly warmed up to Olivia — it was clear that Olivia’s calm and loving nature made her feel safe and comfortable. Olivia went above and beyond in ensuring Powder had the best care while I was away. She kept me updated with regular photos and sweet messages, which really put my mind at ease. Olivia even noticed a few things I hadn’t, like when Powder’s favorite toy went missing and found it for her. It was such a thoughtful touch! When I returned home, Powder was happy, healthy, and clearly well-loved. I could tell she had been treated with nothing but kindness and respect. I will absolutely be asking Olivia to watch Powder again in the future! She's a true cat lover, and I’m so grateful for her exceptional care.”

About: I’ve had a mix of small and big dogs my whole life, also have had cats! I love animals and am great with them. I have a great dane right now and a cat, up until 2 years ago I had a pitbull mix , before that I had a small poodle mutt mix! My grandparents have a 2 year old golden retriever puppy and I took care of her a lot! I’m currently in high school about to graduate in May. In a few weeks when cheer is over and in summer I will have a lot of free time and would love to come play with your pups! Weekdays and weekends i’m free. I’m going to college in August to Ball State! I love all pets and welcome them into my home. I have a fenced in yard at my house at my moms in anderson! She has a great dane but my dad’s house is in Fortville and he doesn’t have any animals and he has a big yard! I could take your pups to either house, whichever you prefer!
