Reliable Amherst-based pet sitter
Pet care experience
For as long as I can remember, I've always loved and taken care of animals. I was an owner of 2 Maincoon cats and my Golden retriever, Hal, for 13 years and we also had a Boxer for 2 years. Our family now has a new member, a 1 year old hound mix named Lucy. I've almost never found an animal I didn't get along with, because I think there's something to love in absolutely every one of them! I'm very cautious when taking care of my or other people's pets, and I will do anything within my power to prevent any animal from getting hurt or lost. I'd love to meet new pets this summer; my family just got an adorable new puppy, Lucy, and I'm sure she'd love another friend to play with!
Reviews
Liv was fantastic! Would definitely rebook if our timing aligns again when she's back in town!
Liv T. cancelled a booking 2 days before it was scheduled to begin.
Liv has cared for a lot of pets and the owners have always been more than satisfied with her performance. She cares so much about ensuring the wellbeing of the pets she's taking care of. She's super flexible and always wants to take care of animals and help people out. I 100% recommend her as a pet sitter!
She was so sweet with my puppy?

Safety, trust & environment
Our apartment is pet friendly and has a large, partially fenced in field with a forest in the back for longer walks. Our puppy is too young to take walks off the leash, so we've been very careful about making sure she doesn't get herself into trouble or run away. She likes to eat everything on the floor, so we've made sure our apartment is "puppy friendly" so animals won't be eating anything that could hurt them. She's also recently undergone surgeries that have made it so she can't go into the woods or get wet, so we've gotten used to taking care of a relatively high maintenance dog so she doesn't accidentally get hurt in any way. I have no difficulty potentially getting injured for the sake of my dog's safety. I've had experiences in the past where dogs under my care have gotten into physical altercations with other dogs, and I've never had much of an issue inserting myself into a scuffle to keep both dogs from getting hurt.
Information Liv T. would like to know about your pet
I have no specific preference, but please let me know if your dog has specific or unusual indicators that they need a walk, bathroom, attention, etc, or if they're especially violent.
A typical day
Playing with dogs is so much fun! I have a bunch of dog toys, treats, and outdoor space for your pets, and nearly unlimited time to hang out with them. There's a trail in the woods behind my apartment, as well as a beautiful creek and paths all along the apartment to walk dogs.

Availability
I'm a student at Umass Amherst that would love to fill the gaps in my schedule by taking care of animals. i have a lot of free time and since I'm away from my dog back at home, I'd love to spend more time with animals in my everyday life and I'm nearly always available. NOTICE: I will be in South Carolina from June until the end of August. I'll still take dogsitting requests in the area at that time, but services in Amherst will resume at the beginning of September.
