Hello! My name is Olivia. Im 25 years old and my area of expertise is understanding the behavior of pets. Now im using that knowledge for safety and comfort! My pricing tor overnight sittings is based on a 24 hour period. If you are in need of less than 18 hours of care, let me know and we can discuss pricing alternatives. I am always ready and available to care for your babies in your home! Luckily, I'm comfortable staying in peoples homes, as well as being a natural at caring for any type of animal, which comes in handy when that’s what you want to do as a job. I currently have a limited yet growing amount of experience caring for birds and reptiles, but, on the other hand, I have a large amount of experience caring for cats. (even though they are very good at caring for themselves) My experience with dogs has been consistent throughout my profession as well. I’ve administered medicine orally and topically for both cats and dogs on numerous occasions, such as hot spot care and feeding through a syringe. Ive worked full-time at PetSmart as a Professional Dog Bather for 2 and a half years, as well as The Soggy Doggy. I’ve been working professionally with domesticated animals for about 7 years, and it has given me a great amount of experience working with different size, temperaments, and needs in regards to dogs, cats and many unique pets that are out there. Most of my professional work is specific to dogs, but I’ve personally owned cats my entire life and owned rats for a couple years as well. I am experienced in giving medicine, bathing, other smaller grooming services, and even basic training. Over the years I’ve developed strong arms and thighs, which are helpful in an emergency. Due to an automobile accident I cannot offer consistent physical intervention for the higher active dogs but I do my best to be reliable. If you’d like me to work on some basic training, that is a skill I can work with your furry friend with as well! (Ex: Sit, Lay down, Off, Come, Go to bed) I have trained many of my clients’ dogs all of these. I am a strong believer that dogs will do most anything for their favorite treat! I am hoping to work with those who need quality sitting in a comfortable environment. Typically, I handle meetings in the home. Some pets (dogs) are more comfortable meeting outside the home or a nearby locations before moving inside. What is most comfortable for the pet, is most comfortable for me. Introductions are a great idea before leaving a pet. I, personally, prefer to have a compiled list of each pets daily tasks ready for me to reference at any time. Any questions you may still have, I’m always ready to answer and I hope you consider me for your pet caring needs!
