Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
Safety and stress free environment is number 1. I like to get to know the pets I cared for and what their specific needs are. I have experience and am comfortable with all common leash and harness types, and confident and excited to take your pet on a walk. I have worked with and helped a handful of reactive dogs improve on their stranger danger responses when out on walks. I don’t shy away from a challenge and would love to help if I can while letting your baby get some fresh air. I am confident and comfortable using a crate, both indoors and if needed for transport in case of an emergency. In the case of an emergency medical issue, I am quick to respond and have a good relationship with several local vet hospitals. I will keep your baby safe and happy and I am always ready to accommodate their parents wishes.

Information Nova O. would like to know about your pet
I am very familiar working with dogs of all sizes and socialization levels, I just need a heads up if they have any particular struggles I should be aware of and any skills you would like me to help your dog practice. If your pet has a specific medical need, I will accommodate for that based on your instruction and desires.
A typical day
I love to play games with the pets I am watching, often incorporating training practice as part of the game. There are several local walking paths and parks I am familiar with and love to take dog friends with me to explore the smells and the nature together. Doggy day care is always a mix of what the dog and his parents what them to do. I love being out with a dog friend exploring the beauty around us, and also chilling out on my couch with them, or playing fetch on my enclosed fence balcony. I love to get to know a dogs interests and meet them at their level of energy and activity.

Pet care experience
I have been taking care of cats and dogs on and off since I was a teenager. In the last 9 or so years my love for being the “dog aunty” of my social circle has grown into a career and I have professionally cared for pets of all shapes and sizes, and with a wide range of needs and personalities. This includes caring for pets at my home and at the fur babies’ homes, day visits, grooming visits, training visits, and even overnight 24 hour sitting for up to a month at a time, with specific pets. I have also worked with several puppies and senior dogs and have had success in both introducing and reinforcing obedience training. I also have experience working with a range of pack sizes, caring for groups of 1-8 pets at a time, both large and small. In addition, I have experience caring for senior pets with special medical needs, and the necessary attention and clean up required for those pets. I love animals and I am always looking forward to meeting new animal friends.
Reviews
Nova is wonderful. I've used her multiple times and it's always a great experience.
Nova is wonderful with our frenchie! She is so dependable and loving! She is so good about sending multiple pics during her visit and sharing how they played during or details about his eating, etc. Both our family and our dog love having Nova over for dog visits!💕
Nova was great! Took good care of our kitties, playing with them and sending pictures!! Very reliable and kind.
Nova is wonderful! On time, great with Oakley!
