Hello! I am a recent graduate from Appalachian State University with a degree in Agroecology (sustainable agriculture). In Boone I worked on a farm with livestock such as goats, chickens, and pigs. I also worked with children ages 4-14 for two years at High Country Forest WIld- an all outdoor experiential education program. I also balanced taking care of my two cats while having loads of schoolwork and trying to maintain a social life. Now I'm back home in the triangle and eager to continue working with animals, as its one of the things that brings me feel joy. Petsitting allows me a flexible job while I navigate this next chapter of my life and gives me another way to connect with the community in another way. I cherish each chance to meet everyone's furry companions & learn more about people outside of my daily rhythms. I am an avid hiker, runner, and nature lover, so am always happy to take along any pet that's down for an adventure to the nearby trails. I've watched houses with up to 7 dogs at a time, so I'm very comfortable with multiple animals and giving each one the attention they need.

No one knows your pet better than you. So whatever information you would like to provide for me to know their needs while you're away would be appreciated. Such as the way they take their medication best, places they love to go, how they handle interacting with new animals/people, and any triggering behavior to look out for.

Pet care experience
I have a lot of experience with dogs, cats, and birds. I have administered medication for older cats and dogs, fed and rode horses, learned how to intervene safely in the event of a dog altercation, and love just spending time with pets of all types and sizes. As I kid, before everyone had a smartphone, I made fliers for dog walking and petsitting, and spread them in nearby neighborhoods. Throughout late elemtary school and middle school I did loads of dog walking and caring for pets while their owners were away. In high school my time was more consumed by schoolwork and sports, but I was still exposed to petsitting though my brother who did Rover constantly. I spent lots of time with him, and observed his tender and efficient care for the animals he looked after.

Reviews
Oliver house sat for us for a 4 day trip. He was lovely to talk to and was very attentive to the needs of our two dogs and our cat. I appreciated the pictures, communication, and attention to details. We look forward to having him again!
Oliver did an incredible job taking care of our dog and cat while we were away. He sent lots of photos and updates, took our dog on several hikes, and left our house spotless. Grateful to have such a considerate pet sitter who clearly loves animals.
Oliver has always had a deep, natural love for animals, and it really shows in the way he cares for his own. He’s patient, attentive, and genuinely enjoys spending time with them, not just watching over them. I’ve seen firsthand how he makes sure they feel safe, loved, and part of the family. I have no doubt he’ll treat your fur baby with the same care and warmth as if they were his own.
I’m Oliver’s father and I have seen how much he loves and cares for pets, whether his own or those of neighbors. In his pre-teen years he helped a neighbor who was recovering from cancer by taking her dog on daily walks in the neighborhood. Later he fed and spent time daily with another neighbor's two dogs for two weeks while they were out of town. More recently, a few years ago he adopted a kitten from a shelter and it has been a pleasure to see how attached to one another they have become, a testament to the genuine love and care that he provides. You can be confident that Oliver will provide the same level of care for your pet(s).
