Safety, trust & environment
Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, their safety, comfort, and happiness always come first. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, keep your & their space clean and safe, and send regular updates (& pics). Any specific instructions should be discussed ahead of time, otherwise I’ll ask questions as they arise. I am highly attentive to communications (messaging/calls) when pet sitting for everyone’s sake! I live in a spacious, 2-bed 1 bath, 1st floor sunny apartment with plenty of room to play & relax. I have a lots of cat/dog toys available, & happy to use yours too. My neighborhood is safe and quiet, with quick access to the street for potty breaks & right around the corner from a beautiful park!
Information olivia a. would like to know about your pet
The more I know the better: routines, quirks, training cues, medical needs, off-limit areas/words/items, behavioral concerns, or social preferences. I’m patient, adaptable, and happy to work with all temperaments. No judgments here, just excitement to learn & care for your pet as best I can.
A typical day
Your pet’s day with me will be fun, fulfilling & tailored to their personality. I love both a high-energy explorer and a mellow couch buddy. Depending, we will go on lots of “sniffari’s”, visit nearby parks, play fetch, & take plenty of cuddle/nap breaks. I prioritize keeping pets mentally & physically engaged, and can check in with you as often as you’d like. (PS- if they have a favorite activity, please share!)

Pet care experience
I’ve spent my whole life around animals — from helping raise dogs, cats, birds, bunnies, and hamsters in my own home, to professionally pet sitting and walking since I was a a young teen. What sets me apart is how naturally and intuitively I connect with animals of all kinds and how deeply I care about making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved when they're with me! I’ve had the unique (& humbling😄) experience of raising & training (crate, potty, leash) a beagle puppy as a 15-yr-old, while also helping my senior golden retriever through end-of-life care. I've also fostered and understand the unique needs of different breeds, temperaments, and how to meet pups where they're at. Whether it’s managing an energetic puppy's exercise routine, gently caring for a senior pet's slower pace, or understanding how to read a timid dog's body language—I’m highly attuned to the needs of every pet & always happy to follow special instructions.😊 My ultimate goal is to make sure your pet feels right at home with me & give you complete peace of mind knowing they’re in the most loving, reliable hands possible!

Reviews
Olivia has carried out daily drop in visits for our bunny for two weeks and she has been a great sitter. Very reliable, caring, and good at handling the task which included giving food, water, hay, vegetables, and cleaning of the enclosure. As an emergency appeared and Albert needed meditation, Olivia did not hesitate to take on the task of giving him medicine. Communication has been very good and instructions were followed. I highly recommend Olivia as a trusted sitter and will not hesitate to book her again.
Olivia walked Zuko for me for nearly 2 weeks, and did an amazing job! Zuko is a reactive dog who is not the easiest to walk, but she has the mindfulness to navigate those situations as well as being receptive to anything I shared about him. Would recommend :)
Olivia was an awesome sitter for our shy cat, helping him warm up quickly, and also did a great job keeping our plants alive. We so appreciate her communication and attentiveness.
Olivia took such great care of our frenchie and Great Dane! We booked with Olivia such last minute, and she was so accommodating! Definitely will rebook!
