Skills
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, 3-bed 2-bath, 2nd story sunny apartment with plenty of room to play & relax. I have a lots of cat/dog toys, but happy to use yours if applicable. My neighborhood is very safe and quiet, with quick access to the street for potty breaks & right around the corner from a beautiful park with a fenced-in play area - plus walking distance from 2 fenced dog parks for extra exercise & playtime.

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 took wonderful care of Clifford!
Olivia is amazing ! She is super responsible and flexible , very communicative , and took great care of Daisy. THANK YOU!
Olivia was engaging, consistent & overall a lovely pet-taker during Yoshi’s full-week stay. Both me & my pup would be overjoyed to utilize her services again 🐾!
Tommy had a great first day with Olivia! She was very accommodating to him and gave us updates throughout the day on how he was doing which put us at ease as he can be an anxious pup and have difficultly adjusting to new people and situations. We will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!
