Safety, trust & environment

I only care for pets within your own home - as my pup at home is a grumpy teenager who likes her space. I also like to do home sitting because it’s less stress on the pup and they’re more comfortable in their environment. I am happy to do as many meet and greets as you would like - I have many references and lots of returning clients. I typically will request a note of certain important things (food amt/time to eat/ favorite toys/ odd behaviors etc.). I keep very open communication between myself and my clients and will keep you updated as much as you'd like. I understand that safety and trust is a very big factor, so I am comfortable with any active cameras inside or outside to make you feel comfortable. Some clients will have me shut the indoor ones off once I arrive - and others have kept them on. Please make sure to provide me any information that you feel necessary - I am very easy going and happy to follow any specific guidelines you may have.

Information Olivia A. would like to know about your pet

Any preferences you have as an owner, anything that I should be aware of going on walks - triggers and any allergies. Anything you find necessary. If water needs to be pulled up at a certain time, any medicine needs, spots of where they like to go to the bathroom (if specific) - and if they have any injury, spot of concern, or anything medical going on. I like to be prepared and aware of things so I don't have to bother you with any questions while you're away.

A typical day

I am happy to do anything that your dog loves! Going for walks, playing with the ball, using any enrichment toys (as approved), and most definitely cuddles if your pet allows! At home I love doing enrichment with my dog as she is older - I typically will use carrots as treats and throw them in the lawn for her to go sniff and find. I am comfortable bringing your dog along for any car rides as permitted - and will stay at the home for the majority of time minus grocery shopping or a quick errand.

Pet care experience

When I originally thought of pet care, I had my dog Lily in mind. Lily came with her quirks and boundaries that were necessary that anyone who came in contact with her had to follow. Anyone who cared for my dog made sure to follow any concerns I had and made sure to be flexible with me as she is quite literally my child. With who Lily is, I brought that thought process into how I care for others dogs. Although I’ve been around all kinds of dogs my whole life with my dad being a trainer and boarder himself - I have a different type of respect and bond with animals and their owners. I want to make sure I am giving the care that you would give your animal - and that you feel the utmost comfortable leaving your precious pup in my care. If you have a puppy that is currently training I will make sure to follow the routine that you are working on. I am always available to any of your questions or concerns and able to answer back very quickly. I am currently enrolled in a training program for obedience training and look forward to offering services of that nature soon, and other training as I get going. All in all, dogs/animals are my world, and you can see it through my love, Lily. She requires extra love and kisses - but also as a rescue is timid of loud noises, barking dogs etc. I’ve continued to preach understanding dogs boundaries, and making them feel the utmost comfortable within their environment. I understand not every dog likes to be smothered with love, and some find love as just simply going on a walk. It would be a pleasure keeping your pup comfortable and happy! I will treat your dog as if they are my own, and will definitely take some cute photos for you!

Olivia was amazing and took such wonderful care of our boy Gunther! She kept us updated the whole time with photos and stories from their adventures together, which gave us so much peace of mind. Gunther looked so happy and well-loved. Thank you so much, Olivia! We couldn’t have asked for better care. :)

Olivia was very accommodating for a last minute dog sitting request and did two meet and greets leading up to it because my dog can be nervous around new people. They clicked well immediately and it was a huge relief to leave Sadie in great hands. Sadie had a blast with Olivia and I will definitely have Olivia watch Sadie in the future!
