American Student and Dog Lover Ready to Play!
Pet care experience
I have owned dogs from the time I was five and haven't taken a break! I now have 2 dogs of my own who have gone through obedience training. Although I am not a professional trainer, taking my own dogs has helped me to recognize canine behavior along with training to walk and behave better. All of my dogs have struggled with reactivity, so I have been able to learn how to handle them when in that situation! I am simply known as 'the dog lover; by friends and family as I see no dog as "bad". Although some can be more difficult, they are struggling too. I miss my dogs back in the states dearly and would love to fill that hole with another buddy to hang out with from time to time.
Reviews
Olivia came to our rescue last minute to house sit our 18th old big bulldog for a weekend. This was Olivia’s second time working with us. We are super grateful to her for her professionalism and kindness. Our large, stubborn, and thoroughly spoiled pooch was so happy to see Olivia again, and definitely missed her when she left! Lucky boy got lots of walkies and lucky owners got plenty of updates and peace of mind. Thanks again, wonderful Olivia!
Highly recommend Olivia! Olivia house-sat and cared for our beloved 17mth American Bulldog (35kg!) for three nights. Knowing Olivia had so much experience with dogs of all kinds, particularly with bull breeds (shout out to Theo!), gave us huge peace of mind. She was excellent with our pup - super calm and kind. He is quite needy, and very stubborn, but Olivia handled it all with ease and grace, AND a good sense of humour when he was being a lil spoiled brat. We got regular updates while we were away, which were really appreciated. Our flat was left in great condition when we came home, and our big-little puppy was tired from some great walkies and seemed so happy and chilled out (We think he misses her!). Thank you, Olivia! We will certainly be in touch again :)
Olivia is fantastic - she came to meet me and my dog before her first drop in. She was so friendly and my dog loved her. She took great care of my dog and home. I have already booked her again!
Olivia was fabulous. Despite some poor communication and preparation that was completely my fault, she did a fabulous job and both our house and pups were better for it. Will ask her to look after our house and pups again in the future. And she sent loads of photos of the pups while we were away. Couldn't ask for more. Thank you, Olivia.
About Olivia B.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
With past clients, I have always stayed in contact during my visit and constantly sent images and updates of their pets. Any questions that my have risen I am sure to talk to the owner to ensure the safety of everyone and build a trusting relationship between everyone.
Information Olivia B. would like to know about your pet
I would certainly like to know if there are any behavioral problems your dog encounters with anything such as dogs, people, objects, leash pulling, et Cetra. This definitely will not deter me from your dog, as I have experienced these as well, but I would like to keep them as comfortable and calm as possible.
A typical day
I am newer to this area of London and have loved exploring all the new parks in my area, whichever is closest to your home, or your pet's favorite, I am willing to make the journey. With my own pups, I've loved just chasing them around and playing catch, tug of war, or whatever else they enjoy. I also love to hang out, if your dog is tired or elderly, I would be more than happy to bask in the sun on a blanket, or have a slow-paced walk around the block.
