Hi! My name is Olivia Bell, I am a Bay Area native and I joined Rover a couple of years ago. As a life long animal lover I was so excited to find an opportunity that would allow me to spend more time with animals. I have owned and cared for animals my entire life, beginning when I was 5 with my amazing golden retriever Sawyer, then with my Yorkie mix Lily. After moving away from home I’ve really missed having dogs in my life so I decided to join rover. I am a trained volunteer for my local animal shelter, I have personally trained my own dogs as well as those of friends, and I worked for over 6 years on a ranch with a wide range of animals including 10 dogs. I have extensive experience pet sitting and house sitting for neighbors, family friends and now over a couple dozen rover dogs, so it's fair to say I have worked with a wide range of dog breeds, sizes, and personalities. I am a responsible, experienced, and a devoted animal lover and I would love the opportunity to care for your pet. I am happy to meet prior to booking anything so that you feel comfortable leaving me to look after something so valuable. Please reach out with any questions or concerns, I look forward to meeting you and your canine companion!
