Local dog walker here to help!
Pet care experience
My name is Olivia. I have had dogs all my life. I have experience with various breeds, large and small, energetic and not so much. I am a dog owner myself, so I know how important your dog is to you! I have taken care of pets for neighbors, friends, and family since I was old enough to care for an animal on my own. I have done professional dog walking for the last four years. I currently offer walk and drop-in services.
Reviews
Olivia is our go-to since we moved to DC. She’s absolutely wonderful and always leaves the most detailed notes. My pup loves her.
Olivia was so wonderful! I felt so at ease knowing that she was taking care of my dog while I was gone for the day. Plus, the pictures she sent were super adorable :)
Olivia is so good to my dog Boo, and she is sooo dependable!!
Olivia was a great pet sitter! She sent me updates every day, my dog was definitely well cared for while we were away, thank you Olivia!

Safety, trust & environment
Your pet's safety is my top priority! I am very careful opening and closing doors when I come in. I will always make sure your home is locked while we are away on walks. When walking, dogs' safety and health is my top priority. I always keep the dogs in the shade and may cut the walk short on hot days. I always make sure they have water when I leave, and I can absolutely feed your dog at your request.
Information Olivia B. would like to know about your pet
If you can, let me know if your dog has any reactivity or triggers on walks or if you'd like me to reinforce any training you're working on with them. I also appreciate a heads-up about a pup's behavior when you're entering the home, like if they might bark, or if they're skittish, etc. Please let me know if you have any cats in the home, as I am allergic (I can still care for your pets- I just need to know so I can take allergy medicine). Please also confirm that your dog is up to date on their vaccines. I'm here to help your pets!
A typical day
On walks, I'm happy to go at whatever pace is most comfortable with your dog and I let them sniff to their heart's content (unless this is a problem for some reason). I will follow all your instructions and recommendations! For drop-in visits, I'm happy to let your pet out to go to the bathroom, give food and/or water, and anything else you ask for. And of course, a healthy dose of playtime is always included!

I am a teacher. I work during the school year, but I have plenty of time to care for your pets during the summer! I look forward to meeting you and your pets!
