Highlights
Pet care experience
Timely Lover of ALL Animals!
I’ve had pets since I was 7, trained my first dog at 3 months to sit, paw, lay down, and use the doggy door. For about 5 years I had 2 dogs, 3 cats, and a bird who were all loved *nearly* equally. As they have got older, I have experience with senior dogs and cats as well as pups. I am a sophomore at DePaul University in Chicago and I volunteer at a local no-kill animal shelter/adoption center, PAWS Chicago, where I socialize and care for puppies and kittens.

Safety, trust & environment
In any new environment, I approach new animals calmly and slowly to gauge their feelings or stress-level to earn trust. I can leash dogs with ease for walks and cleanup any mess they may have made. If needed, I can crate before leaving or complete feedings/give medicine if given instructions.
Ratings and reviews
Olivia did an amazing job watching my elderly dog, Sophie. Olivia watched Sophie for a week while we were away. She did an amazing job! She administered Sophie’s medication twice a day with no problems. She gave her nice walks and even carried her up the stairs, since Sophie has arthritis in her back legs. I HIGHLY recommend using Olivia!!
Olivia has been absolutely amazing with my dog, Barkley! From day one, she has been reliable, caring, and so attentive. Barkley gets so excited every time she comes to walk him, which says everything about how comfortable and happy he feels with her. Olivia is always on time, communicates well, and treats Barkley like her own. It gives me such peace of mind knowing he’s in such good hands when I can’t be there. I truly appreciate the love and care she puts into what she does. I highly recommend Olivia to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, kind, and dependable to care for their pet!
Olivia is wonderful with our dog. She plays with him in the yard and walks him well on the leash. She gives lots of pets and snuggles. She’s also followed our directions for feeding and medications as well. She has also taken care of feeding, cleaning litter and giving medicine to our cat. I highly recommend her!

Schedule
I am a college student currently home for the summer so I have loads of downtime to care for pups! For walks and house visits, I am available after 8am any day of the week.
