Experienced & Caring Pet Sitter!
Pet care experience
I've both owned and cared for dogs, cats, lizards, guinea pigs, hamsters, fish, you name it! since I was little. I've always been passionate about caring for animals and have helped them to feel more calm, confident, and safe with me while we're both having a blast. I have also helped raise 2 litters of puppies, as well as training them from puppy stages to adulthood. More recently, I've adopted my own dog, Cooper, who I've learned immensely from in regards to general training as well as how to have successful, happy walks that fulfill us both.
Reviews
Olivia is by far and away the one of the most animal-oriented people I know. She has always been passionate about gold standard dog care, but I was truly impressed when I got to see her with her own dog. She is a true advocate for him, making sure to provide him with exercise, socialization, and training whenever he has a hurdle she wants him to overcome. I know she extends that same level of care to all the animals she meets. A top-notch human you will not regret working with.
Olivia is a wonderful dog sitter, she is a very caring and responsible person. Olivia cared for my dog while we went on vacation and did an excellent job!! My dog is a very nervous dog, I am very picky who I let watch him and I dont often go away, she made him feel very comfortable and helped ease his anxiety while we were away, she has a very calming personality. Olivia followed all my crazy lengthy direction and did everything just as I asked without any trouble. As well as caring for my dog she also cared very well for my small flock of sheep, chickens and cats. I would highly recommend Olivia for any pet related care.
Olivia always goes above and beyond when caring for both her own animals and others. Not only does she make sure to care for their basic physical needs, but you can tell she really cares about making the animal feel safe, loved, and happy. She's also put in many hours to learning as much as she can about dog psychology and training to ensure that she's speaking the language of whatever dog she's working with. On top of all that, she's a very trustworthy and reliable person who I absolutely feel comfortable letting into my home to care for my dog.
Olivia is great with both our pups!!!! She treats them like her own, lots of love and attention whenever she is with then. You can see her love for animals shine through when they are around. Highly recommend!

I will happily meet your pet in your home where all of their toys, treats, food, and familiar comforts are, to provide care. I'm comfortable with any size, shape, and personality of pet and will gather whatever information necessary during our introductions to ensure that I can fulfill your pet's needs to the best of my ability when caring for them.
Information Olivia C. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors I should be aware of to provide them with the best care. I'm happy to accommodate any needs your dog may have!
A typical day
I love being able to fulfill your pet's needs, both physically and mentally. If we're going on a walk, I'll make sure to switch it up and take your dog on new routes and paths so that not only are they getting physical exercise, they're getting mental exercise too! In reality, that's what tires them out more than anything. But of course I'll make time for play, too! Fetch, tug, and frisbee are some of my favorite games to play with dogs. And I'll leave some time for cuddles too, of course!
