I have a very flexible schedule and am happy to adjust to your dog's normal routine. Most days I work from home and have many opportunities to step outside for breaks and walks. I like to take the dogs out every few hours, alternating between quick potty breaks and longer walks.

Safety, trust & environment

I am currently only dog sitting in the owner's (e.g. your) home. I find that dogs are often the most comfortable in their own home.

Information Olivia C. would like to know about your pet

I completely trust you with whatever is most important for you to share with me. Here are some basic things that can be helpful to discuss before your dog's stay! -your dog's schedule for eating, sleeping, and walks/bathroom -how your dog does with other dogs, strangers -how your dog does with separation -any behavior issues and/or behavioral rules you would like me to enforce, if applicable -anything else you think I should know to keep your dog healthy & happy!

A typical day

I walk dogs throughout the neighborhood. I try to optimize walks to make sure the dogs are getting the sweet spot of good exercise and stimulation out of the walk but without ever exerting themselves beyond their physical limits. When we are back home, I like to play with the dogs and also relax with them and enjoy a calm environment.

PhD student seeking to pet sit!

Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs throughout my youth, and have been pet sitting dogs throughout my adult life for several years. I love caring for dogs. I take dog sitting seriously and aim to give your dog a maximally healthy and happy experience while they are with me. I'm a very responsible and dependable person who values good and open communication and care to learn what works best for you and your dog!

Olivia was truly wonderful!! She took such good care of my little girl, and was simply delightful to work with! She was extremely communicative and sent lots of pics! Can’t say enough good things about the whole experience!! Will definitely use Olivia next time we go out of town!

I felt comfortable w Olivia the moment we met and I could tell my dogs agreed based on how they immediately attached themselves to her. Olivia did a great job w our boys over the weekend and did such a great job of keeping in touch. Would definitely use her again!
