Hi! I’m Liv—a lifelong animal lover, treat dispenser, and professional belly rubber. I’ve been obsessed with dogs since I was 11, and I currently share my life with a scruffy little terrier mix who thinks he runs the household (he’s not wrong). My husband and I adore him—and yes, we’re those people who plan their day around the dog. Over the years, I’ve volunteered at shelters around the world, cuddled pups in three continents, and hosted more playdates than I can count. I mostly care for small to medium-sized dogs (under 25 lbs), and there are usually a few other pups hanging out during the day—think slumber party vibes but with more squeaky toys. Everyone here is friendly, vaccinated, and ready to play! I’ve got intermediate training experience and feel totally comfortable handling dogs with big personalities (and even bigger zoomies). Whether your pup is a social butterfly or more of a low-key couch potato, I meet them where they are—with love, patience, and maybe a treat or two. Okay, probably three. 🦴 A day in the life here includes 🦴 • Walks every 3–4 hours (30–40 mins each) • Lots of outdoor playtime and neighborhood exploring • Enriching activities (sniffari walks, basic training games, flirt poles if they’re into it!) • Nap spots galore • A toy collection that rivals a small pet store • And plenty of cuddles (consensual, of course) Weather permitting, I also love taking the gang on mini hikes or nature walks—though we skip Westridge Trail on Tuesdays and Thursdays since it’s still closed post-fire. Safety and comfort always come first. If your dog doesn’t have dietary restrictions, they’re welcome to enjoy my treat stash—always free of charge, always tail-wag approved. Bottom line? I treat every dog like they’re part of the family, even if they’re just with me for the day. Can’t wait to welcome your pup into the crew!

Ratings and reviews
Oliwia was absolutely fantastic and took care of our furry kids as of her own! She sent lots of pictures and videos and shared updates daily. One of my boys got a pretty bad case of allergies and she went above and beyond trying to help him. I can’t thank her and her husband Phil enough for being so caring and kind to our Cholo and Ermano!!!
Olivia is amazing! Our dog loves spending time with her and her pup. Thanks!
Olivia was so very patient with June as she needed some time to get used to new surroundings. All in all a successful boarding experience!
Amazing communication and thoughtful with my puppy, she made the it much easier to leave my new puppy for the day. Will def book with her again :)
Olivia is amazing with Frodo! He has the best time with her and her family. She’s very responsive and sends a lot great photos. He comes back home as happy as can be.
Olivia was such a fantastic sitter, I am definitely booking with her again. She was very responsive and kept me up to date about my dog and sent tons of photos. She also let me know when he has a bit of an issue and if I had solutions to resolve it. I appreciate her transparency. She also helped me keep my dog clean, especially around his eyes where he has issues. Thank you Olivia!

Schedule
Currently I take care of dogs full time and I dedicate my whole time and attention to making sure they are happy, excited and have the best time.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Your pup’s safety is my top priority—and honestly, I’m a little extra about it. Dogs are never left alone under any circumstances while in my care. There are always cozy spots to nap, clean bowls for water, and a whole buffet of plush beds and squeaky toys to choose from. We go on walks every 3–4 hours (or more if your dog prefers frequent sniff breaks), and I always keep things flexible depending on your pup’s energy level and needs. I only host small, friendly dogs under 25 lbs, and everyone gets along like a tiny tail-wagging pack. Expect a safe, clean, and loving home where your dog is treated like royalty—with belly rubs on demand.

A typical day
Mornings usually start with happy tail wags, a little group sniff session, and a walk around the neighborhood to get those paws moving. Then it’s back home for playtime—with access to a wide variety of toys (some crinkle, some squeak, all approved by my in-house toy inspector: my terrier). We take regular potty breaks throughout the day, spend time in the yard (or head out on nature walks when weather allows), and of course, fit in some well-deserved nap time. Cuddles are always available, and for the food-motivated crowd, I keep a stash of healthy treats—free of charge and full of love (unless your pup has dietary restrictions, in which case I follow your rules like a pro). With multiple friendly dogs around, your pup will always have company—but I make sure everyone gets individual attention too. It’s like summer camp, but fluffier.
