Pet care experience

Enthusiastic Animal Lover

I recently relocated to Melbourne from the US and am eager to start working with some Aussie fur babies! During my time at home, I decided to do a career change to dog training and behavioral work. I am currently still doing my coursework and acquiring training hours to eventually sit for the IAABC-CDBC exam. At home, we have a cat, and just recently had to put our dog down. She was a Boxer and 13 years old, so I have personal experience with both high-energy and senior dogs. Before that, I was living in Paris, France, and working as a full-time dog nanny for a private family. Before that, I was always watching our own pets and would also help neighbors, friends, and families as well.

Olivia was so good with the boys and I felt totally at ease on our trip! She was responsive and sent photos of them each day. I would have her stay with them anytime!

Olivia did a great job taking care of my 8 year old lab and my son’s 14 yard old pitbull. I would not hesitate to have Olivia take care of them again.

Safety, trust & environment

I currently live right along the Maribyrnong River with lots of walking paths and areas to play outside. When doing house sitting bookings, I am always respectful of the home and rules and leave it as I found it. I will be there the full time unless I have other work obligations.

A typical day

I love to go on walks and to the dog park if they are open to socializing and playing with other dogs. If not thats okay too, because we can go in the spacious front lawn area for outside activities. I also love to chill have quite time if they want more of that with cuddles and belly rubs up for grabs!

Any special needs they might have such as allergies, reactiveness to others, what motivates them, and behaviors that are typical for them. As well as anything we might want to avoid and/or work harder on. This will be both helpful for me in my training and their comfort.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
