Highlights
Pet care experience
Islington based dog lover
I am a lover of dogs in all shapes and sizes, and would love to have some furry friends to keep me company while I work or walk around Islington. I have always had family dogs, and had two dogs of my own until last year. I am a professional woman that works full time from home for a big tech company. I live in a 2nd floor apartment so if your pup has an issue with their knees it might not be the right fit. I am comfortable with young pups, older ladies and gents who need a bit of extra care and anyone in between. My own dog also had puppies in 2021, so I know how to care for the really little ones as well or pregnant dogs. I have not worked for a service like this before, but I have always cared for my own dogs and often dog sat for friends and family's pets. The dogs in my pics are a mix of my faves - the black and white pup is my mum's dog Turkish, and the others are little ones I've looked after or hung out with.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Buddy really enjoyed staying over at Olivia’s. She was clear in her communication, kept me updated with photos of walks, and was very good over all with looking after Buddy! Definitely looking forward to next time!
Olivia was fantastic with our senior dog, Sadie. She provided plenty of photo updates throughout the stay, which gave us peace of mind and she left our home spotless. She was also very comfortable administering Sadie’s medication and handled her with care and attention. We would absolutely use Olivia again and would highly recommend her to others.
Olivia G. cancelled a booking 1 day before it was scheduled to begin.
We absolutely like Olivia! She has been looking after our doggie, Poppy, three days a week while we’re at work and we couldn’t be happier. She’s easy to communicate with, flexible and it’s clear she genuinely loves dogs and knows how to care for them. Poppy is always so excited to go to her house and comes home happy, which gives us so much peace of mind. We highly recommend Olivia to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter!
Olivia was amazing and accommodated a last minute booking.
Olivia took great care of Nelson for a couple of days and I’d book her again without hesitation. She sent regular updates and photos, which put my mind at ease, and it was clear Nelson was comfortable and happy with her the whole time. He came home relaxed and well looked after. Highly recommend her to anyone needing a reliable, caring sitter.

Schedule
I work full time from home, and have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. I work from 9-5, and work in the living room where there is a sofa for dogs to curl up on and plenty of room for us to play. Best availability is Monday to Friday, but can have some availability over the weekends depending on travel plans.

Safety, trust & environment
The apartment is on the 2nd floor, I have hardwood floors throughout the apartment and a sofa that is pet friendly. There are no other pets in this building. I live round the corner from a square with a park in it and a 10 min walk from the apartment is Highbury Fields (a lovely big park to walk around).
