Dog Care and Training Professional

Pet care experience

Hi! I'm Oli and I love dogs with all my heart. I'm caring for dogs via Rover full-time right now and am highly available. I had a dog for 13 years of my life who nurtured the love and joy that I get from spending time around dogs. Throughout my childhood I often took care of my neighbors’ pets and always had wonderful experiences, which is how I ended up working at a professional doggy daycare as my first job. From there, I moved on to spend over a year working at an animal shelter, where I learned extensively about dog behavior and training, medical issues, and the best practices for animal care. I’ve worked with dogs of all shapes, sizes, breeds, and temperaments, as well as cats, reptiles, and small mammals, and I’m happy to help with any furry or scaly friends you have! My years of experience allow me to provide your pet with all the tender loving care they deserve. I’ve never met a dog I didn’t love and I can’t wait to meet yours!

Oli was great with my high energy pitt bull pup! I would happily book another stay in the future. Thanks for watching Wilber!

Oli was really good with our two dogs. Oli watched them in our home and was consistent in keeping us updated while we were away. Oli was great at following the instructions we left and we were at ease knowing our dogs were well cared for. One of our dogs is older and has some health issues and Oli followed his special diet and other specifications. We really appreciated the care Oli provided.

I have 3 years of full-time professional experience in caring for dogs in group and individual environments, including doggy daycare, dog parks, clients’ homes, and animal shelters. I can offer training sessions in Basic Manners, confidence building for shy or fearful dogs, and sessions to release energy for high energy pups.

Information Olivia G. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know a little bit about your pup- Who are they? What are their eating habits and walking habits? How do they usually approach strangers? What about strange dogs? Do they have any medical conditions or medications that I should be aware of? Favorite toys? Favorite treats?

A typical day

We will go on walks around DC or your neighborhood and play fetch in the park! We can also play brain games and spend time together at your home to help your pup stay comfortable with a new person watching them.
