Loving Care from Lifelong Pet Owner
Pet care experience
Hi, I'm glad you found me! I love caring for pets as I have cared for many in my life. My family has owned a shih tzu, collies, labradors, golden retrievers, and gray tabby cats throughout my life, and now my bf and I have two huskies of our own. My boyfriend and I moved to Raleigh in Sep 2019 and before long, we were searching for our own canine companion. We rescued an adorable 8 month old white Husky puppy, we named her Ashe, and we love her so much. We've learned a lot from owning and training her. Recently, we adopted "a Husky for our Husky"; a Shepsky that we named Senna. They play and wrestle all day and keep each other active and sharp.

Olivia took care of our 7 year old boxer and boxer mix while we were out of town and we felt very comfortable leaving them in her care. She is calm and gentle with the dogs. Even our anxious female who will not eat if she is stressed ate well for Olivia! She is a thoughtful, responsible, and caring pet sitter. We will be booking her again.
Olivia is an amazing Dog sitter! She was responsible, attentive, and super sweet. My Dog easily bonded with her and for the first time didn't hunger strike. She sent lots of pictures and videos and made me feel less bad about leaving him while we vacationed across country. As a bonus, she noticed my outdoor plants dying and she kindly watered them to bring them back to life. I highly recommend choosing Olivia to watch your pup, i will absolutely use her again in the future!!!!
Olivia (and Anthony) did a phenomenal job caring for my 12&1/2 yr old greyhound Usain. Older dogs can be quirky and set in their ways. They followed those instructions to a tee. Going forward they’ll be my first choice for care when I’m away.
Olivia and her boyfriend were great at taking care of bailey. They live in my building so setting this up was easy and convenient! I think bailey had a great time and I would book with them again.

There is a fenced-in dog park near me that I can bring your pup to. I can walk pups on their usual route or explore new places. Message me if you think we might live in the same building or nearby!
Information Olivia H. would like to know about your pet
I have a checklist of items that I review with each new client; this includes basic things like where doggy food is located and how to enter the home, and other needs like medication, feeding/walking schedule, and relationships/comfort levels with other dogs.
A typical day
I make sure to give lots of attention and pets to the dogs that I watch, and I match their energy level when it comes to play. I have huskies myself so I understand the needs of very active dogs, but I have cared for senior dogs who prefer shady walks and cool ground to rest. I am very attentive to their individual needs.
Services
Olivia can watch in your home
Availability
I work from home full-time (outside of COVID) so I am usually flexible to stop by at any time of the day to accommodate your pet's schedule. I have a car or a bike I can use but I tend to walk to client's homes when I can.
