Experienced dog lover & rescue mom

Pet care experience

I am a public health professional and dog lover based in the DMV area! I worked/volunteered hundreds of hours at Pitt County Animal Shelter over 4+ years, frequently foster rescue dogs and dog-sit for friends and family, and have spent time helping veterinary facilities with testing, grooming, and animal care. In Eastern NC, I helped to found a heartworm treatment program, walked and ran rescue dogs each week, and am well-connected with the local animal rescue community. I love caring for dogs of all needs and life stages, and I am really experienced with caretaking for pets. I am experienced with basic grooming and dog care tasks and have worked with a broad range of pups with different behavioral challenges. I am patient, gentle, experienced, and have plenty of references to share. I would love to help care for your pup. On walks/visits, I will send plenty of pictures of your pup and keep your updated to give you extra peace of mind that your dog is happy and healthy.

Olivia is amazing with dogs- she has loved on so many fosters and given me incredibly advice when I was helping out with my roommates' dogs. Olivia has a kindness and compassion to her that extends to both humans and dogs- she is understanding of dogs with unique needs and backgrounds, and treats them as if they are her own. Would 10/10 recommend Olivia for all your dog caregiving needs!

Olivia is one of the most caring and knowledgeable person I know. She loves animals with her whole being and has dedicated a great deal of her young life to helping them. Olivia is dedicated to saving them all and, in the process, making sure that animals don't have to endure pain and suffering. It takes a very strong individual to help animals that others have cast aside, but Olivia doesn't hesitate. She cares and she cares with her whole heart. You can trust your fur-babies with Olivia....I promise you that.

Olivia is a responsible and incredibly reliable person. She has worked with animals for years and genuinely loves their company. She would be a wonderful caregiver to any dog she comes into contact with. Her kindness, punctuality, and background would make her your ideal dog caregiver!

I have a sweet pup named Milo, who is 1 year old and really dog friendly. If you and your pup are comfortable, I’m happy to bring Milo along for walks so your pup gets some supervised social time too. For in-home boarding, it’s required of course that your pup is dog friendly, since Milo will be here.
