Highlights
Pet care experience
Happy walks & loving check-ins 🐾
I have grown up surrounded by animals and have always had a strong love and understanding of pets. I have had dogs throughout my life, including a Labrador for 12 years and currently have my 7-year-old Cockapoo, Monty, who is energetic, friendly and loves walks, cuddles and playing tug of war. I regularly walk him at local nature reserves, provide his meals, grooming, bathing and brushing, and make sure he receives plenty of exercise, enrichment and attention. I also have experience caring for a variety of dogs through my mum’s dog sitting business, where I regularly help look after dogs in our home and join in with walks and care routines. I have looked after many breeds including Cockapoos, Shih Tzus, King Charles Spaniels, Maltese, Bichon Frises, Cavapoos, Dachshunds, Yorkies, French Bulldogs, Cocker Spaniels, Springer Spaniels and more. I understand that every dog has different needs and personalities. I have experience caring for nervous dogs who need reassurance, more independent dogs who prefer their own space, energetic dogs who need lots of play and exercise, puppies learning routines, and older dogs who may need extra patience, guidance with mobility, medication or a calmer pace. I enjoy making dogs feel comfortable, safe and loved while their owners are away. Whether it’s going for a walk, having playtime, giving cuddles, keeping to their usual routine or cleaning up after puppies during toilet training, I am happy to provide reliable and caring support for every dog I look after.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
When caring for your dog, I will make sure to stick to their normal routine as consistent as possible. I will follow your instructions regarding feeding, toilet breaks, exercise, medication and any specific needs your dog may have. During check-ins, I will spend time giving your dog attention, play, cuddles and reassurance, while also making sure they have everything they need. For walks, I will make sure your dog is safely secured before leaving the home, follow the owner’s preferences for routes and exercise, and provide a safe and enjoyable walk. I will always respect your home, communicate any updates and provide photos so you know your dog is happy and well cared for.
Ratings and reviews
I am happy to provide a testimonial for Olivia as she regularly supports me with the dogs I look after for my own dog sitting business. I currently have over 50 five star reviews and Olivia has played a big part in helping me achieve that. She is very loving with the dogs we look after and always ensures they have all that they need when I am busy. She has cared for her dog, rabbits and gecko independently for the last 8 years and adapts to all their individual needs, so I am confident that she will continue to do this when caring for other dogs.

Schedule
I am currently studying at university and have a flexible routine that allows me to fit dog walks and check-ins around my timetable. I am available all day on my non-university days and holidays but I am also happy to offer evening visits after university. I understand that dogs thrive on routine, so I will always make sure I have enough time to provide reliable care, exercise and attention.
