Availability
I’m currently a full-time student at UWM, but I have a very flexible schedule. I attend classes three days a week, and most of my coursework can be done on my laptop. This allows me to spend plenty of quality time with your pet throughout the day and easily accommodate feedings, walks, playtime, and check-ins.

Safety, trust & environment
I care for every pet as if they were my own. I understand that for most people, pets are family, and I treat them with the same love, respect, and attention I give my own animals. When I’m caring for pets , I prioritize their safety, comfort, and routines so they feel secure and well cared for at all times.
Information Olivia K. would like to know about your pet
Before caring for your pet, it’s important for me to know about any aggression, reactivity, or behavioral concerns, as well as any areas your pet may not like to be pet. This helps me ensure their safety, comfort, and the best possible care while they’re with me.
A typical day
A typical day with me is a mix of fun, structure, and enrichment. I have five years of experience attending dog training classes with my mom, and both of my dogs are service certified. Because of this background, I enjoy working dogs not just physically, but mentally as well. Depending on the dog, our days may include walks, playtime, fetch, or swimming, along with mental enrichment activities like training refreshers, puzzle games, or “find it” games. I believe mental stimulation can be just as tiring—and rewarding—as physical exercise. For cats, I focus on calm companionship, play sessions, and respecting their routines and boundaries. Every pet’s day is tailored to their energy level, personality, and needs to make sure they feel happy, engaged, and comfortable.

Pet care experience
I’ve been caring for pets for the past 13 years, starting with walking my neighbors’ dogs multiple times a week and stopping by to let them out when their owners were away overnight. Since then, animal care has been a constant part of my life. I’ve helped care for my own dogs in every way—from off-leash walks and swimming to bathing and attending vet appointments. My family and I have also fostered dogs ranging from 8-week-old puppies to senior pups, giving me experience with dogs of all ages and needs. In addition to dogs and cats, I have extensive experience working with horses. I also have a laid-back tabby cat of my own who’s more like a dog than a cat. I’m a huge animal lover and always care for pets as if they were my own—providing the same attention, patience, and love I’d want someone to give my animals.

Reviews
Olivia was so thoughtful and kind. She helped us in a pinch and our golden retriever had a blast.
Olivia was absolutely amazing with our three dogs. Managing all of them at once can sometimes be a challenge, but she kept everything calm and organized while making sure each dog’s individual needs were met. Our more energetic dogs got plenty of exercise, and our elderly dog received extra love, patience, and attention. Honestly, she paid even more attention to them than we’re sometimes able to ourselves. Because of how much we trust her, Olivia is now our regular house sitter. We couldn’t recommend her more highly.
Olivia has cared for our two dogs, cat and horse many times. She is a safe, reliable, meticulous caretaker of both our animals and our home. She has kept us updated regularly with photos and cares for our pets and home as if it was her own. Her strengths are reliability, follows instructions consistently, knowledgable and takes pride in her work caring for your home and animals.
