Pet care experience
After meeting my best friend’s pup as a child, I begged my parents to adopt our first family dog, Rose, a golden retriever. Rose set the bar high when it came to amazing pets and it was through working with her, and subsequent family pets, that I first learned how to properly train, care for and love dogs. I took my responsibility as a pet owner seriously from a young age and word about my dedication quickly spread. One day a neighbor asked my mom if I would be comfortable caring for her dog while she was away. My local library hosted a weekly agility program that was hosted by a dog trainer that I attended regularly and was able to expand on my knowledge and my services. From there, I kept getting recommendations throughout the neighborhood and had a nice, steady dog-walking and pet-sitting business! My training paid off and in college, I went on to volunteer at my local animal shelter as a dog walker and feeder for four years. I’m now a part time dog walker and pet-sitter on Rover and I’m able to handle early mornings, evenings, and weekends—just let me know what you need and I’ll make it happen! My clients love the fact that I keep them apprised of their pet’s activities with regular photo updates throughout our time together. Clear communication is important to me and I want all my clients to understand that I am reachable and responsive to their messages. I’m a naturally calm person and I have the patience necessary to build up trust with a wide variety of temperaments and personalities—both human and canine alike! I am also organized, timely, and I take my responsibilities seriously—I show up on time ready to work and will do whatever I can to keep your pup on his regular routine so that he feels safe when you’re away. I offer the following services: house visits, boarding, overnight pet-sitting, dog walking and dog park trips (with permission, of course). Send me a message—I can’t wait to meet you

Olivia L. cancelled a booking 1 day before it was scheduled to begin.
Always so grateful for Olivia’s help with Remy. She’s great about sending pictures and just a wonderful sitter!
Wonderful sitter!! Provided lots of communications and photos
Olivia took good care of my two cats while I was out of town. She sent updates to let me know when she came and left and sent pics while she was there to show me my babies. Thanks Olivia!

Please let me know your dog’s usual schedule, dietary needs, medication needs, favorite places to walk, favorite activities, and/or anything else you think I’d need to know to give the best care possible.

A typical day
First I will ask you if your pup has any favorite walking routes. If you don’t have any immediate preferences, I might take your dog to the duck pond near the Wharf, the Southwest Neighborhood Library, with its wide-open space, or any of the other fun walking spots I have in my back pocket!
