Dogs make the world go round
Pet care experience
To say I love dogs would be a vast understatement. I have always had dogs in my life and I recently lost my sweet basset mix. I often dog-sit for friends and family, foster through a few different rescues, and volunteer to walk dogs at the SF SPCA. I find that our furry companions bring so much to our lives, we can learn a lot from them! I take joy in their company and learning each ones unique personality, and am looking forward to meeting yours! This is more for my love of animals, so I'll only ever be watching 1 pup at a time, so yours will get undivided attention. I love taking pictures of the sweet and silly moments, and will make sure that each client receives pictures and video if they would like.
Reviews
Duskie felt right at home with Olivia. Olivia and her partner gave Duskie 5-star treatment and accommodated his special needs. She gave regular updates and I felt secure that my senior pup was in good hands.
Olivia is the most caring, respectful person I know and her love for dogs knows no bounds. She took care of my weiner dog Henry and I knew he was in good hands. I got pictures sent daily and heard from her about how Henry was doing. It was such a relief knowing he was with her! I could not say enough about how fabulous Olivia is!
Olivia watched and housesat our six-year-old poodle, pepper, when we went out of town for a week. She could not have been a better houseguest and more caring, loving and attentive to our little fur baby. If you're looking for someone who truly has a passion for animals and cares about them immensely, Olivia is your gal! Cannot recommend her enough!!

Safety, trust & environment
I have a 2 bedroom apartment with a dog bed in every room. We'll establish a connection and comfort, then they can have free range if that's what the pet parent wants. I'm very attuned to their personalities and understand when they're trying to communicate something to you and will always take the time to figure out what it is that they want or need.
Home
Information Olivia M. would like to know about your pet
Any special accommodations and/or behavior traits I should know about. Does your dog like other dogs or is reactive in any other way? Do they have difficulty on the leash? Are there food allergies/limitations for treats? We live in a 4th floor walk-up, so can your dog make it up the stairs? Or are they small enough to be carried?
A typical day
This can be individualized. Does your dog love going to the park? Then that's where we'll go! Is your pup more of a city-dwelling, neighborhood roaming guy? Let'd do that. Are they a ball chasing maniac? Bust out the tennis balls. Couch potato? No problem.

I work from home with a very flexible schedule. I love taking breaks for walks and snuggles and having a dog around as a co-worker is the best.
