I already love your pets!

Pet care experience

Celebrating my one year anniversary here on Rover! Thank you so much to all of the wonderful pet parents who have trusted me to take care of your babies. The joy and fulfillment I feel caring for your pets like I care for my own is beyond words. I look forward to continuing to sit for my regulars and well as hopefully making many, many more furry friends! I was recently called “The Kitty Mary Poppins” by a client and I wear that title proudly! I love meeting a new pet and understanding their needs so they are as comfortable as possible while their parents are away. I am an extremely thorough sitter. I love when parents give me detailed instructions to follow so that I can maintain a pets usual routine as much as possible and detect any changes in behavior so I can note it in my updates. I take tons of pictures— I’m pretty proud of my cat photography skills! I love when pet parents say I’ve captured some of their favorite photos of their babies. I love getting to know each cat and their personality. I’ve developed some really special bonds with my kitty clients and I'm so glad to be a source of safety and comfort for them. This truly doesn’t feel like a job to me at all! A little bit about my personal pet life: As soon as I was out of my college dorm I adopted my first baby (and best friend); a female kitty named Emilio who is now 12 years old! A few years ago, on a trip to Guatemala, my boyfriend and I spotted a puppy chewing on a dirty bone, alone in the mountains by Lake Atitlan, scooped her up and took her home with us. Our wild girl, Papaya is now about 4 years old! And back in May 2022 we stumbled upon a street adoption and saw a 2 month old blonde kitten and knew he belonged in our pack. Sonny is now two years old! My babies are my world. I know, firsthand, the importance of finding a sitter that you trust with you fur babies so you can go about your travels with true peace of mind. I am here to provide that for you. I will take care of your babies as well as you do and I will give them oodles and oodles of love! Whatever you need to make you and your babies happy--I got you!

Although Olivia and I didn’t get a chance to meet before she came to take care of my cat, Mars, she was super easy to communicate with, fast to respond and flexible. She sent me lots of cute photos of Mars and detailed reviews of each visit. I was particularly impressed when she mentioned Mars had completely finished her breakfast one day and offered to add more dry food to her dinner in the future if it happened again. It made me feel like she was looking after my cat as if she was one of her own cats. I would definitely use Olivia again next time I need to go out of town. Thank you!

I can’t recommend Olivia enough! One of my cats got sick while I was away and she went above and beyond. She was super communicative with me so we could make a plan for what to do and she not only picked up baby food at the store to help settle my girl’s tummy, she left some in my house so I wouldn’t have to run errands when I got back from an international flight. She takes great photos (and a lot of them—which I love!!) and provides thorough updates. I’d rebook with her in a heartbeat.

Olivia took amazing care of our cat Babka during our wedding weekend and even did me a HUGE favor and helped get my veil into an Uber to my wedding venue when I left it at home. She truly went above and beyond and I’m so grateful to her!

Safety, trust & environment

Animal safety is one of my top priorities in this world. I am admittedly a bit obsessive about my own pets safety and this extends to any animal that is in my care. If I am walking your dog they will never leave their leash or my sight. I will make sure I have eyes on your pet before I leave a visit and that all doors and windows are closed and that there is nothing out or accessible to a pet that may put them in harms way. You set the rules and I will happily follow them. Your baby is safe with me! A typical visit means feeding your cat, give them play time (if they are interested), nap time, scoop the litter box every visit, and send pictures every visit. Please let me know if your dog or cat has any special needs or behaviors. The more info the better so I can be as prepared as possible for whatever they may need!

A typical day

I know the hot spot for dogs in East LA is the Silverlake Reservoir dog park. If you are a fellow east sider I will happily bring your baby there for a walk around the reservoir and some playtime with other pups! If that's not your area that's perfectly fine! I delight in discovering new dog friendly locations all around the city and will happily hit up your regular spots that you know your dog already loves as well.

I am 100% available for any pet sitting needs for the foreseeable future. I am an actor, not currently on a project, and since auditioning is 100% remote due to COVID, I can schedule my tapes around my pet sitting commitments. If I were to book acting work I would give you as large of a heads up as possible and set you up with one of my personal, trusted pet sitters or refer you to another volunteer or staff member at the cat shelter I volunteer at. You are in EXCELLENT hands!
