Frequent Walks, High Quality Care
Pet care experience
A trained kennel technician and veterinary assistant, I keep animal health at a high priority and ensure all animal's safety during their visits. I firmly believe that an owner should leave their pet in someone else's hands and be able to feel comfortable knowing they will treat them as if they are their own. I’ve studied pre-veterinary medicine, animal sciences, and organisms biology—which means I love the opportunity to meet new animals and give them the love I would to my own pets. When I care for animals, my top priority is for them to feel safe and as stress-free as possible. To maximize this, I ensure play-time occurs frequently throughout the day and they stick to their normal routine as closely as possible. Depending on the age and fitness level of the dog, I will adjust my walking patterns to adequately fit their energy needs. I hope you consider me to care for your animals as you travel, and look forward to hearing from you in the near future.
Reviews
Our dogs really enjoyed their stay and playing with Hazel. Olivia and Daniel were great- sent a bunch of videos and pictures and were very accommodating for drop off, visit, and pick up. We would highly recommend them and will have them puppy sit again if we are in the area.
Olivia was so great with Jake! She took him on multiple walks and sent pictures. She was very accommodating of my schedule as well. I would absolutely let her keep Jake again!
Tex had a great time with Olivia! I got picture and text updates while he was there and he definitely seemed to be enjoying himself!
Olivia was so great!! She took great care of Bogey while we were in town for the weekend and continually updated us with pictures!
About Olivia S.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
For more outgoing companions, I always try to mimic the energy of the owner when interacting with a new pet—I find that the transition process is smoother. When it comes to pets that are wary of strangers, I tend to take time to let them adjust to my presence, being sure to let them know I both am aware of their presence and want them to feel I am respecting any boundaries presented.
Information Olivia S. would like to know about your pet
I ask to receive information on dietary or seasonal allergies, behavioral restrictions/customs, and any presenting skin issues that may require monitoring. I am flexible and willing to work with whatever the client is looking for.
A typical day
I love to play puzzles, work on agility skills or special tricks, offer enrichment exercises, go for physical walks, or have a self-care day with the pup such as cleaning up their feet and giving them some back rubs.

Availability
I have five companions of my own, therefore maximizing their nutrition and enrichment required time and dedication. Through this, I’ve mastered their schedules and am eager to help provide equal stability for other pets in need of enrichment and care.
