PAMPERED POOCH in Gulf Gate

Pet care experience

You know those people who will cross the street just to give a dog some lovin'? I'm 100% that person. I've owned dogs most of my life, but a variety of life changes has kept me from adopting another after my beloved Lily passed. I still really miss having dogs around, so I've decided that boarding and sitting more regularly will be a great way to fill the void. Whether your dog needs long walks and lots of play, or prefers to just snuggle on the couch, I'd be absolutely thrilled to take care of your furbaby when you need an extra hand. Currently, I have one very cool kitty named Butters. He's curious and energetic, and he gets along great with dogs. We've had many extended stays with a variety of doggos and he's very respectful...he might be skittish at first, but he warms up after the initial introduction. If your dog can handle being around other animals, they should get along just fine. I own a home with a fenced-in yard in a quiet neighborhood. Pup will have the run of the whole house when I'm home and will have a room to him/herself while I'm at work. My husband and I work different schedules, so there won't be lots of long periods when the pup would be alone. I'm not averse to shedding or slobber - the furniture is totally ready for snuggles, although the bed remains the kitty's domain. If it sounds like a match, send me a message!

Olivia is the absolute sweetest sitter! She took perfect care of our 6-year-old Beagle, Sophie, sending us photos and messages over the course of her stay. It was very clear that Olivia was getting to know Sophie and all of her fun personality traits through the thoughtfulness of the photos and messages we received. Olivia treated Sophie as her own and we could rest easy knowing Soph was in the best of hands. Would recommend without hesitation!!

Olivia and her husband were amazing! Very nice and friendly couple with a visible love for animals. I've never left my dogs overnight with strangers and I was very nervous if my fur babies were going to have the necessary attention and care. As soon as we met Olivia and introduced her to my dogs I felt so reassured and confident that I was leaving my babies in good hands. Her home is pet-friendly, she's very knowledgeable, patient and caring. While on my trip, she kept me updated with pictures. I think that when my dogs where back home they actually missed all that attention and love! I would highly recommend Olivia as your pet-sitter, and will definitely contact her in the future!

Fantastic stay! Olivia was a great care taker, easy to work with and genuinely passionate about the dogs welfare and happiness. The dogs came home well exercised, fed, clean and happy... what more could you ask for? Thanks, again, Olivia!

Olivia is awesome. She was actually with me while I adopted my dog and has shown my pup tons of love, helped me to adapt to dog mom status and to show unconditional love to my dog. I definitely have her top in line for when's i leave town and need a reliable dog lover to watch mine. I definitely trust my dog is in good hands with Olivia.

Information Olivia S. would like to know about your pet

I'm open to any breed, long- or short-hair. Because of the kitty, we won't be able to watch any pups with a strong prey instinct. The cat can definitely take care of himself, but we don't want anyone to be in danger. Please also make sure your dog is up-to-date on flea treatment. Our vet says flea season is exceptionally bad right now, so we want to keep unwanted bugs out if at all possible.

A typical day

I'm open to any and all games or exercise your pups needs. Long walks, playing fetch in the yard, doing some tug indoors - nothing's off limits!
