About Olivia W.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I bring supplies such as treats, water, and drying towels as appropriate for each walk. I always monitor my animal buddy's physical and emotional wellbeing, and prioritize a safe and fun experience. This includes a recognition and protection of boundaries that your pet may have with me and with other animals and people. I value including pets in engaging activities that may interest your pet, and I will reinforce any training that is currently underway.
Information Olivia W. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know how your dog may behave around strangers outside, and if they have any specific environmental triggers for excitement or fear. I would like to learn about anything I can do to make your pet feel comfortable and happy.
A typical day
Your dog and I will take time to explore things that your dog finds interesting on the way. We can play fetch, run around, or set up food enrichment toys.

Pet care experience
Hello! I am a first year veterinary student at the University of Minnesota College of Veterinary Medicine. have always sought opportunities to connect with animals, starting with my early experience in a veterinary clinic, and most recently being an animal care internship at the Lake Superior Zoo and my job as a veterinary assistant. I respect all animals as fellow individuals with unique personalities and needs. My dog was my very best friend, and I have treated my rabbit as family member for over 12 years, so I understand how important reliability is when working with other people's pets.
Reviews
Very friendly and efficient and took care of our fur babies with no issues. Highly recommend Olivia!
Olivia was awesome with my kitties. My older cat has some medical issues and she dealt with them great. She kept in touch while I was away and gave detailed Rover cards.
Olivia has taken care of my three fussy cats on many occasions and they absolutely adore her. I feel like my animals are in very good hands when she is caring for them and my husband and I frequently go to her for advice regarding animals (of any kind really!). Olivia has such a clear passion for animals, and is very knowledgeable about their behaviors and needs. She’s willing to go above and beyond to make sure that any critters in her care are safe and happy!!
I have known Olivia for almost a year, since she became employed at the Dougherty Veterinary Clinic. I have known her as a thoughtful, kind, intelligent, motivated and responsible employee. I have also had her take care of my own two dogs while I have been away. She put up with a crazy miniature pinscher and and elderly poodle and went above and beyond in taking care of them. I had really only expected her to feed them and bring them out for bathroom duties, but she spent hours playing and interacting with them! Olivia is a very special young lady and I would recommend her highly, not just as a responsible and loving pet caregiver, but a truly delightful person. Lisa Jeanetta DVM. Dougherty Veterinary Clinic
