Availability
When I’m not designing digitally or playing shows across New Mexico, I’m working from home with a completely flexible schedule. This means I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pets! From midday potty breaks and fun games to long neighborhood walks, I’m ready to keep your furry friends company.

About Olivier R.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
When I care for pets in their own space, my priority is maintaining their established comfort zone and keeping their anxiety to an absolute minimum. Respecting the Home Ecosystem: I follow your exact house rules (e.g., allowed on the couch vs. floor-only, specific feeding spots, crating routines). The "Work from Your Home" Benefit: For overnight or extended house sitting, I bring my laptop and work right from your living room or kitchen table. Your pet gets the same "companion presence" they would get if you were home on a weekend. High-Quality Drop-Ins: For quick visits, I’m thorough. I don’t just rush in, scoop the food, and leave. I ensure the water bowl is scrubbed, accidents are checked for, and your pet gets dedicated, uninterrupted one-on-one affection and playtime. Security & Communication: I leave your home exactly as I found it (lock checks, bringing in mail/packages) and send you regular photo and text updates so you can see how happy and relaxed they are.
Information Olivier R. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know your dogs preferences for food, treats, and specifics about his daily routine. How does he reacts with other dogs or breeds? What type of noises set him off? Are there any sensitive areas of the body when touched? Any corks that I should be aware off.
A typical day
I’m all about making exercise fun and engaging! Our walks aren't just a chore—I use positive vocal communication to stay connected with your pup the whole time. If they have the energy, we'll do some light jogging, always keeping a sharp eye out for hazards. I’m also very mindful of our surroundings, ensuring we respect neighboring properties and local wildlife. A game of fetch is always a big YES in my book! If you approve of treats, I like to use them as rewards for fun training moments during playtime to keep their minds sharp.

Pet care experience
Since I moved to the United States from France twenty years ago, my 5 best friends had been my 5 dogs. I took great care of my dogs as though they were my children, until they all passed from old age. I have been loving all animals my entire life. I currently do not have pets due to the suffering I recently went through when my last dog Betsy passed away.
Reviews

Oliver is amazing! He was incredibly patient with my shy, slow to warm dog Tulip. I am super grateful for his friendly professional attentiveness and meeting with us 4x before the actual dog home sit days to get to know her. She bonded after the 5 nights with him. A very heart-warming successful Rover experience. So relieved to have a dependable and local dog sitter. Wr highly recommend Oliver!! 🤍🐶

Olivier is wonderful! He has an innate sense of what our dog Jazz needs and likes. Jazz loved resting, hanging out in the yard and playing in the cool parts of the house. We will work with Olivier again and recommend him.

Friendly, prompt and gaining my dog Tulip's trust with treats. Thank you, Oliver!

Very reliable!
