Animal Care Professional

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Ollie, and I love animals. I have a cat who isn’t dog friendly, and I miss pups terribly, so I would love the opportunity to care for others' dogs. I am punctual, caring, and love dogs of all shapes and sizes! I've had extensive experience with dogs ranging from small to large, including work as an Animal Care Technician at an animal shelter. I have experience with caring for elderly dogs as well as puppies. I often dog sat for people in my neighborhood growing up, taking care of such duties as feeding, walking, and playing with dogs while their owners were away, and am very comfortable with dogs of all types. I have also worked in a DC cat cafe, an animal shelter, and have a senior cat of my own. I love cats of all shapes and sizes, and am well trained in noting behavioral or health issues for your cats. I have experience with kittens under a year all the way up to seniors! Send me a message--I would love to meet your fur babies!

Y’all! Ollie is the best! But if you take them from me, bidding war will commence. Genuinely, if you want someone who technically doesn’t know you to become family, they are your person. Xo love you, Ollie.

Ollie is the best! They were able to come check in on our sweet kitty, Chloe, last minute and did an amazing job with her. They became instant best friends! Could not recommend them enough :)

Safety, trust & environment

I like to give your pets the ability to get to know me. For more nervous pets, I like to sit with them for a moment and let them get used to my smell before we walk, play, or feed. Whatever special needs your animal has, I like to know about them!

Information Ollie S. would like to know about your pet

I like to know their size, favorite toys, walking behavior, feeding behavior, and the way they usually act. If I know their normal it’s much easier for me to tell if something is wrong or they’re uncomfy!

A typical day

I love to play! I think most pets can always use more playtime, whether it’s with fetch toys, string toys, or other enrichment activities. I’m patient on walks, and love to give your dogs the time they need to sniff out the area and do their business.
