Pet care experience

*I'll be in Australia for minimum 6 months from November 2022 onwards* Please contact my friend Alex Dobrica for your dog sit needs in the meanwhile! https://r.rover.com/h47tmT I've been a Rover sitter since 2018 - take a peek at my 5 star reviews! I live in a fourplex with a small fully fenced yard and close to parks. I have a two year old Staffordshire X - she's very well socialized and gets along with most dogs she meets, but not males over 40lbs. I'm comfortable caring for up to medium size dogs in my home, or any size breed in your home. I work full time in an office (dog friendly) and am available weekends. Please do get your requests in early as possible, I'm often booked up well in advance. August is my busiest time for work so typically I close my bookings. My family and I have owned several different breeds of dog since I was a child, and I honestly like dogs more than I like people. I want to be able to help out others with work schedules who have you away from home a lot, or don't want to leave your dog at in impersonal boarding kennel while on vacation. I love long walks and nature hikes, and snuggles on the couch are a must.

It was great to know that my pup was in good hands. Olwen took great care of my baby and I would definitely recommend her !

Another huge thank you to Olwen! Bello loves her and their time. I don’t even know if he really missed me, they had so much fun!
