About: My name is Olivia and I am a registered nurse who loves hanging out with dogs on my days off! I currently work 3 shifts a week at the hospital so I have plenty of free time to devote to new fur friends! I have 2 Welsh Corgis named Lola and Walter who are my pride and joy and my best friends! I have been taking care of pets my whole life and I am very passionate about my love for fluffy friends! My friends would say I am very compassionate, responsible, and I have a great sense of humor. I am an excellent dog photographer and videographer so I am happy to send you pictures of your fur babies while you are away! I am also a big fan of fetch, long walks, and snuggles. It would be an honor and a privilege to give your dogs the love and attention that they deserve! I only work 3 days per week, so I am available for walks and check ins during the week and I can house sit on the weekends. I always work with the family to set up a schedule before each visit. I can adapt to any feeding, bathroom, and walk times that work best with the pet. I will always do whatever I can to make the pet and family feel as safe and comfortable as possible.
“Courtney was great for our drop in visits. Quick communication and very happy pets! She walked and played with our dog and was great knowing she was there to give them some company. Would def book again!”
About: I have been an animal lover since birth. Currently my husband and I have 6 dogs (4 french bulldogs, 1 german shepherd, 1 rottweiler) and 1 cat. I am comfortable with all age groups. I work full time from home Monday-Friday so I would be available for mid day potty breaks depending on proximity to me as well as availability after 4pm weekdays. Weekends (Saturday and Sunday) are typically free any time. I am comfortable following whatever instructions the fur parent leaves for me regarding their pets care in their home. I am comfortable walking dogs, playing, crating, cleaning up messes from a pet etc.
“Kelly was amazing! We were out of the country for 3 weeks. It was a huge relief to know that our cats were in good hands while we were away. Kelly sent us pics/video of our girls every day along with thorough updates about how they were doing. She consistently went above & beyond for us, our cats, and our home/property in general. We can't recommend her enough! THANK YOU, Kelly!!!”
About: I have had pets my entire life and absolutely love animals, worked at Feeders Supply for about a year. Looking for some extra work before I leave for college! I currently do not any other responsibilities to tend to. Open to almost any time, any day until I move to school in August. Thanks! Although I cannot keep your dog in my home, I can take great care of them in their home! I am comfortable crating if you need and anything else!
