About Olivia

Hi everyone! My name is Olivia and I am so excited to be able to share this experience with your beautiful animals! I am based in Stoke, Nelson, and I work in Nelson town, although I do not mind travelling around Nelson/Tasman region for your fur babies. I cannot wait to be able to pet sit, or visit your animals for you!

I am able to look after dogs, cats or small animals, as well as dog walk as I have such a love for animals and exercise, so why not combine them! Currently I am working for A government agency. No animals deserve to be at home all day by themselves, which is where my experience and caring attitude comes in handy. I have always had animals in my life, and before I moved back to Nelson I was working at a wildlife park in Christchurch, proving just how much affection I have towards animals! I have also graduated a bachelor of Criminal Justice degree, providing evidence of my trustworthiness and reliability! I am flexible although I do work full time, I can house sit at any time depending on the animals needs as I won't always be home while I am at work during the day. I now have a 1 year old boy dog called Spike, he is a Border Collie cross Beardie. He's the 4th dog I've had during my life. I've also grown up having 2 cats throughout my life and 2 rabbits. I have heaps of experience looking after animals outside of Pawshake too before I joined, so it's not something that is new to me. I love all animals, big or small and would love to provide help and love to your animals!

When house sitting/home visits:

I will give you updates each day as to how your pet is doing, along with photos of them via pawshake or text (whichever you prefer). I will feed, water, walk (if needed), medicate (if needed), clean up after and give lots of attention to your pet. How much time I spend with the pet will be dependent on what the owner is wanting, I work full time but on my days off I can be with the pet for the majority of the day and I will always be with them in the mornings and evenings, as well as checking in on them on my lunch break if close by and deemed necessary. When doing home visits, the minimum visit time would be 30 minutes. The house will be kept clean and tidy and I can do other tasks such as putting out the bins, gettng in the mail if required.

My calendar is updated regularly but from my description above you can see when I am available on a general basis.

Olivia has looked after my cats twice now and is booked to come again over my next holidays. She sends lovely updates which is reassuring, and having Olivia come feed and spend time with my fur babies is the best peace of mind while we are away from home.

I'm so happy to have found Olivia through this service, I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for peace of mind when leaving their beloved pets. I have her booked again while we are away for an extended period over the Easter holidays.
