“My dog, Ranger, adores Erica and gets so excited every time she arrives. She’s reliable, wonderful with animals, and an excellent communicator. Highly recommend booking with Erica! 💗”
“Mackenzie is so good with our elderly dog. She patiently walks him at his pace and let him sniff all his favorite spots. We are very happy to have found a compassionate caring person to care for our dog when we can’t be there. We have also had an excellent experience with her watching him for a week at our home and are repeat customers.”
About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning, understanding and caring all breeds! I’m currently working part time, so I have lots of availability to play and watch your pups! I am open All day Sunday, and Tuesday-Thursday. Then On Monday's, Friday's and Saturdays I’m availability after 2:30pm. We currently have 3 fur-babies -2 dogs, 1 cat. For now, we reside in a cozy apartment complex. Our babies go for multiple walks a day and often walk to the dog parks around our area.
“My pup loved Sarah! She was very accommodating with my changing schedule and very communicative. Made my day receiving the pictures of his walks and just how overjoyed he was. Recommend Sarah to anyone who is looking for a trustworthy person who genuinely cares about your pet. 10/10!”
“Felisha is an absolute GEM 💎 she took such great care of our baby boy Maverick while my Aunt was watching him for us! I believe Maverick even walked better for Felisha then he does for my husband and I 😂 My Aunt couldn’t say enough great things about Felisha and stated ANYONE in the area that needed some help with their pup 🐶 should use her! Thank you so much Felisha we will definitely use you again!”
About: I have raised my first dog Baxter, a mini Golden Doodle from 8 weeks. The boy is now almost 2 year old. I and my 11 year old girls have enjoyed time with Baxter around. We are welcoming any pet playing with us and Baxter. I am working from home. My time is very flexible. Weekends are VERY WELCOME to play with Baxter and my 11 year Twin girls. Weekday is welcome as well. I have a large backyard. The dog can play and chase tennis ball in the backyard. I live around elementary school with large playground. The dog can sleep anywhere if he/she likes, our cozy family room, my husband’s office room with Baxter, or my girls bed room.
“Our family really needed Avore’s help with our Ladador mix, rescue puppy, Ryder. He’s naturally a bundle of energy and joy and just wants to PLAY, all day, with anyone - and any THING. We live on a busy street and the thought of him being terribly hurt in his innocence to RUN! After ONE WALK, our family could quickly see the improvement! Ryder has been a different (HAPPIER, CALMER, well-behaved) pet since working with Avore. Avore continues to be patient, professional, attentive, and caring for our baby, Ryder! I’m a veteran and educator who’s very detail oriented. I notice that Ryder is so happy to hear Avore’s voice - he’s excited to behave, so he’ll get his walk and when he gets back (not a moment too‘early,’ Avore uses the FULL TIME of what our family’s PAID for) I can tell Ryder’s been worked out - even during these cold months! When she picks him up, it’s “down to the business at hand,” with an openness and enthusiasm that makes hiring her a HUGE WIN for us - AND Ryder. He’s been a much happier fur lovey. Finding Avore is one of the things our family have agreed is just “a must” for us to continue to have Ryder as a healthy member of our family. All I want to say is, THANK YOU, Avore! Your expertise is valued and clearly evident - well worth the search! 🌻”
“Lauren was great. We were in a pinch and needed a walker for a week and she graciously helped us out. She communicated clearly and was great with our dog. We will be using her again in the future!”
“Leah was great. Excellent communication and she took great care of my old dog on his walks. I appreciate that she was flexible with schedule changes. I would use her again for dog walks!”
“Janae is very trustworthy, responsible, and adored by my dogs. My 10 year old blind black Lab enjoys her walks and company and my 8 year old Lab/ Greyhound loves her play time. I recommend Janae.”
“Cari is professional, timely, personable, and absolutely marvelous with our dog Jade. She knows dog behavior and has been great helping our recently adopted dog gain confidence. She picked up our job same day and has handled a full week, super important since I injured my knee and wasn’t able to do Jade’s daily walks myself.”
About: Dogs and dog owners will love how I can accommodate their schedule and treat the members of their families as my own. I have plenty of experience with pets and take pride in giving excellent service. I enjoy going for runs with dogs or just keeping them company and meeting all their needs. Dogs are unconditional in the love that they give to their owners and have distinct individual personalities. It is important to provide the proper environment and care for dogs because they are creatures of habit and enjoy having a disciplined regimen as well as an overall healthy lifestyle. Choosing the right person is imperative to establish a positive routine for your best friend and critical to their happiness. I make sure that the care for your animal is top tier priority. Whatever the preference of the pet owner I am happy to follow. I follow the care instructions provided by their owner to the t. I always start by asking how would you prefer to have them taken care of?
“Nelly was great! Took good care of my 50lb dog on a few walks, and flexibly added another day after my trip was extended. Communication was friendly and concise. Strongly recommend.”
