Pawsitively Passionate Dog Walker

Pet care experience

With a wealth of pet care experience and a passion for furry companions, I stand out as a reliable and dedicated pet sitter. What sets me apart is my expertise in training puppies and providing specialized care for senior dogs. Growing up with big German Shepherds since the age of 12, I have acquired extensive knowledge of their training, grooming, and overall well-being. Your pets will benefit from my years of hands-on experience, ensuring they receive the utmost care, attention, and love they deserve.

She did a great job watching my puppy at my apartment for 5 days while I was away. My puppy was super relaxed and happy when I came back, he was cared for well!

We have used Rover many times and found one of the best in Ava. She is always quick to respond and clear in her communication. When she first met our Basset Jude they were quickly comfortable together. She calmed all his separation anxiety nerves. She is a great dog person. We highly recommend her.

Ava cared for our 2 frenchies and she did an amazing job! Pups seemed happy. I got lots of updates and she seemed to really care about our babies. She was very flexible and followed the instructions I provided. We were very happy and would use her again!

Safety, trust & environment

As a pet caregiver, I prioritize the safety, trust, and well-being of every furry friend entrusted to my care, whether in my home or my client's home. While I live in a downtown apartment, I ensure that pets under my watch receive excellent care and have access to suitable outdoor spaces. Despite the urban environment, I have carefully researched and selected nearby parks and green areas that provide ample opportunities for enjoyable walks and exercise. I am dedicated to maintaining a secure and comfortable environment, paying close attention to leash safety and using appropriate equipment to ensure the utmost security during outdoor activities. Additionally, I make sure to create a warm and welcoming atmosphere in my home or the client's home, offering a pet-friendly environment where they can feel safe and comfortable throughout their stay. Trust is of the utmost importance to me, and I take pride in providing a secure and loving environment for pets in my care.

A typical day

I love taking my dog to the beach, or different hikes he can explore and play!! I think it’s important for dogs to get out of the house and explore nature and new places!
