Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets in their own homes where they feel most comfortable and safe. I follow all routines closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and medication if needed. I’m respectful of your space, reliable with instructions, and always make sure your pet feels calm, cared for, and not alone while you’re away.

Information Ava D. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any medical needs, anxiety triggers, or specific routines so I can keep them comfortable and safe. I’m happy to work with dogs of all breeds and sizes, what matters most is building trust and giving them the care they deserve.

A typical day

I love to stimulate dogs both physically and mentally! We’ll go for long walks, explore parks or trails, play fetch and tug of war, and even practice simple tricks to keep them engaged. I tailor activities to your dog’s age, energy level, and personality to make sure they’re exercised, enriched, and happy by the end of the day.

Pet care experience

Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I currently have a sweet Lab and a black cat I rescued after finding her in a box as a stray, she’s now happy, healthy, and thriving. For the past 5+ years, I’ve cared for pets of all kinds, helping families feel at ease while they’re away. Whether it’s a high energy dog, a shy rescue, or a senior pet with special needs, I’m calm, confident, and patient. I treat every pet like my own with love, safety, and a lot of attention. You can count on me to keep your pets happy and cared for like family.

We couldn’t be happier with the care Ava provided for our pups. She was incredibly sweet, reliable, and treated Rudy like one of her own. We came home to happy dogs—and even got regular photo updates that totally put our minds at ease. Ava is everything you’d want in a sitter: trustworthy, loving, and clearly passionate about what she does. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for amazing care for their furry family member!
