Big & Small Cats & Dogs, Welcome!
Pet care experience
Hey, there! My name's Ava, and ever since I was little, I have LOVED animals. Almost every day I would BEG my mom for a pet (which she, of course, constantly said no). Luckily, however, my mom worked with someone who was out-of-town a lot, so we got to watch their dog all the time. It was honestly the best days of my life. Since then, other family-friends have entrusted me with their dogs, and I've loved every moment of that as well. My mom did, in fact, allow me to adopt a puppy when I was ten, but sadly, that did stunt anymore at home dog-sitting. Anyway, ever since I got my dog and couldn't pet-sit anymore, I've missed the opportunity to meet new pets and really look after them. Therefore, I'm excited to get started again! I love ANY size dog, and although I've never had a cat, I love them as much as dogs. Likewise, for my first job, I worked at a vet clinic. Of course, I didn't perform any surgeries or crazy things like that. Instead, I swept up hair and mopped the floors, so I know how messy (and gross) our pets can be. I've also wanted to do some more walking, so walking your pets would be a great excuse! ;-)
Reviews
Ava was great with my cat Yoda! I was gone for three weeks and she sent me pictures and detailed updates throughout the process. He had an incident that Ava immediately addressed with me to create a problem solving strategy which I greatly appreciated. She was quick to reply and helped me know he was well taken care of.
Ava was fantastic! Easy and quick to communicate with, professional, and our animals adored her! Both our cat and dog are a little needy, so it was so nice to be able to travel and know they were in good hands. Ava will definitely be our first choice if we need a house/pet sitter in the future!
She's always on time.l, a great communicator and thorough.
She's easy to get ahold of, easy to talk to, and does a great job. We highly recommend her.

My dog, Kadie, is a crazy girl. She's seven years old, almost eight, and she's STILL a rambunctious thing. Kadie can be hard to handle sometimes, and I may love her more than she loves me, but I have never gotten sick of her. Even when she's being a brat, I can't help but laugh at how adorable she is. She's a jumper and a barker, but I can tolerate it. Really, I find things like that more cute than anything. Therefore, if you think your dog or cat is bad, that is perfectly fine. Just as long as they don't kill me, I'll find them perfectly adorable. When it comes to animals, especially mine and other people's, all I care about is their happiness and safety.
Information Ava H. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your pet has any extra needs, and I will be willing and ready to accommodate them. The safety, well-fair, and happiness of your pet is what's most important to me.
A typical day
I've always loved playing with cats and dogs, since seeing them so excited over something small like a ball or a string, is always the cutest thing. Moreover, my dog walks the same exact route for her walk almost every day, and she still LOVES it. It's probably because my neighborhood is full of animals, so there's always something new to sniff. There's also a huge open field very close to me, so we can throw around a ball and run around. I would also love to walk down by the lake or through some hiking trails, since I love geocaching. So by walking your pet, I'd have an excuse to find more caches! ;-)
