Pet care experience

Dog owner and lover - here to help!

Hi, My name is Ava! I would absolutely love to get to know every dog’s unique personality, whether they’re an energetic puppy, a laid-back senior, or a dog with special needs. I have hands-on experience caring for puppies as young as newborns, senior dogs, and dogs with disabilities, as well as administering both oral medications and injections when needed. I understand that every pet has different routines, energy levels, and comfort needs, and I take pride in following your instructions carefully so your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. My goal is for you to have complete peace of mind knowing your pet is in capable, dependable hands. - Please book at least 2 days in advance whenever possible. - I kindly ask for at least 24 hours’ notice for cancellations for all services. - If you have a last-minute request, feel free to reach out, as I may still be able to accommodate depending on my schedule!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in yard that my personal dogs love to play in. I also love to bring my dogs elsewhere to play, as long as I can supervise them. I care for every pet as if they were my own by following your care instructions closely and paying attention to the little details. Whether I’m dog walking, stopping by for drop-in visits, or staying overnight in your home, I focus on keeping your pet’s routine consistent with feeding, potty breaks, exercise, medication, and plenty of affection. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to provide reliable, attentive care that helps both you and your pet feel completely at ease.

There is literally no one that I trust more with my dogs and cats than Ava. Every time she has watched them my dogs have remained happy, continue to eat and play, and she has always followed through and then some! She also is a very tidy person, and Responsible. If you were looking for someone to not only care for your pets, but love them as part of the job, Ava is your person!!

Schedule

As an online student at the University of Arizona and a part-time employee at a professional dog grooming salon, caring for animals is already a part of my everyday life. My flexible class schedule allows me to plan my days around the pets I care for, whether that means walks, drop-in visits, overnight stays, or keeping up with medication schedules. While my work and school commitments may occasionally affect my availability, I do my best to be as flexible and accommodating as possible and communicate any scheduling changes well in advance. Providing dependable, attentive care is something I genuinely enjoy, and I strive to make every pet feel comfortable while giving owners complete peace of mind.

Before caring for your pet, I’d love to know about their daily routine, personality, favorite activities, medical needs, medications, allergies, fears, and any behaviors I should be aware of. The more I know, the better I can provide care that’s tailored specifically to your pet and helps them feel comfortable while you’re away. If your dog has any training cues, quirks, or favorite toys or treats, I’d love to know those too so I can make our time together as enjoyable and stress-free as possible.
