About Ava H.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I use gentle training methods and positive reinforcement rather than harsh punishments. Understanding how our pets’ brains work rather than trying to be “dominant” is very important to me and how I treat not only my animals but other people’s.
Information Ava H. would like to know about your pet
I’d like to know how well they do with other dogs, if they have food aggression, nervous signs, their leash behavior, and how many treats they can have!
A typical day
Get them outside to sniff around and play. Playing fetch, rope, and other activities to get out some of that energy! I like to go over tricks/commands to get their brains working and taking them on walks so they can get mental stimulation as well as exercise.

Pet care experience
I’ve been around pets my entire life including dogs (puppies and elderly), cats, rats, and guinea pigs, and I’ve been pet sitting for my neighbors for 3-4 years now. I currently have a high energy border collie and diva cat and strongly believe in gentle non-aggressive training and care. I’m available for long term, overnight, daily potty breaks and walks!
Reviews
Great as always!! :)
Ava is amazing! She took such great care of our pets, sent lots of pictures, and kept us updated every day. She gave our pets so much love and attention. When we got home after a 12 hr drive, the dogs were so exhausted they slept for the whole next day! She clearly took incredible time and care with them and made sure we were coming home to exercised and tired pups. We are so grateful! She was also very respectful of our home and left everything clean. We highly recommend Ava and would absolutely book with her again!
Ava did such a wonderful job!!! She was so communicative and responsible!!! Plus, it looked like our dog had lots of fun :) great experience and thank you Ava!!!
No complaints at all!! She’s very nice and took great care of my pets.
