Pet care experience

Let’s go play!

As a pet owner myself, I understand what it takes to take care of other people's animals. Sometimes life gets in the way, and we don't always have time to give them the walk they need or the care they need. I work remotely and am new to the city, so would love to get to know the area by walking your dogs : )

Safety, trust & environment

I am a very clean person, with great care for property. Before departure I always clean the house to leave it perfect for owners return. I respect owners requests and follow their guidelines for ensuring safe and happy experience for the animals.

House Sitting • May 26, 2026

Ava was a great sitter for our old dog. We needed someone to stay the night and Ava worked with us to make it happen. She was very flexible and a great communicator. Forgot to mention, she helped out over a holiday weekend and even met with us and our dogs at a park to ensure our dogs were friendly

I was new to Rover and Ava worked with my schedule and was willing to meet before I went out of town. Great communication and overall was nice to work with.

Ava has been a lifesaver through Rover! She’s reliable, kind, and clearly loves what she does. Woody gets so excited every time she comes by, and I really appreciate the updates throughout the day. It gives me total peace of mind knowing my dog is in such caring hands. I highly recommend Ava to anyone looking for a fantastic dog care!

I have watched Ava care for countless pets. She is patient, responsible, and loving to all animals no matter their breed/ kind. I trust Ava to be the best care giver to any animal she watches over, and have fist hand seen how good she is with all pets. She also carries a professionalism and timeliness wherever she goes. Would 100% recommend Ava as a great source for for you and your pet!

Ava has spent her life with dogs (and cats). She is a very down to earth kind person and would do her best to make all involved happy to have her tend to their dogs. She is above all a trustworthy person.

I have known Ava Halper for over twenty years, and she is one of the most dedicated, thorough, detail-oriented and kind human beings I have ever met. Both my husband and I have hired her at various points to work for us (she was my teaching assistant in my children's theater program and she worked as a property manager in my husband's company). She is trustworthy and incredibly bright. Most importantly, Ava truly loves dogs and has an instant rapport with them. She has taken care of both our dog and our cat when we needed the help, and she has always done a fantastic job. Ava is a loving dog owner herself (I'd say she's obsessed with her sweet pup, Milo!) She is a treasure.
