Safety, trust & environment

I only offer dog sitting in your home because I’ve got too many animals at my house and your dog or cat’s safety is my biggest priority. I am diligent when it comes to following instructions (with medications, food allergies, special needs) as well as ensuring the safety and cleanliness of your home.

Information Ava K. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know about your dogs’ special needs or conditions beforehand. Or if they have behavior issues or certain triggers that I need to consider (such as, how your dog feels towards other dogs/loud noises/trucks/men)

A typical day

A typical day with your pet depends on their energy level and needs. For high or low energy dogs, I can take them on a long walk, play fetch, do mentally stimulating treat games, work on the training they’re doing with you. We can discuss your dogs’ needs and lay out a plan of what you’d like me to do with them and go from there!

Pets

Experienced dog owner and foster!

Pet care experience

What sets me apart from other sitters is my experience with dogs. I worked at a wonderful rescue called KC Paws that taught me about dog handling, body language, and temperament. I was a shift lead so I have experience administering medications - liquid and pills. I am also a foster for T.A.R.A, another wonderful rescue, so I have TONS of experience with puppies as young as 5 weeks old. While I have not worked in a professional setting with cats, I have 2 of my own and I have fostered four sweet cats.

She is always happy to see Nellie and the feeling is mutual. Nellie is all smiles when she arrives.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
