Highlights
Pet care experience
experienced pet lover
I’ve had animals my whole life and genuinely love being around them. I currently have three dogs (a terrier, a mastiff-lab mix, and a pittie) who I’m obsessed with, plus my black cat who is my best friend. I also foster puppies and senior dogs, which has given me a lot of experience with pets who need a little extra patience, care, or attention. I’m super comfortable adjusting to different energy levels whether that means keeping up with a crazy puppy or going slow and gentle with an older dog. I used to work at a doggy daycare where I cared for 100+ dogs at a time, feeding, cleaning, walking, and just making sure everyone was safe and happy. That experience taught me how to handle all kinds of breeds, sizes, and personalities. Overall, I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well taken care of :)

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I’ll treat your pets just like my own, with lots of love, attention, and care. I know every pet is different, so I always make sure to follow whatever instructions you leave, whether that’s feeding routines, crating, medications, walks, or anything specific to their needs. I’m very attentive to their behavior and comfort level, and I’ll make sure they feel safe and relaxed in their environment. I also keep things clean and consistent so your pet stays happy and stress-free while you’re away.
Ratings and reviews
Ava came to my home for drop in visits with my dog on the days I work. She is reliable and took good care of my dog. Even after my dog needed surgery, she was able to come for visits to check on her. She always sends photos and updates.
So far we have just had a half hour walk with Ava. Good attitude and things went smoothly!
Ava has been very responsive to my pet’s needs and in communication.
Ava was on time and clearly cared about my dog’s well-being. I appreciated the photos during their walk. My dog came back happy and tired. I will definitely book again.
Ava has helped care for and walked our 3 dogs for the last several months. Super friendly, professional, and our dogs love her like she's family.

Schedule
I’m a college student so my schedule can be pretty flexible, especially during the summer and school breaks. That’s when I’m really looking to do more pet care because I love having something active and fun to fill my time, and being around animals is honestly my favorite thing.

- Before caring for your pet, I like to know as much as possible so I can make them feel comfortable and keep their routine consistent. Things like their feeding schedule, energy level, temperament, and any quirks or habits are super helpful. I also like to know if they have any medical needs, take medications, or have any triggers or things they don’t like.
