Pet care experience
Loving Pet sitter flexible schedule
Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up with two German Shepherds who lived long, happy lives—one to 13 years old and the other to 10. Caring for them taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, and providing pets with the love and attention they deserve. No dog is too big or too small for me. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I am committed to making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I genuinely enjoy building bonds with animals and treating them like family. As a very active person, I love incorporating plenty of walks, playtime, and exercise into each pet’s day. Whether your pet needs cuddles, companionship, adventures, or extra attention, I am here to provide reliable, loving care and give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in good hands. Why Choose Me? * Lifelong experience with dogs of all sizes * Comfortable with large breeds, including German Shepherds * Active and attentive caregiver * Reliable, compassionate, and responsible * Dedicated to keeping pets happy, safe, and loved Your pet’s happiness, safety, and well-being will always be my top priority. 🐾💕

Ratings and reviews
Ava is the best! We were on vacation in OB and were planning to go to a concert. It was a super hot week and our air bnb didn’t have AC so we couldn’t leave our pup. Ava was so flexible and jumped in last minute to save the day! Tito made himself right at home with her and had a great time while we were at our show. Highly recommend her!
Ava took great care of our 7 month old golden retriever puppy this weekend! She was very fast to respond, kept us updated with photos throughout the weekend, and was very nice. I would definitely use Ava again!
Ava was wonderful with Benny! She was incredibly sweet, communicative, and accommodating throughout the entire stay. Benny seemed so happy and well-cared for when we got him back. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a great sitter!
Thank you Ava for being available on such a short notice and being patient with our protective Bruno! Ava is really good with communications about setting up and updating us during the walks.
Thank you so much for watching Biscuit! You saved the day! You were so great to him!
Picture this, imagine your dog having the choice to choose between protecting you from a burglar or their favorite treat and your dog chose the treat over you. That’s the type of LOVE Ava has for DOGS. If dogs could choose their favorite person, Bella would have chosen Ava every single time. Ava had a special connection with animals and a heart full of love for every pet she meets. She cared for my precious Bella as if she were her own, and that meant the world to me. Ava is incredibly responsible, attentive, patient, and compassionate. She never just “watched” Bella she spent quality time with her, made sure she felt safe and loved, paid attention to her needs, and always put Bella’s happiness and well being first. As a pet owner, I know how Bella Can be a lot with the leash pulling and the constant begging for treats in order to have her listen. Ava genuinely loves and cares for them. I trusted Ava completely with Bella, and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, loving, and attentive pet sitter. Any pet would be lucky to have Ava in their life. Thank you for taking care of my baby ❤️ you’re the best

Schedule
currently work part-time, which gives me a very flexible schedule for pet sitting, dog walking, daycare visits, and overnight boarding. This flexibility allows me to provide pets with plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. Animals in my care will not be left unattended for long periods, and I will make sure they receive the attention, exercise, potty breaks, playtime, and affection they need to feel comfortable and happy. Whether it’s a quick walk, daily care, or an overnight stay, you can trust that your pet will be treated like family and cared for as if they were my

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I live in a spacious two-bedroom, two-story condo , and i both share a genuine love for animals. I have created a pet-friendly space with a large patio that we’ve transformed into a mini backyard, complete with grass and comfortable seating for pets to relax and enjoy the outdoors. My home is conveniently located within walking distance of a park and the dog beach, making it easy to provide plenty of exercise, fresh air, and enrichment. Since I already take daily walks as part of my routine, your furry family member will enjoy regular walks, playtime, and lots of attention. I strive to create a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where pets feel right at home. Whether your pet enjoys being active or simply wants a cozy place to relax, they’ll receive plenty of care, affection, and companionship during their stay
A typical day
Walks and Outdoor Adventures – Neighborhood walks, park visits, and plenty of time to sniff and explore at a comfortable pace. Fetch and Active Play – Games of fetch, tug-of-war, chase, or other favorite toys to help energetic pets burn off energy. Mental Enrichment – Treat puzzles, hide-and-seek, scent games, and simple training exercises to keep pets engaged and stimulated. Cuddles and Relaxation – For pets who prefer a calmer pace, I’m happy to provide lots of affection, brushing, lap time, and companionship. Photo Updates – I love taking pictures and sending updates so you can see your pet having fun while you’re away

- Before caring for your pet, I like to learn as much as possible about them so I can provide the best care and keep them comfortable. Important things to know include their daily routine, feeding schedule, medications, allergies, energy level, favorite activities, and any fears or anxieties. I also like to know how they interact with other animals and people, any training cues they respond to, and any special needs they may have. The more I know ahead of time, the better I can make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and right at home while you’re away.
