Your Dog's New Best Friend!

As a lifelong dog owner and dog caregiver, I've developed a deep understanding of canine behavior and needs. My experience ranges from caring for playful puppies to senior dogs requiring special attention. I prioritize each dog's well-being, ensuring they receive plenty of exercise, socialization, and affection. Whether it's daily walks, playtime at the park, or administering medications, I approach every task with patience and love. My commitment is to create a safe and enjoyable environment for every furry friend I care for.

Safety, trust & environment

In my home, my pets are treated like family. I ensure they have a safe, comfortable environment filled with love and attention. Each day begins with morning playtime and a nutritious meal tailored to their needs. I prioritize regular exercise through walks and play sessions, keeping their energy levels balanced. I focus on mental stimulation with interactive toys and training exercises, reinforcing positive behavior. Cleanliness is also essential; I maintain a tidy space for them and provide regular grooming. Above all, I foster a nurturing atmosphere, filled with cuddles and affection, ensuring my pets feel secure and happy.

Ava did a great job talking care of our fur baby Nova! We will definitely be reaching out to her the next time we need someone to keep her company!

Ava is absolutely amazing! I had flight changes and a small home renovation going on during her stay and she was nothing but understanding, accommodating and reassuring! I will 100% rebook with Ava! Thank you so much for everything!

Ava is a very responsible and genuinely kind hearted person. Her extensive experience with dogs is apparent when seeing her interact with animals, & just in communicating with her. Ava is incredibly patient and truly enjoys spending time getting to know each individual dog. She will makes your fur babies feel loved and comfortable in her care- & excited to see her each time she visits :)

Ava has watched our 3 dogs on multiple occasions while we have been out of town. Petey, Sam and Diablo get so excited when she comes to stay with them. We have also used her for drop-in walks while we are at work. She is extremely loving, attentive, reliable and nurturing to our wonderful fur babies. We can’t say enough great things about Ava and would highly recommend her for walking/caring for pups!!!!

I am currently on summer break and I have a good amount of free time and my schedule is pretty flexible!
