Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine consistent and their environment comfortable. I follow all provided instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and any special needs. I ensure plenty of playtime, walks, and affection to keep pets happy and relaxed. I also keep the home tidy, respecting your space as if it were my own. My goal is to provide your pet with the same love and care they’re used to while you’re away.

Information Ava N. would like to know about your pet

I deeply value any and all information you can share about your furbaby, no matter how small or sensitive it might seem. I know how much love and care you put into their daily life, and my goal is to honor that while you’re away. Please know that I never judge—every pet has their own personality, quirks, and needs, and that’s what makes them so special. Whether it’s a nervous habit, a dietary preference, or a challenging behavior, I would so much rather know than risk making them uncomfortable. Your furbaby’s happiness and well-being mean everything to me, and I’m here to support them in every way I can.

A typical day

When caring for your furbaby, I prioritize maintaining their normal routine to ensure they feel comfortable and happy while you’re away. Whether it’s sticking to their usual walk schedule, feeding times, or play routines, I’ll make sure their day feels as familiar as possible. For fun, I love taking pups on long walks, playing their favorite games like fetch or tug-of-war, and giving them plenty of attention and belly rubs. If your furbaby enjoys learning or practicing tricks, we can incorporate that too! My goal is to keep them entertained, active, and loved, just like you would.

Pet care experience

Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up on a 60-horse farm and have spent years caring for animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’ve also been pet sitting through Rover for over 2 years and genuinely love getting to know each pet as an individual. I’ve raised puppies, cared for senior dogs, owned small dogs, and currently have my own German Shepherd. My family also has Standard Poodles and a Rhodesian Ridgeback, so I’m comfortable with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels. Whether your pet is outgoing and playful or takes a little time to warm up, I’m happy to work at their pace and make sure they feel comfortable. As a self-employed horse trainer, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate your pet’s needs and provide more personalized attention than many sitters can. I understand how important routines, safety, and communication are, and I’ll always treat your pet with the same care and attention I’d want for my own. My goal is simple: for your pet to be happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I work for myself as a horse trainer, which means I have a flexible schedule and can often accommodate times that don’t work for people with traditional jobs. Whether your pet is a high-energy puppy, a senior who needs a little extra patience, or somewhere in between, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. I know how hard it can be to leave your pet with someone else. I’ll make sure they get lots of attention, stick to their routine, and I’ll keep you updated so you can enjoy your time away knowing they’re being well cared for.

Ava was so great and took such good care of our pup! She was very communicative, shared pictures and kept us updated. We felt comfortable with Ava staying in our home, and that our pup would be well looked after. We'll definitely look to Ava for future stays and sitting! Thank you Ava!
