Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. I have both a dog and a cat, so I’m used to balancing walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. Because I already plan my days around caring for my own pets, it’s easy for me to incorporate walks, drop-ins, and sitting for others.

Safety, trust & environment

Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. This includes timely feedings, regular walks, playtime, enrichment, and lots of attention. I make sure pets have fresh water, a clean environment, and I closely monitor their behavior to ensure they’re happy and safe.

Information Ava R. would like to know about your pet

I would love for pet owners to inform me of any special needs their pets may have before. I would also find it helpful to know about any allergies or specific requests owners may have.

A typical day

I love keeping pets active and happy! I’ll do neighborhood walks, play fetch or tug, enrichment games, cuddles, basic training practice, and plenty of one-on-one attention tailored to each pet.

Pet care experience

As someone who not only has pets but spent over a year working at a pet store I’ve cared for many different types of dogs, learned how to read animal behavior, and understand the importance of safety, routine, and trust. I’m reliable, attentive, and always prioritize your pet’s comfort and well-being

We love having Ava walk our lively Schnoodle. He needs his walk every day, and his humans are sometimes busy or not feeling well enough to take him. We really appreciate her! And it makes Kevin very happy!

Ava has such a caring heart and loves all animals! She has previous experience as a pet walker & has worked in a local pet store. She cares for her own dog & cat so loving & while at the pet store would frequently pick out just the right surprises to bring home for her dog & cat. She has taken her dog on many wonderful adventures—to the dog park, the pet store & to see Christmas lights to name a few! She would care for your dog just like her own & is a wonderful pet walker!
