Availability

As a college student, I plan my pet care around my class schedule and have plenty of availability outside of class times. I’m free most mornings, evenings, and weekends. My classes are spread out during the day, which allows me to provide consistent check-ins, walks, feedings, and quality time while still maintaining a reliable routine for each pet.

Safety, trust & environment

I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes, where pets are most comfortable and routines stay consistent. I prioritize safety by carefully following all care instructions, securing doors and gates, and maintaining a calm, clean environment. I respect each home and communicate regularly with updates so owners feel confident their pets are safe and well cared for.

Information Ava W. would like to know about your pet

Before watching your pet, I like to know their daily routine, feeding schedule, and any medications or special needs. It’s also helpful to know their personality, energy level, and anything they might be nervous or reactive about. Little details like leash habits, favorite toys, and what they love (or hate) help me make sure they’re comfortable, safe, and well cared for.

A typical day

A typical day of dog-sitting starts with ensuring each dog is comfortable and happy in their own home. I follow the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, and administering any necessary medications. Throughout the day, I spend time checking in on them, giving them attention, and keeping their environment clean and safe. I also provide updates and photos to owners so they feel confident and reassured while they’re away.

Loving Care for Dogs & Cats

Pet care experience

I’ve been dog-sitting for three neighbors for over five years and have also provided cat care. I own two Great Danes and previously had a cat, so I’m comfortable with large breeds, daily routines, and attentive care. I’m patient, experienced, and confident caring for both energetic pets and seniors.
