Safety, trust & environment

With my current situation, I am only able to care for large pets such as dogs in my client’s home. I have a reliable mode of transportation meaning I can drive myself whenever needed. I have plenty of space in an extra room to care for small pets if that is the case!

Information Ava W. would like to know about your pet

Before watching a dog, I would love to know mainly what their personality is like and if they have any special needs. I would need to know if they don’t get the best along with certain people or other animals so we can steer clear on the walk!

A typical day

When visiting dogs, I love spending quality time with them based on their personality and energy level. Whether it’s going on walks, playing fetch, giving belly rubs, or just keeping them company, I always make sure they feel comfortable, happy, and cared for. I enjoy giving dogs plenty of attention and enrichment while also sticking to their normal routine so they feel safe and relaxed while their owner is away. I also make sure they get lots of love, exercise, and patience! If they are comfortable, I’d love to take the dog out to a local park to explore all the smells!

Pet care experience

I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. Growing up, I cared for my own small dog and regularly watched family members’ and neighbors’ dogs through walks, feeding, playtime, and overnight care. I’ve also expanded my experience by volunteering at a local animal shelter, where I walk and care for dogs with a wide range of personalities and energy levels. I have delt with numerous dogs with high energy personalities or sometimes ones with bad behavior habits. I always handle situations with care and would love to wear your dog out! I genuinely love being around animals and always make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owner is away. I’m very attentive, reliable, and responsible, whether that means sticking to feeding schedules, providing exercise and enrichment, or simply giving dogs lots of attention and affection. My goal is always to treat every dog like they’re my own and provide the best care possible. When visiting your fur baby I would love to take them on a walk have a good play session and give them all the attentive care they need!
