Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced & Caring Pet Sitter
Hi! I’m currently a college student at Ole Miss and looking for some summer work! I’m a lifelong animal lover with hands-on experience caring for a full house with now three cats and previously two dogs so I’m very comfortable managing different personalities, energy levels, and routines all at once. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have prior experience with dog walking, pet sitting, and house sitting. I’m confident handling everything from daily walks and playtime to overnight stays and keeping a home running smoothly while you’re away. Because I have both cats and dogs, I understand how different their needs can be. I’m experienced with feeding schedules, litter box care, administering basic medications, and making sure pets stay on their normal routine so they feel safe and stress-free. I’m very attentive, reliable, and treat every pet like my own. Whether your dog needs long walks and lots of energy or your cat prefers a calm, quiet environment, I adjust to what works best for them. I also know how important updates are, so you can expect regular messages and photos while you’re away. Your pets’ comfort, safety, and happiness are always my top priorities!

I focus on keeping the pets routine as consistent as possible leaving the animal stress-free. I make sure the pets feel comfortable as they are in their own homes. I provide a safe, calm, and friendly environment where the pets feel comfortable is my priorty.
Ratings and reviews
Avery has taken excellent care of our cats over the last ten years. She follows our very detailed directions on the different types of food they eat and is perfectly comfortable handling meds of all kinds. Val tells us she gives the best ear scratches, and Serafina will assure your cats that her lap is super comfy! Avery will also send you pictures to show you all the fun they are having with her. Would recommend her without reservation to care for your cherished pets.
Avery is so amazing with my fur baby! I have had her watch my golden retriever many times while going out of town for weeks on end and I always knew he was in the best care! Monkey gets so excited when he sees Avery, almost like he’s ready for me to go somewhere again to spend time with her! She’s very intentional and good at updating me multiple times a day. You can be sure your fur baby will be in the best hands while staying with Avery!
On multiple occasions, Avery has taken care of my dogs who are thrilled whenever they see her. Avery is a responsible individual who has always been engaging with both of my 80+ pound labs (& it takes a lot of energy to keep them entertained!). Avery alleviated any stress I had related to the dogs on my wedding night as she cared for them as if they were her own. I highly recommend Avery to care for your pets - she’ll go above and beyond any expectations!
Avery has been an incredible dog walker. She’s consistently reliable and always shows up when expected, which gives great peace of mind. Her communication is exactly what you’d want—she keeps you informed when needed without overdoing it. Most importantly, the dogs absolutely love her and get genuinely excited every time they see her. It’s clear she cares and builds a real connection with them. Highly recommend!
Avery Alfama has been my best friend for the past five years. Throughout these five years, we have always shared a bond over our love for animals, on top of being there for each other through the loss of both of our dogs. I've never seen Avery as a "dog person" or "cat person"; she has always made it obvious that she is a lover of all furry friends, and I cannot think of someone better to care for pets.
Avery is a responsible and dependable dog walker who will talk, snuggle, walk, and play with your dog. Treats every dog like they are her own with love, patience and respect. She is also a good communicator and will be happy to answer any questions you may have while away and/or she will reach out with any questions she may have that come up during her time of caregiving for your pet. Highly recommend.

Schedule
I currently work part-time so I have plenty of time to hang out with your pets. I normally work mornings or nights. I have three cats of my own and used to have a dog. It would be a priority for me to spend time with your animals.
