Pet care experience

Pet care with love and attention

Hi there, I'm Avery. I am a professional pet sitter, fine artist (painter and photographer) and yoga & wellness instructor. I truly adore pets and all animals and find pet sitting to be the perfect way to spend time with new pets and meet loving pet owners in my community. I recently spent 4 years working and studying in France where I continued to pet and house sit for French pet owners and expats alike. As a pet owner myself, I know how nerve racking it can be to leave your pet while you're away. With over 6 years of professional experience as well as a lifetime of pet care growing up around all types of animals, I can assure you much needed peace of mind. With reliable and fluid communication (expect many photo updates), loving pet care, and the utmost attention to whatever special needs your pet requires, you'll have nothing to worry about. A bit more about me: I grew up in the hills of the Bluegrass, Kentucky with Saint Bernards, Rotties, Great Danes, cats, fish, hamsters - you name it! I started professionally sitting over 6 years ago in Austin, TX, where I set up my own side business. I continued in New Orleans where I had lived for nearly 8 years (including graduating from Tulane) as well as most recently in Aix-en-Provence, France, where I was pursuing a fine arts degree at the master level. I cherish being outdoors, taking walks every day, going to Audubon and City Park, etc. and will be happy to have your pups along with me. Pets are loved like family, and that's exactly how I will treat yours. Schedule wise, as an artist and photographer, I work from home daily and have a flexible schedule, my own pet-friendly vehicle, and a friendly, mature attitude and dedicated work ethic. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Avery

Safety, trust & environment

With over 6 years of professional pet sitting experience as well as a lifetime of pet care with family pets, I can assure you safe, reliable and loving care for your pet babies. I have lots of experience with overnights, as long as 2-3 weeks even, and can provide references. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to be reassured of your pet sitters' ability. Have no fear! I will treat your pet babies exactly as I do my own, as family.

Avery was such a perfect match for my pup (who doesn’t like to be left alone)! She updated me on everything with pictures and videos. Will definitely be using her again in the future.

Schedule

I'm currently working as a full-time artist from home, which means I'll be with your pet pretty much all day or night, depending on what you're looking for - plenty of time for attention, cuddles and any special needs they require. For drop-ins and dog walking, I set my own schedule as so have extreme flexibility to meet your schedule needs.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Avery can host up to 4 drop-ins per day
I have cared for many aging pups and cats who require special attention and medication. This is no problem at all and I'm happy to give them exactly the special care they need. My own cat requires extremely dedicated attention - this is no extra stress at all. Please let me know whatever you all need.
