Safety, trust & environment

I try to be as available as possible when taking care of pets. This means staying with them as much as possible, spending the night, etc. At the owners request! I also don’t mind doing work such as bathroom cleanup, brushing, certain foods, administering pills, etc. Whenever I take care of someone’s animals, I like to treat them as my own and prioritize their wellbeing!

Information Avery R. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know about any special needs ahead of time! This includes medical, physical, certain behaviors, routines, etc. I want to take the best care possible!!

A typical day

Love going for walks with dogs and playing the games they like (fetch, chasing, tug of war, etc.)!! Also enjoy running if you’re doggy likes that! I am more than willing to go on runs, ranging from 1-6 miles with your pup!!! If you have any puzzles or anything, I’d be happy to do them too.

Pet care experience

I am a lifelong animal lover! I have had dogs my whole life, and currently have 2 senior dogs that I am trusted to take care of. In addition, I pet sit for neighbors when they are away, and have done so throughout high school and college. I also adopted a cat in 2021, doing the necessary research for cat ownership! And have had a gecko, so I am no stranger to reptiles.

Avery's the best pet sitter I've ever used on Rover! I highly recommend her-you can tell she's one of the sitter's on here that's in it for the animals not the money! Every time she walks my dog Monkey, he comes back tail waggling in excitement. Anyways, if you're in the Pittsburgh area, please reach out to Avery for any of your pet needs.

I can’t say enough good things about Avery! She’s watched our dogs a number of times in our home and things couldn’t have gone better. I was nervous on her first stay as one of our pups is very slow to warm up to strangers. Wasn’t the case here at all, within the first hour they were off on a walk! Avery is caring, responsible and great to work with. Highly recommend!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
