Information Avital Z. would like to know about your pet

It is helpful for me to know if your dog gets along with other dogs, if they like people, and if they have any triggers we would come in contact with.

A typical day

I enjoy hiking, playing fetch and tug of war with dogs as well as bringing them on many walks. I have experience making homemade lickmats and can definitely do that if you’d like.

Animal lover w/ a lot of experience

Pet care experience

I’ve been an animal lover for my whole life! I have experience with dogs of many sizes and breeds, cats, cows, and chickens. Walking dogs is one of my favorite things to do. I have worked for a dog walking company for the past 3 years. Also, I have worked on multiple farms where I’ve cared for farm animals and dogs/cats. I will care for your pet as if they were my own!

My two dogs had a wonderful experience with Avital! She was very kind and patient with my small dog who is very shy around all of three people in his life. By the end of the 4 days we had hired Avital for, our shy boy adored her! 100% recommend her for any of your pet needs! We look forward to working with Avital for all of our future pet-sitter needs! She is wonderful, patient, and kind; everything you hope the person you’re entrusting your fur babies to be!

Avital is amazing!!! She’s watched my dog Luna multiple times now and every time she sends picture updates which are always appreciated. One time my return flight was cancelled and I couldn’t get back to her until a day later and Avital was flexible and communicative the whole time. I would trust her with my dog any time.

Avital was truly fantastic ! Communicative, reliable, friendly and responsible. I felt very comfortable with her walking my Australian Shepard Charlie! Would absolutely hire again!
