I’ve been told I’m an animal wiser

Pet care experience

I’ve grown up with many pets throughout my life. I’ve raised kittens since I was 4 when I found an alley cat and brought it home. We had up to 10 cats in our house at a time. I always walked my neighbors dogs, watched my brothers dog and did a lot of dog sitting. All the pets I’ve gotten to know have very different personalities and I love to focus my energy on what each pet wants. I’m experienced in giving pets medication and training. I promise to treat your pet with care and love.

Fiona and i absolutely love Aviva! We had the joy of having her walk my Fiona for months and I’ve never been happier! Any dog owner would be lucky to have her, she is an absolute gem! Thank you so much girl! We love you!

I wholeheartedly recommend Vivi for her exemplary dog-sitting services. When my travels took me away, she cared for my dog, Monkey, who passed away last year, with immense love and attention. Vivi's natural bond with Monkey, understanding of her needs, and her kindness left a significant positive impact on Monkey's life and mine. Vivi's professionalism and genuine care are unparalleled. She constantly sent photos of them playing, always made sure she was fed, walked and happy. Vivi is not just a dog sitter, but was a cherished friend to Monkey and a beacon of trust for me. I can't recommend her enough.

Aviva is honest as the day is long ! She used to find kittens in the alley and hand feed them. Her love of animals is endless. She is kindhearted and genuine. It's hard to find people reliable and responsible these days, she is both ! Your pet will love her! She is patient and firm when she needs to be with a misbehaving animal. She has worked with horses and goats as well.

Vivi is incredibly compassionate and caring with all animals. Over the years, she’s watched our dog many times and we feel confident that he is in the best hands while we’re away. She is so loving and makes sure she understands the pet’s needs while in her care. Highly recommend Aviva if you are looking for someone to take as good care of your beloved animal as you do!

I currently offer pet sitting at clients homes. I start off my services getting to know my clients routines with their pets. (When they like to be fed, walked, play.) I like to make the experience as comfortable as possible for both pet and human and keep their schedules as similar as possible. I offer pet training and like to see what experience level your pet is currently at. I also like to discuss what training specifically my clients are looking for.

Information Aviva J. would like to know about your pet

The more information the better! I like to make this as comfortable for pet and owner so any extra information will help a lot. I must know what medication your pet is on, if you have any specific vets you want me to take them too incase of emergency. What there diet is like, what their exercise routine is, and more personal. If you allow your pet to sleep with you. If they have a favorite toy. If they are more obedient when you call them their nickname instead of there real name.

A typical day

It really depends on the dog and their needs. Every morning I go for a jog and if the dog is up to it I’d be happy to have them as my running buddy. After work I have endless time and energy to give your pet the attention it deserves!

I currently work from 11-3 and am planning to start school in the new few months. I’m doing school online to help me keep a flexible schedule. I’m an early riser so taking pets for a walk in the morning is something I don’t have a problem with. I love to run and can take any dogs with me for my runs morning or afternoon.
