Highlights
Pet care experience
Professional & Loving Pet Care
I have been caring for dogs since I was a teenager. I have experience training dogs, most notably my dog of 14 years who recently passed this year. Since her passing I’ve had the desire to care for animals and help families give their pets the love and attention they deserve. I love dog walking and playing with dogs of all kinds. I love having dogs in the home.

Ratings and reviews
This is my second time going to Ayana and she’s amazing. My dog Levi loves her!
This was our time leaving Winston with Ayana. She communicated with me, sent pictures and Winston looked very comfortable. He's still adjusting, but I do plan to book again soon.
Ayana is so good with my husky. She responds in a timely manner and just makes me feel at ease when I have to go out of town and need someone reliable to watch her. She treated my fur baby like a part of her family. 1000% would recommend
Very friendly, communicative, and loving to my sweet pups! They normally don’t eat when we travel because they’re missing us, but they even ate the night we left, says a lot about her character. Will absolutely use her again for future travels!!
I would not use her services again. When I booked her service she said she could handle the times I requested but might be 'a little late' on Sunday and Monday. I said the times were flexible but I did not expect her to take that to the extreme. I think she must have overbooked herself because she wound up being 5 to 6 hours late most days... Even walking the dogs at 10:30 at night on a few occasions... Even though I asked her not to walk them at night. I texted her to clarify my expectations after two days but that did not change her behavior. Finally I modified the booking so she we would have fewer visits but that also did not help... Things actually got a little worse. She would not respond to my texts and continued to shown up late and many of the visits were short. All of this would have been OK if she had been honest or apologetic but she was not. She had great reviews and was very nice when I met her before the booking dates but like I said, I think she overbooked herself and rather than be honest so I could make other arrangements or ask a neighbor to help out she just continued to show up late and not meet the terms of our original agreement. I wound up worrying the whole time if my dogs wod be taken care of or not. Ultimately she did visit every day so they did get at least some of the care I requested but every day I was worried she would not show up. I've been using rover for several years and this was my first bad experience. Hopefully she learned from this and it won't happen again with other clients.
So blessed and grateful for Ayana. The dogs were well taken care of and seemed to enjoy being there! She is very communicative and I plan to keep using her services for my boys! BOOK HER!!

Schedule
I have a very flexible schedule as I’m studying for my board exams and love to plan in advance. I already walk daily and would love to incorporate your dog’s exercise in with my routine. I walk about 3 times a day.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced back yard, live near a lot of parks, and can follow your detailed feeding instructions. I know you know your dog best, so I like to ask questions to ensure your animal will be comfortable and feel safe. I have experience administering medicine and understand doggy body language very well. My goal is to foster a safe and loving environment that respects your pet’s space and comfort level.
A typical day
I love going on walks! We can play fetch in the back yard, plenty of cuddles, and enjoy each other’s company. I am home most days with the occasional errand. I take pictures throughout the day so that you know your pet is in good hands.
