About Ava

I am a massive animal lover! I have been raised with animals since I was born, and I can not imagine my life without them - they bring me so much joy and love! I have an abundance of experience in looking after cats & dogs (including senior dogs). I have cared for most dog breeds, ranging from shih tzus to bull mastiffs - and I love them all! 

Here is some essential information to get to know me & the services I provide:

  • My apartment has been set up to provide a safe and adequate space for pets, prioritising their comfort. This includes toys, blankets, and a grass pee pad for dogs or a litter tray for cats. I can also provide rain and anxiety jackets where necessary.
  • For dogs booked for boarding or daycare, my price includes regular trips outside to go to the toilet and have a sniff, as well as one walk a day (the length depends on your pet's needs, but can range from 10 - 40 minutes)
  • For pets booked for boarding or daycare, I only take on one pet at a time to maximise the care and attention provided to your pet (and to ensure they have adequate space to play and zoom around my apartment!)
  • For dog walks and house visits, I can do up to two visits a day, and can take on 2 pets at a time. These visits/walks average around 30-45minutes.
  • I am confident in administering medications and am experienced in looking after senior dogs and animals with health issues.
  • As a university student, my availability is super flexible, and I spend the majority of my time at home studying from home. However, as I am out for several hours a week at my casual job, I can only take bookings for animals that can be guaranteed to have no barking/crying tendencies, as I have to be mindful of my neighbours. 
  • For the brief periods I am out, I have a security camera to check in on your pet from my phone. With this being said, please keep in mind that not all pets are suited to the apartment lifestyle - particularly if they bark or cry a lot if left alone for even 10 minutes.
  • I live with my partner (who is also a massive cat & dog lover!) and we do not have any animals of my own, meaning your pet will get heaps of attention from the both of us.
  • Your pet will sleep inside, wherever they feel most comfortable - their bed, my couch, but most often they enjoy snuggling up in bed with me
  • I have a police check and testimonials from previous clients that can be provided upon request
  • During their stay with me, your pet's every need will be attended to; with a focus on making sure they are kept safe and loved so that both you and your pet can enjoy your holiday. 

     Feel free to message me if you have any questions, thank you!
