Pet care experience
Hello, my name is Ashley, and I am an occupational therapist. I currently moved to the Virginia area with my boyfriend. I’ve been an animal lover all my life. I have been vegetarian for over 7 years now due to my immense passion for the well-being of animals. I currently have 4 cats of my own (Tigger/Tux/Nova/Fatty), but my family and I have rescued/fostered many cats. My boyfriend and I have a German Shepard (Ghost). We love taking Ghost to the dog park! I’ve taken care of my friends’ dogs and cats since a very young age. My boyfriend and I are currently building an outdoor catio area for the cats! Yes- I am a crazy cat lady! I am very observant and have experience with animals who have had medical issues. My cat recently had a scare where her right forearm went flaccid. Luckily, I was able to utilize my occupational therapy skills to identify issues and get her the care she needs. I have skills to administer oral medication as my cat requires a daily pill. I will do drop in visits to take care of your cats or dogs as well as walk the dogs (or cats if needed 😉)! I hope I can be of service to you and take the best care of your animals!
Reviews
Nice job by Ashley caring for my cat over Thanksgiving week!
Ashley was wonderful! She responded quickly and was very communicative throughout everything. She sent great updates and pictures each time she walked our dog. We’re looking forward to working with her again in the future!
My pup definitely had a great time!! Was so efficient with her scheduled time and followed all directions. Would definitely book again
Ashley did a great job with my pup. She was on time, kept me updated with pictures, and was flexible with scheduling. Will use again

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced in yard which my dog can run freely! There are lights in the backyard where we can keep an eye on her at night. We are currently building an outdoor catio for the cats to enjoy the outdoor area. Safety is a number one priority.
Information Ashley D. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog/cat has any special needs such as medications, certain behaviors, etc! I want to provide the best care for your pets. The more information, the more detailed care I can provide.
A typical day
I can walk the dogs anywhere you would like depending on their activity level. I love exercise and walk almost everyday outside when I can. I try to walk my dog and take her to the dog park as often as possible. I will play with your animals and give them all the love they need.
