Pet care experience
I’ve had animal companions my whole life, and have volunteered with animal rescues for over 20 years. I’m experienced with both kitten/puppy as well as senior animals, as my own pet companions have experienced all the life stages. I’m well-versed in giving fluids, injections, and other meds to senior animals, as my cat Pandora went through the struggles of renal disease for 4 years. I am also experienced in dealing with animals suffering from anxiety, trauma, and other behavioral issues. I’m currently the pet parent of two cats and two lizards, so I bring reptile knowledge to the table, as well! I’ve also parented several small animals, so if you have these in your home, I’d be more than happy to help with them, too!
Reviews
We asked Ashley to watch our cats for a few days while we were out of town and she was awesome! It’s hard for us to be away from them because they are pretty social, so it was nice having someone reliable and caring to stop by. Ashley was very responsive to all messages and we loved reading the daily reviews/ seeing the photos she took for us. She gave them the love, care, and attention they needed while we were gone! Thank you so much Ashley!
Thank you again, Ashley! I always love the pics and updates while we’re gone. We know the cats are well taken care of with you and it always gives us a peace of mind when we’re away. We appreciate you greatly!!
Ashley is always so awesome!!
Ashley is amazing!!! She is always ontime and plays with our little babies. Our little black cat, Bean, is usually pretty aloof but came out for Ashley. Love that!
About Ashley R.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Most care will be done in your home, as we have four animal babies here. We do have accommodations for smaller pets and reptiles, though. At your home, I am hyper aware of making sure doors are closed to restrict escape artists and have a wide knowledge of animal dangers, plus many vet friends on close speed dial! As a runner, I know the safest walking routes in town, and am always hyper vigilant about safety (I’m a human parent, too—so it comes with the territory! 😁)
Home
Information Ashley R. would like to know about your pet
I would love to know any and all quirks your animal companion has, as well as allergies, aversions, and preferences. Of course, if they’re taking medication or have any specifics about their routine that are unusual, I would love to know that as well.
A typical day
For both dogs and cats (and others), I’d let them lead. That might mean toy time or super long walks, or that might mean simply giving pets and snuggles. I’ve experienced all temperaments and energy levels, and am prepared to meet them all! If it’s okay with you, and weather providing, I’d love to take your dog on a fun trail or to the dog park!

Availability
I'm an educator, so my summer/school break schedule is mostly wide open--and my school schedule allows me to be off at times others in traditional work settings are not. I’m generally available weekends, too!
