Dog Sitting Ashland

About: Hi My name is Julie & I’ve been an animal lover all my life. I’ve always had dogs since childhood and now am a proud dog mom to an adorable 10 year old rescue mix. He happily stays with family while I pamper and care for your pet in the comfort of their home environment. I recently decided to turn my passion for animals into a career and would be honored to be trusted to care for your fur baby as if they were my own. Dogs and cats seem to gravitate naturally towards me, I’m able to win over even the shyest pets and love doing so. I am currently working part-time with a highly flexible schedule, allowing me ample time to give your furry friend the love and attention they deserve. As a massage therapist, I bring a gentle touch to my pet care, ensuring your pup receives plenty of petting, belly rubs, and ear scratches—if they enjoy that kind of affection. I prioritize their comfort and well-being, adjusting my daily routine to meet the specific needs of your pet. Whether it's taking them for long, leisurely walks or adhering to a strict feeding schedule, I am dedicated to providing the best care. Additionally, I am experienced in administering medications, ensuring that your pet’s health is always in good hands. Your pup will feel pampered and loved while you are away!

About: I’ve had cats and dogs since I was born. Caring for my furry family has been a part of my life ever since. I helped care for my dogs when they got up there in age. I’m familiar with medicating my own pets and can surely learn your routine too. I’m currently home for school for the summer so I have most days completely free. I’m also one of the main carers for my two furry siblings while I’m home. I’m used to giving pills even if the pet won’t take a pill pocket (my cat won’t either). Rain or shine I’ll take your pet on a walk. Just let me know where the leashes are!

About: I have a 2-year old tuxedo cat named Nova and she is the very sweetest. I have lots of experience with dog sitting and caring for dogs through friends and family. Particularly I regularly helped out with my brother’s dog since she was a puppy and she just turned 13! I work full-time but I work close to home and work remote at least one day a week. Midday drop-ins would need time be scheduled in an advance but I have flexibility with mornings and evenings. I am usually free on weekends so lots more flexibility then. My cat is an indoor cat so she never goes outside. I clean her litter box in and around it every day so she can have a clean area always. When dropping in something I like to do is show affection to pets if they allow me. It’s important to drop in and check in but it’s just as important to show them some love too!

“Franciane took great care of my cat, Bunny! She was respectful, responsive, and great about giving updates and pictures. I will definitely be booking her again in the future!”

About: I treat every dog like family-with love, patience, and attetion. I make sure each pyp feels safe, happy, loved and cared for while you're away. Pet care is part of my daily routine. I set aside time every day for walks, feeding and playtime. i enjoy spending time with animals and always make sure they are well cared for. During walks, I focus on the dog's safety and wellbeing. I choose quiet routes when possible, bring water if it's hot, and make sure they get exercise and simulation. I always treat them withcare and respect

About: I’m especially patient with anxious dogs and take a calm, gentle approach to care. I move at your pet’s pace, focus on comfort and routine, and create a low-stress environment where both dogs and cats can feel safe and relaxed. Your pet will always be treated with kindness, patience, and genuine care. I am available virtually 24/7 to care for your pet, I can work with your schedule and needs. I walk dogs throughout the week. I offer long-term sittings. I would like to offer the ability for your pet to continue their normal routine in their home while you’re away. Letting an animal keep their routine, can lower stress levels and ease anxiety while you’re away.

About: Been in the animal industry for 6+ years working at a shelter, pet clinic and hospitals, vet diagnostics lab and now with lab animals. I have vast knowledge of medical care and being in the lab field, I will be attentive to my clients and can take care of any special request. I have flexible availability for drop in visits and dog walking. I work overnights, and I am also a college student so I’m focusing on mainly drop in visits and dog walking for your needs: I have availability after work (in the mornings after 9am). Weekend time varies and have more flexible availability Unavailable for sitting in my house at the moment due to personal pets. Future consideration is pending for future request after gaining more app experience/knowledge.

About: I am a proud dog aunt and cat mom. Over the past decade I have taken care of many dogs and cats, from hosting them in my home while their people were away, house/pet sitting, to providing home visits and walking. Dog-wise, I have taken care of a wide variety of pals, both size and personality-wise: small dogs, mediums dogs, all the way up to a large mastiffs and Shepards. Couch potatoes, protectors, playful & energetic buds, and snugglers. I have taken care of a dog with a chronic illness requiring particular food preparation. I've taken care of multiple dogs with protective personalities and approach with a mixture of confidence and willingness to meet them where they are. As a cat mom and ongoing cat sitter, I've taken care of my late cat with a chronic illness for many years, requiring a special diet and daily medication; friends' cats shy to new people; and a diabetic cat, requiring regular insulin shots. Cats hold my heart (don't tell the above paragraph.) I am a part-time non-profit consultant. I primarily work from home with occasional meetings out of the house. I am active in community theater, but am working on the administrative end for the foreseeable future, which means I am generally home during evenings. I have a lot of flexibility to build my schedule as needed based on pet care bookings with a few key, short responsibilities each week. You are the expert on your pet. My starting point is your information and guidance. After that, I use my experience meeting and caring for many different animals and personalities. I am an intuitive and patient person. I'm aware that pets may feel differently away from their people and potential away from their environment. I stay attuned to them and meet them where they are. They are aware, intelligent beings with reactions, routines, expectations, and feelings and I don't take that like likely.

“Alyssa was amazing with my two cats! I came home to two happy and healthy babies. She was punctual, accommodating, and very responsible.”

“Gianna was super communicative and attentive, she did a great job taking care of our nervous puppy and making sure he had the best experience for his first Rover visit. She was also so thoughtful about small details, like cleaning his Kong toy and bringing in packages, which goes such a long way :) will book again!”

About: I've been around dogs since I was a baby, from tiny Yorkies to big German Shepherds, and I currently have 2 dogs (one very silly Golden Retriever and one hyperactive mini Dachshund) at home. I'm equally comfortable with cats, having cat-sat before and now living with a long-haired Maine Coon mix. From goofy to chill, I can meet your pet where they're at. I'm currently in my gap year preparing for law school, and all my work is remote, so I have a very flexible schedule. Pet care fits perfectly between studying and writing essays, it's actually the perfect break for both me and a furry friend. I'm happy to work around your schedule, whether that's regular walks, drop-in visits, or something more flexible. For walks and check-ins, I always come prepared with everything I need, including extra supplies in case you're running low at home. I bring treats but always check with the owner first before giving anything to your dog. I'm well versed in choking procedures and pet CPR, and I'm capable of carrying (most) dogs if an emergency situation arises.

About: I am a reliable dog sitter with lifelong caring experience for dogs. I grew up with two dogs, so I understand routines, behavior, and different personalities. I’m comfortable with all kinds of dogs and will always provide loving attention and care. I treat every dog like my own and will keep owners always updated. I work part-time at a restaurant, which gives me a flexible schedule with strong availability on weekday mornings and early afternoons for fun time with your Pup/Dog! I will prioritize safety by following your dogs routine, keeping your environment secure and giving them needed and loving attention and care at all times!

“Sam is great! She watched our oldest kitten when he was just a few months old, and again now that we have two! Our oldest loves playing with her and hanging out, and though our second is a little shy, she did manage to come out at the end of the visit. Sam is reliable and has great communication. Looking forward to booking her again in the future!”

“We have a cat and a house bunny and Nick did a wonderful job taking care of them, who both seemed to love him from his first visit. He was responsible, communicative, and engaging with both pets. I would definitely have him look after our fur babies again any time!”

“Erin was incredibly responsive and able to help on very short notice, which I truly appreciated. She took great care of my dog and made the whole process easy and stress-free. Highly recommend!”

“Rachel has been an awesome find! She is flexible and super communicative. We appreciate her attentiveness to our boy Moose and look forward to continuing to have her care for him!”

Our apartment community has two private dog parks, and we have plenty of walking and hiking trails nearby.

We also only care for one guest dog at a time, which allows us to give your pup plenty of individual attention and make them feel like part of the family. We know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your dog with someone else, and we’ll treat your pup like one of our own! ❤️ James works from home, so there is almost always someone home with the dogs throughout the day.

We provide a safe, comfortable, home-based environment where your dog can be part of our family.

About: Hi! I’m Yasmin, and if there’s one thing you should know about me, it’s that I’ve never met an animal I didn’t love. I grew up on a farm, so being around animals has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. From furry to feathery to scaly, they’ve always had a special place in my heart. Over the years I’ve had all kinds of pets, from hermit crabs and fish to cats and dogs, and I can’t wait to have even more when the time is right! Because I genuinely love animals, I’ve spent a lot of time learning about their care, behavior, and what helps them feel happy and safe. I know every pet is different, and I love getting to know their unique personalities. When I’m not spending time with my own pets, I work as a realtor, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for yours. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just having someone nearby, I’m happy to match their pace and make them feel comfortable while you’re away. I’d love the chance to meet you and your best friend! My goal is to make sure you can leave knowing they’re in loving, reliable hands and maybe make a new furry (or scaly!) friend along the way. 🐾 My schedule is pretty flexible! During the week, I’m typically available after 2:00 PM unless I have a work appointment scheduled. Since I’m a realtor, my schedule can vary from day to day, but I do my best to keep my calendar up to date and communicate any changes. Fridays and weekends are a little less predictable. Some weekends I’m completely available, while others I may be booked with work or personal plans. When I am available on weekends, it’s usually between 9:00 AM and 2:00 PM. If you have a specific date or time in mind, feel free to reach out! I’m always happy to see if I can make it work for you and your pet. 🐾 While I won’t be caring for pets in my own home, I’d be more than happy to care for them in yours! I know every pet has their own routine, personality, and needs, so I always appreciate detailed instructions. The more information you can share, the better I can make sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and well-being will always be my top priorities. I’ll treat them with the same love, patience, and attention I’d give my own pets, and I’ll always keep you updated for extra peace of mind. When it comes to walks, I’m especially mindful during the summer months. I prefer walking dogs on grassy or shaded paths whenever possible, and if it’s too hot outside, I’ll adjust our plans to keep them safe. Hot pavement can burn paw pads, and dogs can overheat quickly, so I always prioritize their comfort and safety over sticking to a schedule.
