About: Hi, I'm Ash! I've grown-up and taken care of dogs & cats of ever kind since I was a child. I've always been the trusted fur "auntie" for my family, my friends and my neighbors when they needed an extra hand taking care of thier pets. I own my own hair & makeup company that allows me to build my own schedule. I have flexible availability during the week for walks, feedings and cuddles! I work most Saturdays for a few hours in the morning, but I am available in the evenings and most Sundays are completely open. I offer in-home pet-sitting services, so your pets can stay comfortable in their own environment while you're away. Whether it's feeding, walking, playing, or just providing some company and cuddles, I treat every pet like they're my own. I'm responsible, respectful of your home, and committed to making sure your pets are safe, happy, and well cared for. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust, and I’m here to provide peace of mind while you're gone!

“Wesley was fantastic with our pups! Working 12hr shifts it can be challenging to find someone to check on and walk my two mini poodles, so I am very thankful Wesley was able to make time for them! Wesley also took the time amidst a busy schedule to meet the fur family which really helped😊🫶🙌”


About: I'm a nurse, so, I typically work 3 days a week and have the other 4 off which makes for a lot of availability and flexibility to help walk or watch your fur baby! I have a dog named Butch, he was a stray from Puerto Rico that was basically feral when I got him. I successfully domesticated and trained him and he's turned into the sweetest, chill dog ever! Butch has skin issues and separation anxiety, so, I also have experience in administering oral and injectable medications. I'd be happy to use whatever commands and training techniques you use with your pet as well. I typically work three 12hr shifts a week and they are usually week days so I am frequently available Thursday-Sunday for long weekends to watch or walk your dog and some weeks I'm available a day or two earlier in the week. I have a lot of flexibility and availability for the weekends and toward the end of the week though! I have a 6ft privacy fence in the backyard, my neighborhood is very walkable with sidewalks, and a sweet dog named Butch who is about 6 who will easily and quickly become friends with your fur baby. Pets are allowed on furniture and beds in my home but I am willing to crate yours if that is what you prefer!

“Tiffany was so great with my energetic dogs! She kindly agreed to meet in person before booking, since I was going to be out of town. She communicated with me quickly with any concerns. I will definitely be using her again for future drop ins and walks.”


“Jessica has been fantastic with Cooper and I would highly recommend her. Very personable and caring.”


“Halie was so communicative and patient with our dog who is new to being walked by strangers! Thank you for working with us and making us feel so comforted knowing Holly is in good hands”


“Megin was wonderful with our schnauzers. We came home to a clean house and happy dogs!! Thank you Megin for a restful vacation because we knew our pups were in good hands”
