About: I have had a few pets growing up however after I got out of the military I used my VA benefits to get a degree in veterinary medicine. Something I aspired to do since I was very young. I have 4 years of general practice experience in Colorado, where I also pet sat for many clients in the mean time. I then moved here to Kentucky where I got a job at Nashville veterinary specialists and emergency and have done ER medicine for 3 years. I love animals more than anything and would do absolutely everything possible for anyones pet. I do work nights on a rotating schedule but I can bring any pet to work with me so they wont be home alone for extended periods of time. When I am off I rarely do anything out of work, making your pet my priority at all times. I always do my best to follow routines if you have one. I have also have no issues sharing pictures or daily texts on how pets are doing so you have peace of mind while away. i am also very respectful of peoples homes as that is how I would want it if I were in that position.
About: I’ve taken care of a variety of animals since I was a kid. Rats, ferrets, big dogs, small dogs, pets with medical issues, you name it. Since living on my own I also took on two special needs senior dogs, who require daily medications and injections so I’m very familiar with that! I also have my own cats and two lovely rats. I love all animals of all sizes and will always take care of them like my own. I currently work part time, so I’m home most days of the week. I have lots of time to take care and love on your fur babies! I’m also available on the weekends and most holidays. I have a big yard, and my own friendly fur babies to keep yours company when I’m away. If your animal needs to be crated, or separated from other animals, that’s okay too. Whatever makes them the most comfortable (:

About: Having years of experience caring for family pets of all shapes and sizes, I can provide your pets with the one on one time they deserve while you're away. I have provided care for a wide range of dogs, from weeks old puppies, to senior dogs getting ready to cross the rainbow bridge. My love for dogs has encouraged me to pursue a career doing what I love, playing with dogs and making their overall wellbeing my priority. I take your dogs day to day routine into account when doing any sort of activities; from how long they typically like to go for walks, to the level of interaction they like during play time. I consider every dog a friend I haven't made yet, and I love sharing that sort of relationship with every dog I meet. Being a pet parent myself, the first thing I do when I wake up in the morning is pet care. I understand that every animal is unique and requires personalized care. I always make sure to respect the pets personal space and I always go at the pace set by the pet. Their comfort and happiness is my top priority.
“Great communication and very nice! Bailey walked my Doberman and German Shepard. My Doberman is very shy when meeting new people and she was great with him. Will definitely be booking again.”
About: I’ve taken care of cats since I was 5 years old. I haven take care of dogs for the last 6 years. I have also had a litter of kittens and 2 litters of puppies. I will look after any animal like it’s my own. I enjoy playing and walks with animals. I’m interviewing full time jobs so looking to do pet care till I’m working. I can come anytime during the day and multiple times as needed. My dogs are fed twice daily and let out multiple times of the day to get all their exercise and play out. They are crate trained so when need to leave they go in there.
About: I grew up on a hobby farm in Wisconsin and worked with many animals including cows, horses, pigs, goats, chickens, but my favorites were always the dogs. Growing up I can’t remember a time in which I haven’t been taking care of an animal wether it was walking them, feeding them, bathing them, or just giving them the love and attention they deserve. During the week I work from home. I’d be able to toilet your fur baby every 2-4 hours. We do have a yard with a fenced in portion they can play at.Your pup wouldn’t have to be alone as I have an 1 year old German Shepard for them to play with. We are very active including walks in the morning before work and after work. We are outside as much as we can be. I care for pets by waking up early in the morning for walks, make sure their tummies are full before I start work in the day. During the day since I work remote I’m able to cater to their needs and lifestyle. Every night we would end up going on walks in the neighbor hood or playing in our backyard.I know it’s hard to be away from your pets especially during vacation time. I would send picture updates of your fur babies during their stay.

I have many additional references available upon request! I look forward to meeting and bonding with your fur baby!

About: I’ve been taking care of animals for a few years. I have experience with just about every animal. I used to house sit for a family who had 7 horses, 4 dogs, 6 cats, 2 bunnies and a pig so I am more than open to having more than one of your fur babies to look after. I’m open to staying at your house with you animals and also doing drop ins and walks. I’m open to elderly dogs to young pups same with cats. I’m currently not working anywhere but I do occasionally go to LBL and spend a few days out there with friends and family. I will be soon starting a job in the medical field hopefully but right now I’m enjoying my first summer after graduating. I have a toy poodle and a cat who are both animal friendly, sadly I can’t care for animals in my home as I still live with my parents. I am know to rescue cats and kittens on occasion and find them loving homes. I will take your fur babies on walks and have plenty of play time. If your fur baby has specific medical needs please give me a heads up so I can prepare accordingly. If I stay in house with your animals I’ll be sure everything is left as it was when I arrived there. If I do drop ins I’ll be sure to come out plenty times throughout the day and spend some time with them so they aren’t lonely and get plenty of play time. If I am caring for your fur baby expect lots of pictures and videos and lots of updates.

Ashley L.
“I originally hired Ashley to walk my two large dogs (Husky 3yrs and German Shepherd 1yr) around the neighborhood M-F around lunch time while I was at work. I could see on my home cameras her compassion towards my boys when she arrived and how happy they were coming back from their walk. I then asked her to stay overnight with them on Friday and Saturday while I was away on a trip. My boys just loved her! She stuck to the schedule I left her and kept me up to date with texts and photos the whole time. I could see on the camera her taking them for walks, playing with them multiple times a day, and giving them the care they needed! My boys and I are very lucky to find someone as caring as Ashley!! I definitely recommend her!!”
Chloe N.
“Chloe has taken care of my dog, Theo, on multiple occasions. I have anxiety about leaving him with other people, except for Chloe.

There is no one better suited to take care of sweet pets.”
