“Our dog Milo a retired military dog recently lost his sister and had some loss anxiety. Ashley was so patient and kind with him, even though he out weights her 😂🙈, she didn’t rush him to warm up and after a day he was already comfortable with her and he became his normal giant teddy bear lapdog self with her. Ashley was always communicative about her visits and never failed to show up :) she will Definetly have our service for whenever we have to go out of town for business!”

About: I go out of my way to make sure your pet feels comfortable and at home while you’re away. I’ll send daily updates and photos so you can relax knowing they’re happy and well cared for. Every pet is different, so I take the time to get to know their personality and needs to make sure they get the best care possible. I am currently home full time and am able to give your pet my undivided attention. Available for flexible hours, including weekends and holidays. I’m open to last-minute bookings and will happily meet beforehand to discuss your pet’s needs. I understand the importance of keeping pets happy, healthy, and safe while you’re away. I go above and beyond to offer personalized care. Whether it’s playing their favorite game, offering treats they love, or following a strict feeding schedule. I communicate regularly so you’ll always know how your pet is doing, and I’m always available to answer any questions. I have a big fenced in back yard with grass and a deck for doggy sun bathing.

About: Pets have brought me so much joy in my life thus far! I’ve owned cats, dogs, ferrets, mice, iguanas, and snakes! There’s no pet friend that I don’t want to meet! I work as a Realtor so I have a very flexible schedule! Happy to pop by to help in a pinch, but would truly love to form a relationship with your fur creature! I’m happy to come to your home to provide care for them. I understand that most pets feel safest in their own space and I’m willing to deliver that experience for you!

“Kayla did a good job checking in on my cats while I was away. She refilled their water, changed their litter, cleaned up vomit, and played with them.”


About: I would love to meet your adorable furry family member(s)! I currently own 9 cats and a dog, the eldest of my babies is 16 years old! I work as a veterinary technician and help foster critically ill kittens for a shelter. Please contact me if you have any questions regarding the services I offer and rates.
