Pet care experience
I work from home so have plenty of flexibility to walk your pup any time they want! I grew up with dogs and love them more than most humans. I had a furry little buddy (in my profile pic) who passed away in 2019 at 13 from a terminal illness so I’m experienced with older dogs who require medication and special dietary needs. When he was little, I taught him to ring a bell to go outside to potty & how to play fetch. I give treats to incentivize good behavior -- NOT punishment for bad behavior (that doesn't truly work!) Also, I don't believe in yelling at animals. They get treats, cuddles & praise from me! All walks are on-leash and with a flashlight if in the evening. There are plenty of other dog friends in my neighborhood but I plan to avoid them as an added precaution.There are plenty of grassy areas as well as sidewalks and walk/bike lanes on a quiet street when it’s time to “go potty” and stretch our legs. No children in my home. I have recently adopted a 6-year old rescue Shih Tzu that lives with me. Most of the time, he just rests beside me. He is a bit scared of other dogs but curious about them and wags his tail. For this reason, your dog MUST be dog-friendly and calm if they stay with us.
Reviews
Ash was terrific! She really looks out for your pet and goes to great lengths to address any issues (my dog was having trouble with itching, so she made sure it wasn’t fleas - she was getting flea preventative treatment - then googled and found that she could rub olive oil on her belly, which helped the itching). Fantastic care!
Ash did a great job and made sure my dog Dottie was safe and comfortable for over a week. Highly recommended.
Ash is wonderful! Kept Sadie in her usual routine, communicated daily with me On how she was doing. Also sent pictures! Could not have found anyone better !
Ash is amazing! I have never trusted anyone besides family to watch my fur babies up until Ash. I know that my dog, Hubert, is in the best care possible when he is with her. She is extremely knowledgeable about dogs and asked all the necessary questions to ensure that she could care for Hubert as best as possible. We love her!!!
About Ash K.
Communication
Skills
Information Ash K. would like to know about your pet
A “meet and greet” is REQUIRED before I care for your furry family member. I am a stranger to them so we need to greet, build a rapport and test if they feel comfortable with me. They deserve a happy, fun experience and this helps ensure it! For Boarding/Day Care only: If your dog is coming to my home, I'll need a copy of their up-to-date immunizations for rabies, bordatella, etc. so we keep all the dog babies healthy! Also, I can't keep aggressive and/or large dogs and/or breeds like pit bulls, dobermans, etc. at my condo. If they are well-behaved, we can discuss me walking it at your home.
A typical day
We have sidewalks and a street with bike lanes to walk in. All walks at my home are on-leash and with a flashlight if in the evening. There are plenty of other dog friends in the neighborhood but we can avoid them if needed.
