Safety, trust & environment

Here’s what a stay with me looks like: · Fun & Exercise: We'll go on long, energizing walks to burn off that extra zoomies! Plus, our community has two private dog parks for safe off-leash play, fetch, and socialization (if that's something they enjoy). · Cleanliness & Comfort: After every walk, I'll wipe and clean your dog's paws so they come back into a clean home. While they'll be treated like family, for everyone's comfort and hygiene, dogs are not allowed on the furniture or beds. They will have their own dedicated sleeping space. · Basic Training Reinforcement: I happily reinforce basic commands like "sit" and "stay" throughout the day, incorporating a little brain work into their fun. · Structured Routine: I'll stick to your dog's normal feeding schedule to provide consistency and avoid stomach upset. What I Require from You: To make your dog's stay as smooth as possible, please provide: · Their regular Food & Treats (to prevent dietary issues) · Their Food/Water Bowls · Their Bed, Sleeping Pad, or Crate (whatever they are used to for a good night's sleep) · Toys are optional, but I have plenty to share!

Information Ash K. would like to know about your pet

Health & Diet: Any allergies or medical conditions I need to be aware of. · Temperament: Your dog's general behavior around other dogs and people (e.g., are they shy, playful, or do they have any triggers?). · Training Cues: The specific words and hand signals you use for commands like "sit," "stay," and "come." This helps me maintain consistency.

A typical day

For the High-Energy & Athletic Pups: · Active Adventures: For bigger or more athletic dogs, I love to take them for rollerblading or running sessions (only with your prior permission and if they are comfortable on a leash). This is a fantastic way to burn off serious energy! · Classic Fetch: We'll make great use of the two dog parks in my complex for intense games of fetch and sprinting. For All Dogs: · Long, Exploratory Walks: We'll explore the neighborhood with plenty of time to sniff all the interesting smells—a key part of a dog's mental well-being. · Brain Games: I incorporate basic training and "focus" commands into our play. This mental workout is just as tiring as physical exercise and helps reinforce their good manners. By combining physical exertion with mental challenges, I ensure your dog returns to you happily drained and content.

This was an unforgettable experience that I encountered but Tya experienced. Ash was very attentive, knowledgeable and overjoyed to care for Tya. That brought me comfort in knowing it was the right choice. I highly recommend Ash for sitting or boarding, it’s a choice you won’t regret!

Ash is an AMAZING sitter! The second I dropped my girl off I knew should would be ok. He is kind, responsive, communicative, and clearly loves each dog as if it is his own. Thanks to Ash, I was able to enjoy a little vacation without worrying one second about my little girl. 10/10 will hire again!

Ash was wonderful with our dog! He kindly accommodated a last minute booking due to a family emergency. We received frequent updates with photos and videos about eating, walks, and potty habits. Our dog was happy, well cared for and enjoyed his time with Ash. Highly recommend!

Ash did a fantastic job taking care of my pet Mia! He was incredibly attentive and made sure I felt at ease by sending regular updates and videos throughout Mia’s stay. It was clear that Mia was happy, comfortable, and genuinely enjoyed her time with Ash. I truly appreciate the care and love he provided. Highly recommended!
