Enriching quality time
Pet care experience
Hi, I’m Ash! I am super passionate about creating fun and engaging adventures for your pups! I believe in making time spent with your dogs positive and enriching. I especially enjoy working on leash manners, impulse control, and reactivity. I have a soft spot for the shy, sensitive dogs who need extra time and patience. I also LOVE creating positive socialization experiences for young puppies. During your pup’s time with me, they will be fulfilled mentally and physically. I have 5 years experience working directly with dogs in force-free training and behavior. I have also been a licensed and practicing Certified Veterinary Technician for 9 years. I can help with any in-home medical and/or grooming needs. Your pet’s health and well-being will be closely monitored while they’re with me.

Ash is so amazing! It looked like Baloo had suchh an amazing time! She made sure Baloo got to come with her and her dogs on a bunch of awesome excursions! My little pup still needs to get used to busy places and loud noises, so Ash made a point to take him to a variety of places with her dogs to get him used to being around that, as well as learning how to focus in a hectic situation. He had such a fantastic weekend, I’m sure he’ll be sleeping it off the rest of the week! She also kept me updated with pictures and videos throughout the weekend! It was so nice to see how he was doing and to get little snippets of all the fun he was having! Thank you so much Ash, can’t even express how thankful!!!
Ash is AMAZING!! We hired her to care for our golden who has a few medical conditions. She was referred to us as she is a licensed vet technician and we wanted the best for our pet. Ash is very patient and gives our dog lots of attention. We can gauge his experience by the way he responds to her whenever he sees her! Ash has a tremendous compassion for animals and she will always be our first choice for pet care.
Ash is a compassionate and caring animal lover! My dog Ollie can be reactive, especially with other dogs and strangers, and she was very patient with him and able to earn his trust. Not an easy feat! Over the time she has spent caring for him, he has become more comfortable on his walks and has improved interactions with strangers. There is has been multiple time when Ash has walked and watched Ollie. Every time he comes home he is a happy and sleepy puppy. Wouldn’t think of having any other person watch my little guy:) I know with her knowledge of veterinary medicine, animal behavior and dog training he is in safe and amazing hands. Couldn’t recommend her more!
Ash is a rock solid individual with a great heart and a contagious smile. My dog Ladd goes crazy when she arrives! Ash has a background in emergency vet care and pet psychology. She was recommended to me by a friend who has a fearful pet and handles her dog with grace. She is punctual, energetic, organized and thorough. While I am away, she keeps me updated and informed on my dog throughout the day. Very experienced and wonderful with animals. Highly recommend!

Information Ash L. would like to know about your pet
I’d like to be aware of any fears, triggers, and aggression issues. I need to know about any medical conditions such as allergies and exercise restrictions. I love all breeds! But I am partial to herding breeds ;)
A typical day
We will go for walks around our neighborhood, trips to local parks, hiking adventures, and sniffaris. We will build confidence with games and activities. We can also have lots of playtime with my dogs only IF your dog wants another dog pal. We have lots of room to run! We live on a fully fenced 0.25 acre lot.
