A Lab soul trapped in a human body

Pet care experience

Hey! As my headline says, I'm basically a human version of a Labrador puppy (or, any puppy in general, so I would be as crazy/excited as your pup while playing fetch haha). I graduated from SDSU (major: zoology) where I also worked at two animal behavior research labs. Currently I work at the Safari Park so I'll do my best to move my work schedule around to fit the stay. Over the years, I have worked with numerous animals including horses, snakes, crocodiles, spiders, and birds. I have also been a part of an animal rescue team for almost 6 years now. Dogs have always been an integral part of my life. I've been training dogs for almost 3 years now and I've also helped numerous stray dogs find a permanent home. Personal info aside, I will try my best to make my schedule as flexible as possible. My apartment is pretty big, and the building itself is about a 10 min walk from a park, which would make walking/playing super fun. All dogs seem to like/trust me almost immediately (lucky me) so you could be absolutely stress-free when leaving your cute little fluff-balls with me. I could even brush them or give them a bath as per the owner's request. There's obviously gonna be lots of cuddling. I'll keep the owner updated frequently by sending pictures.

Ashana was absolutely amazing! She watched my dog Finnegan and he was so comfortable with her, she treated him as her own, playing with him, taking him on walks, and even cuddling with him on the couch ? She kept me up to date with daily check ins with pictures + videos multiple times a day which was great! I would definitely reach out to book with Ashana again if I ever need a sitter again ?

Ashana was amazing with Ahi while we were gone for the weekend. She sent us pictures and videos and made sure to get to know him. I would recommend her to anyone. Thanks for taking care of our crazy, sweet, giant puppy!!

Information Ashana S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know in advance how trained (basic commands and crate training) your pup is. Since I'll also be working a job (flexible schedule) but it would be nice to know how long would the pup be able to be home by themselves.

A typical day

I'm always very attentive to the dogs and try to maintain their normal routines so they would be less nervous in an entirely new environment. I also love to take the pups to parks to play fetch or just run around with to get their energy out haha.

I accepted a position at the safari park very recently so I really don't have a fixed schedule yet. But it seems very flexible so I definitely do my best to move my work schedule around.
