Nurse with a PhD in Pet Sitting!
Pet care experience
I'm a nurse practitioner, currently on a much needed sabbatical from working in health care! I've also been an active pet and house sitter for over 25 years. Since I'm not working a 9-5 right now, I have all the time in the world to spend with your pets as well as the flexibility to care for your pet’s unique needs :) I completed a pre-veterinary curriculum at Cornell University, and many years of clinical nursing experience, so I am comfortable with animals that have medical issues. I have taken care of several pets that required daily medications, including insulin injections. Working with senior animals is also one of my specialties. I am a non-smoker, eat primarily vegetarian, and live an active lifestyle, and I am more than happy to take dogs for extended walks/hikes. I am also an introvert who likes to read and meditate, so I prefer to keep a quiet home environment without many guests. House and pet sitting has been a wonderful experience for me over the years. I can provide several current and reliable references. I look forward to meeting you and your pets!
Reviews
Asher was great with the pups. He came by and did a thorough meet and greet to be sure he was a good fit and understood their environment, food/supplements and needs. Asher gave great updates throughout the week and sent a lot of great photos of the pups on their walks and having play time. I’ve already rebooked him for the my next weekend away. Highly recommend!
Asher is amazing! We felt so comfortable going on vacation knowing Asher was taking care of our dog and home. He was communicative while we were away, keeping us posted on their many adventures. When we came home our dog had clearly been well taken care of! He was relaxed and tired from all the playtime. I know he still misses Asher and all the fun they had. Bonus was our home was so clean and tidy when we got back. It made getting back into town much easier!
Asher is extremely responsible, great communication. My dogs were super happy when we got back from our trip. Highly recommend!
Asher was amazing with our senior guy, Jake! We will definitely be using him again in the future!

I love bringing dogs out for extended walks/hikes, to play fetch, or even go for a swim. I require owner approval for any locations, trails, or activities that are new to their dog(s).
