TheEnergetic, Animal-Loving Student

Pet care experience

Hello! I’ve been surrounded by animals from the moment I was born and I’ve loved them since. I’ve hand-raised puppies and kittens in my home for my local SPCA as well as family and friends alike, cared for senior, disabled and sick pups and have loved and been loved by the smallest of cats to the largest breeds of dog and all sizes and temperaments of pets in between. More specifically, I’ve owned a papillon mix and a corgi mix (who lived to over 15 years!) and cared for lab mixes, German Shepherd mixes, rat terriers and pitties. As for the kitties, I’ve won over many a domestic shorthair from the shyest of indoor-outdoor cats to the most affectionate of pampered felines, even hand-raising day-old kittens into loving cats. I moved to Boston recently to study at Boston University. I love to walk and explore the city and Boston has treated me very well so far! I think I’ve memorized the city already! However, because of campus housing I can no longer have a pet of my own. I consider it a privilege to be able to work with your pets through rain, snow or shine and have spent much of my life making sure that all animals have the care, love, exercise and quality of life they deserve and that includes yours. I know that the rigors of life can make it hard to always keep up with the responsibilities of having a pet but please be assured that I’m here to help. Your furry family is safe and happy in my hands.

Ashini is simply the best. She’s very professional but very kind and warm. She has totally helped us feel at ease when we have to be away. Thank you Ashini!

Ashini took care of our two cats while we were away for 8 days. The two cats are at very different life stages, and Ashini was very sensitive to their particular needs and personalities. Ashini is very conscientious and lovely person to work with! Highly recommend booking her!

Ashini, as always, was super helpful, responsive, kind, and thorough with her Rover card! I feel at peace knowing she is checking in on my cat. I will definitely be rebooking Ashini!

Information Ashini B. would like to know about your pet

It would be nice to know a few things about your dog if it’s possible so both your furry family and I can have the best time: 1. Aggression issues or food guarding. 2.Medical issues, allergies and medications 3.Treats! Is your doggie a picky eater? On a special diet or can only have a certain type of treat instead of ones I may have? Let me know and I’ll be happy to accommodate. 4. Any ways your “fur baby”does or does not like to be pet or handled. 5. Reactivities and fears so I can be proactive in avoiding the trigger or comforting your pup! No breed preferences.

A typical day

I love taking walks or even jogs along the esplanade and the dogs seem to enjoy it just as much! You can expect a lot of cuddles as a given. With your permission and if you and your dog are comfortable with it I’m only a mile away from the fenced Tudor dog park and even closer to Amory playground (however this park isn’t fenced so I’ll only take a dog off-leash here with owners permission if I know that there is NO flight risk. Tug of war is always fun for those dogs that can’t be off-leash. And all the while we’ll be enjoying the all the new sights and smells of the city.
