Pet care experience
I have grown up with dogs, and am accustomed to big dogs (German Shepards and Akitas). I have been pet sitting for friends and family for a few years, and I've taken those dogs on various hikes, long walks, and even runs (if they are 1.5 years and above, for safety). I've taken care of puppies, and used to foster kittens as well. I have experience with clicker training and can provide your dog with lots of exercise and play.
Reviews
I've never actually met Ashlee but twice I've used her when we were kept out of town and couldn't get back to our kitty's. She did great! Glad I put my trust in her.
I contacted Ashlee last minute to take out my dog after finding out I would be working a long night. She had no hesitation to take her for a walk and make sure she was taken care despite needing a 2 days notice. Very communicative, kind, and helpful:)
I don’t have enough words to express my gratitude for Ashlee!!!!! She took such great care of my kitties and fed my birds and there is no feeling better than knowing that they were being cared for just like I would!!! That peace of mind is HUGE!!!!! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!
We were fortunate to find Ashlee who took very good care of our ten month old golden doodle. Ashley watched "Billy for a week. She took great care of him including taking him on runs and pretty much loving on him. I was scared Billy wouldn't want to come home! Anyway, Ashlee was great and we are hoping she is available next time we travel. Craig and Susie Anderson

Safety, trust & environment
I live in a condo, with a gated patio, but when I'm dog sitting, I take the dogs out for nice long walks around the neighborhood, or a nice lake with a trail near by. We have one cat, but when we've boarded animals in the past, he stays in the basement (we have a gate), so your fur baby has a safe atmosphere to roam around in.
Home
Information Ashlee K. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any special needs or behaviors. I want to make sure your fur baby gets the best care around. Please let me know if they like to chew anything specific (shoes, furniture, socks, etc) or if they are or are not house trained. It's also important for me to know if they dislike other dogs or specific types of people or cars, especially if I am taking them on walks and runs in public settings, so everyone is safe and happy.
A typical day
I really love taking dogs on walks, hikes and runs (depending on if the owner would like that service) around a local park with a lake, or in different open spaces (stratton and red rock), as well as other local parks. I like to mix it up, but I love using alltrails to find fun new hiking spots that are dog friendly and nearby.

Availability
I work from home so I have lots of free time and need to walk myself anyway, so I thought why not walk a dog while I'm doing it. When sitting or walking dogs, I usually take them out once in the morning for a small walk, once in the afternoon for a long walk, and once at night for a shorter walk, with potty brakes as needed through the day. My schedule is very open and accommodating depending on what you and your pet need. I work from my laptop, so I can be in house, take them to my house, or stop by for a walk.
