Experienced dog handler!
Pet care experience
When I was living in Austin, I worked as a dog counselor at Austin Pet's Alive - the no-kill shelter that has helped transform Austin into a no-kill city! Because of our no-kill status, I worked with dogs of all sizes (3 lbs to 180 lbs), ages (puppy to hospice care), and with all kinds of behavior on a daily basis, so I have plenty of experience with and know how to responsibly manage: on leash reactivity, resource guarding, territorial behavior, handler protectiveness, door darters, highly stressed out/anxious dogs, separation anxiety, dog aggressiveness, overarousal, breaking up dog fights, etc. I also have experience caring for dogs with special medical needs - incontinence, paralysis, diabetes, parvo puppies etc - so rest assured I can administer any medical treatments for your dog if need be! I get COVID tested on a weekly basis. Happy to answer more questions if you have them!
Reviews
Ash is a wonderful dog sitter! She is super communicative—she always lets me know how my dog is feeling/acting each visit, and I love the pictures and updates she sends. She’s flexible and able to work with my schedule, and she always goes the extra mile. She was willing to meet up with me before her visits started to meet me (and my dog), and she even brought in my mail when I got a package! I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a new walker/sitter.
Ashleigh has been a joy and a help with my pooch. Her experience with animals is impressive and the updates I receiced from her walks with my dog put me to ease! Definitely lucked out with her.
It was so nice knowing that I had someone so dependable to stay with my 2 girls on Christmas. Ash took great care of them and I look forward to using her in the future. She also sent me pics, which I love to get when I am away. :)
I was so nervous about leaving my little Olive Rue and JJ over Christmas. Ash put me at ease by coming to the house beforehand and ensuring that I felt comfortable. She is friendly and works with animals all day long already so has tons of experience. I would recommend her very much!

Any parks and trails! I will not let your dog off leash and will only bring your dog to an off leash area after getting to know your dog & with your approval! I also do NOT do group walks with other people's dogs - from my experience at the dog shelter, that can be very dangerous - so you know that your pup(s) will have my undivided attention.
