Avid dog lover in Swarthmore!
Pet care experience
Before allowing me to get my first dog, my parents had me read an entire dog encyclopedia to determine the best fit for our family. I've professionally shown my two Basenji's for almost 6 years and spent my whole childhood begging my parents for more pets. I love animals, dog training, and going for long walks or runs with my pups. I'm a current Swarthmore college student and I have great dog handling skills and am very clean and respectful.
Reviews
Ashlen is a very responsible and compassionate person. She’s shown nothing but patience and love for my golden and maltipoo. Ashlen has done an amazing job at providing the needs of my boys and has built a very strong bond with them. She’s been great at keeping us in the loop and updated, and is exceptional at communication. There is no one else I trust more in caring for my boys. Our experience thus far has been positive and has exceeded our expectations.
Ashlen has walked and dog sat our dog (as well as two cats) for years and she generally seems to truly love all furry animals. She is a very kind, loving, patient, and yet firm, dog handler. She understands animal behavior very well and has even had experience training and handling challenging breeds. Dogs behave well for her and feel secure with her because she maintains confident control. Our dog has gotten all the love, attention and professional level care she deserves from Ashlen. We also have always completely trusted her in our home with our pets when we were away for the weekend. She is very a very honest and trustworthy young woman, who we wholeheartedly refer.
Ashlen would be an excellent dog sitter; she is a confirmed dog lover. She has owned and shown dogs and is well-read on a variety of breeds. She cares for all dogs, and has loved and cared for my dogs often. I think anyone who chooses Ashlen to pet sit is doing their dog a great service. Any dog she watches will be lovingly cared for and their needs carefully attended to in all situations.
I am very experienced in pet care by interning with a vet hospital for 2 years, so I feel that my evaluation of Ashlen's appropriateness for the position of a dog caregiver comes with some extra insight. Her ability to read dog body language is amazing. She knows how to physically communicate with dogs to both ensure that she is coming off as caring, and the ensure that the dog feels safe. She is such a loving and responsible person. Everything she does is thoroughly thought out and she thinks of every possible outcome. I think her skills makeup a person that I would trust any dog with. She can provide and dog with proper care for health and safely while also being interactive and fun.
