Highlights
Pet care experience
Highly experienced and responsible
I am a photographer and animal lover. I studied wildlife biology at UC Santa Cruz, where I got my Bachelors degree. I was also an animal care intern at the Cheyenne Mountain Zoo in 2024. I have been dog sitting for 9 years now. I enjoy taking care of all different sized dogs and energy levels. I have experience taking care of special needs dogs and giving medications. I love all animals and I have experience pet sitting for other animals such as cats, birds, reptiles, rodents, horses, and fish. I love to take dogs on walks and hikes if they are up for it! My boyfriend, Daniel, usually stays with me during house sits. He also has a lot of experience caring for pets. You can meet both of us. Feel free to contact me with any questions.

Safety, trust & environment
I take care of your pets according to owners’ directions. I pretty much always keep dogs on a leash while out walking , for safety.
Ratings and reviews
Came home to a very relaxed and happy little dog. Ashley left our home exactly how we left it, and there were no issues during her stay… it was very cold and snowed during the weekend and we felt safe having her here just in case(never know with these cold snaps) we will absolutely have her back to hang with our snuggly little Frida. Thank you, Ashley! Oh, and she brought in packages and shoveled out front, a nice welcome home on my Birthday.
Ashley did a great job watching our dogs! She provided updates and photos throughout the time we were away.
Ashley does such a great job with our dogs! She always keeps us updated with pictures and communicates well. The house has been well taken care of too!
Ashley was fantastic! We couldn’t have asked for a better person to take care of our house and pup while we were away. She kept us updated on how things were going and we really appreciated how she left the house cleaned up. I know Nike enjoyed the extra walks and attention during the week 🙂
Ashley was great with our two girls! She kept us updated with pictures and even got them out on a hike. The house was clean and our plants were all still alive too. Will definitely use her again!
Ashley did an excellent job watching our two "pups". This is the first time we have been gone for an extended time, and it was reassuring to receive the pictures from Ashley, and arrive home to see that all was well. Ashley even took our one dog for hikes, an unrequested, but much appreciated, bonus!

Schedule
I am currently on a summer break from work, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pup and give them lots of attention.
- Cats0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbs41 to 100 lbsover 101 lbsAshley can host up to 1 pet per night
- I would like to know if your dog has any medical issues, so I can handle them accordingly. I would also like to know if there are any behaviors that make your dog uncomfortable or reactive, such as approaching other dogs. And I would like to know which activities your dogs like, so they can have an enjoyable time while you are gone!
