Whether your dog is an energetic puppy, a senior needing extra support, or somewhere in between, my goal is always the same: to help them feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely at home while you’re away.

Ashley was great with Olive! Took her on an adventure and made pick up + drop off really easy on us. Thank you!

Ashley was amazing! I don’t think I’ve ever had someone care for my pup the way she did. The attention she gave to my pup was top tier. Even though I was away, I felt like I was still there at the same time — several photos and videos as well! Would 100% rebook.

Ashley is an amazing caretaker. She keeps your pets active and takes them on an adventure. I was super happy with her and she deserves all the flower. Thank you for being so good to Titus. We will be seeing you soon.

Ashley was great! She took excellent care of my very large dog (120 lbs) and was incredibly patient and attentive. When my dog experienced anxiety and wasn't eating, Ashley helped comfort and reassure her. She also kept me updated throughout the stay by sending regular messages, pictures, and videos, which gave me peace of mind while I was away.

Schedule

Pet care is built into my daily routine—not squeezed in around another job. I intentionally structure my schedule around the pets in my care, allowing time for walks, enrichment, rest, photo updates, and consistent one-on-one attention throughout the day.

Safety, trust & environment

Safety always comes first. I carefully follow your care instructions, maintain a calm and secure environment, monitor behavior closely, and provide proactive photo and video updates throughout the stay. My goal is for every pet—and every owner—to feel confident, informed, and at ease.

A typical day

Every stay is tailored to your dog’s normal routine and energy level. Days may include neighborhood walks, enrichment activities, playtime, sniff breaks, rest, affection, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I believe dogs settle best when life feels familiar, balanced, and low stress.

Please let me know about your dog’s routine, medications, allergies, behavioral triggers, mobility concerns, and anything that helps them feel safe and comfortable. The more I know beforehand, the better I can tailor their care and provide a smooth, enjoyable stay.
