Responsible and Caring Dog Lover

Pet care experience

My mom always says "trust can only be earned". I live by that motto and work hard to make sure my actions earn other's trust and confidence. I know leaving your furry family member in someone else's care can be nerve wracking. With respect to my human friends, I will make sure to fully understand your pet’s needs and routine so that they are getting the same loving care you provide when you are home. On overnight visits I will send plenty of updates and pictures so you don't miss them when you are away. I will of course be respectful of your home and privacy and strictly follow any rules or guidelines you may have for taking care of your dog. I have had dogs my entire life! Some tiny (Maltese) and some larger (Australian Shepherd). They are simply part of the family. Right now my sister and I have one dog. I am her Aunt Ashley. I have had 20 years of life experience in pet care. In fact, there has never been a time in my life where I didn't live with and help care for a dog. In additional to caring for my own animals, throughout the years I have always been the designated pet sitter for friends and family heading out of town whether it was for a weekend away or several weeks when friends were moving states and needed time to get set up. My current pride and joy is Ginger - my rescue dog I share with my sister. I graduated from ASU undergrad and UofA law school. I recently left my firm job to move to Seattle with my sister and help grow my family's start-up company. I work from my home office so my hours are very flexible and your pup will get plenty of love and attention. I am extremely responsible, caring, and understand that each owner has different preferences for their dog's care (e.g., treats, food, allowed on furniture, etc). I would love to work for you and your beloved dogs! (Please note, in case you are looking for a stay longer than a week, I also work two days a week at a restaurant from 5:00-11:00. I can give you details when we chat.)

Ashley's great with our mama's girl pup, communicative with me while we're away, and tidy in our home. Couldn't be happier.

Ashley was a great sitter for Bucky! She sent us lots of updates and pictures, and I always felt like Bucky was in good hands. This was Bucky's first time staying away from us and she seemed comfortable and relaxed with Ashley the entire trip. We returned to the house exactly as we left it and a happy and healthy dog. Would certainly book with Ashley again!

Ashley is an amazing dog sitter! She was really great at treating my dog/house as her own for a few days. She was very responsible including confirming the day ahead of our trip, throughly cleaning the puppy pad, taking out the garbage (and replacing the bag!). She also sent update texts/pictures/calls throughout the stay so I knew Yuki was having a great time.

I met Ashley in 2009 - we went to the same law school. I would highly recommend Ashley. You won't be able to find a more caring and responsible person. I have seen her in all types of different settings and whether she was working at the law firm on a case or taking her 6 and 3 year old nieces on a weekend trip to see their grandma in another state, she is always organized and makes sure that everything goes smoothly. She is great with animals and kids and genuinely loves caring for them. I promise you will love working with her.

Information Ashley G. would like to know about your pet

I don't have any policies around meet and greets. I am happy to do what the owner thinks is best for their dog to feel comfortable (meeting in public or meeting at their home). I don't have any breed preferences. I love all breeds and all ages of dogs! There are a few things I would want to know. For example, what is their general routine, what they like and what they don't like, if they are comfortable around other dogs at the dog park/street, if they are comfortable around strangers in public trying to pet them, do they have any favorite toys, are they allowed to have treats.

A typical day

If I am staying with the pup for a few days, for general walks throughout the day we will probably cruise around the neighborhood. For longer walks we can either cruise around the neighborhood or head to somewhere scenic. From where I live I typically head to the Seattle Center or one of the parks in our neighborhood. I don’t have a car so I generally walk everywhere. Depending on where you live I will map fun places to walk, and if your dog has any preferred routes please let me know! I am very cautious and will make sure all outings or walks are safe (I NEVER EVER leave dogs leashed up outside any establishment. I always like to use both a harness and a leash unless otherwise instructed by the owner or if we are at an enclosed off leash dog park). Although safety for your animal is very important to me, so is making sure they are comfortable and having fun while in my care. I love playing with dogs, giving tummy rubs, and making sure they have a nice walk to break up their day!
