Hello~ I'm Ashley, your new personal Pet Care Extraordinaire! Please allow me to provide you with house sitting, walking, day care, drop in's or overnight stays in my home, as well as training or any additional services you or your precious loved one(s) may be looking for! I've got a lot of experience working with animals, and assisting families with their pet care needs! My qualifications: I'm an Animal enthusiast with a Degree in Canine Behavior & Psychology and Graduate level training in Canine Behavior Modification techniques. In addition to being a Canine Behavioral specialist, I'm a Navy spouse who enjoys cooking, nature hikes, reading about personal growth & nutrition, stargazing, creating jewelry & embroidery, and most of all: taking care of your pet! For the last 12 years, I've provided boarding, house sitting, daily walks and daycare for dogs in 4 states. I love taking care of Dogs of all sizes, ages and breeds. If your dog is naturally chilled out, isn't fazed about you leaving them in my care, then that's great! If that's not the case with your pup, then don't fret. There is hope! My degree and experience have led me to find my niche - helping dogs that have anxiety, special needs and behavioral concerns, as well as those who don't! I've learned to soothe pets nerves, cater to special diets and provide basic Dog behavior analysis in order to help determine any possible causes for the issues you're facing. I'm ready to take on any challenge, and I'm confident that my experienced skill set will help your pet remain at ease while you're gone. My main objective is to cherish each furry family member(s) while creating a safe, dynamic and fun space for them to be both stimulated and feel calm. While in my care, your Dog will be engaged in play and treat time. In addition, I like to provide grooming and/or gentle massage. I always make sure to provide each Dog with the respect they deserve, especially as they adjust to me and any new environment. It is my passion to offer holistic care to your beloved pet. My heart and soul are dedicated to the optimum wellness, healing, diet, therapeutic care and overall state of mind of your fur-baby. I'd be happy to send you pictures of your pet, along with updates about their activities while they're with me. It can be so joyful to see your loved one relaxing, hear about them napping or peeking at a pic of them as they are happily at play. ***If you'd like to see my home on a meet and greet before booking a service, it is always available for you to have a tour, or if you prefer, I can send photos instead. __________ My Pet: I am the proud Dog-Mom of a medium sized Jack Russell/ Chihuahua named Sammy Davis Jr. Sam is my emotional support animal and he's truly amazing. He is a huge source of Love and Joy in my life and he's trained to do 10 different behaviors. Sam interacts positively with adults, kids and with other Dogs. __________ I truly believe we should always stay 'pawsitive', while spreading compassion, love and light. If you choose me add your new Pet Carer, It would be my pleasure to meet you and your pet! Hope to hear from you soon!
