Pet care experience
I currently work at Cornell and Colonial Animal Hospital. I am a chemical lab tech and a vet tech assistant. I am cat mom of 3 senior cats, 2 younger cats and 3 young huskies. I love all animals as if they're my own. I have been involved with animals all my life and have medical experience for last 18 years. I have degrees in veterinary technology and biology. Your pet will feel loved when it's in my care so that gives you less worry and you can enjoy your destination/work day. I will provide updates as you need and provide photos while your pet is in my care. I also offer nail trimming services too. Whatever your pet may need I will be there. Easily I am flexible so I adjust my schedule to your pets' needs. If your pet needs to get up early I do too. Whatever your pet needs I adapt. I make sure the pet is safe at all times. When walking I make sure to not let the pet interact with other pets in case they or the other pet is not as cautious

Ashley was very helpful for our last minute trip same day to take our Leo. Much appreciated.
Thank you for keeping our sweet dog over the holidays. We felt very comfortable with your communication and willingness to accommodate for our pup’s needs. Thanks for the peace of mind and for all the care you provided:)
Our bichon puppy is always excited to see Ashley and her children :)

I have a 20 x 20 fenced in enclosure in my yard. My dogs have an electric fence they can run on. I have atleast 6 baby gates in my house. There is as a deck for your pet sun bath on if that is their favorite pastime. I do have a ramp for the older pets who have trouble walking as well as a finished basement that is one level.
