Your go-to local dog sitter 🐾
Pet care experience
Hi there - I’m Ashley, your local dog walker and sitter! With a heart full of love for furry friends, I ensure every dog feels like a VIP (Very Important Pup) under my care. Whatever your pet’s needs are, my goal is to make every walk and stay as fun and comforting as a belly full of treats. Rest easy knowing that your dog is having a paw-some vacation of their own!
Reviews
Ashley was fantastic at communicating and caring for our pup as if she were her own. Our dog had a great time playing and felt at home during our weekend trip away from her. I would rebook Ashley in a heartbeat!
Ashley took excellent care of Luna! I will use her again.
My first dog walker experience with Ashley was amazing and smooth. She noted all the details and took many pictures during the walking. I'm grateful for her help!
Ashley has a nice spacious house with a fenced backyard. Her dog is friendly. She asked several questions about our dog’s interests, habits, routine, likes/dislikes, vet information etc. Ashley maintained adequate communication throughout the stay. This was our first experience with Ashley. We have no hesitation requesting her services in the future again and recommend others to engage her services.
About Ashley K.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
While my personal pet parenting style is relaxed, I always prioritize the individual needs and routines of each pet I care for. I fully respect and follow any rules, schedules, or care preferences you provide. When boarding in my home, please note that I live with my parents—we're a family of animal lovers! Our home has a large, fenced-in yard that offers plenty of space for safe play. There's also a shaded dog park just a 5-minute drive (or 15-minute walk) away for extra exercise and socialization, if permitted. I have one dog of my own—Cannoli, a 6.5-year-old doodle—who does best with small to medium-small dogs that have calm temperaments. For safety and comfort, a meet-and-greet is required before confirming any boarding arrangements. Cannoli is allowed to roam the house freely and relax on furniture, and I extend the same treatment to dogs in my care—unless you prefer otherwise. Our household is easygoing and pet-friendly, but I always tailor my care to match your pet's specific needs and routine. Your fur baby’s comfort, safety, and happiness are my top priorities!
Home
Information Ashley K. would like to know about your pet
It’s helpful to know your pet’s general temperament, energy level, and any quirks or triggers (like reactivity to other dogs or fear of loud noises). As well, let me know their daily routine and preferred potty/walk schedule so I can help maintain their sense of routine and familiarity. Please share any medical needs, allergies, or mobility issues as well. The more I know, the better I can keep your pup happy and safe!
A typical day
A typical day for me and my dog Cannoli starts with a morning walk. We take breaks throughout the day for some playtime and cuddles (fenced in backyard). In the evenings, we mix it up! Sometimes it's a longer walk, a trip to the dog park, or just relaxing together on the couch. On weekends, we like to get out more - parks, lake time, hiking, visiting family, or set up a playdate with his best friend, Loki!

Availability
I work full time remotely with a flexible schedule. If preferred, (as long as there's WiFi) I’m happy to work from your home - ensuring plenty of playtime, potty breaks, and companionship. For walking or feeding needs (outside of in-home stays), late mornings work best, with greater flexibility in the afternoons and evenings. I also have a car, making it easy to get to and from the home. I do have times in the day that I am unavailable. These will be updated weekly. Mon-Fri: 11:30-12pm Thursdays: 2-2:30 If any scheduling conflicts arise, I communicate openly and provide as much advance notice as possible. I’m committed to providing consistent, dependable care that fits your pet’s routine and needs!
