Safety, trust & environment

I no longer have a pet in my home but I do try to follow any rules others may have. I spent over a year with a dog and raised it from a puppy. So, I learned the ins and outs of what to do and what the owner liked. I tend to leave the house exactly as it was when I arrived.

Information Ashley L. would like to know about your pet

The temperament is important to know and what to expect when approaching the dog. Some dogs just want to spend time getting attention while others just need the freedom to stretch a bit. I take my time slowly working my way to the dog to test how they react to a stranger (in a friendly voice) and go from there.

A typical day

It depends on what the pet is comfortable with. For the younger dogs, I will take the time to train it when it comes to basic commands but make it fun at the same time. Bathroom breaks are always necessary first if the pet has been alone for quite some time and then I’ll focus on play or any other activities.

Your Pet’s New Bestfriend

Pet care experience

I have taken care of animals my entire life. I have had a dog of my own who had recently passed - so I understand their needs at any age. I’ve always been quite the magnet for attracting animals and I love to spend time with them. I think this is the perfect opportunity for someone like myself. I work a government job during the week with a flexible schedule. This works well for customers who may need a check-in on their pet(s) every 3-4 hours. I most definitely will pass a background check as I’m continuously checked for my job. Sometimes animals just need human contact to ease any anxiety that they may have. I’m open to various forms of care that you may need. I do have experience with cats as well.

Ashley is an absolute joy! Easy to work with, detailed in prep and action and so conscientious. She treated our cats like they were her own…they adore her. It was as if we were never gone-no interruption in their normal schedules. We are booked again for later this year. Thanks, Ashley!!!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
