Highlights
Pet care experience
Fur babies are family!! 🥰
I have been around animals my entire life (literally). I have cared for dogs of all sizes, but have primarily owned medium to large dog breeds. Currently we have 2 dogs and 2 cats. We had 3 dogs, but our sweet old lady Angel just recently crossed the rainbow bridge after a happy life of 13 years. One of our dogs is elderly and the other dog is currently in his teenage phase. The cats are young adults. All of our animals are fixed and get along well with each other. I have experience with a wide range of breeds, ages, and sizes. I have provided boarding services in my home, both short-term stays and longer extended stays. We do have a fenced in yard, and a dog door that our dogs and cats can access at all times. Our dogs are kennel trained, but we do not currently kennel them when we are not home. We are a home of animal-lovers and firmly believe that fur babies are not just pets, they are family! Our kids have been around dogs their whole lives and cats for the last few years, and they love cuddling and playing with them all! Thanks for visiting my page, and I hope to hear from you soon!

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced-in yard with pet-friendly turf. The dogs have access to the yard at all times through the dog door. Our animals are fed 2 times per day receiving 1/2 their full daily amount of food in the morning and 1/2 in the evening. If your fur babies are fed on a schedule, that schedule will be kept while in my home. We will ensure dogs don't share other dog's food and that it is picked up as needed so they don't get upset tummies. They always have access to clean water in 2-3 water bowls and a 1.5 gallon pet fountain. Animals are welcome on the furniture in our home and have plenty of beds on the floor for them as well. We are able to set up a kennel (one of ours or yours), can separate animals if needed , and we have gates to ensure dogs have no access to the litter boxes. If watching your pets in your home, I will adhere to any routines and instructions provided by you to ensure your fur babies feel as safe and relaxed as possible while you are away! I will always ensure I spend some time providing some one on one attention to your fur babies by petting, playing, snuggling, and talking to them during my visits so they don't feel lonely or stressed. When taking pets on walks, I will follow all instructions provided by the owners regarding where to walk, for how long, and equipment used (leash, collar, harness, etc.).
Ratings and reviews
We had a great experience with Ashley! She came by over several days to feed and check on our dogs while we were away. She was dependable, trustworthy, and took great care of them. It gave us peace of mind knowing they were being looked after and their routine was being kept while we were gone. We came home to happy, well-cared-for dogs. We would definitely use her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter!
Ashley was amazing! My boys loved her immediately, and she was great about communicating around meet and greet as well as key dropoff at the end. Super grateful to have found her, will 100% want to work with her again!
Ashley took amazing care out a cat Lola! We’re so glad she got to spend time with someone while we were gone and got all the love and care she needed!
Ashley is so great with my girls! She communicates well, is extremely flexible, and gives great updates during her visits. Have booked a few times and will continue to because of how great she is!
Ashley M. cancelled a booking 4 days before it was scheduled to begin.
Ashley was amazing! Great communication, always kept me updated everyday, and her home felt really welcoming. I felt completely at ease knowing my dog was in good hands. Definitely recommend her!

Schedule
I currently work full time and am in the office 3 days per week, Wednesday-Friday. My husband is a massage therapist so his schedule varies, but he works within 10 minutes of the house and comes home between clients when possible. We are both off weekends. For boarding, your fur baby is never left for more than a few hours. For drop-ins, I am typically only able to accommodate morning times before 8am and afternoon times after 5pm during the week due to my work schedule but have more flexibility with my weekend availability.

- Please let me know your dogs experience around cats, other dogs, or kids. I would also like to know about any current medical needs and treatment requirements to ensure their needs are met in my home, dietary requirements and feeding schedule to ensure proper nutrition and minimal disruption to their routine, and any personality traits, typical behavior/temperament, and/or preferences in order to provide a safe and comfortable environment for all animals and humans in the home.
