Information Ashley M. would like to know about your pet

What does a typical day look like for you and your pup? When does she eat? How much exercise does he need? Does your pet have any food allergies, medications, or health concerns? Is your dog used to dog parks? Does he enjoy them? Is there anything I should know about her social habits?

A typical day

I’ll be the primary caregiver and will spend lots of quality time with your dog! We’ll go for numerous walks, play in the backyard, and visit the dog park if they're okay with other dogs. We’ll also play in my house, and have lots of cuddles. Meal times and bedtimes will be based on your usual routine, which will help make the transition to and from the stay effortless and simple for your pup.

Pets

Lover of all dogs

Pet care experience

I’ve always been an animal lover. I grew up with dogs: German Shepherds, Golden Retrievers, Labs, and Dachshunds. Being observant and responding quickly and naturally to a dog’s body language has served me well. I’m able to read their behavior and learn their habits, which helps them get comfortable around me and know I’m someone they can trust. I’m eager to share my life with pups in need of a supportive, caring environment while their parents are away. I’m flexible, prompt, and highly communicative. More importantly, your dog’s wellbeing is my top priority. I know that owners can get busy, so every stay with me entails all the cuddles, treats, and playtime your pup desires! It’s a win-win-win situation, and you’ll get lots of photos and texts so you can take a peek at what we’re up to. You have nothing to worry about while your dog is in my care, so you and your pup both get a great vacation. I work with small to large size dogs, and can host more than one at a time. I also have experience administering medication. I have a very sweet dog named Haddie, a golden doodle, along with a cat, Cinder. When we do our meet-and-greet, Haddie, Cinder and I will get to know your dog, and you and I can go over anything and everything that’s relevant to ensuring a successful stay!
