Ashley is very good with animals. I have known her for many years. In recent years she has watched my Doberman for me and he was a 1 year old bundle of energy. I was shocked how well she managed him and had a good time. He is very intelligent and socially demanding but a sweet animal, he is difficult to understand compared to most dogs and she learned his personality quickly. I loved receiving pictures and videos of him while I was away. That’s something I never get if he has to be boarded at a vet’s office. I have seen her nurse chicks and kittens back to health after losing their mother and take in elderly cats to get them appropriate veterinary care. I say all of this to say that she loves animals and is very good with cats, dogs, and chickens. She’s had experience with family pets growing up and as an adult she has 2 very different dogs and an indoor/outdoor cat. She has more patience than I do in all aspects of life and that’s one of the things I admire about her. She’s also punctual and a super hard worker!
