Availability

Working from home provides me the flexibility to take care of animals more frequently. I can provide several potty breaks throughout the day and give them exercise so they are not cooped up in the house all day. Having a younger dog, this is a daily routine that I am accustomed to. Occasionally the weather prohibits longer playtime outside but we still manage to get a bit of time to run or play ball. At worst, we will play ball or rope inside to wear out some of the energy. If your dog prefers to be a snuggle bug and less energetic, that's fine too!

Safety, trust & environment

I feel my house is ideal for dogs due to the large fenced backyard. In addition, I have a large fenced field behind that so dogs can have a bit more room to run around if needed. My dog can keep he/she company and get exercise together. If in a client home, I can keep a fairly consistent schedule to what the pet is accustomed to. I know what it's like to have a 'particular' schedule for your 4-legged babies, so I'll do my best to keep it the same while you are gone.

Pet care experience

I've been surrounded by animals since I was born. Growing up, my family had various animals including dogs, cats, fish, horses, small mammals & reptiles. For several years in my early teens, I volunteered at Roice-Hurst Humane Society walking dogs, training, and other interactions. I have experience with all stages of life from puppies to seniors. This includes various training, reinforcement, medications, special regimens, etc. I know how important it is to find someone who will treat your dog as their own and ensure they get the proper feeding, exercise, and interaction while gone. I am particular with my dogs and will not just leave them with anyone. Meeting someone to ask questions/chat are extremely beneficial to both parties and I encourage it. I live in my own home with a large fenced yard. I work fulltime from home but have flexibility throughout the day. There will be plenty of bathroom breaks and opportunities for exercise, whether that's playing fetch, enrichment toys, or playing with my dogs in the yard. For other services like drop-in visits and day care, I can provide specific requests within reason. Just let me know details of what you are looking for/needing and I will do what I can! I am fairly flexible and just want the best for your four-legged baby. My purpose/goal is to provide the same care you would. I dread the thought of leaving my dog in a kennel at a facility/shelter/vet for "boarding" so I hope that I can provide relief to another dog-lover like myself.

Ashley is really great with Z, even when he’s pushing some boundaries. She was able to accommodate a second dog, even with pretty short notice. Really great to know that the dogs are in great hands!

Ashley was very good with our 5-month-old rescue puppy on his first pet boarding experience. She sent text updates and videos of him interacting with other dogs and was attentive to his anxiety on the first day. He ended up playing with another puppy and slept through the night both days. Ashley has a great set up for taking care of dogs. I would definitely use her again!

I'm not sure Luna wanted to come home! Ashely was great and both her pups were very sweet...

Z was so excited to see Ashley, Willow, and Stetson again! I love seeing the pictures of the dogs playing, and he comes home so happy and tired!
