Pet care experience
Trusted Care for Dogs, Cats & More
I have been pet-sitting and dog walking for my neighbors for several years. I've cared for dogs, cats, and small animals like hamsters. I have a dog of my own who is leash-aggressive, so I am used to handling big, aggressive dogs. I'm experienced in feeding, walking, administering basic care, cleaning up after pets, and providing owners with regular updates.

Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in a client's home, I do my best to keep them on their normal routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and relaxed. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, walks, medications (if needed), playtime, and any special requests. I always make sure pets have fresh water, a clean living space, and plenty of attention based on their individual personalities and needs. Safety is a top priority of mine. I double-check doors, gates, and fences to make sure they're locked and secure. I treat every home with respect by keeping it clean, locking up when I leave, and following any household instructions provided by the owner. I also believe communication is important, so I provide regular updates and photos to help the owner feel confident that their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for while they're away.
Ratings and reviews
Ashley is very responsible, reliable and trustworthy. She has watched my house and all of my pets (3 dogs, 1 cat, fish and chickens) many times. It is difficult to leave my fur babies and to trust others to properly care for them but I trust Ashley completely. She also LOVES animals and it shows in everything she does. My animals get very excited to see her because they love her so much. I highly recommend Ashley.
I've watched my daughter care for animals her entire life, and I can't recommend her enough as a pet sitter. She grew up in a home that always had pets, so caring for animals has always been a natural part of who she is. From dogs and cats to other family pets, she's always been patient, gentle, and attentive to their individual needs. She is responsible, dependable, and truly loves spending time with animals. Whether it's taking dogs on walks, keeping pets on their regular feeding schedule, playing with them, or simply giving them the attention and affection they need while their owners are away, she treats every pet like a member of the family. I would trust her completely with my own pets, and I know anyone who chooses her through Rover can feel confident that their pets will be safe, well cared for, and genuinely loved while they're away.

Schedule
I just graduated high school and am taking a gap year. I am looking to fill that year by being around animals. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I care for my own two cats and dogs daily, and I build my schedule around providing dependable care for the pets I'm responsible for. Since I have a flexible schedule, I'm available for morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend visits, walks, and overnight stays.
