Highlights
Pet care experience
Vet Assistant Providing Expert Care
I'm a lifelong animal lover and have been a full-time dog walker and pet sitter since 2008. As a veterinary assistant and the owner and foster mom of many rescue animals, I've developed a deep understanding of pets' physical, mental, and emotional needs. I'm also a GoodPup Certified Dog Trainer, specializing in positive reinforcement training methods. My passion is creating personalized care plans that cater to each pet's unique requirements, so they feel safe, happy, and loved. Specialties: - Enrichment: I'm dedicated to incorporating enrichment activities into all the pet care services I provide. This includes things like food puzzles, training, long-leash exploratory walks, scent games, and more, tailored to each pet's unique needs and personality. - Fearful and reactive dog care: I'm experienced in handling dogs with fear, anxiety, or reactivity issues. I use gentle, reward-based methods to build your dog’s trust and confidence. - Medical pet care: As a veterinary assistant, I’m experienced and comfortable caring for pets with medical needs and skilled in administering all types of pet medications, including pills, liquids, topical medications, insulin, and sub-Q fluids.

Safety, trust & environment
I strive to go above and beyond to ensure your pet feels loved, comforted, and cared for. I provide regular updates and photos, so you can stay connected to your pet while you're away. For your peace of mind, I maintain comprehensive commercial pet care insurance through Pet Care Insurance. This provides significantly more coverage than the Rover Guarantee, including liability protection, enhanced coverage for pets in my care, and protection for your property.
Ratings and reviews
Ashley is super professional and a great communicator about the pets while we are away!
Ashley waked my dog for two weeks. She shared photos, walking paths, checkin and out times. Ripley was exhausted every day when I got home from work. Definitely plan to use her again and will recommend to others! She was great!
Ashley has been great with Siri and we look forward to her continued help!
Ashley did a great job watching my cats while I was away. She followed the directions closely and took extra time to play with them before leaving. She was a very attentive pet sitter.
Ashley is amazing and handles Cesar perfectly. Thank you so much Ashley!
This is my first time using Rover and Ashley has been fantastic to work with. We have a young puppy and a shy adult dog and we need weekly visits. Ashley has been helpful and supportive working out a schedule, knowing it will evolve as the puppy gets older. She's responsive, flexible, and has given us good ideas on how these visits can meet the needs of both dogs and keep them happy and comfortable.
