Pet care experience

WFH, pet loving, porch, parks!

Hi there! My name is Ashley and growing up, I had my Irish Setter, two English Setters, cat, reptiles and a rabbit! I've been pet sitting for neighbors since I was a kid. Long or short walks, boarding and of course taking care of our own pets. I want my daughter to learn the responsibilities of dog ownership before we adopt a dog of our own. We also participate in the Read to Pets program where we read to animals awaiting adoption. Pets are allowed on my bed and couch, unless you prefer them not to. I always keep the water bowl full and pets happy and healthy. Allow me to meet you and let's play fetch in the park behind our condo! Your pet will get all the extra attention they need. Daycare or overnight, your pet will be part of our family :) I am incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and flexible. Any and all instructions you leave will be followed with care! *New Rover Customers use promo code ASHLEM31979 for $20 off! *Additional fee for Daycare lasting more than 10 hours, pickups before 7am and after 10pm need to be discussed

Took great care of our dog, spent quality time with the dog, walked her frequently, and really got to know her personality to make sure she was comfortable when introducing her to new situations

My pup had a fantastic time with Ashely! She was caring considerate and sent lots of photo updates each day! Camden was so sad to leave at the end of the stay!
