Pet care experience
I love all kinds of animals. I have experience caring for different dog breeds from birth to senior. I was 12 when I was responsible, here and there, for feeding, walking and keeping my uncles Shih tzu, Rosco, company when the family was gone. At 19 years old, I was left in charge of my sisters puggle while she went away to the army. At 20, I became a pet parent to a beautiful blue nose Pitbull named Brooklyn, who I lost after 12 years on this earth in August 2021. I helped her birth 2 litters of 9 puppies during her lifetime, feeding, playing, bathing and all the good stuff until they found their forever homes. I have also provided senior care for her which included administering pain medication and wound care for an oral tumor before she spread her wings. I have also owned a bulldog which I had to provide nebulizer treatments for a short trachea. I have owned a Maltipoo and two blue nose Pitbull puppies that I had to sadly give away for personal reasons. I puppy sit my sister’s German Sherprador mix, Koda, from time to time. And I currently have a 2 year old old Miniature Australian Shepherd, Leo, who is my world and I am training him to be a good puppy citizen through Petco’s S.T.A.R. AKC training program! I work a hybrid job with Wednesdays being the only day I work in my office. Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Fridays, I have free time to play with Leo during my 2, 15 minute breaks and lunch hour as well as after work once I pick up the kids from their Afterschool activities. On weekends, I usually have a lot of free time and so, I often go to dog parks with Leo & my 3 kids. 3 kids + 1 dog = tons of energy burned! My pup, Leo is very playful and energetic, he can provide company and lots of play if you have an energetic pup or dog. I also find that Leo is somewhat adaptive, if we are home being lazy bugs all day, he will also be a lazy bug, cuddling and snoozing all day. So if you have a pup that likes to just lay around or has low energy, I’m sure Leo can adapt and cuddle up and lay around with them all day. I have a playpen that expands for small to large sized dogs, as well as a crate for medium sized dogs if needed. You can say my apartment is puppy proof as I don’t have much that a pup can get into or be mischievous with or knock down, it’s the perfect home to host your pup with tons of space to run around and just be dogs. I will also keep you updated throughout the day and send photos throughout the day.
Reviews
Ashley and her three children were very nice, and took good care of our dog for an afternoon. She was very responsive and accomodating.
Ashley, Leo and family are amazing! Greg always comes back happy and worn out :)
Ashley was absolutely amazing, she gave me the little reassurance in regards to Bella if i felt worried. I had a slight delay with picking Bella up due to traffic & she had no issues .. highly recommend 10/10
Topaz loved Ashley. Ashley loved Topaz. She was great. Will def book again.

I have a fur baby myself. If I need to separate them, I do own a dog gate and a crate. I also have a doggie cam if I need to step out for any reason.

Information Ashley N. would like to know about your pet
Communication of your pets daily needs and schedules. My apartment echos and my neighbors like to complain so I can not host dogs who bark constantly, unfortunately.
A typical day
I will take the dog to beautiful dog parks that have separate small and large dog sections, sometimes nearby, sometimes a drive-away. Even if your dog is a couch potato, we love to provide tons of cuddles. I have a mental stimulation puzzle with high grade treats, tons of stuffed animals, lots of ropes for tug-and-pull games, tons of squeaky toys and frisbees for fetch. Oh! Can’t forget teething toys for puppies if your pup is going through their teething stage!
