Pet care experience
Stay at Home Mom & Dog Lover
What sets me apart from other pet sitters is my unwavering commitment to providing exceptional care and my dedication to ensuring both pets and their owners feel completely at ease. Here are some of the key reasons pet owners trust me with their beloved furry family members: 1. Purdue University, & Licensed Elementary Educator: I am a proud graduate of Purdue University with a degree in Elementary Education and a minor in Global Studies. Before becoming a stay-at-home mom, I worked as an elementary school teacher for many years, honing my skills in organization, communication, and nurturing care. This background gives me a professional, reliable, and detail-oriented approach to everything I do. 2. Flexible and Accommodating Schedule: As a stay-at-home mom, I have the time and flexibility to give your pet the personalized attention they deserve. Whether it’s accommodating special routines, last-minute bookings, or extended stays, I’m here to meet your needs. 3. “Star Sitter” on Rover: I’m proud to have earned the “Star Sitter” status on Rover, a recognition awarded to sitters who consistently provide outstanding care. This distinction reflects my dedication to going above and beyond for every pet in my care. 4. Excellent Communication: I understand how important it is for you to stay connected with your pet while you’re away. I provide frequent updates, including photos and videos, so you can see firsthand how happy and well-cared-for your fur baby is. 5. Personalized Care: Every pet is unique, and I tailor my care to meet their individual needs. From following household rules and routines to providing enrichment activities and plenty of love, I strive to create a stress-free and familiar environment for your pet. 6. Behavioral Support: If there are specific behaviors you’re working on with your pet, I’m happy to reinforce positive habits and help with training during their stay. Whether it’s leash manners, crate training, or basic commands, I’ll collaborate with you to ensure consistency and progress. 7. Safe and Loving Environment: My home is a safe, comfortable, and pet-friendly space where your fur baby will feel like part of the family. I pay close attention to compatibility among pets to ensure a peaceful stay for everyone. 8. Attention to Detail: Whether it’s adhering to specific feeding instructions, administering medications, or addressing behavioral quirks, I pride myself on my reliability and meticulous attention to detail. With my experience as a elementary school teacher, combined with my dedication as a pet sitter, I bring a unique blend of professionalism, reliability, and nurturing care to everything I do. I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and happy throughout their stay. You can trust that your furry family member will receive exceptional care, tailored to their needs, giving you peace of mind while they thrive in a comfortable and loving environment.

Ratings and reviews
Ashley was awesome with Macallan and he came home with a big smile. Thanks Ashley
Ashley took good care of our senior dog. Loved the pictures!
Ashley was amazing with my dog. Highly recommend!
Very disappointed. Received no updates for several days. Only updates were after I sent several texts asking for an update. Dogs smelled when I picked them up. They must have been kept in filthy conditions. They were severely dehydrated and drank water for ten minutes once I got home. This is the worst experience I've had with any sitter from Rover.
Ashley took terrific care of my two dogs and was super accommodating on short notice! Will definitely look her up again next time I am in need.
Ashley took wonderful care of our Pepper for an entire week, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. She was incredibly flexible when our return flight was delayed, which took a lot of stress off our shoulders. We especially appreciated that she was willing to let us pick Pepper up at 1am after our flight - it meant so much to us. Ashley was kind, accommodating, and clearly cared about Pepper’s well-being. We would absolutely book her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!

Schedule
As a dedicated stay-at-home mom, I have the time and flexibility to ensure your fur baby receives the undivided attention and care they deserve. I’m always available to meet their needs, whether it’s frequent potty breaks, plenty of walks, or simply offering them comfort and companionship. Welcoming your pet into our home allows them to experience minimal stress during their time apart from you, as I strive to create an environment and routine that closely mirrors what they’re accustomed to. Their happiness and well-being are my top priorities.

Safety, trust & environment
As a loving and responsible mom and experienced pet owner, I take pride in providing the highest level of care for your beloved pets. With a degree in Elementary Education and a minor in Global Studies from Purdue University, I spent many years teaching in the classroom before transitioning to being a stay-at-home mom. This background has given me exceptional organizational skills, attention to detail, and a nurturing approach that extends to every pet in my care. I understand that every pet is unique, and I am excellent at following your specific instructions to ensure your furry family member feels safe, happy, and loved while with me. Whether it’s sticking to their routine, offering plenty of cuddles, or providing engaging activities, I am here to make their time away from home as stress-free and enjoyable as possible. I genuinely look forward to caring for your fur baby as if they were my own!
Pets
A typical day
When your dog stays with me, they’ll enjoy a variety of fun and engaging activities tailored to their personality and energy level. I dedicate plenty of time to giving them my full attention, ensuring they feel loved and entertained throughout their stay. Here are just a few activities we might enjoy: • Frequent walks around the neighborhood: Exploring new sights and smells while getting some exercise. I have a very dog friendly neighborhood with well lit sidewalks. • Plenty of Playtime: Fetch, tug-of-war, or simply running around to burn off energy. • Interactive games: Puzzle toys, hide-and-seek, or treat scavenger hunts to keep their minds sharp. • Cuddle and relaxation time: For those quieter moments, they’ll enjoy plenty of snuggles and belly rubs. • Socialization opportunities: If appropriate and approved, playdates with other friendly dogs. • Summer Swimming: My parents live a couple houses down and have a great inground pool that is perfect for dogs! If they enjoy splashing around I make sure to add this to your pet's agenda. (Safety is always my top priority. And, no pet is ever out of my arms within the water.) Your fur baby will never feel bored or lonely while they’re with me—I make it my mission to ensure their time here is filled with fun, care, and companionship.
