Pet care experience
Hi, I’m Ash! I have been dog walking, animal and house/plant sitting for the past fifteen years. I have experience with multiples (up to 5), anxious animals, senior animals, and medication administration. I prefer a meet & greet before every booking so I can get to know your animal(s) with your help in answering questions regarding their personality, reward system, dislikes, triggers, etc. Meet and greets are not necessary for repeat clients. I communicate often with updates and photographs and reply promptly during overnight stays or drop in visits so you can be at ease knowing all is well. I’m happy to learn your routine, commands & other care guides to make sure your bestie has a great time while you’re away, along with watering plants & bringing in your mail. I work remotely outside of animal care which means I can entertain last minute requests & extended stays. I look forward to meeting you and your pets!
Reviews
I will never use another sitter now that I have Ash! We've used her for various time frames, from drop-ins over a few days to a two week long stay. She took care of our 2 dogs, cat, and 2 Guinea pigs and gave us such peace of mind while we traveled out of the country. I highly recommend Ash to anyone who gets nervous leaving their pets or is hesitant about using Rover. She really has a way with animals which is something I noticed immediately during the initial visit. She cared for each one of them as if each were her own and they noticeably loved her for it! We also enjoyed all the photo updates while being away- Ash is an amazing photographer!
We LOVE Ashley! She communicates with us throughout our trip and sends lots of pics which is something we really appreciate. Our dogs have a pretty involved routine and Ashley adapted to it easily.
Ashley was great with our two energetic dogs and elderly cat. I have used her multiple times now and feel at ease knowing they’re in good hands. She sends updates throughout her visits, walks them to the park, and administers medication. I’m so glad we found her!
Spent the maximum of 16 minutes in a 24 hour period - one day spent less than 9 minutes with the dogs in a full 24 hour period. No walks, no overnight stay - pops in for 3 minutes to let them out in the yard and then left until dinnertime, fed them at dinner (5 pm) and left unattended until 7:45 the next morning. Neglectful care.

I have a fenced in yard and beautiful neighborhood for walking, in addition to nearby trails and parks! Depending on your animal’s level of comfort, we can decide together which activities are best before care begins.
