Home Away From Home
Hi! My husband and I live in Apex. We have 4 kids, ages 10 and 13 (two sets of twins so only 2 ages!), and one cavapoo. I am a nurse and now work as a case manager from home. Pets have always been a huge part of my life and I’ve passed my love for animals onto my children! We lost our 4 year old goldendoodle to lymphoma and that left a huge void for our family. While we are not quite ready to permanently welcome a new family member, we have a lot of love to give your pet when you are away. You can leave your pet knowing they will be treated just like our own with lots of rubs, cuddles, and walks! Our dog, Max, loves a playmate. Our children are great with animals as well. We have raised our pets from puppies, taken care of family members’ pets when they are traveling, and checked in on neighbors dogs when they are away. There is always someone ready and willing to play with or walk your pup.

Ratings and reviews
We always know Barkley is in good hands at Ashley and PJs.

Ashley, PJ, Sadie and the rest of the kids, including Max, gave Lotus so much love and TLC and tons of fun times! Great communication with pictures and videos warmed our hearts.
Barkley loves going to Camp Max and can’t wait to go back.. the counselors are great!! 😊

Frosty had a great time and Ashley took good care of Frosty. Thanks again Ashley!

Clyde had such a great stay with Ashley and her family! They were so friendly and welcoming, and communication was excellent throughout the weekend. Clyde clearly had the best time playing and being loved on, because he came home absolutely exhausted and has been catching up on his sleep ever since. It gave us real peace of mind knowing he was so well cared for. We’d happily book with Ashley again and would definitely recommend her!

Ashley was wonderful from start to finish — from our first chat to the meet & greet and throughout Millie’s stay. She’s incredibly responsive, accommodating, and just so easy to work with. The whole experience felt seamless and completely stress-free. During Millie’s stay, Ashley sent regular updates, photos, and videos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear that Millie was happy, comfortable, and very well cared for. I trust Ashley with Millie so much that I’ve already booked another stay with her! I’m so grateful we found her and would happily & highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, attentive, and dependable sitter.

Schedule
I work from home so am available to provide your pet the care they deserve. On the occasion I have a meeting out of the house, I am able to schedule it around the needs of your pet as I have complete flexibility over scheduling. My husband is a teacher so is also free to help by early afternoon.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
We do not have a fenced yard, but there are sidewalks, greenways, and dog parks all around us. We take our own dog on multiple walks per day, so are often outside. We have an open floor plan with lots of room for playing fetch. Because we have raised 2 dogs from puppies, we have a crate available if needed as well.
Pets
A typical day
We will go on multiple walks per day. Our neighborhood has sidewalks that are safe and away from busy streets. Your pet will have a playmate with our dog, Max, who loves to play chase and tug of war. If fetch is your pup’s favorite pastime, we have lots of experience throwing the ball on repeat! There will also be no lack of belly rubs and cuddles when it’s time for a rest.
