Goofy & Experienced Dog Friend
Pet care experience
Most of my childhood I grew up with a zoo's worth of dogs, cats, fish, snakes, and the occasional frog or salamander that my brothers would sneak in. I have always enjoyed animals, so much so that I spent my summers in high school working at my grandparents' animal hospital in NC. I have always had a soft spot for dogs, and I have my own hound mix pup who loves making new friends to play with. I have very flexible availability to come to your home for walks and check-ins. I am also particularly skilled with house breaking puppies, so if assistance is needed in that realm, I'm available to help as the need arises.
Reviews
Ashley S. loves dogs - she has a new rescue puppy herself, so she knows about patience, consistent training, praise and rewards. She also knows how much dogs need lots of activity, plenty of walks, and of course, playtime. In addition to being a great pet caregiver, Ashley S. is also highly responsible and trustworthy. If she says she is going to do something, she does! She is honest, hard-working and a wonderful communicator with people as well as pets.
About Ashley S.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I follow the requests of clients. If your dog is energetic and requires a lot of love and attention, I'm there for it, but I'm also more than willing to slow things down for older or more introverted dogs.
Information Ashley S. would like to know about your pet
I don't have any particular breed preferences, I love all dogs equally, but it would be helpful to know about any food allergies or such things before hand.
A typical day
I love long walks and tug of war, so if your dog also loves those things, we'll be fast friends! Also completely happy to snuggle and watch movies with any of your more low key fur babies.

Availability
I work for myself, so my availability is quite flexible. I keep my calendar as up to date as possible, so if I'm free, I'd love to drop by and see your pups!
