HI! I'm Ashley, I'm 26 and have recently returned to Rover from a long hiatus. I have an 9-year-old German Shepherd mix named Riley and a 14-year-old Bombay cat named Midnight. They are the sweetest best friends I could ask for. I love animals, I'm currently attending Antelope Valley College and perusing a major in Ecology and a minor in Evolutionary Biology. I've been around dogs my whole life and more recently (the last 4 years) cats. I was a dog sitter for my neighbors as a teenager. However, as an adult, my job required more time than I had to spare. However now that I am attending college three days a week and work fewer hours, I have more free time to spend with animals. As an added bonus, I'll bring my camera to take wonderful pictures of your pets, free of charge! Thanks for your time, I hope to spend my time caring and playing with your pets! My schedule is pretty open until I return to school August 16th 2021. The I will be unavailable in the mornings Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursdays. Carefully and with great consideration. Often I will ask many questions upfront about your animals normal routine, potty times, feeding times, bed times, and any other special requirements that might be necessary to care for them.
