Pet care experience
Hello! My name is Ashley. I am an avid pet Lover! Animals are the best and if I could I would take care of all of them. I am currently an office administrator but my passion lies with animals and taking care of them. I have taken care of the smallest pups to some of the biggest (can you say two Mastiffs at once?), and I love them all. I have been animal sitting and house sitting for over ten years. I used to be an avid babysitter, but soon realized there is a great need for pet/house sitting and pursued that path. If you want to know more about me feel free to ask me any questions you may have! Also, I am willing to work with you and your budget, so just let me know and we can work something out!
Reviews
Ashley has dog sat for us several times. The following is why: first and foremost, we trust her. Second, she isn't afraid of big dogs or any dogs (our girl is 190 pounds and our boy is 200+ pounds). She is willing to be prepared, including she was willing to visit our home a couple of times the week before she dog sat to get to know our male dog who appears very aggressive toward all newcomers in our home. Finally, she doesn't panic under stress. When our girl was little (140 pounds) Ashley was squatting low to look at something and Maya climbed into her back, apparently it took a few minutes to get her off, but Ashley appears to have handled it well and was willing to come back again. In a nutshell, Ashley is trustworthy, dependable, and level - headed in stressful situations. I would recommend her to anyone.
Ashley is a good friend of my daughter's. She has taken care of our house and dogs several times. I trust her completely. She is very responsible and I never have a worry when she is there at the house. I recommend her highly!!!
About Ashley S.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I do everything I can to ensure the safety and care of all the animals I am with. I make sure doors/gates/cages are closed, make sure they are watched while outside, and pay attention to the extra quiet moments to make sure the animal isn’t getting into anything they shouldn’t.
Information Ashley S. would like to know about your pet
All I ask to know before hand is if they have any special needs, such as medications or special dietary requirements, and I would also just like to know how they are with other people and other animals, so I can keep them safe on walks or any trips we take together.
A typical day
I am loving and caring, but follow whatever rules I am given by the pet parent(s). I treat every animal I meet with love, and respect, and lots of scratches and rubs (unless told otherwise)! I enjoy taking dogs for walks around their neighborhood, and if permitted taking them to dog parks. If they are in the process of being trained I will continue to work with them so they can continue to improve while their pet parent(s) is away. I will talk to them and play with them, groom them, and most importantly love them! I love my car buddies and foster kittens when I am able to do so. I love all animals and have also taken care of pigs, chickens, ducks, reptiles, and birds.
