Quirky animal lover

Pet care experience

I am a certified positive reinforcement dog trainer and working on continuing my education in positive reinforcement training. I grew up in a home that always had to have at least one dog. All of my friends have dogs and I take care of them when needed. I love dogs but can't have any of my own due to being a cat mom of 8 with one immunocompromised kitten and my older kitties get very stressed out around dogs. I'm an experienced cat mom and also have experience working with horses. I used to train horses on my grandparents Appaloosa Ranch. When I'm not training dogs at Petco for work or booked with Rover clients I volunteer my time at the Knox county dog shelter training and walking shelter dogs, and help ROCK (rural Ohio cats and kittens) TNR and adopt out kitties.

Ashley did amazing with our babies. She kept us informed on the things they did and sent plenty of pictures. Our boys were very happy. Will be booking again.

Ashley is everything you want in a pet sitter. She is responsible, likeable, and caring. Our two dogs loved having her with them and we enjoyed our trip without worrying about them. She is also a GREAT photographer, and the pictures she sent to us helped assure us that the dogs were fine. We highly recommend Ashley to anyone needing a pet sitter! You could not ask for more.

Ashley has been great with my pup while I work long hours. She’s very flexible and always makes it work with my schedule. She gives great feedback and updates . Will continue to use her services.

Safety, trust & environment

I do well with lists, so if your pet has any special needs or quirks I need to know please make a list for me, it's easier for me to commit written communication to memory than spoken. I'll follow your care instructions and guidance as you know your pet better than anyone else.

Information Ashley S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your furbaby has any special needs or behaviors, if there are places for walks I should avoid (ie, if they don't get along with children, or other dogs, it would be helpful for me to know so I can take measures to avoid any interactions with something your furbaby doesn't like). Please let me know of any allergies if you know of any just so I can know to avoid allergens.

A typical day

If you have a specific routine you'd like, I will adhere to that. If your furbaby has a favorite toy or several toys, please make me aware so we can play with those during my visits. If there is a nearby park your furbaby likes to go for walks, let me know and I'll gladly take them there to walk, jog or run.

I'm a dog trainer and, I always work Thursday and Friday evenings and Saturday mornings, I usually work Sundays but it can vary in times. My work shifts are usually between 4-8 hours average shift is 5. My earliest work shift is 8am and latest is 9pm. So if your furbaby requires a strict schedule I may not be the best fit, but if you they are a bit flexible (IE no meds that have to be at a strict time) I'd love to help out. I'll keep my calendar updated as soon as I receive my schedules.
