Availability
I am currently leaning into pet care part time and plan to create this passion & love into a full time venture. I have flexibility in my life, so mornings, afternoons, and nights are available for pet care work & learnings.

About Ashley S.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I care for pets the way I’d want mine cared for — with gentleness, patience, and attention to their needs. Whether I’m in your home or mine, I keep things calm and consistent so they feel safe and at ease. I’m great at picking up on body language and little cues, and I always make sure they’re fed, comfy, and given the love and space they need. I’m a great believer in not settling for a bare minimum experience and when it comes to your home and pets there is a great amount of trust exchanged with both client & sitter. Both your home & fur baby will receive playtime, their outside time, love & attention, food & water (With dish cleanings) and attuned focus.
Information Ashley S. would like to know about your pet
The more I know, the better I can support your babes. It helps to hear about their personality, routine, any medical needs or sensitivities, what they’re used to (or what stresses them out), and what brings them comfort. I always want to hold space for their quirks and needs, just like I would for my own two cats & many others furry creatures and otherwise. Feel free to share anything that would help me create a calm, loving experience for them
A typical day
It really depends on the pet ~ I love tuning in to what each animal enjoys most. Some love a good walk, jog, or playful game of chase, while others prefer quiet cuddles, gentle brushing, or just being near someone calm and kind. I like to meet them where they’re at, whether they’re full of energy or more on the laid~back side. My priority is always helping them feel safe, cared for, and loved while you’re away. I show up with patience, presence, and a big heart.

Pet care experience
I’ve provided in-home pet sitting and dog walking for friends and family for over 3 years. While I’m new to the professional side of pet care, animals have always been a meaningful part of my life. I’m especially attentive to pets’ comfort and emotional well-being and love creating calm, trusting bonds with dogs of all temperaments. Whether it’s walks, cuddles, feeding, or just quiet companionship, I care for each animal as if they were my own. I love to take dogs out for walks & to tend to their unique needs. I am Pet First Aid certified through St John Ambulance & PSI (Pet Sitters International) ~ Your pets health and well being are top priority, and with knowledge comes the awareness and ability to prevent or take action in any given situation.

Reviews
Ashley went above and beyond for my fur babies while we were away on vacation. Paying special attention to each cats individual preferences and making sure each of them were taken care of. Multiple pictures and videos were provided as well as detailed updates throughout our trip. Ashley is a positive, kind and considerate person and I would recommend Ashley over and over again! When we got home both of our cats were very relaxed, happy and well cared for.
Ash always takes such good care of my fur babies and it’s so appreciated.
Always appreciate Ashley’s flexibility!
Another fantastic experience! Jo is a high energy dog but I know she’s always getting the best care with Ash!
