Long time professional dog trainer!

Pet care experience

Being a longtime trainer of both pet and service dogs, I am very equipped to not only care for you dog, but also teach them manners, commands, and even tricks! I am very professional and will always treat you and your dog with respect. I have volunteered for rescue organizations, fostered dogs, and currently work for both Starfleet Service Dogs Inc. a non-profit that trains service dogs and the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine as an associate researcher in a lab that studies human-animal interactions. I am also a fourth year Animal Science student at UC Davis focusing on animal behavior and will also be attending a masters of science program after my graduation for canine life sciences and behavior. I have many years of behavioral experience with dogs so my automatic reactions and actions with your dog might make them a more well-mannered dog on accident! Oops! I am more than happy to work with dogs that others do not want to; fearful, mildly aggressive, young (although I will not walk a puppy under 16 weeks of age due to vaccination timelines and the fact that I do work with dogs on a regular basis), dogs that require medication, and even deaf dogs which I can teach sign language to! I work with ALL breeds of dog and all ages above 16 weeks!

Ashley is one of the few people I know who I can fully trust with anything. She is the most responsible young adults I know and is an excellent dog trainer. Ashley is honest and will not except more than she knows she is capable of.

Information Ashley T. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if they have any fear or aggression so I can thoughtfully plan out my interactions and exercise routes with your dog; I first and foremost want them to feel safe and comfortable at all times. I am more than happy to work with your dog to overcome those reactions in situations when your dog is fearful or aggressive upon your request! I also request that you provide your own leash and collar for dog walks so that you can choose what equipment they wear on a walk. Also any commands that may be useful like: come, sit, look, leave it, and your praise and release words (and their favorite place to be pet or scratched!). I also need to be informed of any food allergies your dog has (not that I will be giving your dog unapproved dog treats or human food!) so I can react appropriately. And if you have treats for your dog I am happy to bring them on walks with your dog and for house visits and stays.

A typical day

Living next to many green spaces (schools, parks, etc.), I will create a custom route that hits those grassy areas! I also have 20 foot and 26 foot long line leashes that upon request I can bring on the walks for those open grass areas and can give your dog the true aerobic exercise they want! (This also makes for a tired dog which is a happy and well-behaved dog!)
