Availability
I have three dogs and a cat of my own, so while I can not board dogs, I take online classes, so my schedule is pretty flexible.

About Ashley W.

Safety, trust & environment
My dogs are crate trained but one is 12 and she is still scared of being locked in a kennel for long periods of time so she is allowed to roam when no one is home. She also thinks the cat is her baby so as long as she can’t get into his litter box they are golden.
Information Ashley W. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if there are any specific needs for your pet, be it medication or a special exercise routine. Having a senior dog, I have to track her urine output and give her medication based on her condition, so I understand that some dogs have unique needs.
A typical day
I believe dogs need both exercise and mental stimulation. I chase the dogs around but also give them time with puzzles and toys. Only one of my dogs is food-motivated, so I understand the difficulty of training non-food-motivated dogs. I enjoy letting the dogs smell anything as long as they don’t try to eat it or roll in it. Sometimes we walk trails and other times we just walk around the block.

Born & raised a crazy animal lover
Pet care experience
I’ve taken care of neighbors dogs since I was in elementary school and picking up poo since I could walk. I had a stint of being crazy about guinea pigs but family allergies didn’t allow me to ever own my own or bring them home. I grew up wanting a cat but family allergies once again prevented. Neighbors and friends had a large variety of pets so I’ve watched ball python’s, Guinea pigs, cats, fish, turtles, dogs, and birds.

Reviews
Ashley was so wonderful and communicative. I would definitely book again!
Ashley provided timely, friendly care for our two cats and sent photo updates which we appreciated!
Great pet sitting for our two cats. Sent tons of wonderful pictures.
Ashley is fabulous and my dog loves her! She is extremely thorough and thoughtful. I feel very relaxed knowing she is dropping by to see my dog when I am at work. Oh and she takes great photos of my dog - I love the pictures I get.
