Senior, medical and special needs!

Pet care experience

The biggest thing that sets me apart of most people is my love for animals. I would say I live and breath caring for animals is a variety of ways. Pet sitting is one of them! I have a super soft spot for those senior pups, I have experience with medical and special needs animals, I have worked in emergency vet medicine and currently in primary care. I have experience with all types of dogs, cats, small and large animals. I want to make sure you feel comfortable in the care you receive and go above and beyond for your pets, I am open to all sorts of arrangements including restricting my home to only one pet at a time. I’m very open in house sitting or in my own home, I even take cats and love my feline friends as much as all the others. I do have my small dog who loves to make friends and my cat who is easy going. Let’s chat and see what’s best for you, I can’t wait to meet your four legged friends! Even when I am working which is full time at a veterinary clinic I can make the time for mid day breaks or in special cases for medical care I am able to bring pets to work with me. Which is extra handy for special needs pets. I use my valuable skills in animal care I have learned through work, volunteering and fostering to give them great enrichment and a fun time with their new favourite pet sitter! I would treat them just as my own and listen to their needs by observing their behaviour. Some pets want more play time, some want more cuddles. Either way we’ll have fun and I’m sure we can give them the care they deserve.

Ashley was wonderful! She is so experienced and great with animals with medical needs. You can tell she really cares about making sure our pets have everything they need. I would feel completely comfortable recommending her to anyone that wants their fur baby to be well cared for. I’ll definitely book Ashley again.

Ashley is the most kind and compassionate person I have met. Her work in the veterinary field as a receptionist and tech assistant has given her very valuable experience. Her expertise with rescue animals and pets is unparalleled. She treats every fur baby as if it were her own. She is mature, responsible, and thoughtful. You could not ask for a better care giver for your furry family members.

What makes Ashley such an amazing pet caregiver is that she treats any pet she cares for like they’re her own animals. Whether that’s going for car rides, having late night cuddles, or going to the dog park, she doesn’t just provide them with their basic needs, she provides them with a friend that they can trust and love while their own humans are away.

Information Ashley W. would like to know about your pet

Any information that you can think about is handy! Food, allergies, liked and dislikes, behaviour, experiences. I want to know what a normal day looks like for your pet so I can try and mimic that as much as possible to ensure a good transition.

A typical day

Walks, cuddles, puzzles and pets. Every pet had their own way of having fun and I think it’s important to monitor your dogs behaviour to determine what that might look like for them at that time.
