Highlights
Pet care experience
Your Pet’s Second Best Friend
I have extensive hands-on experience caring for animals in both personal and multi-pet home environments, including dogs of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs. I’m comfortable with routine care such as feeding, walking, administering medications, and maintaining structured daily schedules. I also have experience supporting senior pets and animals with ongoing health conditions, including those requiring consistent medication timing and close monitoring. I understand that every pet has their own personality and comfort level, so I prioritize patience, routine, and clear communication to help animals feel safe and settled while their owners are away. I pay close attention to behavior changes, stress signals, and individual triggers, and adjust care accordingly. I treat every pet as if they are my own and aim to provide consistent, calm, and reliable care that reduces stress for both pets and owners.

Safety, trust & environment
I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes to ensure pets stay comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routine with minimal disruption. During visits, I follow all owner instructions closely, including feeding schedules, fresh water, litter box or potty breaks, medication administration if needed, and any specific care routines. I also spend time engaging with pets through play, companionship, and calm interaction based on their personality and comfort level. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and wellbeing during every visit and will provide updates and photos so you can feel confident they are safe, cared for, and doing well while you’re away.
Ratings and reviews
Ashlyn did an exceptional job caring for our pets and home while we were away. She truly went above and beyond our expectations. We have three cats, each with different needs. Our oldest cat, Bonsai, is 17 years old and requires medication every 12 hours, a specialized diet, and extra attention. Because of his age and medical needs, he cannot go outside, so it was very important that doors remained closed and his care instructions were followed carefully. Ashlyn handled all of this flawlessly. Our other two cats are five years old and have a different routine. They needed to be let outside during the day, brought back in each evening, and fed their prescribed food on the same 12-hour schedule. Ashlyn kept track of each cat's feeding schedule and dietary needs, making sure they all received the proper care. She visited twice a day, exactly as scheduled, and provided wonderful communication throughout our trip. She sent multiple photos during every visit and completed Rover report cards each evening, giving us complete peace of mind while we were away. Ashlyn also took excellent care of our chickens by collecting eggs daily, giving them scratch, and making sure they were well cared for. She even reached out to ask if it was okay to feed them leftover watermelon that her family wasn't going to eat—a thoughtful gesture that showed how much she genuinely cared. In addition, she watered our three garden beds exactly as requested. What impressed us most was her attention to detail and her genuine concern for our home and animals. Even after our booking ended, she followed up with us to make sure everything was going well. That extra check-in wasn't expected, but it was greatly appreciated and speaks to the level of service she provides. We would not hesitate to book Ashlyn again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who is dependable, compassionate, communicates exceptionally well, and treats your pets as if they were her own. Thank you, Ashlyn, for taking such wonderful care of our furry family and our home!
Ashlyn was absolutely amazing! She was so kind and patient with our dog as it was our first sitter experience and we were all nervous. She was very detailed in what her and Cora did and how Cora was behaving. Will definitely be asking Ashlyn to watch Cora again if we ever need her.

Schedule
Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine and I’m able to provide consistent availability around my work schedule. I work in Meridian Monday through Thursday, but I can accommodate early morning drop-ins before work as well as afternoon care visits after I’m off for the day. On Fridays, I work from home, which gives me much more flexibility for scheduling visits throughout the day. I’m also fully available on weekends, making it easy to provide more frequent check-ins, longer visits, or added flexibility as needed. Overall, my schedule allows me to be reliable and consistent during the week while offering expanded availability and responsiveness on Fridays and weekends.
