Availability
During the school year, I’m a full-time student at the University of Vermont and, when I’m not in classes or doing Rover visits, I’m often spending time with my own cat! I spend summers, and most other school breaks, at home with my family in IL. This summer will be my third year working part-time as an inclusion aid for children with disabilities and special needs in summer camps. My weekday mornings are spent there, but the rest of my schedule is more flexible, so I’m looking forward to doing more afternoon and evening Rover visits!

Safety, trust & environment
I recognize that every animal is unique and has their own wants and needs, and it’s important to me to ensure that your pet is as comfortable, happy, and healthy as they can be while you’re away! I’m happy to follow any instructions you have to care for your pet and your home. If there are any particular precautions you want me to take, or if there’s anything else I can help out with (e.g. bringing in mail, putting out trash cans, etc.) while you’re away, just ask!
Information Ashton S. would like to know about your pet
I’m grateful for any information you can provide about your pets to help me give them the best care possible. Please feel free to let me know about any specific requests you may have. If you have a pet that will need some sort of medication during my time with them, I ask that we schedule a meet and greet at a time when I can watch you administer the medication, to help me get a better sense of how to do so.
A typical day
My goal is always to keep up with routines that your pet(s) feel comfortable with, while engaging them in ways they enjoy, whether that means lots of playtime, cuddles, long walks, or practicing tricks!

Animal lover w/ lifelong experience
Pet care experience
I grew up with my family’s various rescue cats and dogs, so I’ve always been an animal lover. Since childhood, I’ve also enjoyed pet sitting for friends, family members, and neighbors whenever I’ve had the opportunity to do so. I’ve mainly looked after cats and dogs, but I also have experience caring for rabbits, guinea pigs, horses, and a couple of different types of lizards. I have some experience with training my family’s pets, and lots of experience with giving love to animals of all kinds! I donate 5% of my profits from each Rover booking towards humane societies and animal rescue organizations. I’m currently a full-time college student, so the remainder of the money I make on Rover is set aside and used to afford care for my own cat.

Reviews
Awesome sitter😊❤️
Ashton was super attentive to my kitties while I was. away. I got great updates and pictures and was so happy they were in such great hands!! Definitely recommend Ashton for all your pet needs :)
If you need a phenomenal pet sitter, Ashton is the one! Absolutely incredible service from start to finish. My fur babies were totally obsessed, and getting such great updates everyday made being away so much easier. 10 out of 10, would recommend!
Muzo was his normal self when I returned--always a good sign. He must have liked Ashton, who brushed him a lot.
