Pet care experience
LOVE AT FIRST SNIFF - I've always felt a special bond with animals and have always had them around in my life. I have experience with big and small dogs, high-energy pups to low-energy couch potatoes- from newborn kittens to senior dogs with disabilities, I've seen it all and loved every moment. I'm calm and approachable with animals, ensuring they feel comfortable around me at their own pace. I can apply any training you have worked on with your pup to continue to reinforce their home expectations to ease their transition to a new place.
Reviews
Asia took good care of my dog while I was away. She provided daily updates with photos and videos, which helped my anxiety about leaving my dog. Asia also managed to work things out when my dog was naughty and didn't get along with her cat. She's an excellent, trustworthy sitter.
Asia was 10/10 amazing. From the pre trip interview to the daily updates with pics and vids, we felt like our pets were in great hands the whole time.
Asia is absolutely amazing! This was my first time leaving my dog with someone who isn’t family, so I was nervous as my dog is fairly reactive. Asia was so wonderful and kept me up to date with Cali’s progress. She even put on music for anxious dogs for my pup! Cali came home and is acting herself (as if I never left her with someone new), sometimes she pouts for a few hours after returning home, but not today! This is a really good sign to me! Highly recommend!
Asia was the perfect person to watch Bevy (and she will be doing so again SOON). She sent updates daily with pictures as well. SO HAPPY to have found her!

NO RUFF DAYS - I know that your beloved pet is like no other and I provide a personalized approach to every pet. Being away from their owners can be stressful, so I'm patient and not forceful, to ensure they feel as comfortable with me as they can, at their own pace. Most importantly, I know that YOU will be missing them like crazy so I'll also provide you with frequent updates about how they're settling and cute + funny pictures! I know that leaving your best friend with a new person can be intimidating so please let me know what will make you feel most comfortable in terms of updates and care. WHAT TO EXPECT AT HOME - I live with my husband and my cat, Misia. My cat was raised with other cats and dogs, but she will likely stay away from your pet or watch them creepily from a distance until she feels comfortable. We live in a spacious 2 bedroom apartment with multiple spots for a dog to lounge or to play fetch when the zoomies hit. Most dogs' favourite spot is on my couch by the window, monitoring the comings and goings of the neighbourhood.

Information Asia K. would like to know about your pet
- FOOD: does your dog have any dietary restrictions or special routines around food? - EXPERIENCE WITH CATS: how does your dog react to cats or other small animals? If your dog has never met a cat, no worries - a meet-and-greet will provide your pup an opportunity to meet my cat and to gauge their reactions. Note - if they generally like to chase or bark at small animals outside, and they have never met a cat, it might not be a good fit. - ANXIETY (e.g. separation, generalized): If you have an anxious pup, I'm here to the rescue! I offer a calm environment, with low stimuli, relaxing music designed for dogs, and general comforting approach for dogs requiring a bit of extra reassurance. - TRIGGERS/FEARS: Please advise of anything your pup feels uncomfortable with so that I can avoid undue stress for them during their stay. - CRATE-TRAINED: Please let me know if your dog sleeps in a crate or another arrangement. All arrangements are fine, just good to know in advance.
A typical day
BARKING UP THE RIGHT TREE - I want to make sure your pet gets to use up all their energy to play outside, sniff around, and meet new fur-buddies (if they are into that). We could go to one of the 3 ravine parks by my house on a long walk full of exploring and play fetch or any of your pets favourite activities. The ravine is full of exciting scents, fun sticks, and many new nooks and crannies to roam around. At home we can relax after a fun-filled day with snuggles and treat breaks.

NO FEAR, I'M HERE - I currently work from home full-time with a flexible work arrangement. I am able to take your dog out every few hours and give them any attention during the day. My partner and I are both home in the evenings.
