Emotional support human
Pet care experience
Hi, I actually go by Asher but Rover won't let me update my name yet. I'm a former direct support professional for disabled humans. Lydia was my first dog, a 75 pound shepherd mix with anxiety that I slowly trained because she came from living in a shelter her entire life. I know what it's like to worry about leaving your pet in a kennel where they can pick up diseases or pests, and they have dozens of animals to look after. In my home your pet would have their own space, be taken for walks regularly, and be given much more attention than at a kennel. Animals need attention in order to thrive, but sometimes busy lives make it hard to give all they deserve. Hiring help is the best way to meet their needs while you're taking care of the other parts of your life. March 2024 note: I can do doggie daycare one day a week when I am off from my night job and my roommate's therapy dog is at the office. I cannot do boarding at this time. For housesitting, I am gone some evenings from 8:30pm-1:30am for my night shift job.
Reviews
Bethany K. cancelled a booking 1 day before it was scheduled to begin.
Asher is so wonderful with our two hounds. The dogs get so excited when Asher arrives. We were away for 3 weeks and there was never a time that we worried about our dogs. Both dogs have some health issues and Asher took care of them so well. Do not hesitate to use Asher. THE BEST!
Asher (Bethany is an outdated name that River hasn’t changed yet) is a wonderful, thoughtful dog sitter. We had Asher and partner Ben dog sit for our two dogs for 5 days. Asher gave regular updates and pictures of our two pups and they seemed always to be tired from all the playing! Our two pups seemed to get along well with Asher’s two pups. Highly recommend Asher for your next dog boarding.
Asher took care of our Oliver for an overnight stay. We came home to a happy boy, who clearly had a good time with his new pal. Thank you, Asher! We will definitely use you again!!

Home
Information Bethany K. would like to know about your pet
We do not breed descriminate in this household. I do need to know about their anxieties and fears so that we can best meet their needs
A typical day
We take a walk or play in the yard every morning before breakfast. During the day we typically alternate play and naps all day until dinner time. If the weather is nice, we go for additional walks throughout the day (usually 2-4 total). Dinner is followed by a final potty break before bed.

Availability
I run my small business from home, so if I'm available it means your dog(s) will hang out with me while I'm home all day, getting plenty of attention.
