Pet care experience
Hi everyone! I have am moving from Lakeview East to Avondale (05/31) while I search for my first condo to buy in Lakeview after the coronavirus pandemic has passed. I will pick up your dog for free and do drop off as well due to the increased distance! My best friend Erin and I will be caring for your pup (primarily me) and she is on Rover so you can have peace of mind that she is a great person too! As a roommate duo, we have flexible schedules so someone is usually home FT! There is double the attention, play time and cuddles! We ONLY TAKE ONE dog at a time (unless siblings) because your dog deserves to have a stress-free environment where all the attention is on them (after all its their vacation too!). We run a non-kennel (unless you request) friendly home! PLEASE come visit for a meet and greet so you can see where your furry family member will be staying. Be sure to check out our picture wall of past pups! Dog Boarding: Our home has toys, treats (marked for various allergies), puppy pads, and more! We do not have couch or bed restrictions so your dog can sleep wherever they feel the most comfortable! We wake up early to make sure their little bladders do not get too full! We brush all dogs daily (if they would like) we have a CHI and Furminator brushes! We will provide you with many updates and high-quality photos (I have a great DSLR camera). Feel free to check a few out that I've taken of some of the amazing furry friends we have watched. IG: AshleyLindaRover FYI about our boarding rate - Rover boarding covers a 24-hour period or night of rate. We are more affordable than a dog walker and more loving than a kennel/boarding facility. 1/2 day rates are charged for 5+ hours unless in cases of an emergency (illness, plane delays, etc.) ------------------ Cat drop-ins: Do you need someone who ACTUALLY PLAYS with your cat? Well...I am that girl! I love doing drop-ins and giving your cat the attention they deserve. Also... if you love pictures - I will try to capture THE BEST photos I can so you can post them everywhere like a true cat lover! Check out my pictures of past clients I have had!
Reviews
Ashley is amazing! Mac loves her so much and he has the best time with her. She sends lots of pictures and updates. Mac gets lots of playtime and walks. I highly recommend Ashley!
Ashley is fantastic! She is wonderful, flexible and super accommodating, especially w our elderly dog who is prone to seizures. She made sure that Feste (said dog) was lovingly cared for and I had nothing to worry abt. We had frequent messages w pictures and I knew she was getting exceptional care. She got frequent walks, lots of attention and Ashley had not problem administering her meds. Very satisfied and this is not our first stay w her. We look forward to future stays as I totally TRUST her and her roommate (who was also instrumental)! Cannot praise high enough!
Ashley always takes great care of Sammy! He gets along so well with their pup, Pico, and she is extremely accommodating of Sammy’s needs and our schedule. He loves going over there!
Ashley and Veronica are ROCK STARS! Feste, our high maintenance, high anxiety dog, did great w them. I'm not sure Feste wanted to come home to us! Highly recommend Ashley et al as they did a great job -- they allowed us to do a meeting & greet, were incredibly friendly, personable, flexible and easy to work w. I will NOT worry about my dog when she is w them as I know she will be well cared for and all of her needs taken care of. HIGHLY, HIGHLY recommend! PS They have a ridiculous amount of toys to choose from, and Pico (the host dog) is adorable and a ton of fun. Feste loved romping w Pico!

Information Linda "Ashley" A. would like to know about your pet
I like to know about their behaviors and preferences - 1. Does your dog have separation anxiety? What has helped in the past? 2. What activity do they enjoy most? 3. What are they afraid of / dislike? 4. Does your dog have any allergies? VERY IMPORTANT for us to know! We only give snacks with your permission but all of our treats are allergy marked (see photo) so we should have something that your pup can have! 5. What commands does your dog use - so training can stay consistent. WE HAVE NO BREED PREFERENCES! All dogs will be loved.
A typical day
We take dogs out a minimum of 5x a day. We will have one LONG walk - usually 40-60 minutes which is GPS tracked. The screenshot is sent to you with all information about the walk. We have HOURS of playtime and a lot of GREAT photos taken! We will brush your dog daily - as tolerated. Some pups love the dog massages we give :) We do not crate dogs - unless the owners request this. We are an open household and your dog is WELCOME in all areas. Open crates are welcome so they have their space but can enjoy ours too! This is NOT a boarding facility or a kennel - we have a comfortable home!
