Pet care experience
Dogs are the best, and for more than 30 years, I've provided a safe and loving environment for a select group of very small dogs in my home located on the Upper West Side of Manhattan located between Central Park and Riverside Park. After so much experience, I can honestly say that I read dogs very well. Each dog is treated with the same love and care I give my own dog. My home is their home. They can sleep in my bed . . . on top or under the covers. Your pet’s safety, well being and happiness are paramount to me as well as your peace of mind. I keep in contact with each of my pet parents through phone, email and photos, depending on your preference. I'm available from 7 am to 10 pm and I'd love to hear from you!
Reviews
Ashton is wonderful! She watches my pup Franklin, a recent rescue who can be quite timid and uncertain. Franklin has blossomed with Ashton - he is very comfortable and confident with her. I am so thankful to have her help with Franklin. I highly recommend Ashton!
Ashton is the best! She is kind, very knowledgeable, and loves dogs. Her location was also very convenient to the metro and dog park. It was our first time leaving our anxious toy poodle and Ashton immediately put us at ease and we felt very comfortable knowing he was left in good hands. She took the time to get to know our dog's habits and was very patient with him. Ashton was also flexible with our schedule and very accommodating with drop off and pick up times. Our dog also enjoyed playing with Ashton's sweet dog, Omi. After the trip, Ashton also shared great resources on what to feed our growing pup. Thank you Ashton for taking such great care of our dog! We will definitely reach out the next time we're in New York.
Penny Ashton is sensitive, safe and caring person who will provide excellent and attentive care for your dog. She cared for my rescue miniature poodle for three days shiortly after I adopted her. My Zoe clearly had a fun and secure experience with Ashton and some new and adorable canine friends.
I had to leave my "friend" with Ashton for almost a month. So my assessment process was rather thorough. But, more importantly, when I returned and picked up my "friend" he was as happy as could be. I supplied my Blue Buffalo food and biscuits which he was fed. I wanted him to be walked, and he was. I think he played more with other dogs than when with me which is also a good thing. Most important is that Ashton's own pets were wonderful. When I have to leave again this is the best for my "friend."

I live in a charming brownstone that is totally dog safe and dog friendly. I have 2 small chihuahuas so I don't do house sitting.

Information Penny A. would like to know about your pet
The size, age, health issues, diet needs or any particular needs. The boys need to be neutered unless they are surer well trained not to pee inside.
A typical day
Dogs are free to play with toys or each other, sleep on the bed, cuddle with me on the sofa or snuggle up in their own crates or beds. I love taking them to the small dog run to socialize when the owners give permission. I would like for all the dogs to wear both a collar and harness for their absolute protection and all of my doggie clients wear an identification tag with my name and number on it.
