About: I’ve had all kinds of different dogs and cats throughout my life and am part of a big family which has the same, let alone my animal sitting experience with ages ranging from babies to some senior pups. I’ve never met an animal I didn’t love:) I’m currently working part time while finishing my college degree, but definitely have time to meet some new furry friends! Look forward to meeting you and your fluff ball and being able to provide some extra love to your fur pets!:) I think it’s important to get to know your pets needs and I understand the importance of consistency for fur babies. Willing to do whatever makes you and your fur baby most comfortable while providing some extra love and pets:)
About: I have taken care of 3 dogs, 2 cats and 10 chickens over the past 30 years and provide service in Naples FL and in Boston MA I am available Thursdays, fridays, and Saturdays in Naples FL, but very flexible depending on your needs. Do not hesitate to call me, I can give your pup the time and love he deserves. I would prefer to come to your home, only because my home is not fenced in, but could keep the dog on a leash at all times outside
“Ashley is an exceptional pet sitter! She took wonderful care of our pets, ensuring they were happy and healthy while we were away. Her attention to detail and genuine love for animals really stood out. We felt completely at ease knowing our pets were in her capable hands. Highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
About: I’ve always wanted my own pet, but because my friends had their own; I’ve been able to take care of pets since 2015. I have an abundance of love to give to my friends pets everytime I see them. My friends have trusted to leave their pets with me to take care of and pets love to see their aunty (me) when I come over ☺️ I’m currently working part time (from home mostly) & contract (in person). Depending on everyone’s schedule I’m pretty flexible. I try to have breaks around 12-2pm, and finish the rest of my work day around 7pm. Depending on the house, I let pets out in the backyard to potty or I will walk them around the neighborhood. I feed them at their designated time. I make sure to play and love on them through out the day.
About: I've had a passion for caring for animals ever since I can remember. I would often pet sit for friends and family and I quickly learned I wanted to spend my life working with animals. Fast forward to the present, I am a full-time pet sitter that keeps a special place in my heart for each and every four-legged friend I've been able to care for! Pet care is my full-time job, so your pet is my top priority! I am available every weekday, weekends, and most holidays. I am available for overnight stays and drop-in visits. Overnight stays allow your pet to have someone there all day and all night to get the love they need while you can't be there; and drop-in visits allow your pet to get the care they need at the times they are used to at a frequency you pick. Feel at ease knowing your pet is in the comfort of their own home able to carry out their normal routine- whatever feeding, potty, and walk times your furry friend is used to.
About: From puppies to elders, I have had various experience with pups of all sizes and ages! Working with the local police department with their training tips and tricks, closely working with pet training professionals, and official cuddler!! I’ve had various experience with all different types of work with dogs- more than willing to maintain specific training, or just have fun with your pup!! I am a full-time school adjustment, counselor, and I’m available after 4 PM every weekday!!! Weekends, I am typically available all day!! Summer school is coming up so I should have Fridays off and that would be an additional day that I am able to hang out with your pup! I have a fenced in yard and a very friendly puppy, we are more than welcome to having any fun, loving pup in this house who is reasonably trained (meeting just not chew my whole couch😂)! Our large fence and backyard is perfect for any size dog and we live in a very quiet neighborhood where walks can be enjoyed:)
About: I have worked as a professional dog trainer for Monty's Dog Training and Services for the past 5 years. I have abundant experience with dogs of all kinds, ages and needs. I work closely with aggressive and reactive dogs, as well as dogs with anxiety. No dog is beyond help, it just takes time, patience and persistence. I currently work part-time, so I have a lot of free time that I would love to fill with pet care, and especially dog training. Helping dogs in need and their people is a passion of mine. I have a strong background in dog psychology and am more than capable of handling any issues that may arise with either one or multiple dogs. I am pet first aid certified and will be able to act quickly in the unlikely event of an emergency.

“Aston is absolutely amazing with dogs! The fact that he is also a dog trainer gives added assurance he can handle walking any dog, even those that need a little added care/attention. Aston has helped walk my huskies for years. He has been with them through the rambunctious years and now helps in their senior years. They love their time with Aston!”
