About: I have been taking care of animals over the last 15 years. I have show dogs that I do confirmation and sports with. I have experience in training, basic obedience. I have worked in a kennel setting. I am able to give medication if needed. I live on a farm and have a fenced in yard for any animal that would be staying with me. I currently am at home 90% of the day. So I would be able to spend the time needed with any pet. I have two dog of my own so we go on walks around the farm at least once a day I have a fenced in yard that is dig proof. I have crates that dogs can be separated in. I also have dog beds for comfortable sleeping.
“Tricie provided wonderful care for Cooper and Archie! She was very professional, communicative and detailed. Tricie provided daily photos of both Cooper and Archie. Based on those photos there is no doubt A & C enjoyed their playtime with Tricie too! Tricie brought in the took out the trash and brought in the mail, pkgs., etc. She kept the litter box cleaned daily and refreshed it on her last day of care. Tricie was an excellent communicator regarding the status of A & C! She gave us peace of mind that our fur babies were in good hands. We will definitely call upon Tricie again!”


About: Hi, I’m Ashlyn! 🐾 With over 10 years of experience caring for pets of all ages, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family members. From energetic puppies who need extra playtime and training support to senior pets who require patience and gentle care, I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s unique needs. I treat every pet as if they were my own—making sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s daily walks, feeding routines, play sessions, or administering special care, I’m reliable, attentive, and always focused on keeping tails wagging and paws happy. Your peace of mind matters just as much as your pet’s comfort, so I provide regular updates and photos to keep you connected. I can’t wait to meet your pets and give them the love and care they deserve! Since I work part-time, I have plenty of free time to give pets the attention they need. Daily walks, playtime, and snuggles fit easily into my routine, and I’m flexible to match each pet’s schedule. In my home or a client’s home, I keep pets comfortable and safe by sticking to their normal routine—meals, walks, playtime, and plenty of love. I make sure they feel at ease and cared for, just like they would with their family.

My daily schedule solely revolves around proper husbandry and care of my animals and the animals I train and care for. I have an 8 acre property that is fully dog fenced and secure. Social dogs can be mixed into play groups. For safety, dogs will be crated or otherwise secured to a bedroom, etc. at night and/or when I need to run out for errands.
