About: I treat every dog like family—not just a job. I learn their quirks, their favorite toys, and what makes their tail wag. I build trust with both dogs and their humans, creating a calm, loving environment that feels like home. I will ALWAYS send updated pictures a videos! Even with a full-time job, pet care is a priority I plan around, not squeeze in. I only accept clients I can fully commit to—meaning your pet gets the time, energy, and attention they deserve. I offer early morning, evening, and weekend care, and I’m highly organized to keep everything running smoothly. Pet care isn’t a side hustle for me—it’s a passion I build into my daily life. When pets stay with me, they become part of the family. I provide a safe, clean, and cozy environment with plenty of playtime, cuddles, and structure. I stick closely to their home routines—feeding, walks, medications, and bedtime habits—so they feel secure and comfortable. I make sure they get mental stimulation, physical activity, and lots of love throughout the day. In-home care means your pet stays in their familiar space, which helps reduce stress. I keep everything consistent with your instructions—from feeding and potty breaks to walks, play, and downtime. I respect your home like it’s my own and always send updates, photos, and quick check-ins to keep you at ease while you’re away.
About: I’ve had years of personal pet experience from snakes to horses! I am a trained dog bather as well! I have 4 pets of my own and would love the opportunity to take care of yours!! Full time animal caregiver! Don’t be afraid to ask questions or ask for a meet up before we book! My schedule is very flexible so I should be able to work you in! I do have an young child so please be patient. I respond as quickly as I can and check my phone frequently. I am currently moving so boarding is not available at the moment. Thank you for understanding and I would be more than happy to house sit or make multiple home visits!
About: Been taking care of dogs all my life. My last roommate and I fostered rescue dogs and the local sheriff even started dropping off dogs to us instead of the shelter!!! I just finished my B.A. Degree and am now waiting for 2025 to start Medical school. Until then I have nothing else to do besides love dogs!!!! When caring for pets in my home or a client's home, my top priorities are trust and creating a comfortable environment. I take the time to understand each pet's unique needs and preferences, using positive reinforcement to build a strong bond. Activities are tailored to each pet’s energy level and personality, whether it's playtime, walks, or quiet cuddle sessions. By focusing on these aspects, I ensure a nurturing and enjoyable experience for every pet in my care!

Ashlyn M.
“Ashlyn is an extremely dedicated and passionate pet owner! She does extensive research into which choices to make for her pets health and well-being. She has switched her cats to a natural/raw diet that has dramatically improved their energy as well as all of their 9 lives!! Ashlyn would be an excellent choice to make when it comes to the person who cares for your animals. Pets are part of the family so you can’t trust them with just anyone, so trust them with Ashlyn and you won’t regret it!!”
