“Ashley did a fantastic job taking care of Ollie & Lucy. She went above and beyond! She took communicated and took many pictures of them both daily and sent those to me. My vat, Lucy usually takes a bit to warm up to anyone, and she lines Ashley right away! She not only watched them, but gave my Newfie a bath, and cleaned my house! I definitely give her 5+ Stars! I highly suggest Ashley! Your babies and home will be in good hands!”

About: I’ve always had pets in my house growing up. All the way from 3 new golden puppies to a 120lbs English mastiff to my now 8lbs chihuahua mix. I’m a retired Air Force service member. Looking for work with local law enforcement and have extra time on my hands. Available all the time, aside from whatever appointments I may have but will work around all schedules. I enjoy letting the dog be comfortable, however that may be. Whether they enjoy being in the crate or on the couch, it doesn’t bother me. Whatever makes my stay/visits as comfortable for them is what I aim to provide
“Katarina was absolutely incredible, I can't say enough good things! My dog comes from an abused background and she was so patient and good with him. He also acted out by tearing up my things when I was gone, and Katarina went out of her way to clean up and take really good care of my home even when he was being a mess! I'm so thankful I was able to leave him in such good hands.”

“Asmira took such great care of my little one. I got regular updates, and my pup was happy and relaxed when I got back. Super reliable and kind — highly recommend!”
About: Though I don’t have any pets of my own at the moment, I was raised having various animals in my home and on the property. So I have experience with many different types. I’m mainly free daily since I’m self employed. I enjoy taking long walks as a way to exercise and I feel I do a great job at keeping pets calm. I try to follow the routine of the owner but make sure I’m cautious with keeping doors locked and keeping harmful things away from the pets reach.
