Testimonials 

Don’t hesitate to use Ashley if you’re looking for an experienced dog walker in the Morris County area. You’ll get a professional and compassionate animal lover who takes her job very seriously. She’s also very responsive and knows a thing or two about proper training techniques which is a great bonus.
— Johnny M.
Ashley is the best. She is much more than a great dog walker. She not only manages to walk my puppy, but to train her at the same time. Most importantly, she genuinely cares about the animals. If you are looking for any pet services, you cannot go wrong with Ashley.
— Brian M.
Ashley at Viva la Pet is an amazing caretaker! She goes above and beyond when taking care of your pets and her dedication shines through in every interaction with her. I could not recommend her more as a pet sitter and dog-walker. She’s amazing!

Ashley has been wonderful to our fur babies, she always takes the time to play with them during their afternoon visits. Ashley also goes above and beyond, besides keeping an eye on the dogs, she has also taken garbage cans in, taken mail in, brought packages in and watered plants. She makes herself available even for our last minute requests. One of our dogs can be reactive but Ashley is very understanding of his behavior and he enjoys her visits. I would definitely recommend Viva La Pet!! Ashley is a caring business owner and we are completely comfortable leaving our pets in her care.

Ashley is fantastic! I’m so lucky to have found her right after moving out to New Jersey. Not only is she great with my anxious 8 year old lab mix, Penny, but she was so helpful in making the transition go smoothly by providing recommendations for vets, dog parks, and fun stuff to do with dogs around this area. She is so passionate about what she does and it shows in how much care and attention she provides to her doggy clients (and their owners.) Call Ashley if you need a dog walker or sitter! She’s the best!
