MEET YOUR DOG WALKER

Hi! My name is Ashley Diaz, owner & sole operator of K9 Ascent. I opened business in 2014 on a mission to create happier & healthier pets through exceptional pet care. I lived by the slogan: a tired dog is a happy dog! But through the years, I found that physical exercise alone was not enough to fulfill the dogs I worked with and I began studying more about training & enrichment.

Today, my services incorporate exercise, exploration & engagement, creating a more holistic & fulfilling experience for our dogs. We venture to different parks, trails & neighborhoods to explore new sights, smells & sounds. And we work to engage the mind through basic training & structured walks; all while exercising & socializing with a small group of furry friends.

I believe the canine-human relationship thrives when centered around respect for our unique needs as different species, compassion in knowing we are all on an individual journey & a genuine love for our dogs, each other & ourselves.

SAFETY FIRST

At K9 Ascent, safety is our top priority. We keep our group sizes small, ensuring safety while giving your dog the personal attention they deserve. With over 10 years experience working with dogs, K9 Ascent is dedicated to staying up-to-date on the science behind dog behavior, psychology & training. We use our experience & education to handle dogs with respect, compassion & love.
