Hi! My name is Ashley Skelton, and I have been running PAWdicures 2 Go since 2016 (but I have been doing nail trims since 2011!). I am a Certified Veterinary Assistant, Pet Sitter,Dog Walker & Pet CPR/First Aid knowledgable through Animal Behavior College and a Stay at Home Mom. I currently have 3 cats, 1 dog, and 1 hamster in my home, along with my Husband & 2 sons. PAWdicures 2 Go came about while we were stationed at Fort Hood, Texas. I previously ran Kritter Sitter, but there was a greater need in the Killeen/Fort Hood area for mobile pet nail trim services (as well as cat nail caps). I was the only one in the area who offered affordable mobile pet nail trim services, and came highly recommended as well.
I have loved, owned and worked with animals ever since I was a little girl. I have owned cats, dogs, horses, guinea pigs, rats, hamsters, mice, ferrets, rabbits, chickens,ducks, steers, some reptiles & birds, as well as freshwater & saltwater fish.
During my school years I was actively involved in:
Girl Scouts, FFA, 4-H, Science Fairs, Crystal River High School Academy of Health Careers, Crystal River High School National Honor Society, Horse Shows & Livestock Shows.
I also went to the Academy of Environmental Science during my Junior and Senior year, where I participated in Envirothon, Save our Waters Week Jeopardy, Ocean Bowl, and NaGISA seagrass studies.
I graduated Magna Cum Laude at Crystal River High School, and second in my class at Academy of Environmental Science.
My prior work experiences include:
Kritter Sitter, Killeen/Fort Hood, Texas
Meadow Wood Animal Hospital, Lawton, Oklahoma
Fins & Critters Pet Shop, Lawton, Oklahoma
Girl Scouts of West Central Florida- Camp Wildwood, Wildwood, Florida
Shadowhills Farm, Dunnellon, Florida
Crystal River Preserve State Park, Crystal River
I've also worked at multiple horse barns in Florida, when my horses were boarded.
I am always contuining education to further my skills and knowledge by taking courses, as well as doing research!
