About Us
At Desert Doggie Adventure Camp, we believe dogs deserve adventure, variety, and joyful experiences that feed their body and spirit. Our boutique-style outings are built to engage your dog through movement, exploration, and social time in a small group of other friendly, well-socialized pups.
Each adventure focuses on enrichment: new sights, sounds, and smells to explore, new friends to bond with, and regular chances to reinforce basic manners using positive, gentle training. Whether it’s a walk beneath the palms in one of our beautiful parks, off-leash play at a local dog park, or a mountain hike on one of our dog-friendly trails, every outing is structured, safe, and thoughtfully planned.
At Desert Doggie Adventure Camp, we care about the whole dog. That means not just physical activity, but emotional & mental well-being too. Every outing is led with patience, compassion, and a focus on making sure each dog has a great time, every time.
Meet Your
Dog Walker
Hi, I’m Ashley! Founder of Desert Doggie Adventure Camp and your dog’s new favorite human. I’ve spent the last 12+ years turning my love of animals and the outdoors into a career, leading group hikes and dog walking adventures in both Washington and Colorado.
With certifications in Applied Animal Behavior & Canine Studies from the University of Washington and the Northwest School of Canine Studies, I bring a deep understanding of dogs to every adventure. I’m not just here for the cute pictures (though we take plenty). I’m here to create safe, structured, and joy-filled experiences for social pups who love to move, sniff, and explore.
After years of adventures in the mountains, I’m bringing the fun to Palm Desert, a place I've loved since I was a young kid visiting my grandparents. With sunshine, palms, and wagging tails, I can’t wait to welcome your pup to the Desert Doggie crew!
