Dog Walking Marion Oaks

About: Ive been in the animal industry for about 7 years now. From researching care proper care at a kid to being a shift manager of a pet store, i’ve passionately worked with animals of all sizes and breeds. Our pets lives are what we give them and sometimes life won’t allow us to do that for them. They are so forgiving and understanding but that’s where I come in ! I’ll bring treats and a calming, fun and caring energy to your pets to make sure they are being cared for, loved and having fun as much as they would if you were there. I’ll always follow fun quirks or request that may make your pet feel safe and comfortable. Thank you for considering us to take care of your fur baby ❤️ Pet care is a huge part of our daily routine. I have a Westie named Swiss and walk her and pay attention to her diet a lot. My boyfriend has a Pit Bull named Smokey and focuses a lot on his active care. I work at Pet Supermarket so I see and take care of all types of situations with any type of animal not just dogs. Animal care is also part of our daily routine because we are always watching informational videos about how to take care of all types of animals so we know the proper care for anything. Pet care is a constant thing in our daily lives. We care for pets by staying on a routine. All animals need a routine and benefit a lot from that. I’ll always have one ingredient treats in hand for positive reinforcement and just for fun times. We always make walks interesting and long enough for my dog and any dog, every pet is different. I’ll bring or make fun mental games to tire out there minds so they stay calm and happy. They will be shown lots of loves and play time :) There is nothing that makes us happier then seeing animals happy and properly cared for !

“Amazing !!”

“Ashley is great. I contacted her for a mid-day walk for my old senior pup. We met a few days before. She is patient and kind and a great communicator. We are happy to have her working with our little guy.”

About: I’m home all day/night pet sitting full time! Once I became a pet owner I never looked back. My fury child is my life. As a pet owner for 14 years I am very skillful in all areas of pet car from teeth brushing to tick picking. I have seen them grow old, loose their hearing, sight and ability to walk, but never once treated them like an old dog. I take seriously the need for touch by brushing their hair as often as possible and giving belly ribs when they turn on their backs for that special attention. My bed is their bed as they like to cuddle and feel safe and secure. I am a morning person and love feeling the brisk air as I watch pets take to the grass for their morning outing. I am home all day/night! I am available as early as 5:30am to receive your fury child into my home. I have plenty of space for them to play and I for one like to keep them in my site. Especially the little ones, they can get into so much. I have 4 dogs parks right in my community and each one is covered in grass. I love to walk, so your pet will never be taken off schedule. I have the best water-resistant floors in the event of any accidents, just wipe and go. I take work/life balance breaks so always free to play with your pets. I am currently home all day/night! I can feed twice a day or more, and I offer treats, walks and lots of play time. I can separate your pet, if need be. I have lots of sleeping space for those that are just tired little pups. My house is quiet, no children so no bother. I have a closed in balcony which provide a nice look out point for your pet. I have stuff animals and dog toys that I leave around the house for playmates as well.

About: I have worked in the veterinary field for 10+ years from kennel walking, to front desk, to financial, to now a technician assistant working in a specialty hospital. I also worked as a Dog Bather at a grooming Salon & love giving baths and trimming nails! I’m familiar with all kinds of animals…chickens, cows, & reptiles too! I’m trained in basic life support. I’m currently home full time on extended maternity leave. I’m looking for families with children friendly dogs that love to go on walks as we love to be outside. But my mom is also home to watch my daughter if needed. I strive to keep to your pets schedule and familiarity of home while you are away. I aim to ensure they are loved and as stress free as possible without you.

About: My husband & I have raised our own children as well as our 4 legged kiddos. We look forward to getting to know yours now. I am currently working from home and have plenty of time to responsibly care for your pet. Play dates, daycare and sleepovers, sounds like fun. I do not offer a fenced yard, however my community has a dog park as well as walking trails. Crating can be available also if necessary.

I provide consistent, photo-heavy updates and am always reachable in case of an emergency Open schedule. Monday to Sun ((7am - 9pm)) Open for Holidays. Text me anytime! Don’t worry I will try to answer asap. Thank you for your trust and understanding! I use Professional Tools and products Only, I know perfectly how to handle it, 100% safety and trusted brands.

“Ona has been wonderful. I needed to find someone to help my father with his dog because of some health issues and she has been simply GREAT!! Her communication and reliability has been outstanding - especially because I’ve set this up from Colorado. It offers us so much peace of mind knowing we have someone to help walk Jax while my father recovers.”

About: Im in my 50's but Ive always loved animals since i was very young.. i was in 4-H as a teenager & thats when I started petsitting. When I was 28 i started my petsitting/housesitting business. I had that business for 20 years in Ohio. We moved here in 2019. I have continued my petsitting here & love what I do! My visits are about 30 minutes. I do feeding, watering, litter boxes, medications, insulin is okay also. I will bring in the mail and newspaper and water plants & fill birdfeeders. I enjoy walking dogs as well as playing with them in their yard. I am comfortable with many other pets including cats, Birds, fish ()I have a 40 gallon aquarium, & a 10 gallon) hamsters, gerbils (& other rodents) guinea pigs, ferrets, rabbits, iguanas and other lizards. Thank you so much! I also have experience with horses, ducks, goats & a few cows lol! Petsitting is my career so thats my priority. Visits are tailored to your pets needs. I like to schedule as far in advance as possible so I work my days off around what I have in the book. I tailor my visits according to your pet's needs. I can do as many visits per day as you would like. I can also stay longer if you need. When I do "housesitting " , its a bedtime visit, sleepover & morning visit before I head out for other clients. I will do as many drop-in visits as you would like during the day before I return for the overnight (housesit).

About: Over the past two years, I've had the joy of caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. From an energetic 8-month-old Staffy puppy I cared for over 6 weeks to sweet senior dogs who need gentle, patient love, I tailor my care to each dog's unique personality and needs. I've worked with a variety of breeds including Great Danes, Border Collies, terriers, and rescue dogs. Whether your pup needs high-energy playtime, calm companionship, or specialized attention, I'm here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you're away Over the past two years, I've had the joy of caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. From an energetic 8-month-old Staffy puppy I cared for over 6 weeks to sweet senior dogs who need gentle, patient love, I've worked with Great Danes, Border Collies, terriers, rescues, and more. I love going on walks while listening to music or audiobooks, so adding a friendly dog companion is never a hassle! Whether your pup wants to stop and smell every smell or needs a brisk walk to burn off energy, I'm happy to match their pace. I'm also available for drop-in visits to check on your pet, let them out in the backyard, or provide midday company. For cat parents: I understand that cats need patience and respect. I've cared for both indoor and outdoor cats, including seniors requiring medication like steroid treatments every other day. I always let cats come to me on their own time—no forced cuddles, just calm, reliable care. Unfortunately, I'm not offering boarding at my home right now, but I'm happy to provide walking, drop-in visits, and pet sitting at your place! Since I'm currently offering drop-in visits, dog walking, and house sitting at the client's home, I focus on making your pet feel comfortable and keeping their normal routine. For dogs: I follow your feeding schedule, take them on walks that match their energy level (whether that's a leisurely sniff-filled stroll or a brisk energy-burner), and provide plenty of playtime and attention. I'm happy to let them out in the backyard for potty breaks and will stick to any special instructions you have. For cats: I respect their independence and let them approach me on their own timeline. I'll handle feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, and medication if needed. I'm experienced giving treatments like steroids to senior cats. General care: I'll send you photos and updates so you know your pet is doing well. I can also bring in mail, water plants, or adjust blinds to keep your home looking lived-in while you're away. My goal is to provide stress-free care so your pet stays happy and comfortable in their own environment, and you can enjoy your time away with peace of mind.

About: 🐾 I’ve been caring for dogs for about 15 years and genuinely treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m a dog mom myself, so I know how stressful it can be trusting someone new with your baby. I’m big on communication and will always keep you updated with pictures, walks, meals, playtime and plenty of attention. I want you to be able to enjoy your trip or get through your workday without wondering whether your pet is okay. I’m comfortable with different personalities, routines and energy levels, and I’m happy to follow whatever schedule your pet is used to. Whether they want long walks and playtime or they’re happiest curled up getting attention, I’m here for it. 🐾 I am currently unemployed so I have a very flexible schedule. I can work around your time. I am also free on the weekends too. In my home, I create a warm and inviting environment where pets feel safe and loved. With plenty of playtime, regular exercise, and attention to individual needs, I ensure that each furry friend receives the utmost care and affection. I live in a townhouse but have a pet park next to me, where they can explore and interact with other furry friends, and I’m mindful of any dietary requirements or medications they may need. When caring for pets in their own homes, I understand the importance of maintaining their familiar surroundings. I follow your instructions meticulously, keeping to their routines, and providing consistent care. From feeding and grooming to exercise and cuddles, I treat your pets like they’re my own, ensuring their happiness and well-being while you’re away. Your pets’ happiness and comfort are my top priorities. With me, you can trust that your furry companions will receive exceptional care, attention, and love. Let’s discuss how I can provide the best care for your beloved pets!

About: I used to live on a farm and have all kinds of animals. I have loved and cared for animals all my life. I am ready to care for your animals too! I work from home, so I have the flexibility to check in on your pets as needed. Making a schedule that fits your needs, is my priority! I’m very trustworthy and reliable. I’ll leave things the same way, or better than I found it. I’ll care for your little loves as if they were mine.

About: What Pet Parents Can Expect Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 35 years of experience caring for pets of all kind, from pampered pups to quirky cats, bunnies, and everything in between. When your pet is with me, they’re not just getting care, they’re getting love, snuggles, playtime, and plenty of one-on-one attention. I specialize in senior pets, special needs animals, and those who just need a little extra TLC. Whether your fur baby is shy, spunky, or somewhere in between, I take the time to understand their unique personality and needs. You can expect: Regular updates with cute photos and notes A calm, nurturing environment A clean, safe space for play and rest Patience, reliability, and tons of love Experience with administering meds and handling special diets Think of me as your pet’s favorite extended family member, the one they’re always excited to see! Hope to meet your dog(s), cat(s), horse(s), etc soon! :) Pet care isn’t just part of my day. It is my day. From sunrise snuggles to sunset strolls, my entire routine revolves around the animals I care for. Whether I’m feeding breakfast to a sleepy pup, giving midday meds to a senior cat, or ending the evening with playtime and cuddles, every moment is planned with pets in mind. Caring for animals has been my lifelong passion, and I’ve built a lifestyle around making sure every pet in my care feels safe, loved, and understood. I’m always home or nearby, so your pet will never feel alone or neglected. This isn’t just a job to me. It’s who I am. When your pet stays with me, they become part of my heart and my home. The care I provide is 100% customized to whatever that pet's parents do as a routine with them. My goal is to make their stay with me as close to what they are used to as possible.

About: I’ve always been a dog lover ever since I was a little girl. I look forward to getting to know your fur baby and ❤️ them as if they were my own. I truly enjoy each and every animal I’ve ever come across. I truly believe, Dogs are man’s best friend. Thank you for giving me the chance to watch over your baby while you’re gone. Currently, I’m a stay at home mom of a little one year-old and I have plenty of time to spend with your fur babies! I can do drop ins and daily walks the morning between 8-12 and in the afternoons 4-7pm. I will play, walk, and tenderly love and care for your fur baby while you are gone. They will always have a friend in me.
