Dog Walking In Merry Oaks

About: Hi! My name is Sydney and I am a Doctor of Physical Therapy! I have grown up with cats and dogs and I have experience staying in other people’s homes to take care of their pets for an extended amount of time. I also have experience with walking dogs, whether they are well-trained or leash tuggers. I am able to be mindful of the boundaries of the pet owner and the pet themselves! Every animal deserves genuine love and quality care, and I am here to provide! I am currently not working as I am studying for the board exam to become a licensed physical therapist, so my schedule is very open! I am willing to work with your pet sitting needs! I am always attentive to the owner’s specific needs for their pet to make sure everyone is comfortable and cared for. I have a doctorate of physical therapy! I am a very trustworthy person as I take my patient’s health very seriously. I am here to care for all forms of life, big or small :)

About: I am a big animal lover! I have helped care for family members pets my whole life. I am a recent graduate of the University of Kentucky. During college, I fostered dogs and volunteered through the Lexington Humane Society. This work was so fulfilling and allowed me to provide shelter dogs with socialization and get them adopted! I would love to hang out with your furry friend(s) while you are away! I just graduated from undergrad and willing be starting my Masters program in August. I am working at a kids summer camp for 4 hours/day M-F this summer, so I have lots of time to help fill in while you are at work, on vacation, or otherwise unavailable. Through my time with the Lexington Humane Society, I completed trainings that covered dog behavior, body language, socialization, basic training, and basic health info. This knowledge helps me provide the best support while I am working with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and behaviors.

“Savana has done a wonderful job caring for our fur kiddos! She sends great update photos and always make sure they are exercised regardless of weather!”

“Christina is a fantastic dog walker! She has a natural gift for working with rescue dogs and was incredibly patient with our shy pup. She has built a genuine, trusting bond with our dog, which has made all the difference in our daily routine. She is reliable, professional, and truly treats our pet like her own. We are so grateful to have found her!”

“Keegan is exceptionally gifted with animals. She bonded immediately with our Sheltie Dani, whom she walked all summer. In fact he looked for her first thing when he got out of his crate. Having grown up on a ranch, she has a wealth of information about animals. This proved extremely helpful because at just over a year old, Dani is still a puppy. She conscientiously told us anything unusual that he did, e.g. yesterday he surreptitiously ate a small rock, typical puppy behavior. She came back everyday with stories of Dani’s antics (he loves to chase dragon flies!), showing how she lets animals into her heart. Keegan is extraordinary. We hate to see her go back to college in OK. We and Dani look forward to more walks when she comes home from school at the holidays!”

“Emiko was so great! Available in a pinch, did a great job with my fur baby and took her on a very nice extra long walk. Will be booking her again!”

“If this a first time user reading this please hire this guy. He going to give it 100% each time you need him. He communicates effectively and he sends you the best pictures of your fur baby. My Wife And I needed an experience walking for our high energy and sometimes awkward fur baby. He went above and beyond in doing a meet and greet with us before the official hire. Amari loved him and it shows in the results after each walk.”

“Ashley is our pup’s favorite! She is quick to respond and accept my last minute requests. She loves cuddling with our very needy boy and we are so grateful for her!”

About: I've had animals my whole life, ive taken care of cats, dogs and horses long and short term. I even lived on on a wildlife reservation in Africa to care for wild animals! I will do everything in my power to keep your animal safe, healthy, and happy. I am working as a musician so the daytime is going to be when Im available. The nights can sometimes work but that depends on the ever changing weekly schedule. I am fully committed to following any rules and guidelines the pet owner lays our. I do not currently have a place to host pets.

“Ali was wonderful. She asked whether I wanted to do a meet and greet with the pups ahead of time, since I was going to be away for most of the time she was walking them. She also kindly helped clean one of my pups up when he had some digestive issues. She was kind, reliable and my pups were better off with her caring for them while I was away.”

About: If your pet needs more than the bare minimum, you’re in the right place. I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life and I work from home full-time with a flexible schedule — meaning your pet gets real attention, not just quick check-ins. I currently care for a partially paralyzed dog, so I’m very comfortable with pets who need extra patience, monitoring, or help with routines. I also have a senior cat on a strict medication schedule, so I’m extremely reliable with timing and instructions. My home includes a fully fenced half-acre backyard, and pets staying here must be friendly with my sweet, playful pup who loves to run and explore outside. I work from home with a really flexible schedule so i can work my schedule around your pet’s needs. I wake up really early too so im available early if needed. I will respect your routines and instructions because I’ve been on the other side of this and i hope that my Rover’s treat my babies the same way. Lots of love and attention!

About: I absolutely love animals! My mom calls me the animal whisperer because every animal l meet loves me just as much. I believe it's because they know I'm a good person and they can trust me. Either way, your animal will be loved and looked after until their fur mom and fur dad gets home. I'm available all week 😄 you just let me know when you need me and I will be there for you and your fur babies ❤️ Unless the owner has a special way to care for their fur babies, then I just go with the flow. I do whatever makes their fur babies happy and have a great day while in my care.

“Tamicca is the truth! I’m so grateful for her! I’ve used her at least three times this week for a walk and drop in! She loves Bishop and he loves her! Always quick to respond and beyond understanding! Thank you! ❤️”

About: I have lived/taken care of animals my whole life. Have taken care of dogs,cats,bunnies,lizards. I have two dogs at home that I care for and have trained. I work at a coffee shop in the morning/afternoons during the week but after noon my days are pretty open and am usually available anytime after that.

About: I am an animal lover and have over 33 years of experience! I grew up having dogs and cats. I have had 3 of my own dogs and 2 cats, 4 of which were strays. I have trained all of my furry friends and even helped my Boston Terrier Mix have puppies. I have also cared for elderly pets and so I understand what it takes to give them the love and treatment they need in their more frail years. I currently have very flexible hours and can take care of your furry friend whenever you need me. I had a career in Nursing, but I am currently not practicing so I am free to help you out with your needs. I am very reliable and trustworthy. I have always had pets in my home, but take great pride in my home being well cared for and clean. I would ensure your home would be taken care of in the same way while looking after your pets. Whether it is my home or yours, or taking your pets for a walk, I will be respectful and ensure your pet and your home is well looked after.

“Let my pup out last minute which was a life saver. Very communicative which is easing! Thank you! Will definitely be booking again”

About: I am a disabled Vet that loves pups and can handle all of their needs. I love the outdoors so your pup will constantly have an outlet. I will help your pup expend some of its energy while you're at work or whatever your day entails. I love small dogs, but I am also large and strong enough to handle your larger pups with ease. I grew up kenneling animals as a family owned business, so I definitely can handle anything thrown at me. I am very flexible with times and understand if you're running late or if you need to drop off your pup early. My phone is on at all times so if you need to call and check in that's fine. I also will FaceTime. Any questions feel free to ask me anything. I work solely from home and I work at my own time so being able to take your pup out for walks and play time is easy, and quite fun for me as well/ I have a big yard to play in and a huge park nearby as well. I also use apple tags on my pups. It is always better to be safe.

About: I’ve had animals my whole life so I love dogs (and even cats.) I professionally started walking dogs in college when I had extra time and developed a love for hanging out with animals and helping others when they can’t. I’m currently a stay at home mom, so I have open availability to spend time with your furry friends! I would love to help someone out where I can. I will always love on your animals the way they like to be loved, whether that be just sitting with them or taking them on a long walk in the neighborhood.
