Dog Walking Oak Ridge

About: I love having a job where I get to make new animal friends! I would love to show your animal(s) that fun and safety can be assured even when their humans are away. I have spent my whole life around animals of varying species. I love to get to know each personality of every animal. The safety of every animal is my top priority at all times. That does not limit the amount of friendship, socialization and care I can provide for your animals. I grew up around dogs, cats, birds and fish. In the last few years I've broadened my experience of different dog breeds, sizes and personalities as a volunteer transport driver helping those animals that need a ride toward a better life. I have also volunteered at an emergency animal shelter, providing scared and confused dogs and other animals a caring voice and soft touch to help gain their self-assurance. I am insured through the Pet Sitters Association. I currently work remote 2 days a week and have to be in the office 3 days a week. January 1st it will be 4 days in the office. If you are close to Main St. in Toms River I can take them out during my lunch break. Since I would be in your home, I would ask about routines at the meet and greet. I will take notes but you can leave instructions, if you wish. I currently work remote 2 days a week and have to be in the office 3 days a week. January 1st it will be 4 days in the office. If you are close to Main St. in Toms River I can take them out during my lunch break. Outside of those times I can be in your home with your babies. I would follow the routines your pet is already used to for their safety and comfort. I provide daily updates with pictures to let you know they are happy and safe.

About: I am a super big animal lover!! I have had cats and dogs my whole life and I couldn’t imagine life without them. I’ve raised two of my dogs from puppies and love to teach them tricks and commands. I love to take them to the beach or the park, it’s my favorite part of the day. I work from home and have plenty of time to take care of your pet!! I love to go on walks, runs, or take your pup to the beach! I love to be active so any activity that permits dogs I WILL be taking them !!! If I am laying around my house, my dogs are on my lap and we’re hanging out together. I have a puppy and we’re attached at the hip. I love doing things with my pets and tend to not let them out of my sight for long periods of time.

“Dana is so sweet! She was very responsive to my messages and initial call. I'm so glad to have met her. Looking forward to having her walk our sweet Bella more often. Thanks again Dana.”

“Nicole looked after my pup a few days this week and I could not have been happier! She was very accommodating with specific requests I had and she did not mind staying over a few min to make sure my pup finished her meals. She sent plenty of pics of their walks and updated me frequently. She was a pleasure to hire and I will definitely be booking her again for future walks.”

About: I love animals I have been taking care of animals since I was a kid. Making sure every animal is loved is very important to me. Pet care fits into my daily and weekly routine through planned, consistent time set aside for each pet’s needs. On a daily basis, I schedule time for feeding, providing fresh water, walks or exercise, cleaning litter boxes or waste areas, and giving attention, playtime, and companionship. I also monitor pets for any changes in behavior, appetite, or health. On a weekly basis, I incorporate deeper cleaning of pet areas, restocking supplies, grooming as needed, and reviewing any special instructions from pet owners. I plan my schedule in advance to ensure pet care responsibilities are met reliably without interfering with other commitments. Pet care in my home and/or a client’s home is provided based on the specific service requested and the individual needs of each pet. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding schedules, portion sizes, medications, exercise, and routines. In a client’s home, I ensure pets remain comfortable in their familiar environment by maintaining their normal daily routine, providing fresh food and water, cleaning litter boxes or waste areas, and offering companionship, playtime, and supervision. In my home, pets are kept in a safe, clean, and calm environment with appropriate supervision, regular feeding, exercise, and rest. I prioritize the pet’s safety, health, and emotional well-being at all times and communicate with owners as needed to provide updates or address concerns.

I grew up with dogs /pets my entire life from pit bulls to pugs and rabbits to frogs. I love to be active and out in nature with my four rescue dogs! I am experienced in senior care and young pets alike. I also have skills with basic training of all age. I can't wait to meet your baby and provide them with entertainment and enrichment while you are away! I am currently working on my master's degree in an online program and work part time, both responsibilities warrant flexible hours that I am able to schedule myself. This will allow me to give your baby my full focus, attention, and loving! I have a fenced in yard and a basement that can act as a separation if need be. I am reliable and physically strong and love to play and cuddle with pets that want to or am just as able to give them the space to try to have them gain my trust. I am also experienced in bathing large, anxious dogs.
