Dog Walking The Oaks-Oak Park-Northwood

About: I've always loved animals and treat every pet like they're my own. I'm patient, dependable, and committed to making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, or sticking to a specific routine, I pay close attention to each pet's individual needs and personality. I'm happy to provide updates and photos for peace of mind and always strive to create a positive, stress free experience for both pets and their families. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability for pet care throughout the week. Because of my hours, I'm able to accommodate walks, drop in visits, and overnight stays in many cases. I enjoy spending time with animals and can provide them with the attention, consistency, and care they deserve while you're away. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, I make their safety and comfort my top priorities. I follow each owner's instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any special care needs. I take the time to help pets feel comfortable in their environment, give them plenty of attention and affection, and keep a close eye on their well being. I also make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure during walks and outdoor time, and I'm happy to provide regular updates and photos so owners know their pets are doing well.

About: Animals have been a big part of my life for over 20 years. I currently have two dogs that I raised from puppies, so I understand the patience, consistency, and attention that great pet care requires. I treat every pet like family and always aim to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I currently work as a freelance software developer, so I have a flexible schedule with open availability for pet care. This gives me the ability to provide reliable, consistent care and be available for walks, drop-ins, and other pet care needs throughout the week. During walks and drop-ins, I prioritize safety by using secure leashing practices, monitoring the environment, and making sure pets have fresh water and plenty of attention. I also provide regular updates with photos so owners know their pets are being well cared for. My goal is to make each visit stress-free and enjoyable while treating every pet like my own.

About: Ive grown up caring for dogs since I was a kid. 8 years ago I had the pleasure of becoming a dog mom to a German Shepherd. I will often also take care of my brothers herding dog at the same time. I am used to caring for two large dogs at the same time including walking them twice a day. I often dog sit for family and friends over the last 6 years, including dogs and cats. My own GSD struggles with separation anxiety and social anxiety so I have become really good over the years of prioritizing walk times that will ease his stress. I am happy to accommodate to any time a fur baby may need their walk times adjusted to reduce other animal interaction. My GSD is around 100lbs and often gets excited, so I am more than able to handle any size dog that may get excited for anything even squirrels! I am a full time grad student but around that schedule I have time most mornings and evenings to walk and play with all animals. I am open to animal sitting most nights depending on my exams for that week. I can easily crate dogs due to experience crating my own dogs. I am comfortable feeding all diets to any animals, giving baths, walks, etc.

About: I’ve had pets my whole life- dogs, cats, hamsters, fish, rats, hedgehogs, etc. Anyone who knows me knows I have such a big heart for animals and am truly amazed by them. I am currently in school to get my degree in biology to use to work at the San Antonio Zoo in animal conservation. I am trusted by all friends, family and coworkers to pet sit- I even have experience in administering medication to pets and experience in caring for senior animals. I believe all animals deserve love and respect no matter their size, and I promise to take care of your pet like my own. I currently work as a manager at a coffee shop, so I don’t mind getting up early or staying up late to take care of your pet. I am not on a fixed schedule, so week by week it may change but I will always have time to care for your pet. I am a very aware person, and I know how much pets are part of the family. I will ensure that no animal gets out and that their routine is accounted for at all times. I believe in making sure animals are well taken care of- physically and emotionally.

“My dogs absolutely loved Alechia! I hired her for a couple of days walks while I was out of town and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! She came and met them and they immediately were drawn to her (dogs know good people)! I will definitely hire her again!!”

“Tim is timely and each dog gets a walk around the block. Our shy dog is improving with routine that Tim gives us each week. Our little dog who is mostly blind loves the walk. This is his chance to get out and smell the neighborhood ❤️”

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life and I also am a dog mom of two little fur babies. 1 boy and 1 girl name Lux and LouLou, they are almost one years old. I have so much love for fur babies and just want them to have the best life they possibly can just like us.... I am a college student, who is out for the summer and also work Part-time at H-E-B. I also love to fish on the weekends. I give them my full attention just as if they were my babies but I also let them have their fun and exercise so they don't feel alone without there owners.

About: Took care of both my dog and cat together, they have since passed. My favorite part of the day was coming home to them and giving each of them play time and a walk for my dog. My husband and I just moved here. I am a new mom to a 4 month old baby and would love an excuse to love on some animals and get some extra steps in the day as well. I do not have anything animals of my own so your sweet animal will be my focus during our time together! I will walk your pup or play with your cat and clean up after them as needed.

About: Raised on a southern farm with multiple dogs, many cats, and farm animals, I have a lifetime of extensive experience with animals of all types. I currently have 6 pets of my own and have owned, rescued and fostered both dogs and cats for 30 years. I am highly skilled at providing care to pets with special needs or those of advanced years. I am very accomplished at giving medications / fluids / injections. I am regularly requested for pet care by associates, family, friends and neighbors and genuinely enjoy it. I am self employed with a flexible schedule. I can easily manage a wide range of pet care hours and can work with your routine. I adore my own animals and they are constantly spoiled and loved like family. I want to provide the same level of exemplary care for your pet(s) as I would expect to have provided to my own.

About: I’ve taken care of my dogs and some neighbors dogs all my life. Starting from puppy training to becoming responsible on the daily habits of walking your dog, making sure to give them food and water everyday, play with them and more. How some people are really good with kids? That’s me but with pets! I am currently in college so around my schedule, I have all the free time in the world to spend precious time with your child while you’re away! We have a fenced yard at my house which has prepared me for picking up poops around the yard if need be. My dog when hot we will bring him in and lay in the crate so I can be flexible for the needs of your pet.
