Ocean Township borders Eatontown, so Oakhurst is only a few minutes from our home base on McKenzie Road. That short drive matters. It means we can promise Oakhurst families a dependable weekday 10am to 6pm, week after week. Top Dog Pet Care has been walking Monmouth County dogs for ten years, and we’re fully insured.

Weekly walks for Oakhurst families

Many Ocean Township homes have big backyards, and it’s tempting to think a yard can stand in for a walk. Most dogs don’t see it that way. A yard is somewhere to wait, while a walk is somewhere to go. Sniffing new smells, meeting neighbors, and moving at a steady pace tire a dog out in a way that pacing a fence line never will.

That’s why we focus on recurring weekday walks. You pick the days that fit your work schedule, and we fit your dog into a regular route. Many dogs start to recognize “walk time” within a couple of weeks and stay calmer for the rest of the afternoon.

Top Dog covers all of Ocean Township including sections like Wanamassa and Wayside and Oakhurst.

Walking near Joe Palaia Park

For homes close by, Joe Palaia Park at Dow Avenue and Whalepond Road is one of Oakhurst’s best-known green spaces. It has trails that walkers, runners, and cyclists share, plus fields and a disc golf course. It’s a multi-use park, so we keep dogs leashed, give other park visitors plenty of room, and always pick up after them.
