Pet Reminders

Pikes Bay Marina is pet friendly. That being said, we do need pet owners to follow some pet etiquette:

Please clean up after your pet. There are dog baggies in the pet exercise area
Pets must be on a leash that is controlled at all times.(There is an off leash park in Ashland).
Pets are not allowed, at all, in the kitchen, bathrooms or on the furniture.
Please do not allow your pet to use kitchen dishes (lick plates or water bowls). We have pet water bowls outside the boaters entrance for water.
Please keep your pet safe. Life jackets when pets are on board is a good idea

Please remember some people are allergic to pets And others are not a comfortable with pets. Please follow these rules and set a good example for all. Thank you!!
