House Sitting Blanchard

About: I’m a firefighter, lifelong dog lover, and avid sports fan with years of hands on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I grew up in a home that always had four or more dogs, which gave me a strong foundation in understanding their needs, behaviors, and quirks. During high school, I also volunteered for two years at the Oklahoma City Animal Shelter, where I gained valuable experience working with a wide variety of breeds. From tiny 5-pound Chihuahuas with big personalities to gentle 150-pound Akitas, I’m comfortable handling dogs of all temperaments and energy levels. I take pride in providing attentive, reliable, and compassionate care tailored to each dog. You can count on me to treat your dog like family keeping them safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I’m a firefighter, and my schedule is very open,I only work Sundays and Mondays, plus one Saturday night each month. That gives me plenty of flexibility and availability throughout the week to provide reliable, attentive care for your pet. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or just keeping your best friend company, I’ll be there whenever needed to make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I know that every dog has a unique personality and routine, so I take the time to follow your instructions closely. From feeding schedules and walks to playtime, medications, and bedtime routines. My goal is to keep your pet comfortable by maintaining the routine they’re used to while giving them plenty of attention, affection, and exercise. Whether I’m caring for your dog in my home or yours, you’ll have peace of mind knowing they’re in a safe, clean, and loving environment. I also provide regular photo and video updates, so you can see how your best friend is doing while you’re away. I understand how important trust is when choosing someone to care for your pet, and I strive to make every dog feel happy, secure, and loved until you’re back home.

“Shelby was so good with our dog Jake and cat Mama. Jake went on several outings with her, and the house was well kept and all in order when we got home from our trip. A big plus to Shelby's care is she agreed to our request for a dog sitter on very short notice. I couldn't have asked for a better last-minute sitter. We will use her services for house/pet care again!!”

“I was nervous about someone we just met staying in my home with my dogs while we were away. Also, I have three pitties who come with a LOT of energy. Chris did an excellent job of making us feel comfortable at the two meet and greets, as well as this past weekend while we were in Tennessee. She was communicative and very helpful. She left the house cleaner than when she arrived. It’s safe to say that, given how it has gone so far, we are much more confident going to France for almost two weeks in a few days here. We’re confident Chris will take care of our home and pups. Got ourselves a dog sitter.”

“Mikayla is the greatest!! She did an amazing job with our fur/feather babies.”

About: I have lots of experience around all kinds and sizes of pets! I grew up with cats, dogs, and horses and have pet sit for families with multiple pets in the home. I worked at a wildlife rehabilitation center for multiple years so I have experience giving meds and caring for animals with special needs or health problems. I’d love the opportunity to set up a time to chat and see if I’d be a good fit for you and your pet(s)! I’m finishing up my last class at OU so I have a very flexible schedule and could be present for most of the day. I’m comfortable doing whatever is needed to keep your fur baby happy and healthy. I have experience taking multiple dogs on a walk, feeding on a schedule, letting them out, I can do it all!

“Yukie did a wonderful job loving on Shiloh while I was out of town for a couple days. Great updates and pics thru out the day. I felt very comfortable having Yukie in my home. Yukie is a sweetheart!”

About: My motto is that it's my responsibility to make sure that each dog feels the most comfortable, loved, and most importantly safe in the short time I have them. Every day that I'm with your pup, I keep that motto at the forefront of my mind. I know how important dogs are to our lives, so it's my duty to make sure that your pup gets to experience the same kind of love and care that they're used to at home. I'm an out of state college student who has three larger dog breeds at home that I miss so much. And I’ve grown up around dogs all my life so making pups as happy as I can and taking care of them just come second nature for me! Although I've been a lifelong dog lover, my experience with pups is much more far-reaching than that. I recently have over 2 years of volunteering experience at a no-kill animal shelter called “City of Norman Animal Welfare” and I’m hoping to take my lived experience and activism with animals into a summer job. I've worked with dogs big and small and loved taken care of all of them equally. I've also been trained in Pet First Aid and am experienced administering medication. When taking on a new client, I typically like to schedule a meet-and-greet. It's a great way to make sure that we're all a good fit for one another, which is so important to me. Likewise, it gives us the opportunity to chat face-to-face about your pup, their needs, and your care expectations. No one knows your dog better than you do, so it's always great to chat with owners in person about what makes their pup tick! Finally, I just love meeting new dogs!! like to get down on their level to show them that I'm a welcome presence here to make friends, and I'm sure we'll be best buddies in no time at all. I know how difficult it is to be away from your best friend, so communication is the name of my game. I'll make sure to send plenty of regular updates with accompanying pictures so you can see just how much fun your pup and I are having together <3 Note: Might do cats in the future, but as I’ve gotten older I’ve grown allergic so Benadryl is a must. I am currently working an internship at a museum with very flexable hours for the summer giving me lots of time to play and walk your pups! With the internship I just need to work 12 hours a week but can come and go from the museum as I like and can take an hour off for lunch, work only 2 days a week, only work early mornings, it is truely amazing having such an independent schedule, which is why I thought dog sitting & walking would be a great idea. Would love to do boarding/doggy daycare, like I said in my bio, I miss my dogs at home so much so giving some weekend love to yours won’t be a problem. But I do live in an apartment and having any animal for longer than a week without having them registered with the building would be against my lease, so I cannot do super long sleepovers :( My entire apartment complex is fenced in but because theres other people they would be on a leash, but theres PLENTY of grass to go potty and frolic. We also have a large yard in the center of the apartment complex where they can run and stretch their legs off leash. While all dogs are outside on or off leash they will NEVER leave my sight regardless of have a history of running away or not. Love playing fetch with dogs and rewarding good behavoir with lots of treats. (Dietary concerns considered) I drive a toyota highlander SUV with plenty of space for transporting your pups and making sure they’re secure and totally safe. Just like watching your dogs transporting them should be done with the utmost care and I have a squeaky clean drivng record. I currently do not have a crate at my apartment, but dogs generally feel most comfortable in their own bedding especially in a new unfamilar environment, if you’d allow me to bring it from your home and return it with your pet. There’s plenty of space in the apartment, but I’d only sit about three large dogs at a time to allow plenty of playtime space or incase they get the zoomies. Dog beds or crates can be in the livingroom or my bedroom wherever your pet is most comfortable sleeping. I am also comfortable washing dogs after having multiple sessions with them to gauge temperment. A lot of dogs get anxious with baths and I am more then comfortable handling that and have multiple times in the past, but I do not need to put myself in harms way dealing with aggressive untrained dogs. Nonetheless I understand that for a lot of middle aged dog parents bathing dogs is tedious and can hurt your back, so I am happy to provide a clean pup for an additional tip!

About: I’ve taken care of a variety of animals since I was 10 years old. I worked on my aunt’s ranch where I cared for a variety of animals including dogs and cats. I also have a lot of experience with dogs since I showed my dog in 4H and won several awards. I love animals of all shapes and sizes so I’m sure I will be a perfect fit for your furry friend. I care for my pets every morning and every night. During three of the weekdays, I have class but I return home right after to spend time with them and get them exercise. I carry dog treats with me when doing visits to help the dogs feel more comfortable. I also enjoy taking long walks with dogs to keep them entertained. I am particularly fond of cats, as they are my favorite animal. I have four cats myself, and I think cats are truly precious. I love taking care of animals. My apartment complex features a significant amount of green space and a dog park. In my apartment, there are dog toys, cat toys, cat trees, and three different pet water fountains.

About: I have had dogs of my own all my life! I am just about the biggest dog lover out there. I am really good with dogs of all ages. I am willing to do anything and be anyone the dogs need, whether that be a playmate or a lounge around buddy. I have 2 years of house/dog sitting experience so far, and am excited to have many more! I will make sure your fur babies are well taken care of, and look over your house while I'm at it. At the moment, I am not working anywhere, so my schedule is extremely flexible. However, I am planning on applying for part time positions soon, but will still have plenty of time to care for your pups! I am available to house sit whenever I am needed. My own dogs stay inside most of the time, so I have eyes on them quite often. They have a secure, fenced in yard that I let them out into very frequently, and I am always a step away watching over them. At night, I make sure all the doors are locked, and that the dogs are safely inside, have been fed, and have plenty of water in their bowl. When I house sit, I will have the same routine with your lovelies. I'll watch over them, no matter where they are, and I'll make sure they are safe and sound throughout the day and night! We can go over everything at the meet and greet before your trip! We can discuss rules for household and feeding schedules, any allergies, etc. Meet and Greets are conducted at your residence to ensure a safe and comfortable environment for meeting your furbabies. It also allows you to show me where you store food, toys, treats, etc.

About: Ever since I was little I have had a passion for caring and loving animals! When I was just 13 years old, I started my own pet sitting company and I’ve been doing it ever since. I have taken care of very old and injured dogs as well as newborn puppies. I love them all:) I am currently in college and have a very flexible schedule. The only time I have class is MWF from 10am-3pm. Tuesdays and Thursdays no class! I like for the animals to be inside with me, when I am out or inside the house. If I let them out, I like to be outside watching them most of the times. They are always welcome to be inside with me whenever they want.

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up on a ranch and have cared for dogs, cats, reptiles, and other animals throughout my life. As a kid, I regularly helped neighbors by feeding, walking, and playing with their dogs while they were at work or out of town. In high school, I also volunteered at the Oklahoma City Humane Society, where I gained experience working with animals of all ages and personalities. I currently have a dog of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for them. Whether your fur baby needs a walk, playtime, or company while you’re away, I’ll treat them like family and make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for! I’m currently a student at the University of Oklahoma, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week. Most days, I’m available in the early mornings and again in the late afternoons and evenings. During the summer, my schedule is especially open. I’m committed to being reliable, responsive, and making sure your pet gets the care and attention they deserve! I understand that every pet has their own routine, personality, and needs. My priority is making sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’ll carefully follow any instructions you provide regarding feeding, walks, medications, playtime, or special care. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and in good hands!!

“Alaina was great! She took the boys for some walks, one got muddy and she bathed him, and one also got an upset stomach one day in the house. She cleaned it all up and made sure he was good to go. She really did well with my furry kids. I will use her again whenever I am in need of someone to trust with them.”

About: I started volunteering at veterinary clinics in middle school because I’ve always had such a big heart for serving and caring for animals. I rescued my terrier/lab mix as a puppy, and she is very lovable and fully convinced she’s human. I’ve also grown up caring for very large family dogs, from Great Pyrenees and pit bulls to golden retrievers, so I truly love pets of all shapes, sizes, and energy levels! I also have experience caring for cats, birds, guinea pigs, and other pets through both personal experience and helping family and friends with their animals. As a recent OU graduate and former collegiate cheerleader, I’m dependable, active, and love giving pets lots of attention, care, playtime, and exercise.

My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to be dependable, attentive, and fully present for your pets throughout the day. I live in a very safe, pet-friendly environment with access to a dog park, walking trails, and a spacious, cozy interior where pets can relax, play, and feel comfortable. At the same time, I know pets feel most secure in familiar spaces, so whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours, my goal is always to create a loving, calm, and trustworthy environment where they feel safe, happy, and cared for like family.
