“SJ was very good at communicating and sending pictures and text updates. She was good with our animals and very patient with multiple texts when one of our cats went walkabout(they are indoor/outdoor). She eventually came back💜. Her prices are fair according to your needs. We needed house sitting and that was hard to find for 12 days. Thankfully SJ was available and reliable. We are grateful for her help because that is a long time to leave your fur babies.”

About: I’ve been caring for pets since I can remember and it’s truly a passion of mine. Over the past 11 + years, I’ve looked after cats, dogs, and small animals for friends, neighbors, and family. Whether it’s feeding, walking, giving medication, or just spending quality time, I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’m reliable, attentive, and always make sure your furry friend feels safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I also keep pet parents updated with pictures and messages, so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. I have 8 pets of my own that are all my top priority. I’m a big animal mom and know how important it is to take care of them and make sure that they are in good hands. I care for your pets by following your routine you have for them. I also keep the house tidy and will clean the liter box!
“Amy is the best! So caring and loving to our dogs. Takes care of all of the animals needs and goes out of her way to make them happy/comfortable. The best updates and pictures. Highly recommend booking!”

About: I’ve had pets my entire life and have always enjoyed taking care of them! I am very caring and will respect your pets needs! You won’t regret having someone dependable like me take care of your furry family. I work Monday through Friday 8-4:30. This leaves me available to stop by in the mornings on my way to work and also the evenings to give some much needed care! I am also fully available on the weekends to meet your needs. I am very attentive to pets and enjoy playing with them whether it be dangling a feather wand over my cats head while she jumps in the air to catch the feather, or playing fetch with my friends dogs!
About: I have always lived with dogs, terriers mainly, herding dogs, and lizards and cats! I lived with a roommate with guinea pigs, too! So fun! I am working part time at Homeland as a Food Clerk. Mainly work mid shifts, so I wouldn’t be able to do anything during the middle of the day. I work in Shawnee and live in Okemah, so anything in between those cities will work with my schedule. Do not have a suitable property for letting animals loose, so I'll come to you instead. I do not bathe animals, unless asked. Thank you!
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was a child. Neighbors, Friends, and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets while away. I’m currently working from home. I am available all day to care for your pets. Im available weekdays & weekends to accommodate any schedule needed. I have a fenced yard and a small yorkie to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate if needed and have a separate area just for pets.
“I would very much recommend Tirzha a dog sitter to anyone, and plan to continue using her moving forward. She's very communicative, responsible and my fur baby received the best care ever. She stayed in my home with my older dog and also took very good care of my house! She's very accommodating to special requests and just overall exceeded any expectations I had for my first time hiring a dog-sitter.”

About: I have taken care of animals of all kinds from cows to dogs to cats to birds to fish since I was a young teenager and pet and house and babysat as well. I have a pretty open schedule at this time to be able to flexibly fit in care for others and I have a reliable vehicle as well. I have different areas to play inside and out of the house. I also have a very comfortable big backyard. I also make sure to provide lots of water, food bowls, toys. As for when I housesit I just make sure to see what all the time schedules for feeding, snacks, treats ,exercise, sleep and play are and see what all they do from a day to day basis so I can replicate that in their home as best I can.
“Nicci was great with my Scarlett. She even took her on a couple of excursions (with my permission.) She was very professional and great with communication. Would definitely use her again.”

About: Ever since I was little I have always loved animals and have had at least one dog in our family if not more! I am very knowledgeable in crate training and dog training! I’ve had my share fair of sitters cancel on my family and I on trips so the importance of being reliable and responsible is always a priority! Our pets are just as important as our family and deserve just as much love if not more! I like to say animals are easier to love than other people sometimes! I work part time so I am home a lot and when I’m at work I have a roomate who loves dogs and has helped with letting them out to potty/play. I have a fenced in yard and even with that I will never let the dog outside unsupervised! If we go for a walk I will always make sure to communicate that as well as sending updates and lots of pictures of your pup to you while they’re in my care!
About: I've been working with all animals from a young age. It's become second nature to me. I love connecting with your pet to make their experience genuinely loving. I currently work part time with a flexible schedule, so I will be able to care for your pet almost anytime you need me to. I care for pets with love and I offer individualized support for each pet. Each pet is different and each pet deserves proper care and treatment, to include playtime, quality wholesome food, time being petted and loved, plus plenty of walks and always FRESH water!
About: Raised on a farm most of my life and took care of long horns and donkeys and a lot of other animals in Oklahoma. I had three dogs and a farm cat until I was 18. I moved out but I love animals and getting to know them. My schedule is part time weekly except I am not available on Saturdays and Sundays. I am available throughout the whole days throughout the weeks. I would be attentive, and I am very playful with animals. Am able to take out dogs every hour or less if needed in between.
