Oaky is a fantastic dog sitter. She is flexible and communicative. She loves dogs and can read them. She cared for my dog very well. I highly recommend her.

Oakie was a great sitter for my dog. It was last minute but she was able to accommodate us and we were so thankful that she could. She sent pictures daily also text and responded to my texts in a timely manner. She was the perfect match for my dog. I highly recommend her and definitely will use her again.

Jeannette “Oaky” is an amazing dog lover who has always put her dogs first. You can’t go wrong by choosing her to watch your fur baby(s).

I can’t say enough good things about Oaky! Millie and Deuce absolutely adored her — they got so much love, playtime, and attention while I was away. She sent the sweetest updates and photos, which made me feel completely at ease. It was clear my pups were happy and cared for like family. I’ll definitely be asking Oaky to watch them again!

Safety, trust & environment

Pets will be supervised in fenced yard. Currently I do not have any pets of my own, but I have extra crates, baby gates, and dog beds available to keep your pet safe and cozy.

A typical day

I’d be the ultimate pet-sitter sidekick 🐾! I’d tailor the fun to their personality. And of course, lots of cuddles (if they’re into that), silly voices, and maybe a pet photo shoot to capture their cuteness.
