Pet care experience

Would love to walk your pups

I am a resident at UTHSC and love caring for pets in my free time. I grew up with three dogs, but currently do not have one of my own so I would love to take care of yours to get my fix of doggo cuddles and walks. I take a daily walk and would love to bring your pet along! I also do a fair share of lounging so I get along great with lazy pups as well! I live about one block from a dog park, so if given permission I can easily take your pup for a fun play date to the park!

Doggy Day Care • Aug 04, 2026

Okeemah was a delight & my dog was happy in her care while we were visiting Memphis. She is the closest sitter to Graceland & Beale Street. Though we had a confirmed 2-day booking for day care, there was a last minute emergency at work (she was on call) she had to attend to. She tried to offer some options but they just didn't work, so the Saturday sit was cancelled/refunded. Honestly, this put us in a bind but we adjusted our plans as best we could. She was available Sunday & gave my dog the kindness & attention he needed. She send photos of their walks & relaxing on the couch - loved that! Overall, I recommend her & would look her up again if in Memphis.

Can’t say enough great things about Okeemah! She loved my tj as much as he loved her! His happiness was obvious in every single pic I received! She eased my mind and I knew he was in good hands. Will definitely continue to book Okeemah and recommend her to others!

Okeemah is a wonderful person with a great personality. She can brighten anyone's day. She is also very responsible and trustworthy. She has had many pets and has cared for them all. I couldn't think of a better person for the job!
