“Alexander communicated well, as well as when our dog got hurt because being afraid of fireworks he offered a full refund to pay for the dog care, showing more worry about the puppy rather than being worried about being paid. Very respectable and good with Juno.”
“Arden had such a great time with Ashley and her active family. She kept me updated regularly, helped reinforce some of the things we are working on at home (he’s a 5-month-old puppy), and made sure he got plenty of exercise and time to just be a puppy. She also exposed him to new experiences, which I really appreciated at this stage. I’m definitely a protective dog mom, and I felt completely comfortable having her care for him. I will absolutely be using Ashley again in the future.”
“Very professional and prepared for my two kittens! She sent lots of updates and pictures throughout the day as well as had toys and pet care needs already there. I 100% would book with Ally again!”
“Hannah was great, super helpful, patient, friendly and easy to work with! She kept us updated and our pup was very happy and well taken care of. We’ll definitely use her services again. I highly recommend her!”
“Sarah was incredible. She kept me up to date with my kitty and was so responsive and helpful at every moment. I never do reviews like this but Sarah absolutely wow’d me with how excellent and involved she was. I implore anyone with an animal to give her some business!”

“Cheryl was our saving grace hours before we had to catch a flight (other confirmed sitter was not home). Our babies had a fabulous time running around Cheryl Green fenced backyard -another awesome surprise for last minute/in a pinch. Cheryl sent several pics throughout the day. Will use her again!”

“Mykenzie is a wonderful young lady and I highly recommend her for house and pet sitting. Our birds warmed up to her quickly and she took very good care of them. We felt comfortable and secure with her house and pet sitting for us for a week while I was away having surgery.”
“If you have never tried Rover before (or even if you have!), please do yourself a total favor and book with Katie! I run a small business with a substantial amount of clients and I have never had a more thorough and detail-oriented experience as I did with Katie. She was an absolute JOY to work with and I appreciated how she handled all of our animals - including the barnyard type! She sent me pictures and comments TWICE daily on how our pets were doing and it was obvious from the very first visit that our older (and sometimes grouchy) dog couldn't have been more comfortable or loved Katie any more. I was suprised at how quickly he warmed up to her - great judge of character! We will be using Katie on a regular basis from here on out and I feel like we had a family friend in our home rather than someone we just "hired" to dogsit. I couldn't have been more pleased with our experience. Her communication style is A+++++. Thank you Katie!!! This family is a lifelong fan :)”
“Jennifer is GREAT— she is reliable, prompt, and dependable caring for my three “Girls”- who are cats that act like cats do!!! She lets me know each visit how well they are behaving like cats and understands that - some days they are more interactive than others 🐈🐈🐈⬛😻”
About: My family’s cat Oscar is the first cat I’ve ever owned and he has taught me so much. Cats are very set in their ways and their routines and I’m happy to accommodate that! If you book with me, I promise that your pets will be taken care of and loved on, and above all else they will be safe!

“Appreciated the willingness to work with our crazy schedule! We will be booking additional days! Pup was worn and had a great experience solicializing with the other dogs! I have no doubt our dog will benefit greatly from his days with Alexander!”
About: I’m a retired lady who has always had a canine companion. My current pup is a ten pound yorkie. She’s 14 years old and going strong.

There’s very little traffic and lots of room. My yard isn’t fenced so I’ll always have your pup leashed. Your pet will be absorbed into our little family while you’re away.

About: I have had dogs for as long as I can remember and have been watching them for friends, family, and neighbors for about 7 years. I have a plentiful experience ranging from farm dogs that just need someone to make sure they are still there, to helping whelp four litters of kelpie pups till they were ready to go to their new homes! I love going on long walks and live two minutes from the walking trail so your fur babies can get plenty of exercise. I have a quite home and am well versed in giving senior care for your gray haired angels. I am currently working online so I have plenty of time to watch and care for your fur babies! I get up early in the mornings so times are never really a problem for me, I can come whenever is scheduled and work around from there. I have a fenced yard with about a quarter acre to run around in. Plenty of shade and a kiddie pool to splash around in. I have one very well trained and neutral/friendly dog in the house currently and one cat that is very dog savvy and knows to stay out of the way. I can easily crate if needed and live two minutes from the walking trails for easy exercise and care. I pride myself on leaving a home cleaner then I found it and having it appear that I was never there in the first place!

About: Hi everyone! I'm Ashley, the owner of All Paws & Pastures, your new go-to for all things pet and farm care.🐾 Need a hand with your animals? I'm here for you! I have over a decade of experience caring for animals, from always having my own dogs/cats from the ripe age of 3, to fostering/volunteering since 2010 to working in the field since moving to the area early last year. My services are flexible and comprehensive, including but not limited to: *Dog Walking & Pet Sitting (any time you're away)😺🐕 *Farm Hand Services (from milking cows to mucking stalls & collecting eggs)🐮🐎 *All-around Animal Care (for any need in between!)

I can't wait to meet your animals & treat them like my own Pet care IS my routine. I am a self-employed single mom and am able to be attentive to animals in my care.

At my home- I have a fenced yard, extra crates if needed, a runner line if needed and doggy gates inside for separated free roaming if needed. At clients home- I am there to keep the pets as much in their routine as possible. I come armed with treats, scratches & an understanding that some are shy a little longer than others. Check-ins on arrivals can be easily provided as well as many pictures!

About: Since the age of 10, I’ve been dog-sitting and walking for family, friends, and neighbors. I am now 20 so I’ve been at this for awhile! During that time I’ve gained a lot of experience handling pets and everything they throw my way. I also worked at a dog daycare/boarding facility for some time and gained lots of knowledge and experience from that as well. I have experience with handling large breeds and small breeds with no issues, pets who need special care, medication administration, and so much more! I know how important our pets are to us, they are like family and should be treated like it too! If you choose to book with me, I promise to treat your pets like my own and to give them the best care and attention. I’m currently a full-time college student at Carl Albert State College in Poteau, I do online classes which gives me a lot of free time and wiggle room for all your booking needs! I’m a very detail oriented person and love following routines, I think it’s so fun to see what the day-to-day plans are for the pets that I take care of. You can expect your pets to be taken care of how they typically are, too much change can cause stress so it’s best to stick to a routine that your pets know and love!
About: Hi My name is Tamie, I am married to the love of my life for 40 years. I have years of experience with my own pets. I have 4 dogs, 4 cats and 2 horses. Our furry kiddos are part of our family and they know it. I also have worked 8 years at a vet clinic. I have trained horses for years. I am a self employed, work from home. I have a flexible schedule to fit your pets needs. I am all about getting you pet out for walks, playing ball or frisbee. Or just giving some cuddle time. With my years of vet experience I have an eye for recognizing issues that might arise as well. I do offer feeding options, playing fetch, walking, of coarse lots of pets and belly rubs!! I do however believe in manners. I think rewards rather it be treats or pets and love are a great tool. I also believe that all energy should be applied positive , such as daily walks, playtime etc. If not energy can go to negative behaviors. I will not care for dogs that are aggressive. I am willing to come meet the dogs or cats prior to visits

I will only board select pets in my home due to my current pet's needs, but I would be extremely happy to take care of your pet's needs in their own environment where they may feel more comfortable and at ease.
