“I'm a first time Rover user so I was new to the process and a little apprehensive, but I had nothing to be concerned about- Autumn was amazing! We had a meet and greet with her before our trip and she immediately made us comfortable about leaving the care of our kitties to her. It's clear she loves animals and our two 9 year old kitties loved her visits while we were out of town. She took great care of them and was extremely communicative with us the entire time. I will definitely request her services again in the future!!”
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!

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.

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. Other business ventures take a back seat when I have a pet booked so your babies will have all of my attention! Determining the needs of each client is unique to them; however, I treat each pet as if it were my own. 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!

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 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: 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 work at a dog daycare/boarding facility and have 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!
