I have made the difficult decision to close my little business of pet sitting in Stillwater. I started Whiskers2Tails because my job ended at a school and at the time, no one was hiring. I searched for a teaching job for almost a year until I finally landed a librarian position in OKC.
Pet sitting was a way for me to supplement my teaching income (which is still miserably low), working many long hours, sometimes 7 days a week for months at a time. I gave up all my breaks from school to work hard for my clients and their pets. My daughter, Lauren, joined me in the business several years ago and we've both loved taking care of our furry friends over the years. I was very proud of myself for starting a business and seeing success for many years until Covid changed our lives. Our business dried up and we haven't been able to recover enough to keep going.
I've loved being a champion for pets and animals in Stillwater, and plan to continue to do so.
Thank you to our clients and their pets, many of whom we have taken care of for a few years now. I will miss those kisses and snuggles from my furry friends.
