Early Life

Sierra Oakley was born on July 15, 1997, in Yukon, Canada. Sierra is the eldest daughter of Michelle Oakley and Shane Oakley. Sierra grew up in Haines Junction along with her younger siblings Maya and Willow Oakley. And while her father worked as a firefighter, Sierra looked up to her mother who is a wildlife veterinarian.

Sierra grew up surrounded by animals, both at home and at her mother’s clinic. She helped her mother with various tasks, such as feeding, cleaning, and medicating the animals. Sierra was also interested in sports, especially hockey.

High School and Hockey

She enrolled in high school in Yukon and played the left-wing forward position in the female hockey team. She was part of Team B.C. at the 2012 National Aboriginal Hockey Championships held in Saskatoon, Canada. Her rise in the sport saw her achieve the captain band of the Yukon female hockey team and represent at the Canada Winter Games in 2015. While she led the team from the front her younger sister Maya Oakley guarded the net as goalie.

From Yukon to Vet School: Sierra Oakley’s Medical Journey

After completing high school, Sierra pursued her pre-med education at St. Francis Xavier University in Nova Scotia, Canada, where she earned a Bachelor of Science. While still in college, she worked as a veterinary assistant at Oakley Vet Services, the clinic run by her mother, Dr. Michelle Oakley. A 2018 social media post by Dr. Oakley highlighted Sierra’s contributions that summer, describing her and her sister Maya as “awesome assistants”—not only amazing with animals but also keeping the team’s spirits high during challenging moments. Sierra supported various tasks such as administering vaccines, performing physical exams, and assisting with surgeries. She also traveled with her mother to remote locations in Yukon and Alaska, where they provided veterinary care to animals in hard-to-reach communities.

After graduating in May 2019, Sierra was accepted into the Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM) program at Murdoch University in Perth, Australia. As of 2025, she is in the final clinical phase of her degree and has participated in international fieldwork—including a large-scale spay and neuter campaign in Baja, Mexico alongside her mother. These experiences have strengthened her hands-on surgical skills and deepened her commitment to community animal care.

Sierra has also appeared in the television series Dr. Oakley, Yukon Vet, hosted by her mother. The show, which premiered in April 2014, aired its twelfth and most recent season in 2023, warmly capturing the heart of life and veterinary care in the Yukon. While the series has since wrapped, Dr. Oakley continues her meaningful work in the field.

Throughout the series, Sierra’s role evolved gradually—from assisting behind the scenes to actively participating in medical procedures. Her on-screen appearances paralleled her real-world progression from student to a veterinary professional in training, reflecting a steady and practical development in both skill and responsibility.

Dr. Oakley, Yukon Vet and Controversy

Sierra Oakley and her siblings literally grew in front of the camera. But being the eldest of three, Sierra was pushed into the limelight earlier. The show mostly focuses on Dr. Oakley’s veterinary works- nursing the needs of animals in Haines Junction, tending to remote calls, and even running a satellite clinic 150 miles away. The inclusion of family time with her daughters and husband makes it possible for viewers to have a peek at her family life. However, not everything comes with welcoming hands and the Oakley family has faced first hand. Sierra Oakley had her first hunt, a male Caribou during a family excursion. The part was documented in Season 1, Episode 3 entitled “One Angry Muskox.” In the episode, as a passage of rite from father to daughter, Shane Oakley teaches Sierra to track and shoot her first kill. And, her mother and sisters were there for a moral boost. Sierra Oakley indeed tracks and shoots, securing the hunt of a Buck. However, it was not received well among viewers, especially since Dr. Oakley works in the clinic to save animals. Viewers were critical about how she could encourage and participate in the hunt.

Her Siblings Maya and Willow Oakley

Sierra has two younger sisters, Maya Oakley is a middle child, born on December 02, 1998.  And Willow Oakley is the youngest one. Like Sierra, her sisters including the youngest Willow are passionate about helping their mother. From a young age, Maya and Sierra have been a sidekick to their mother’s veterinarian works.  During summers, the two spend most of their time working behind the scenes and for the camera alongside Dr. Michelle Oakley. Both daughters have appeared in the Nat Geo Wild show “Dr. Oakley Yukon Vet.”

Evidently, Maya likes to care for and treat animals however she finds her career passion elsewhere. She studied criminal justice at the University of Western Ontario. Unlike Sierra who sees herself working in Yukon, Maya is critical of cold and wants to move to a hotter place. During high school, Maya and Sierra shared the same hockey team (GCDS Mustangs) where she guarded the net.

It is an early call to judge Willow whether or not she will follow in her mother’s footsteps. So far signs are good, she gets along and helps her mother with animals.
