“We used Makenzie for the first time last week and will definitely use her again! She is so easy to communicate with I loved the pics she sent. Milo was a little shy at first, but she won him over in no time.”
About: I used to be a kennel technician who walked dogs, practiced training, while offering playtime for them and cleaning up their space. I’ve always loved caring for animals and wildlife and want to branch out on my own. I’m also a college student currently! I have a very flexible schedule right now, all that’s needed is to message me and see how our availabilities line up! I integrate your pets life into mine. I have a variety of treats and food on hand, but will follow whatever diet your dog needs. I also have the time for high energy dogs or dogs that need training through e-collars or etc. I also own lots of toys and a large crate, or litter box if need be. If you have any more specific questions please ask!
“I loved that she came ready to discuss and write down all details about the dogs. She’s prompt, communicative, and my dogs took right to her. It’s been hard to find someone reliable and consistent and I’ve found that in Brittany.”
About: I am looking to provide love and care to your fur babies when you aren’t able to. I have two fur babies of my own currently and have had many in the past. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all different shapes and sizes! I look forward to meeting your fur babies and caring for them like my own. I work as a bus driver so between my morning and evening run I have plenty of time to make stop ins and check on pet and/or take them for a walk. My partner works from home which provides a flexible schedule. Unfortunately, I am currently unable to care for your pets in my home due to our young children. However, your pets safety and comfort will be a top priority for me when coming into your home to care for them.
About: I am the biggest animal lover! Everyone I know has relied on me to take care of their beloved fur-babies and you guys should too! I am new to Rover, but not new to animal care! I have had animals my whole life and pride myself in giving the best care. I currently am a high school social studies teacher. As an animal lover, however, I am very much looking forward to incorporating pet care into my daily schedule! I have had pets my whole life and can’t wait to meet your fur-babies! I live in an apartment with two cats—Princess and Lilly. I would be happy to provide in home boarding for your cats or drop in visits! My cats are a little indifferent on dogs, however, so it would take a meet and greet before deciding on boarding a dog! With that being said, I can do walks and drop ins before and after school and on weekends. I will be happy to help in whatever way I can!
About: I am trained in CPR for cats & dogs. I have been around animals my whole life, and have grown up with multiple veterinarians in the family. I am the kind of human who pulls off to the side of the road when they see a bag or box to make sure there isn’t an animal(s) inside. I have 2 cats of own! A three year old tortoiseshell named Whiskee Sour and a 2year old mixed breed white kitty named Sweet Purrlot (like Merlot). And no, I do not drink LOL. I had roommates with both cats & dogs when I lived in my college town and I pet sit for them frequently. I am happy to service families with any type of fur-baby. They are all loved by me! I just finished my 5th semester at WVU and have the entire summer off (until the beginning of September)! I only have 2 trips planned (one at the end of May and another at the end of July) thus far this summer. I am very flexible with my time. I am great at following any instructions and warnings you give me when going into your home- I prefer crystal clear instructions on what to do and how to handle your babies. I want to give them the best care possible!
About: I’ve taken care of my household dogs for 18 years. Sadly due to my father’s allergies I haven’t been able to have a cat. But have been around them in any chance I can get and have experience caring for them. I’m working part time but would love to make room for taking care of your pets. I also volunteer at St Mary’s but will do my best to fit your animal into my schedule. I can’t care for pets in my own home due to my family not wanting to be around pets at the moment. But I would love to branch out to other homes to care for your pets.
About: Since I was five years old when we adopted our family puppy, I have been involved in taking care of dogs. I have also over 350 hours of shelter volunteer experience in walking dogs, giving medications, and obedience training. Since I am hoping to be a vet one day, I am always wanting to meet new animals and give them the best care possible! I am currently a full-time student at Carleton and thus have classes and other extracurricular activities throughout the day. However, I have chunks of time throughout the day that could be devoted to pet care. If I am pet-sitting for you, your animal will be my priority! I do not have the capacity to care for your pet in my house, but I can provide whatever level of care you need in for your pet in your own home! If you need me to stay the night, I can do that. I am a detail-oriented person so whatever your pet needs I feel confident I can provide it.
About: Experienced pet sitter who lives on a spacious farm with a fenced in yard. I love all pets and love to care for them in your home or mine. I know how to handle pets who require medical care from giving meds to vet visits. I have pets in my home who are curious and loving to both cats and dogs. Let me be your pet’s new best friend and care giver! I work part time from home and have plenty of time to care for your pets but where you need it. I’m flexible with my time to fit your needs. I have a fenced in yard which my pup loves to spend hours in. My house has plenty of space for all sizes of pets to feel comfortable. I have one dog and one cat in the home who are friendly and multiple farm animals on the property. For care in your home, I’m available to do walks, have play time, and provide for their various needs.
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life. I have a cat whom I rescued several years ago. I’ve cared for several dogs and I’m great at keeping animals comfortable and feeling loved! I work full-time but I am available most weekends and evenings. If need be, I can leave during my lunch break to provide your pet with a quick potty break! I am sure to follow the rules of each owner since they know what’s best. I am a huge cuddler, so if your dog or cat needs some extra love, you can count on me. I’ve also had experience with admistering medication to dogs as well.
About: I have had my own dog for the last five years. Before that I have watched dogs for different people in my family while also house sitting. All of these dogs have been big dogs, though mine is a medium sized dog. I am currently not working so I can typically help with pet care at any time of the week. I go back to college at the end of august, so around that time my schedule will change a bit but I should be good every weekend and most afternoons. I take my dog on at least five walks every day. She gets a treat whenever she is done. I also have a large crate that I put her in for when we leave. My dog also has multiple stuffed animals she enjoys playing with.
About: I have cared for several cats and dogs in my home as well as in others for 15 years. I am a mother of three with lots of love, attention & cuddles to share with your fur-babies! I currently work from home 3 days each week and as a mom of 3, am home most weekends to help take care of your fur-babies:) I live in a very safe neighborhood for long walks and have a large backyard (unfenced) to play in! All 3 of my kiddos (16,14 & 6) are true animal lovers who will also happily love on your fur-babies while visiting our home!
About: Growing up, my mother ran a doggy day care out of her home and I often assisted her. I have much experience in caring for animals and also handling behavioral problems. I am currently unemployed as I am preparing to begin my student teaching through Marshall this fall. My schedule is open, other than putting time aside to care for my own furry friends. I feel it is important to constantly ensure that the animal being cared for is comfortable. I plan to reassure your furry friends with positive reinforcement and playfulness. I also plan to uphold quality and safe measures while with the animals. I will make it a priority to send you pictures of your furry friend during my visit!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Barboursville on Rover is $16.65 per walk (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 167 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Barboursville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Barboursville. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Barboursville.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
