“Harley was the sweetest and most patient sitter we could have had for our kitties. The one cat who is loving and causes no terrible caused trouble and we had to ask Harley to change up some of what she was doing and she was able to accommodate with a smile. She worked hard to get out kitties to like her and feel comfortable around her. She was incredible.”

“Alicia was incredible and took amazing care of my cat Gumball. This was my first time leaving him for a while, and he was well fed and happy every time he got a visit!”
About: I have cared for and been around dogs throughout my whole life. I have always had a passion for animals! I love to run and play with dogs that have as much energy as I do or even just hangout on the couch and enjoy a relaxing day. I want to meet all of your pets needs even in last minute circumstances so that their humans can enjoy a stress free experience! Traveling and unexpected situations can be difficult and I want to make sure your pet is comfortable. I’m familiar with caring for senior dogs, puppies, and dogs with special needs. I currently make my own work schedule and have extremely flexible days. I’m always willing to adjust when needed. I love all sizes and breeds so I can accommodate any energy level as well I have a very loving and super friendly puppy of my own who would love to keep your pet company! We go for lots of walks throughout the day and get lots of time outside. I have cats as well that are very friendly with dogs but they can also be kept away in their own space if need be!
About: I have lived with dogs since I was a child. In my middle and late teens, I was around multiple litters of puppies. I know how to do simple training with dogs. I am comfortable cleaning up any and all messes. I was exposed to dogs with extra needs as my late great dane was chronically and terminally ill, therefore I have experience providing oral medicine and addressing wounds. I am currently in between jobs at the moment meaning I have open availability. I also own my own car allowing me to pet sit and/or walk whenever is needed. I am a strong advocate for spoiling any and all animals with love, treats, and toys. I currently own two cats, Twiggy (5 years) and Penelope (4 months). My two cats run my home. They have multiple cat trees, beds, and rechargeable and regular toys. I only feed my cats veterinary grade food (specially Hills) and am avid when it comes to keeping their space as clean as possible. Since moving out of my childhood home, I have not personally owned a dog. However, my college roommate of 5 years owned a senior dachshund, Slinky (12 years) who I frequently pet sat. Even though Slinky was not my dog, I love him as my own. I love taking him on walks, runs, and rubbing his tummy at his request. I strongly believe that sticking to a strict routine helps with the happiness of all animals and am dedicated to providing the same respect and admiration to your pets.
About: I’ve been a dog mom for almost a decade. Have two pups of my own and enjoy playing with them in our big open yard. I am currently a stay at home mom so caring for dogs is already built into my day because I have two of my own. We treat dogs as part of the family. They interact with us throughout our home and everyday life. We have a lot of wide open space outside to play as well.
“Abby was amazing and I will definitely ask her again in the future. I received regular photos and updates and came home to a spotless house. Seeing my normally skeptical cat getting more and more comfortable and relaxed in the photos I could see he was having a great time with Abby.”
“Rachel did a wonderful job with our dog while we were away! We would fldefinitely recommend her as she sent thorough updates and pictures. These were very reassuring to see throughout the week!”
About: I have been caring for pets for the past three years, earning the trust of friends, family, and clients who rely on me to keep their pets safe. During this time, I have been working with Wag!, and since I recently moved, I am starting to work here as well. I have completed over 400 walks through Wag!, along with several sittings and boardings, leading to many repeat clients and happy pups. I am comfortable working with pets of all sizes and temperaments. In addition to my client-based pet care, I also work at Animal Friends Shelter, where I learn new things about quality care, medical needs, and behavioral needs every day. When I'm not working, I enjoy hiking with my dog and continuing my education. I am a member of Pet Sitters International, from whom I have received my insurance. They offer monthly courses focused on quality in-home pet care. I am saving up for their professional pet sitter certification and hope to complete all their coursework soon. Additionally, I am a supporting member of the IAABC Foundation, which is led by animal behaviorists and trainers. I am following some of their continuing education courses, combined with my hours working at the animal shelter, to earn their credentials in shelter behavior. I currently work part time with a flexible schedule and can change my availability as needed. I have a two person home with my husband who can also help out (for boarding in my personal home) if I had to leave for an emergency I live in a large house with an unfenced backyard and multiple safe areas set up for pet care. I have two cats and one dog in the home
About: I have taken care of many types of dogs and cats, big and small. Dog walking is a fun past-time of mine and I thoroughly enjoy playing with animals! I currently am a graduate student online, in the Morgantown area! I work full time as well but get out of work early so I can gladly drop-in or take walks after I get out of work! I provide in-home services for my currently employer so I spend a large amount of time already in others’ homes. I will do my best to maintain animal cleanliness as well as I do in my home-which involves me scooping and vacuuming up cat litter daily among other tasks.
About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 8 years old, volunteering at local shelters and helping family, friends, and neighbors with pet sitting. Over the years, I’ve gained experience with dogs of all ages, including senior pets—my own pup is getting older, so I understand the patience and gentle care they need. I’m also comfortable with basic grooming tasks like bathing and brushing. Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I treat every pet like they’re family. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy and take seriously. I’m currently out of school with open availability after 10 AM and on weekends. Even when school resumes in the fall, I’ll make sure pet care fits into my schedule. You can count on me to treat your pets with love and attention. I do not board pets in my home, but I’m happy to care for your pets in their own familiar environment. I offer in-home pet sitting, potty breaks, and walks throughout the day as needed. I always prioritize your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine, and I strive to create a calm, loving environment where they feel secure and cared for. You can trust me to treat your pets with the same love and attention I would give my own.
About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of different dogs, senior dogs who need extra care, puppies who need basic training and hours of playing, and calm dogs who wanna watch the evening news with you, I will treat your dog like they’re my own and I’m confident in my ability to treat your pet in the special ways they need. I’m currently working two days a week, which means I am very flexible with pet care, and would love to do what I can to help my community! I have a 6 month old puppy who’s never met a stranger, he loves to play and we’ll make sure they get their energy out. Your pet will be allowed on furniture and treated as my own.
About: I have had pets (cats and dogs) since I was 10 years old. I have also been able to dog and cat sit for my friends and family who go out of town I just finished school and am currently unemployed. I have lots of time to walk and play with pets and give them the care needed. As a drop in visitor I would come alone without other animals. I will complete all tasks asked of me and will provide safety to your pets.

About: My roommate and I have both cared for and grown up around dogs of all ages and sizes and love them all equally! We have both had senior pups of our own and understand the special accommodations they require!! We are quite an active bunch, so walks/hikes are likely to be included! My schedule can be erratic being that I work in an emergency department. I work 12 hour shifts on random weekdays/weekends. My roommate works a standard 8-4 job on weekdays! I try to keep my calendar up to date on Rover and only accept pups during a stretch of days where one of us is always home!! I live in a 3floor townhome and have the perfect neighborhood for dog walking! Our townhouse is very spacious, so we have plenty of room for crates, dog beds, and toys! There are no other pets who live in our home and we only watch one owner’s dog(s) at a time, so if your fur buddy is not great around unfamiliar pups, we could be a good fit for you!

Padraig K.
“Outside of my immediate family, Paddy is the person I trust the most to take care of my dogs. He is extremely trustworthy, kind, and caring. One of my dogs, Duke, is a foster that my girlfriend and I adopted and is still reactive. Paddy takes extra care and precautions when helping take care of Duke to make him feel at ease and safe and has grown to be one of Duke’s most trusted humans. He’s also excellent with care free dogs like our other pup, Cooper, and gives him plenty of love, walks, and ball time. I cannot recommend Padraig enough.”
