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!

“Alicia has been walking my dog for me for the past three weeks, and she has been great! She is very reliable, responds quickly, and sends pictures after every visit. We will definitely continue to use her!”

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.

“Bethany did an amazing job! I was in need with very little notice and Bethany accepted the job and made it so easy. My pet was taken care of and I didn’t have to worry. I would recommend her a thousand times!”


About: What sets me apart is my experience, reliability, and genuine love for dogs. I’m a 21-year-old exercise physiology student who loves being active and outdoors—walking dogs is the perfect combo! I’ve dog sat and walked for many families and have two Australian Shepherds of my own, Georgia and Ruby, who I miss dearly while at school. I’ve also volunteered with hospice patients and babysat my whole life, so I’m comfortable with responsibility and care. Whether your dog is playful, shy, young, or senior—I’ll treat them like family! Pet care fits perfectly into my weekly routine! I’m a senior at WVU with a flexible internship and classes only a few days a week. I’m available Tuesday and Thursday after 11, Wednesdays until 3, Fridays until 2, and weekends until 3. I love being outside and staying active, so walking and caring for dogs is something I truly enjoy and easily make time for in my schedule. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I treat them like family. I always prioritize their routine, comfort, and safety—whether that means sticking to their feeding schedule, giving them plenty of outdoor time, or just being a calming presence. I make sure they get lots of love, attention, and exercise, especially since I enjoy being active myself. I also keep pet parents updated with photos and messages so they know their furry friend is in good hands!

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.

Olivia S.
“I can’t recommend Olivia S. enough—she is truly one of a kind when it comes to caring for animals. As her best friend, I’ve seen firsthand how naturally she connects with pets of all kinds. Whether it's a high-energy pup who needs lots of playtime or a shy kitty who needs patience and gentleness, Olivia knows exactly how to make them feel safe, loved, and happy. She’s the kind of person who always stops to greet dogs on the street (and somehow remembers their names better than the humans!), and she treats every animal like a part of her own family.

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.”


Jessica C.
“Jess has taken care of my pups several times and is truly an awesome pet sitter and animal lover! I would not hesitate to entrust her with their care. In addition to dogs and cats, Jess has worked with farm animals and birds too!”
