“Tiffany took great care of our older dog, Cooper. This was the first time in awhile that we traveled without him. She sent us pictures and texts keeping us up-to-date of his well-being. Tiffany treated Cooper wonderfully and we really appreciate her help. He even made some new fur-friends while in her care. She’s reliable,accommodating, and knowledgeable about pet care and she eased our minds by knowing Cooper was safe.”
“Nikki was great! She sent us pics several times a day and our dog seemed to be having a great time which allowed us to relax and enjoy our family get-together. I highly recommend her, and I will definitely use her again.”
About: Hi my name is Heather. I am an evening part time cashier and have been married to a wonderful guy for 16 years. I love to travel and have recently started visiting baseball stadiums as a new hobby. I have several years of caring experience with canines as I have four little fur kids of my own 1-Chihuahuas (male-Jack) 1- Tomcat (Murphy) and 1- Female kitten (Lady). I also care for my sisters dachshund (Ryder) when they go out of town for long weekends. I’ve been around canines my whole life and have enjoyed every encounter that I’ve had with them. I have flexible availability as you can see by my profile. I am willing to meet any potential clients and their fur babies to see how well they interact with me prior to any commitments and bookings. I work as a part time cashier in the evenings. My husband gets home roughly 3-4 hours after I leave for work during the week and home most weekends. I have a fenced in back yard with plenty of running space- stands about 5 foot high. Also have a gated deck that my kids run around on during nice weather days.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, rabbits, and other small animals since I was a child for my family and neighbors. My first pet sitting job was watching a cat and a rabbit for my neighbor. As an adult I’ve also had to care for injured dogs and cats. I love animals and want to enrich their lives within my abilities. On a daily basis I take Maggie out several times a day for walks and play sessions in our dog park. Combining my high energy with my love of animals and the outdoors made dog walking a natural choice for a new opportunity for me. I will care for your pets as if they were my own. I am attentive, playful, accommodating, loving, and so much more. If you have a specific exercise or feeding schedule or ANY specifics that you want me to adhere to I am very detail oriented and happy to oblige.
About: I have less experience with dogs. Only ones I’ve had as pets. I would be great for walks. I am reliable and timely with requests. I have a full time job, but looking for evening walks or weekend care. I am familiar with medications, shots, and feeding tubes. I enjoy walking and would gladly take your dog to the park for a stroll. At home, we have few rules for my cats. We have pet friendly furniture and toys. Dogs that get along with cats would be fine!
About: Your pet will feel at home with me I’m very energetic and can keep up with any animals need and will provide the best care possible. I am currently working Monday-Friday 7:30-3:53 but have a husband that is home 3 days during that Monday-Friday schedule you’re pet will not be left or abandoned I will make sure they come first I have a fenced yard can walk nightly or mornings if needed will meet there schedule requirements. I have 3 other dogs a bulldog and two other small mixed breeds they are very friendly with other dogs and love company. I have a bed or a kennel that I can make your pet feel at home with.

Every sitter has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
Sitters may also include daily walks in the neighborhood during your dog's boarding stay. You can also request photo and message updates throughout so you can see which local landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Buckhannon home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Buckhannon.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Buckhannon sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 sitter 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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in WV ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
