“Sami was AMAZING with my two elderly cats. I worry about them so much when I am away, but Sammi was a game changer, she brought me such peace of mind. She sent pictures, videos, and always included a detailed report. She was even able to find my “good hider” kitty during each visit and give her-her medicine. She really took the time to give them exceptional care, kindness, and company. I highly recommend Sammi 😊”
“I had a great experience with Alaska! She walked my dog Luke, who is very high energy, and made sure he got his potty break. She was always on time, super responsive to messages, and kept me updated with great communication throughout. It gave me real peace of mind knowing Luke was in such good hands. I’d absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and experienced sitter.”
“Savannah did amazing as always! My cat loved her and I got plenty of pictures and updates from her. This is my second time booking her and I would absolutely recommend her to others and book her again in the future!”
About: Animals were my first passion since I was very young and their welfare continues to be something I care deeply about. I studied veterinary medicine in college and have experience working in an animal hospital. Therefore I have been trained to administer any medications or special dietary requirements as your pet may need as them. I have been pet sitting for over 4 years now as well and love meeting new animals! I am a full time student so my schedule is not super flexible, but I am available all day Saturday - Monday, Fridays after 11 AM, and Tuesdays and Thursdays after 5 PM. I understand that pets thrive in their schedules and will do anything I can to fit into their routine as it is. It’s very important to me that you and your pet are as comfortable and relaxed as can be in your time apart, so I am very open to any requests regarding regular safety or care routines. I will take care of and attend to your pet as if they were my own and make sure they feel loved.
“Taylor was amazing! She provided great updates and pictures! I felt at peace knowing our babies were in good hands with her care. I will definitely be using her again in the future. 😊”
“Arabella was great! She was conveniently close to where I lived and was amazing with my pup Leo. She also was helpful and willing to clean his crate out when he had accidents. I know that’s expected/part of the job but still can not be fun obviously.”
About: I have taken care of my 14 year old black lab since she was a puppy and she is now a senior dog. I also have a 1 year old german shepherd puppy who is very high energy. I have experience in giving oral medication and training. I am currently in graduate school for occupational therapy and am taking some time off. My schedule is clear and I’m available most days and nights. I take my own dog for three 1 hour walks a day and cater to his high energy personality. I also am able to provide mental enrichment and a safe atmosphere for your pet.
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 looked after animals since I was two years old. Growing up on a small farm in Ohio, I learned to care for an array of species. From goats and guinea pigs to dogs and cats, they all hold a special place in my heart. I have experience taking care of all ages, young and old, as well as animals with special needs. Now that I am pursuing a degree and live in Morgantown, I pet sit for friends as well as care for my own cat, Kodak. I’m excited to expand my pet care services to the community of Morgantown and provide quality care for your fur babies! I’m currently working part-time as well as in school full-time, so weekends work best for me! I’m available to pet sit most weekends, but I can normally be flexible with weekdays as well. On weekends, I’m able to spend the majority of the day with your pets to ensure they receive all the love and attention they need while you’re away. I can stay overnight if that is needed as well. I can easily crate dogs if requested and follow your care directions to the t!
About: I have been house/pet sitting since I was 10 years old. Pet care, household chores, getting mail, lawn care… whatever you may need while away or at work! I am a grad student at WVU, so I make my own schedule. I am free all weekends and evenings, and can always check in/walk during lunch breaks! I must come to you, for I live in a small apartment. I believe pets deserve to be somewhere familiar while their family is away!
“This is the second time we’ve used Christian and McKayla. You can depend on them to take great care of your cats while you’re away. It’s nice to come home to washed food dishes, clean litter boxes, and happy cats.”
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: Passionate pet lover with about 8 years of experience watching and walking friends, family, and neighbor’s animals. I have had pets throughout my entire life and have a special knack for the needs, and care for furry friends. I am currently in a masters program at WVU, and have summer classes throughout the day most of the week. I will be available afternoons and evenings. When providing pet care, whether it is sitting or walking, I prioritize the comfort and well being of your pets by tailoring to individual pet needs.

melanie k.
“I’ve known Melanie for a long time, and I can honestly say she’s one of the most reliable and hard-working people I’ve ever met. She’s goes to school at WVU and somehow manages to juggle a packed schedule while still giving 100% to everything she does. She’s super independent, smart, and really driven—once she sets her mind to something, she makes it happen. On top of all that, she’s amazing with animals. She’s always had a natural connection with dogs and takes care of them with a lot of love and attention. I’ve seen firsthand how patient and caring she is, and I know she’d treat any dog like her own (Scout). If you're looking for someone you can truly trust with your pet, she’s the one.”
