Dog Walkers in Chester, WV

About: 10 years experience is just how long since I’ve started getting paid to Pet Sit but my experience goes back since a child with our family pets, then my own little family as an adult always included our pets. I have experience with puppies and elderly doggies. I am currently not working so very open and flexible to all days and times. I plan to do Pet sitting/care part-time at first but am hoping it works out to be able to do more on a full-time basis. At this time I am not open to Pet sitting in my home as my apartment is small and I live with my teenage son and his dog lives with us who is territorial.

About: Hi- I am a lover of all breeds big and small! We have a five pound papillion that is the love of our lives! He has never met a living being that he doesn't like! I am interested in sitting for any like minded dogs to keep my papillion company. I can assure you your loved one will be loved and taken care of as if my own! This will be his home away from home! We have a child free, cat free, and smoke free home on 9 acres. It will be like a doggie vacation! Why I love dog sitting I have been a dog lover my entire life. I grew up around multiple varieties of pets to include large and small breed dogs, rabbits, and parakeets. I feel any pet should be treated as I expect to be treated! Actually better than I expect, I can fend for my self, they cannot. Meet my pets My pet is a 14 year old pavilion. he is very well behaved and loves everyone. About my yard I have a large yard that is 9 acres total. The land area is well maintained! Your loved ones will be taken out on leash for potty and exercise. My experience administering medication Our Papillion had a major medical scare during mid 2014 and had to be administered several different medications for about a months time! I would just want to make sure I had exact instructions on when and how to administer the medication from the parent! I have also kept other dogs who have had to be administered different prescriptions whether a temporary medication or permanent. Myles take a pill every other day for his condition. I currently work part time only. I will be home most days and every night for your loved one. I can crate while away. This can be discussed during meet and greet. Your loved one will be taken outside on leash if at my home. I feel this is safer and more secure due to my rural surroundings.

About: Even as a baby I have always been around animals, and when I started to crawl and sit up my first playmates was a grey rescue cat and a old rottweiler. As I grew up I became more of a animal lover, showing no fear believing that every animal deserve love and to be treated right I currently do not have a job besides helping watching my niece once in awhile, while my parents are at work and I will soon being enrolling in college part time I live on a 160 acre farm, with open fields, a lake and plenty of space to play. A very long drive way, so it there will always be distance between us and a main road. I also have three pug-chihuahua of my own, who will either love to play with your pet or simply just leave them be, the dogs are fine with cats, seeing as I have two of my own, the cats will hide at first until they know your pet better. And lastly I have a rabbit who is shy and curious. None have any of my animals have ever been aggressive and all my cats and dogs are fixed. But if needed I can separate and crate your pet if needed.

“I’m happy to recommend Kaitlyn for dog walking and pet sitting. She took excellent care of my dog, Benny, and went above and beyond to keep me updated with detailed messages, plenty of pictures, and even a video of their time together. It was clear that Benny was happy, well-cared for, and enjoying himself, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. Kaitlyn is responsible, communicative, and clearly loves animals. I wouldn’t hesitate to have her watch Benny again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and kind to care for their pets.”

About: I am 23 & have owned and worked with many dogs and cats over the course of 4-5 years. Each animal has its own unique personality, traits, and quirks that make them special. Which is what I love about them so much! I work full time at a doggy daycare and have been for the past 2 years! It’s amazing getting to be around so many different dogs each day, I learn something new every day I understand different dogs have different needs, and different owners have different needs for their pets as well. Will do everything to keep the pet as happy and comfortable as possible while it’s people are away

“Elizabeth was so great with our boys!! She sent great pictures from their walks & was so communicative. My dogs seemed to love her and they got to enjoy some time out of the house when we weren’t home for the day.”

“Jaime did a great job with our Boston/Beagle mix! Even though he was a little shy, she took great care of him while we were at work.”

About: I have always helped family members take care of pets. Around the age of 14, it became my responsibility to feed, bathe, clean up after, and provide general ownership of our family pets. I learned basic animal care from my parents, grandparents, uncle, and aunt, who was a vet tech and groomer. I am blessed to have the ability to communicate with animals, especially dogs. I volunteer with three dog rescues and a small pet rescue, by transporting, fostering, making blankets, fundraising, and provide any additional necessary assistance. Transporting and fostering are two instances of high flight risks, as the animals are stressed, in unfamiliar environments, and are usually quite nervous. I employ double safety precautions during these times, and I would do the same while caring for your beloved pet. My personal life revolves around caring for my pets, as their wellbeing and health is my primary priority in life. I will treat your pet the same way. I have a very friendly but respectful dog at my home, but can crate your dog if that would be best. I do not have a fenced yard, so I utilize a secure 30’ tie out. My dog is never left alone outside/unsupervised at any time, and neither would yours.

About: My family and I have had 2 previous dogs and currently have a cat! We’ve had large dogs to small, so I’m open to all different kinds of animals. I’m not timid of animals at all! I’m currently completely free for the summer. At the end of summer I will be entering a nursing program, I go to the gym daily but that will be depending on the job! Dogs and cats will be monitored closely in my home. I have a large yard and an underground fence. Or I could use a leash to take them out!

About: Leaving your pet in the hands of someone else can be stressful, but I’m here to give your pet the attention and care they need. I, myself, have 3 lovable canines and one free roam rabbit. I pet sat and did drop in visits years prior, but took a step back when I had my children. Now that my kids are school aged and more independent I’m able to jump back into what I loved years ago. I have a flexible schedule for drop ins and walks Monday- Friday, as well as Sundays. I’m happy to provide photos and updates to ensure a peace of mind that your pet is in good hands. Pet owners are more than willing to provide detailed instruction on their pets day to day needs. Feeding, clean up, walks, and one on one play time is included with each visit.

I will meet or discuss over Rover requirements for your animals needs and wants while watching them.

About: My dog Sammy and I absolutely love all animals! Sammy is just about the nicest dog you'll ever meet. I've had dogs my whole life, and I love taking care of all animals, rowdy or calm! We have a huge yard (and a very tall fence, so no need to worry if anybody can jump over it!) that we can run in all day, and when we're all tired, we lounge on the couch and relax. Sammy and I take daily walks, and sometimes walk twice a day, which your animal can join in on as well. I take care of pets like they're my own, I just love them so much! My house will be like a home away from home for your pet.

About: My names Jessica, I have 3 dogs a beagle and a pit mix, a cat, and a rabbit of my own. As many know you can only have so many animals of your own. Which is why I would enjoy helping others care for their animals. And bonus, I get to see and interact with more animals. I had pets as a child and have had my dogs since they were puppies my oldest is ten, the youngest being 5. I worked while in nursing school so I know life gets busy and it’s nice to have a helping hand you can rely on to care for your animals. I’m a registered nurse and have been in nursing for 11 years. Although I have enjoyed nursing, doing some type of dog daycare, boarding or walking has always been a dream of mine. So allow me to love your pets as you do and help! Currently my schedule varies, but I work 2 or 3 12 hours shifts a week as a nurse. I have a fiancé, friend, and parents who have helped me with my animals during busy times or vacations. As for my own pets, my three dogs get fed morning and evening. My cat has an automatic feeder that portions her foods out because she has a sensitive stomach. My rabbit lives in his hutch and visits inside at times, he eats lots of veggies and his pellets. His favorite green is cilantro! Unlimited water for all the animals of course. When the weather allows I like to walk my dogs. In the summer I also enjoy taking my dogs on our boat and they enjoy it to the fullest. I am looking to offer pet sitting and walking. The pet sitting would include going to the clients home letting out, feeding, and playing with the animals twice per day, if any special circumstances we can discuss and potentially work something out, and also if an animal would require medication I can do that as well. I’m open to dogs, cats, and rabbits only because that is what I’m familiar with.
