About: Hi there! I’m absolutely excited to take care of your pup(s) and/or cat(s). I’ve taken care of pups in the past few years when friends and family needed someone. I’ve taken care of a Dalmatian baby girl to a Great Dane. Currently available for most of the week at the moment. Especially Monday-Fridays but I am definitely willing to work weekends if I’m not busy 😁 I try to keep my calendar updated daily. I would love a list provided for the foods your dog can eat so I can manage his or her diet appropriately. In addition, if he or she has toys, let me know so we can play!! Lastly, please let me know if your pet has any anxiety. I want to make sure your pets feel as safe and comfortable as they do with you. 🥰 Currently a full time student! So I can come visit or walk your pet before or after school. I have most weekends off unless I’m out hiking. Unfortunately, I cannot offer sitting in my own home at this time. Thank you for your understanding. I have sat for many people over the past few years.
About: I am a medical student who loves animals and loves working with them. I have had pets for my whole life and also worked at the local shelter for my four years of high school, so I have a lot of experience with taking care of animals of all sizes. Currently I have a cat and large dog. I have also taken pet CPR and First-Aid classes, so I will always be prepared if an emergency occurs. I am pretty flexible with my hours and I am based in Charleston, WV and am more than willing to travel a little bit farther in order to take care of your pet and satisfy their needs. I am a huge animal lover and have a lot of experience with taking care of animals and will always make sure you and your pet are satisfied.
“Shelby was so awesome with our cat Shiloh! She is a great communicator and easy to get a hold of when you need her. She was great at providing updates on how our kitty was doing while we were away!”
About: I provide dependable, personalized care that’s tailored to each dog’s personality, routine, and comfort level. Whether your pup is playful, or needing a slower pace, I focus on making them feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away. I also make communication a priority. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and honest check-ins so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to make your time away easier for both you and your dog by creating a caring, reliable, and attentive experience from start to finish. I am currently out of school for the summer. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so caring for pets is something I genuinely look forward to rather than squeezing in between other responsibilities. I also build flexibility into my week to accommodate different energy levels and care needs whether that means extra walks or sticking closely to a medication or feeding schedule. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, crate routines, and any house rules the pet is already used to.
About: As a lifelong dog owner, caring for pups is second nature to me. I know exactly how important peace of mind is when leaving your pet, which is why I prioritize clear communication, frequent updates, and plenty of personalized attention. From daily walks and interactive playtime to cozy cuddle sessions, I tailor my care to match your dog's specific personality and energy level. I look forward to treating your beloved pet like a member of my own family. I currently stay at Home so I am available any time of the day. This allows me to easily accommodate custom feeding, walking, and medication schedules. I have a small yard and a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. My yard is not fenced, so I always take guests on guided walks and trips to the local park for secure, energetic exercise. My pet is a miniature poodle who loves to play and cuddle. For bedtime, guests can sleep comfortably right in my bedroom or use a dedicated spare room depending on their routine.
“Tracie has been a huge help! She was willing to come over and meet my dogs before I left town so they could get to know her. Both my dogs now trust her and will play fetch and tug with her. Will absolutely be scheduling with her again!”
About: I knew from a young age that taking care of animals was what I wanted to do. I started out walking dogs and I then started as a dog bather. I then started training to groom dogs and cats. I also worked at Camp Critter Creek and took care of the dogs and cats and sometimes bunnies that were boarding there.I have volunteered to walk dogs at the Animal Shelter. I can honestly say that animals feel safe around me which I attribute to them sensing my love for animals. I have a German Shepherd of my own that my family and I rescued. We also have a GSP and our little sweetheart cat Vivie. Animals bring me joy to see them happy and healthy. I am available between the hours of 1 PM midnight Monday and Friday, I am also available all day on weekends. Those hours are adjustable if needed. I prefer taking care of your pets in your home since I have two dogs and a cat at my house. I would not want your pet to feel uncomfortable. And a lot of pets prefer their own home where they feel safe and are used to their routine
About: I’ve been pet sitting for over a year, and I love it! I promise to care for your animal(s) as if they are my own pups. I work an extremely flexible, part-time serving job. Very able to work with you on a schedule that fits perfectly for you and your pet! I have a fenced in back yard. I have 2 dogs, both very friendly! They are crate trained for bedtime and potty trained for outside!
About: 🐾 Pet Care Experience 🐾 I treat every pet like family, with loving, reliable care tailored to their needs. I’ve cared for animals of all ages and temperaments and provide a safe, structured, and calm environment. I have one dog, and my mom has another who stays in her room except to go outside. Rover dogs are always kept separate from our personal pets. My young grandchild (under 5) lives in the home, so visiting pets should be comfortable around children. We have a secure fenced yard, pet-friendly spaces, and plenty of attention to give. Whether your pet needs playtime, snuggles, or just a comfy place to stay—I’ve got them covered. ❤️ Pet care fits perfectly into my routine. I’m home and available throughout the day, so your pet will get plenty of attention, outdoor time, and companionship. I work evenings delivering luggage for the airport, but I’m typically only gone for a few hours after 9:30 PM. During the day, I’m fully available for walks, drop-ins, day care, and boarding supervision. My home has a secure fenced yard for easy potty breaks and safe play, and I only have one dog of my own—who stays separate from Rover pets. I also have a young grandchild in the home, so I maintain a structured, safety-focused environment. Your pet will be in good hands, with care that’s consistent, personalized, and reliable. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I maintain a calm, structured environment with clear boundaries and lots of love. Pets in my care have their own designated space and are always supervised during play, feeding, and downtime. I have one dog of my own, and my mother has another who stays in her room except to go outside. Rover pets are always kept separate from our personal dogs to reduce stress and ensure a smooth, safe stay. There’s a securely fenced yard for outdoor time, and the indoor space is pet-friendly, clean, and cozy. My young grandchild (under 5) lives in the home, so pets should be comfortable around children—but rest assured, interactions are always closely monitored for safety. I take the responsibility of caring for your pet seriously. You can trust that they’ll be loved, well-cared for, and treated like one of the family—because that’s what they deserve. ❤️
“Hannah was great, there were some issues getting into my house while I was out of town and she went above and beyond to make sure she could make it inside to take care of my cat!!”
About: I've always had animals from dogs to cats to hamsters. The love and joy and animal brings is something very special. I would love to get to know you and your animals. Currently I am trying to go to school so I can make a better future. I am currently in between jobs because of that. So what better way to spend my free time but having fun with some precious animals. I have a lot of walking in and outside of my home. I will gladly take on walks if needed or wanted. I've got a big back yard.
About: I have had pets since i was born, ranging from hamsters and little spiders to horses and cows. i have also spent time working in a vet hospital, along with taking care of my father’s house and pets while he is gone. Every morning, I wake up and get ready so I can go let out my father’s dog and feed his macaw. I also collect his mail and I have been cleaning his house as days go by so that he will have something nice to come home to. I also come by later in the evening to let him out one more time before bed. I have a very friendly dog at home, and we live on a farm! So that means all the space to run! I often have treats for bribery and trust ;) I also own two bunnies, a hamster, as well as a jumping spider and a cat!!
About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 10! My family has trusted me to give their pets their needs when they are unable! I am a college student, but I go on walks daily and most of my classes are online! Thursday is the only day I have in person class. I have been around animals my whole life! I lived on a farm and I have a pitbull at home, but unfortunately he was unable to live on campus with me! I work at a daycare and babysit back home as well!
About: I have experience with caring for dogs for 6 years now. I have had dogs of my own for many many years. I also help a show kennel with their dogs also. I am currently working full time from home and I make my own hours. So I am flexible with times to help you and your pup! I am very comfortable feeding/watering any dogs. I always follow what the owners want and how they do things usually. I am okay with anything.

I have been using Skye for about a year for my 2 dogs and 2 cats. She has been dependable, professional, and honestly the best person I could have asked for to tend to my fur babies. She is always on time and spoils them all while we are out of town. I would rate her a 10 out of 5 for everything!!!

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Dunbar stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Dunbar choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Dunbar with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and request a Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
