“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A True Gem – Like Family to Us and Maximus! We feel incredibly lucky to have found Hannah—she’s not just a dog walker, she’s part of our family. Our dog Maximus is truly our baby (especially now that our kids are grown and out of the house), and knowing that Hannah cares for him with the same love and attention we do means the world to us. Hannah has been with us for over three months now, and in that time she’s become someone we fully trust with our most spoiled and beloved family member. She’s reliable, flexible with our crazy schedule, and always greets Maximus with affection and warmth. You can tell she genuinely loves what she does. Maximus absolutely adores her! She goes above and beyond to make sure he feels cared for when we’re not home, which gives us such peace of mind. We treasure Hannah and everything she does for our family. If you’re looking for someone who will love your dog like their own, look no further. She’s truly one of a kind.”


“Kimberly is so so sweet and makes sure that my two dogs are well taken care of. She always updates me on when she is going over to take care of them, what they did while she was with them, and always provides cute pictures of them! She is very responsive and professional, I would definitely recommend using her!”


About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was a teenager. Whether it be my own dog or someone else’s, I love taking care of animals. In the past, I’ve spent extensive time caring for the pets of friends and neighbors along with my own. I work as a freelancer, so I can make my schedule work for any times! While I am available on weekends, I focus on M-F from 8am-8pm for pet sitting. With my own dog, I’m very protective and make sure she is safe and gets the care she needs. That is no different with other dogs. Whenever I’m watching a pet, I always make sure to keep them safe and give them the best time!

“Lisette is great with my dogs! We have an older dog that she comes and walks and he loves it. We also just got a puppy and she has been coming over in the middle of the day to take him and our older dog on small walks and it’s been great!”


About: Hi, my name is Tiersa and my family and I have recently moved from Georgia to come “back home” to the panhandle of West Virginia. I have lots of experience with drop-in visits, walks, and especially boarding (though I’m currently not boarding until our house is finished being built). I have been with Rover for 5 years (and loved every second) and I have 10 years of animal handling experience. When I’m not walking and playing with new animal friends I’m at home, homeschooling my children who are 14 and 12. We are all huge animal lovers and your sweet fur baby will never go without snuggles in our house. I am a stay-at-home mother who homeschools her kiddos. I have a very flexible schedule, so finding a routine that works for you and your furry baby won’t be hard for me. I’m currently not boarding in my home because our house is being built and our current lodgings aren’t big enough for another fur baby to be comfortable in.

“Christopher and Leslie are professional, they're skilled at handling dogs, and my dogs love them. Even our two very shy dogs warmed up to them quickly. (And my cats, who were not part of the booking, also were happy to say hi to them. They're obviously cat people, too!) They were happy to accommodate some last-minute changes to the bookings, which I appreciated very much. I will definitely book them again when I need help.”

I'm experienced with both energetic puppies and older dogs who need a gentler touch. Whether your dog loves long walks or slow strolls, I’m here to give them the care and attention they deserve! I work part time, so my schedule is flexible. I am available for drop ins, and walks throughout the day. I’m here to give your pup company or playtime! I do not have capability to board dogs. I offer drop ins, and routine walks that fit your schedule. I am able to give medications, food & treats, and extra love!

About: Hey there my name is Allison and I am a huge animal lover! I will love on your fur babies while you are gone and make sure they have what they need!

Whatever animal comes my way I will make sure they are taken care of!

“We (I and my dog) love Lauren. She’s the most professional dog walker I’ve ever had. From the first meet and greet, I knew that I and my dog were in good hands. She lays out expectations very clearly. She is very responsive. And last but not least my dog loves her!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all sizes and cats and love them all!! I also have experience with larger pets growing up helping my Uncle on his cow farm. Furry friends are the perfect way for this college girl to de-stress so they will get a lot of love :) I am currently working full time 9am-3pm during the weekdays until the end of July but am local to the Winchester/Stevens City area! I will be working a full time job during the summer but my shifts are only 6 hours long at a time. So if need be I can always come by before and/or after my shifts at work! I will make sure to follow all directions given to me and respect the homes and belongings of all clients! All the while making sure your pet gets the attention and love they deserve!

About: With 15 years as a veterinary technician and hospital manager, plus several years managing a doggie daycare and boarding facility, I’ve had the joy of caring for pets of all kinds—birds, ferrets, cats, dogs, and even fish. I’m passionate about making each pet’s care personal and comfortable, treating them like family while giving you peace of mind. I’d love to help ensure your beloved companion gets the attention, love, and care they deserve. I'm currently available full time for pet care and walks and will have plenty of time for the care you need for your fur babies. I will follow all instructions left by you to properly care for your animals in your home and make plenty of time for cuddle sessions too.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of different breeds since I was young. I love dogs and have a blue heeler named Ruger. I’ve had family and friends that have relied on me to pet sit over the years. I currently work full time and I’m home in the evenings by 5 usually. Overnight boarding would be simple as I am home every evening. My yard is not fenced in but I have about an acre. My blue heeler Ruger is always looking for a play date! I can crate your dog if needed as well.

About: I've taken care of friends and families dogs for years. Ranging from young pups all the way to sickly elderly boys that required medicinal care daily. I've also raised and cared for all 3 of my puppies. Im not currently working so I can walk your pup almost any time you need me too. I can walk as far or as long as necessary for your pup to be satisfied, as well as any type or size of dog I've always loved dogs, i've never met a dog that I was unable to form some sort of a connection to and get to be comfortable with me. In most cases it seems like dogs are pulled to me and its effortless for me.

About: Thank you so much for taking the time to view my profile☺️ I am a stay at home mom looking to fill her days with some four legged lovin, i am usually available due to me being at home so being available would typically not be an issue! I am VERY well experienced in caring for dogs and cats. I have cared for a variety of animals ranging from senior animals that require round the clock care, to week old puppies needing constant feeding and cuddles, ive cared for sick dogs needing medication, and ive cared for energetic dogs needing someone to run around and tire them out! I have loved and owned dogs my whole life and now that i am an adult i love them even more! My kids share that same love for animals, and we promise to love your sweet baby and treat them like our own🥰 I care for animals full time, so i’m very flexible when it comes to availability! Im always willing to make things work and find a way to help you in caring for your pet! Safety is my number one priority ALWAYS! I will always make sure your pet is safe, happy, and comfortable! I always make sure doors and windows stay closed to prevent an escape, im very diligent in security! I do not have a completely fenced in yard, so i will always make sure to securely walk your dog.

About: I’ve had lots of pets ever since I was young. I started independently taking care of them around 13 and worked at a veterinarian hospital as a kennel technician from 15-17 where I took care of dogs and cats. My job was to take them outside to potty, play with them, feed them, bathe them, etc. I’ve also pet sit for my friends and neighbors pets from Great Danes and pit bulls to wiener dogs and cats. I’m currently in the Air National Guard and work a few days a month. Aside from that I work part time at Lowe’s so I’m home most of the time! I’m flexible to the kind of care and rules you would like me to abide by for your pet. I will treat them like their my own and give them lots of love!

“Linda did a great job and was very patient with our dogs. One of our dogs was a recently adopted dog so she was still very skittish and scared of people. Even though Linda have tried hard to make it work, it was just not a good fit (due to our dog's difficulty with new people) so we will be looking for another solution for future pet sitting. We would definitely recommend Linda to others!”


About: Having pets all growing up, not only has allowed me to understand the importance of being responsible for animals but the magical bond that comes with it. Now as an adult having two dogs of my own, my love of caring for animals has led me to expand those opportunities. I have been caring for animals of friends and family for the past 3 years in dog sitting/care, dog walking, and house sitting. Pet care has become a passion I love doing from dog walking, sitting, exercising, pet-friendly activities, etc. I can't wait to meet your pup! I work part-time as a before and after-school care provider for Parks and Rec. Luckily, this allows me a broad time frame of free hours throughout the day. Tuesday-Friday: 10 am-3 pm and Saturday-Sunday: 10 am-7 pm I am available to spend time with your pup! I live around a lot of parks, trails, and hiking spots so our dogs are always on an adventure. Any free time I get, chances, are I am outside spending it with my dogs. I have two dogs of my own, a beagle and a golden doodle which are both boys. They are the sweetest, most friendly, and most playful pups! I live on 4 acres of land with a dividing fence. I would describe it as a pretty rural setting with lots of lands and up off the road. Plenty of room for them to run around inside and outside of the house with a lead attachment out back in case running away is an issue. It is important to provide the space and comfort your pups needs!

Audrey B.
“I can’t recommend Audrey B. enough as a pet sitter and dog walker! She is one of the most compassionate, responsible, and attentive people I know—especially when it comes to animals. Audrey has a natural ability to connect with pets and treat them like family. Whether it’s a playful pup or a shy senior cat, she’s always patient, gentle, and tuned in to their needs. I’ve seen firsthand how much love and care she puts into every interaction, from long walks to cuddles on the couch. She’s the kind of person who notices the little things—if your dog seems a little off or your cat needs some extra attention, Audrey will catch it and respond with care. Plus, she’s incredibly reliable and communicative, so you’ll always know your pet is in safe hands. If you’re looking for someone to care for your pet like you would, Audrey is absolutely the one to call. Your furry family members will be in the best hands!”

Katie R.
“For over 20 years Katie has been taking loving care of pets as a veterinary technician and doggy day care manager. Katie absolutely loves all animals big an small, she has taken care of my 2 Pups and 5 Kitties many times over the years, and still does, even though it’s only one Pup now. Katie, herself had 4 Pups, 1 Kitty, 2 ferrets and 2 fish at one point, now she has 2 pups, and has always gone above and beyond with the care of her pets. Katie has always taken her responsibility as a pet caregiver extremely seriously. Any furry friend will be in excellent hands with Katie, I would not hesitate to recommend her as a loving, kind, compassionate person who has been in love with all our furry friends ever since I was fortunate to get to know her, and knows exactly when any pet needs to visit a veterinarian. Please give her the opportunity to care for your loved furry friends, you will not be disappointed.”
