“She was very sweet and thoughtful and treated Slippers like a real person. She sent me pictures and updates every day, took Slippers for walks & played her favorite games with her.”


“Melissa was great ! She offered a meet and greet prior to Nova coming to stay with her which allowed Nova to meet her and get acquainted with where she would be staying ! Melissa provided great communication and sent multiple photos and videos of Nova throughout the day. She kept my mind at ease regarding Nova while I was out of town . Would 10000% recommend as she was great and provided a spacious house and yard for Nova to play and roam!”


“Brenda is so good with my puppy scout. She always gives him personal attention and make sure that he is safe and comfortable when I am away. I will continue to have scout stay with her when I am gone for this reason.”


“Jill was fantastic! She was able to help us in a unique situation and kept our rescue safe healthy and happy. She was great at communicating and sent us updates while we were away. Would book her again”


“She was amazing with my dog. He had the best time and she kept me up to date with pictures and how was doing each day. They were even very accommodating when I was running 30 minutes late as well. I would absolutely book with her again if she is available.”


“Cliffton is a polite, attentive and respectful guy who did a great job pet sitting our cat in his house. He was very easy to communicate with and he kept us informed with pictures and messages. We will not hesitate to use his services again.”


“Patti has taken care of our two fur babies twice now and we are very happy with her services. Our boys seem to really like Patti and they seem to enjoy their visits. From the pictures Patti sent us while watching our boys, the yard and patio seem perfect for small dogs without the worry of their escape. Believe me our Yorkie is an escape artist and staying with Patti we have no worries. We look forward to our next trip and booking our boy’s stay with Patti. Lynn & Denny Harley & Matey”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life and currently have four large dogs – three of my own and one foster. I also volunteer with local animal rescues and spend many Fridays at the Dog Pound, giving all the animals love, walks, vaccinations, and sometimes even a trip to my home (I’m always joking that I’m one dog away from a divorce – but he knew what he was getting into!) Joining the Rover community lets me share my passion for caring with other pet owners. I know how hard it can be to leave your furry family members, and I’m here to provide them with the love and attention they deserve. I’ll make sure they’re happy, well cared for, and keep you updated with plenty of pictures to give you peace of mind! I’m currently staying home with my babies so I will have plenty of time to love yours! Don’t be afraid to ask about my schedule! I have a full fenced in yard. Two of my dogs are inside. One roams freely during the day with a doggy door to the outside fenced in yard. One is kenneled during the day. Both are kenneled at night. One is outside full time (unless it’s freezing cold and I have to force him inside). I also have one large kennel outside where my foster dog stays most of the time. All dogs are up to date on vaccines and receive monthly flea tick and heart guard meds. As for your home, I’m up for a meet and greet depending on what you need!

About: I’ve taken care of a wide variety of animals and would be called many peoples go-to animal watcher when they go out of town! I also am training an ESA animal! I work full time, but I am always free in the evenings. If your dog can hangout alone while I’m at work then I will be perfect for you! I will follow all instructions from the owner and make sure they get updates on their furry friend! I will crate them when I leave the home if that’s what you want and will make sure they have pottied before I leave your home.

About: I have more than a decade experience caring for pets from puppy to senior. I'm comfortable administering medication and can make accomodations for maximum comfort. My home sits on the Coal River and provides a serene setting for your pup's stay. I'm currently working part-time which allows me the availability to play with your pup and take for walks. Booking three days in advance is preferred. When I'm away, the dogs have plenty of toys for play and soft places to nap while doggy TV is on. I have a good sized fenced yard and pet friendly sunroom and family room and two friendly dogs that can play with your pup! We have a gravity water bowl and can follow any special feeding instructions. There are two cats in the home. There is a self-service dog wash in town we can use if ever needed in a muddy situation and you feel comfortable with me transporting your dog in my car.

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and small pets.

Whether it’s a quick walk or overnight care, I’m here to give your pet the love and attention they deserve while you’re away! I’m available most weekends and some evenings during the week.

About: I’ve been a huge animal lover my whole life & am currently in college earning my Associates Degree to become a Vet Technician. No matter the service I provide, I always make sure to treat your pets like my own.

I’m patient with puppies & senior dogs, I can adhere to your pets needs, & I can keep your pet out of trouble! If you’re looking for someone who is going to be as attentive to your pets as you are yourself, look no further! I look forward to hearing from you! I’m not employed & a student with a flexible, at my own pace schedule for college, I have lots of time for pet care & such! I’ll be sure to assume your pet’s routine as best I can! I can assure you they’ll be more than well cared for & comfortable!

Matthew T.
“In everything Matthew does, he loves with his whole heart. This is no different with the way he loves animals. He has been around animals his whole life and he made it a personal goal to adopt when he knew he was ready to become a pet 'parent'. His love and energy for his cat Winnie and his dog Max is contagious and so sweet. Anyone in the room with Matthew and his animals can tell his love and can't help but have a smile on their face watching their interactions.”


Sheridan N.
“Sheridan was one of the best dog sitters I’ve ever had. She really cares about the animals and it shows. She sent me pictures everyday and text me to let me know how my fur babies were doing. Sheridan went up and beyond what I asked of her. I felt completely comfortable with them being in her care. I always stress when I’m away but she made sure to keep in contact with me and she made sure to abide by my dogs routines. I will definitely be using her again. My dogs didn’t even want to come home!!”


Chelsea H.

“Chelsea was great! She came over and picked up and dropped off Mulder. She sent pictures and notes throughout the stay. We will definitely use her again!”


Jalin G.
“Jalin grew up on a big dairy farm and has always had 2 dogs in her life since she was 3 years old. Amongst all the cows, chickens, cats, goats and pigs! She’s an animal lover for sure. She currently has 3 dogs and takes them to the vet and for walks and to pet stores!”


Marli C.
“Marli is a responsible, caring, and trustworthy person to leave your pups with! She is great with all three of my dogs (German shepherd, lab, and frenchie) and they love her! I would trust her with my dogs any time!”
