Cat Sitting in Masontown

“Bethany did a great job caring for my daughter’s two cats. She was able to administer insulin shots to the older cat. Would recommend again.”

About: I have been caring for pets for the past three years, earning the trust of friends, family, and clients who rely on me to keep their pets safe. During this time, I have been working with Wag!, and since I recently moved, I am starting to work here as well. I have completed over 400 walks through Wag!, along with several sittings and boardings, leading to many repeat clients and happy pups. I am comfortable working with pets of all sizes and temperaments. In addition to my client-based pet care, I also work at Animal Friends Shelter, where I learn new things about quality care, medical needs, and behavioral needs every day. When I'm not working, I enjoy hiking with my dog and continuing my education. I am a member of Pet Sitters International, from whom I have received my insurance. They offer monthly courses focused on quality in-home pet care. I am saving up for their professional pet sitter certification and hope to complete all their coursework soon. Additionally, I am a supporting member of the IAABC Foundation, which is led by animal behaviorists and trainers. I am following some of their continuing education courses, combined with my hours working at the animal shelter, to earn their credentials in shelter behavior. I currently work part time with a flexible schedule and can change my availability as needed. I have a two person home with my husband who can also help out (for boarding in my personal home) if I had to leave for an emergency I live in a large house with an unfenced backyard and multiple safe areas set up for pet care. I have two cats and one dog in the home

“Erika is sweet friendly, and dependable! She did and awesome job taking care of my cat🥰 I will use her again!”

Kathy R.

“This review is quite different from what most Rover clients wrote. I haven't met Kira in person, but she replaced her older sister as my Rover sitter since the latter graduated from her university. So, Kira followed her sister's instructions on my cat and took several pictures of my cat.”

Howard G.

“Abby was amazing and I will definitely ask her again in the future. I received regular photos and updates and came home to a spotless house. Seeing my normally skeptical cat getting more and more comfortable and relaxed in the photos I could see he was having a great time with Abby.”

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!

“Megan did a great job at keeping me at ease while being away from my cat. She kept me updated on how he was doing and I was so glad to see he warmed up so quickly to her. She extended her visits without a second thought when my plans changed.”

Caroline B.

“McKayla and Christian were great pet sitters! Our cats warmed up to both of them quickly. They gave us lots of updates during our trip and were extremely responsive to messages. They went above and beyond for our pets and I would definitely book them again. They even got them a Christmas gift.”

About: I have had pets (cats and dogs) since I was 10 years old. I have also been able to dog and cat sit for my friends and family who go out of town I just finished school and am currently unemployed. I have lots of time to walk and play with pets and give them the care needed. As a drop in visitor I would come alone without other animals. I will complete all tasks asked of me and will provide safety to your pets.

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: I have been caring for animals since a very young age. Growing up I had a border collie named Peanut, and a frog named Freddy. My parents taught me to care for the both of them from a very young age, and that has led me to now having pets of my own in my 20’s! I have a rescue Westie mix named Maxx, and have recently gotten a kitten with my girlfriend, named Pickle. Neither are currently with me now as I have just moved to West Virginia, and are with my girlfriend back home in Ohio. I am very good with following a pets feeding and bathroom routines, while giving them the attention they deserve! I understand that every pet is different, and I feel that I am great at adapting to their personalities, preferences, and needs! I am a full-time Athletic Training Masters student at WVU, who has classes in the morning as of now, so overnights and afternoon/evening appointments work best for me! As a guest in your home I will treat you and your pet with the utmost respect. I do not mind being outside with your pet if they need a set of eyes on them most of the time, but I also know when a pet needs time to themselves. I am very comfortable around all types of animals, and will have no issue fulfilling any requests you make.

About: I grew up in a household with four dogs, three of them being Great Danes. Growing up with dogs, I have learned to train, walk, and take care of them. This is where my love for dogs came about. From the time I was 14 I was always taking care of and watching dogs for my neighbors, family, and friends. I have experience with dogs as small as Chihuahuas to as big as New Foundlands. I have watched and stayed with dogs for weeks at a time or just for a few hours after work. My parent's three Great Danes love going to the dog park, playing outside, and going on long walks. So, I have experience with caring for multiple large dogs at a time. My boyfriend and I own an Australian Shepherd, so I am also very familiar with high strung dogs who need to get more energy out than most. Along with my dogs, I have 15 chickens. If you ever need me to tend to your chickens while I am dog sitting, I can do this also! I am very dedicated to taking care of your pups as if they are my very own. I am a 1st grade teacher, so my best qualities are being flexible and patient with all of your pet needs! I am a full-time 1st grade teacher, so I have plenty of time on my summers and weekends off. During the school year, I am free after 3:30! I have stayed at family's and friend's homes for an extended period of time to watch their pups during the school year, so I am definitely available to do that as well. I have taken care of dogs who are fenced in or have acres to explore, and dogs who are free range or are crated in the home. With my parent's four dogs, they have an unfenced yard, so I have experience using shock/training collars to control them on their 7 acres.

“Molly did a great job with Felix. He's very shy (I don't think she even got to see him!) But her reports and pictures let us know he was eating and using his litter box.”

About: I’ve taken care of pets ever since I could walk. I’ve owned many breeds of both cats and dogs and have cared for all of my pets through their whole life span I am working part time, so I have plenty of time for visits and walks during any time of day. My schedule is super flexible. I can work with any breed or age of pet. I have experience with both cats and dogs and enjoy playing and loving on them.

“My pup who is skittish of new people warmed right up to her! Had zero concerns about her doing the first drop in. Carrie is absolutely lovely with your pets! We are lucky to have found her to watch ours.”

Ashley N.

About: I have experience in working with animals in boarding and work as a veterinary assistant. I am trained in animal restraint, administering medications, and reading body language. I also have 3 family dogs and one of my own. Taking care of pets is my life. For work, I take care of animals at Duck Hollow Animal Hospital as a Veterinary Technician. Then, I come home and take care of my own animals. I have a female rescue dog that loves other dogs and cats! If you want your dog to have a friend, I can bring her, or if not, that's okay too!

“Absolutely wonderful! She kept in contact with me the whole time and asked about anything she was unsure of! 10/19 recommend anytime!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all shapes, sizes, & ages since I was old enough to remember. Friends and family have always relied on me when it comes to taking care of their fur children. I work as a RN full time, doing 3 12 hour shifts a week and I love playing with my own dog during my off time. I have a yard which my dog enjoys playing frisbee in, he’s never leashed outside at home as he listens better than most humans I know. I’m well aware of leash manners too if your dog is better on the leash in new environments.
