“Sammi was amazing with my cat while I was away for over a week. The updates and pictures she provided left me feeling reassured that my cat was being loved and taken care of. Highly recommend booking her and will be doing so in the future :)”

About: I've helped care for animals since my childhood. Recently, I cared for my senior dog, Ziggy, until his passing. Currently, I volunteer with Mountaineers 4 Mutts by cleaning cat kennels, socializing cats, and transporting animals. I currently work part-time and I enjoy caring for animals of my friends and family. I help out when I can and make sure their pets receive the best care. With my past pet Ziggy, I would always make sure he had water and food. I'd make sure he was comfortable and feeling alright. I made sure to take him out immediately when he let me know he had to go. Some days we went for walks and car rides, while other days we'd cuddle on the couch.
“Harley did an excellent job taking care of our kitties. One of our cats takes a pill each day, so we booked a professional instead of relying on friends or family. She did a great job administering meds, and our other cats loved her too. We have one extremely shy kitty who hides when strangers are in the house, and he was friendly with her! She was prompt, spent time playing with them, and sent us notes and pictures daily. Will definitely book again.”

About: I have experience taking care of kittens/puppies and senior cats (21 years old). Have an exotic pet? No problem! Raccoon, rabbit, bird, chinchilla, etc. I’m willing to take care of them. I am available after 4 pm every day and love to do drop-in visits! I can do home sitting on all weekends since Friday night. If you want to board your cats at my place, I can have a separate room just for them. No kids, no dogs, no smoking, big home with fenced backyard. I have 3 super-friendly cats myself, and they get along well with other cats. If your furbabies are shy, I can set up a separate room for them. If they love making friends, my cats will keep them busy.
About: I am an educator and an animal lover. I love annd care for all pups as my own! I have had dogs for as long as I can remember and often dog-sat for my neighbors growing up. As I am a teacher, I am free during the day throughout the summer!! I am also available on the weekends! I am happy to help out on the fly or schedule you in advance, so I’m here to help you whenever you need someone you can rely on! I do not care for pets in my home but I’m happy to help out with taking your dog on walks or stopping by to let them outside and play with them!
About: I've had experience with puppies to powdered sugar muzzles and from <10lbs to 100+! High energy or a friend who loves a nap, I'll do by best to help your dog have a good time even when you aren't there for the fun. I'm currently a graduate student on summer break with a pretty open schedule. I may pick up a more traditional hourly job on the side, but I'm excited for the opportunity to stay busy over the summer and meet some amazing people and pets while I do it. As I have pets of my own who are a bit easily stressed, I do not offer services where your pet will be in my home. However, I have no issues coming to you! In your home, I will be calm and respectful and don't mind cleaning up any messes your pet may have made.
“Rachel did a wonderful job with our dog while we were away! We would fldefinitely recommend her as she sent thorough updates and pictures. These were very reassuring to see throughout the week!”

About: Animals have been a constant in my life and career for over a decade. I spent 5 years working in veterinary medicine, starting as a kennel attendant in a boarding facility and working my way up to a veterinary receptionist while continuing hands-on care with boarded pets. That experience gave me a strong foundation in animal health, behavior, and daily care routines. While still in vet med, and continuing after, I ran my own pet sitting and dog walking business for nearly 6 years. I cared for pets in their homes, built long-term relationships with clients, and managed everything from daily walks to extended stays. I stepped away due to a demanding work schedule, but caring for animals has always been where my heart is. I’m experienced with special needs pets, administering medications (oral, topical, and injectable), managing behavioral challenges, and following detailed care instructions. I’m comfortable with senior pets, high-energy breeds, shy or anxious animals, and multi-pet households. Currently, I work as a 911 dispatcher for the county, which has strengthened my ability to stay calm under pressure, communicate clearly, and handle unexpected situations responsibly. Reliability, attention to detail, and safety are second nature to me. I’m excited to reconnect with what I’m most passionate about; providing dependable, knowledgeable, and compassionate care for your pets as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work 3–4 night shifts a week, which gives me several full days off dedicated entirely to pet care. On my workdays, I’m intentional about scheduling visits around my shifts so pets still receive consistent, reliable attention. Because I work nights, my daytime schedule is flexible. I take short rest breaks throughout the day, very much like your pets do lol, which allows me to stay energized while still being present and attentive during visits. I’m used to structuring my time carefully, and I prioritize reliability and routine so your pets feel secure and cared for. Whether it’s early morning drop-ins, mid-day visits, evening walks, or overnight care on my off days, I build my schedule around providing consistent, dependable care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication instructions, and household preferences exactly as outlined. My goal is to maintain consistency so your pet feels secure while you’re away. I provide plenty of enrichment, affection, and supervision tailored to each animal’s personality, whether that’s high-energy playtime, structured walks, or calm companionship for more anxious or senior pets. I’m experienced with administering medications, monitoring for health or behavioral changes, and handling special needs with confidence and care. I also treat your home with respect. I keep things clean, secure, and organized, provide regular updates with photos, and communicate clearly so you always know how your pet is doing. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities.
About: I’ve been around animals since I could walk. Taking care of them was always part of the daily routine in my house. About five years ago I started fostering with a service dog training organization here in Morgantown and have helped train lots of their dogs. I also work with a behavioral consulting company here in the area and have worked with a variety of different breeds and sizes of dogs. Even some cats too! My goal is to create a positive relationship with your pets and keep them safe and happy while having fun! With what I do for work I can create my own schedule during the days. This means I can plan time out of my day to make sure the pets in my care get the proper mental and physical enrichment that they need. I’m also very active so the dogs that need more energy used on our walks will get that. And I’m not opposed to sitting on the couch with our couch potatoes as well and giving some love. I have been trained in reading dog body language for many years now. With permission, I always bring yummy snacks and fun toys for the pups to show I am fun and trustworthy in their eyes. If need be, I can also crate your pets when I leave if that is where they need to go. I also always go outside with your pets if there is a fenced in backyard to be able to monitor them at all times.
About: I am a friendly, caring, reliable, "Dog Mom." I love walking my dog, a Coon Hound named Emma. I am looking forward to caring for your pet because I know that your pet is a part of your family. When your pet is with me, I promise they will be safe and happy. I have a couple years of experience with cats - we had three when I was a kid! Now that I have a dog of my own, I enjoy taking care of her. When I am with your pet, I will treat them as my own. Safety is my first priority with every pet. Please contact me if you have any questions about my experience. I look forward to meeting your fur baby!
About: I have been a pet mom for a long time. I have 3 dogs of my own but I am also able to help with snakes, hamsters, and cats. I currently work as a scribe for WVU medicine. My daughter and I are partners in our dog walking business so we will be able to meet your needs. Your pets will receive the love and care I’d give my own pets. I will take them for walks and give them plenty of cuddles and pets while you are away.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, both my own and others. I have walked dogs of all sizes and all different lengths. Nothing beats seeing a dogs enjoyment while on a walk! I am available anytime (7am-10pm) during the weekend. I work full-time but I am available anytime before 7:30am and anytime after 5:30pm, Monday thru Friday Your dog’s safety and care will always be my number on priority on my walks. I am open to any length/time of walk and to ensure your dog has an enjoyable and safe time!
About: I’ve taken care of many dogs of all ages and sizes since I was young and none have given me any trouble. I don’t mind picking up messes that any dog might make. I absolutely love playing with them and taking them on walks. I doordash as my job so my availability is 100% open to any kind of needs your dog has. I pick what hours I work with door dash but normally I’ll door dash throughout the day then come home for the day around 5. Although when watching any animal I tend to switch up my hours so I can make sure your pup is getting all the love and attention it needs. I like to keep a clean house so no dog has a chance to get into anything that could harm them or chew on anything not wanted.
