Dog Walkers in Ranson, WV

About: My family and I started using Rover in 2018 when our 17-year-old dog, Faith, needed to be watched during the day. Rover helped make our last months with her a little easier and less stressful until she passed away in early 2019. I began to work with Rover myself in 2020 while I teleworked for two years because of the pandemic. Since then, my family and I have welcomed dozens of dogs into our home. Over a year ago, we relocated to Ranson, West Virginia from Fairfax, Virginia and two of our clients often still travel to our new home for us to board their dogs. I am still working full-time but my parents, Carla and Rob, have been providing great service during the day. We only look after one dog at a time, and someone is always with them so you can rest assured that your dog will get the love, care, and undivided attention that he or she deserves. We love all kinds of dogs and will look after yours like it was our own! In fact, this past April my family and I adopted Milo from a family who used to board him with us. They could no longer give him the attention he needed so they reached out to us to make him a part of our family. I work Tuesday-Saturday and am away from home from 5:30am-6:00pm. My mom works from home remotely and my dad retired and provide excellent care and attention during the day. I ensure that your dog gets plenty of love and attention. They have frequent potty breaks and neighborhood walks. I have plenty of dog treats and toys to keep them entertained and occupied.

“Nicolas is absolutely fantastic!!! Just recently moved to the area and needed help with walking Mick and Abby while at work. As being new to the app and the dog walking services I reached out to Nicolas based on his previous reviews! He immediately texted me back and we did the meet and greet. Both of my pups took a liking to him from the beginning! Nicolas is absolutely wonderful with them, he is always on time and is great at communicating with us!!! Look no further because he is the absolute BEST!!!”

About: For the last 40+ years I've been caring for my (and others) pets. I've had dogs, cats, horses, birds, ferrets, rats, etc... Animals love calm gentle people. That's me! I have lots of experience with giving meds, grooming, feeding, and handling all types/ages of pets. Unless an animal is actually attacking me, I am never harsh with them. You can count on me to be respectful and gentle with your furbabies. I am currently working part-time so I have lots of extra time to care for your pets. I prefer not to drive after dark if possible. Respect and details matter. I will always respect your home and property. It can be scary to let someone take care of your pets. I understand. I'll always double-check to make sure everything is done right, and that the gate is closed behind me! :-)

About: I have been a vet tech and animal educator in the past. I’m very flexible with scheduling, and understand last minute things come up. I am happy to work with whatever pet needs you have! For locals I can pop in as often as needed, I’m happy to be flexible with your needs. My availability right now is wide open. I am comfortable with pets that need medical care, pets that are less comfortable with people/strangers/ other animals, and the less common pets. I believe in full transparency, and will provide your pets with the care you would give them yourself.

About: I have had dogs and cats my whole life. I am very familiar with the day to day needs they have, I enjoy taking them for walks and providing general day to day care. I also own fish and geckos, so if you have any small animals that need care, such as reptiles, rabbits, etc. I would be open to caring for them as well. I graduated high school last year and am currently living at home. I have a very flexible schedule and can be free to provide care most days of the week. I do not provide care in my home as I have dogs of my own who don't love to be around other pets. I would provide care in your home.

“Selena is great! She's so friendly and thoughtful with her updates on how walks went and taking photos to show my dog is having fun. Definitely happy to have found her, and very grateful for the help!!”

About: We have taken care of pets for many years. Our kids love animals, but some are allergic. Pet sitting is how we get around letting kids still play with furry friends. I work from home full time and have a flexible schedule, allowing for variable availability for your pet babies. Your pet will be loved and taken care of. I have a fenced yard and can section off your pet inside or crate if needed. It’s a safe and flexible environment with care and affection.

“Jennifer is great. She came to meet us and Bernie before she started walking him. We get photos and updates! She’s very nice and knows a lot about dogs so we feel really comfortable with her 😊”

About: Hello, my name is Alesia! I have taken care of dogs and cats my whole life. When I was in middle school, I volunteered at a non-profit, no-kill cat rescue. I am knowledgable of the diet needs and differences of various types of dogs and cats, along with various cage animals (hamsters, guinea pigs, mice, chinchilla's, etc.). If you have your dog or cat (or other specified animal) trained a certain way, please let me know prior to the day of care. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

About: Nothing puts a smile on my face faster than seeing a pet! I have pet sat for many family friends over the years- and have had them refer me to others. I grew up caring for three dogs, including seniors with complex medical needs. From post-surgery recovery to managing chronic conditions like Cushing’s disease, I have hands-on experience providing attentive, compassionate care to older dogs who need extra support. I am a baker and work morning shifts. I am currently very flexible on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays. I am typically off my 3pm every day I work- with the exception of Wednesdays. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I treat every animal as if they were my own and carefully follow your routines, rules, and care instructions to keep their environment consistent and stress-free.
