Dog Walking Ranson

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.

“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!”

“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. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

“Absolutely phenomenal dog walker. Tracy was professional, extremely competent and caring with our two small dogs, and was very communicative before, during, and afterwards to give us peace of mind. Highly recommend Tracy for any of your four leggeds.”

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.

“Nicholas was great with my pup for her walks. He was on time, communicated, and took lots of nice photos! I will definitely be using Nocholas again!”

About: I have had a disabled dog of my own since I was 8, he has seizures frequently. I also have dog sat for my neighbor on multiple occasions, of which was very large, required medication, and emotional support for her anxiety. I work part time at a restaurant so I have more than enough time to provide high quality and detailed care to your furry family members. If I work, they're typically nights, so I am more available during the day or after I get off work to do some final check ins with the pets before bed. As the care would only happen in your home, I take great pride in leaving the home better than I found it and ensuring your pets health, comfortability, and safety with the information and materials provided to me.

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.

About: Hi, I’m Tess! I live in Charles Town, WV with my two-year-old Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Louie, and two cats, Tatiana and Rudy — so your pet is walking into a home that already loves animals. I take a slow, easy approach to dog care. I let dogs sniff, wander, and just be themselves, whether we’re doing a neighborhood walk, a quick potty break, or a longer trail outing. Every walk is just two dogs at most, so your pup gets real time and attention. I always send photo updates along the way so you can see how they’re doing. I welcome dogs of all sizes who are friendly with other dogs, cats, and people. For boarding, I have a large fenced backyard and keep things small and relaxed — more like a home than a kennel. I also offer occasional house sitting for dogs who are happiest in their own space. I’d love to meet your pup! Feel free to reach out to check availability or set up a meet-and-greet. Fridays are my day off, so walks are unhurried and get my full attention. For boarding, I'm home all weekend, so any dog staying with me has someone around rather than sitting alone in an empty house. Dogs staying with me have access to a large fenced backyard and are never left alone outside. Inside, I keep a calm, low-stimulation environment. My Cavalier Louie lives here full time, so any boarding dog will be introduced to him gradually and supervised until I'm confident they're comfortable together. I do a meet and greet with Louie before confirming any boarding stay. For house sitting, I follow the owner's routine as closely as possible so the dog's environment feels as normal as it can while they're away. Photo updates are sent throughout any service.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly can't imagine life without them. I currently have two dogs and three cats, and I've been caring for pets for as long as I can remember. My home has a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play, explore, and burn off energy while always being supervised. I know every pet has their own personality and routine, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable, loved, and secure while you're away. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playing fetch, cuddling on the couch, or simply relaxing, I'll care for them as if they were my own. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your furry family member is happy and well cared for. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide plenty of one-on-one attention, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. I can accommodate your pet's normal routine to help them feel comfortable and stress-free while you're away. Whether it's a weekend stay, daytime care, or drop-in visits, I'll make sure your pet gets the love and attention they deserve. Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities. I have a large, fully fenced yard for safe, supervised outdoor play, along with two friendly dogs and three cats who are accustomed to being around other animals. Every pet is introduced carefully, and if your pet is more comfortable having their own space, I'm happy to keep them separated. I'll follow your pet's feeding schedule, exercise routine, medication instructions, and any special requests exactly as you provide them. I'll also send regular photo and video updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is safe, happy, and treated like family. I know how hard it is to leave your pet, so I make it a priority to send updates, photos, and videos so you always know how they're doing.
