Dog Walkers in Ranson, WV

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: 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.

“Lex is super kind and cheerful and my dog, Polly Anne, just loved her. Lex is very personable and dependable. I highly recommend Lex. I don’t know what I would have done without her. Just awesome!”

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. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

“Nicholas takes great care of my pup on her walks. He is quick to respond and reliable. This round of walks he helped my old lady out with a slower walk and helped coax her to eat some food to get back to being a happy pup!”

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: 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.

“RD did an amazing job with walking our pups while my mom was watching them when we were out of town. Our pup seemed to enjoy their walk every night! We really appreciate all of the photos she was sending to us; we really missed our fur babies so those photos were so special! I would 100% recommend her to anyone and will definitely be booking with her in the future. Thank you so much RD for taking such great care of our pups!”

About: Most of my pets have been trained by my family so I have a pretty good training schedule for dogs. My own dog was trained very early on at 8 months and it was just based off of knowledge from my parents. I’m super grateful to have had that experience growing up because it’s definitely made me want to take care of dogs and even kitties, the more knowledge I had about them grew into what made me love them so much. Their minds aren’t much different from ours❤️ I currently work full time, about 8 to 4:30 through the week but have 1.5 lunches so my evenings are open and so are my mornings and then weekends, most the time I’m available during lunch as well I treat other people’s home like my own. I don’t want my things disrespected so I will not disrespect yours. I grew up in a military family so I am very by the book as rules go that are given to me. You’ll be trusting me with your fur baby but also your home, there’s a respect there that cannot be broken. Fine believer in treat others how you would like to be treated and that goes for anything in life!
