“Colleen was so patient with Chance. She understood his unique needs as a senior dog and did her best to make him comfortable. I loved her everyday updates with pictures. I will definitely recommend Colleen and will book her again with Chance!”


“Arianna was great, our fur babies loved her! She was great at communicating, sending photos and asking questions to make sure they had excellent care while we were away. We’ll definitely ask for her help again!”


About: I’ve spent my whole life around animals and truly love caring for them like they’re my own. I currently have both a dog and a cat, so I fully understand the different needs, personalities, and routines that each pet requires. I’ve also cared for other small pets, and I’ve volunteered at local shelters, where I gained hands-on experience with animals of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. I’m skilled in feeding schedules, litter box and potty training, giving oral or topical medications, leash walking, basic commands, and helping anxious pets feel safe and secure. I’m especially patient with shy cats and high-energy pups, and I’m happy to follow your pet’s routine exactly as you prefer. I also offer house sitting, so your pets can stay in their familiar environment while you’re away. Whether your cat loves quiet companionship or your dog needs lots of playtime, I’m here to provide reliable, loving care — and plenty of updates and photos so you feel at ease too. Your pets’ happiness and comfort are always my top priority. I have open availability, which means I can easily work around your schedule — whether you need early morning visits, evening walks, or extended house sitting. I’m happy to be flexible to meet your pet’s needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always prioritize keeping things clean, respectful, and as close to the pet’s normal routine as possible. I make sure to follow all instructions carefully, from feeding times and walking schedules to litter box cleaning or medication needs. I give pets lots of attention, love, and playtime — while also respecting their boundaries and any house rules. I’m mindful of the space I’m in — I clean up after myself and the pets, avoid restricted areas, and make sure everything is left just as I found it. Whether it’s watering plants, bringing in the mail, or sending regular photo updates, I’m happy to help however I can to give peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is to make sure both your pets and your home are well cared for.

About: I’ve had many dogs in my life. Right now, I’m the mom of a four year old chihuahua! I love to watch dogs for people as a fun side job/hobby. While I may be new to the app, I’ve done this my entire life. You will get the quality and trustworthy care your pet deserves. Give me a chance! You will get your moneys worth. I’m currently working part time, I don’t do much except work and spend time with my own pup lol. I basically have open availability to meet your schedule’s needs. I can easily crate your dog if needed. I have two dog tents and a kennel. I have a safe, quiet apartment where your pet will feel relaxed and at home. There’s also plenty of room to run outside.

I can care for your pet before & after work. I am available at all times on the weekends. I will can care for your pets in your home. I can walk dogs before & after work.

About: Loving dog mom of 3 with hands-on experience caring for puppies, seniors, and all breeds. I offer dependable care, fun walks, snuggles, and daily updates. By day, I serve in the military; by night and weekends, I’m all about paws and play! Available Fridays, evenings, and weekends for loving care. I treat every pet like my own, ensuring a safe, clean, and comfortable environment. I follow all care instructions, provide constant supervision, and give regular updates.

About: We got into pet care together because helping animals has always been a shared passion; it’s something that brought us closer and now it’s something we get to do side by side while helping our community 🥹 We currently foster for the Kanawha Charleston Shelter and another local rescue, help with TNR in our area, rehome strays, and love to spoil our own little crew of rescues! Over the years, we’ve cared for dogs, cats, pigs, chickens, reptiles, rabbits, rats, and even birds! We’re especially comfortable with pets who need a little extra patience, like shy rescues, semi-ferals, and senior animals! 🐕🦺 We have hands-on experience with: • Medications (oral, topical, injectable like insulin) • Anxious or reactive behavior • Special diets and tricky routines • Post-op and long-term medical needs • Livestock Friends! We're also active in the rescue world currently supporting fundraising, marketing, and networking for Krazie Ladies Animal Rescue, and jumping in when people in our community need help with lost pets or urgent rehoming! This isn’t just a side gig for us... it’s something we truly love doing together and would be happy to help you and your pets have a stress-free time! We both work from home, so our days naturally revolve around the animals we care for; ours and yours! That means we’re super flexible with visits throughout the day, whether it’s a quick morning potty break, midday meds, or evening playtime. Caring for animals is already part of our daily life. We foster and volunteer locally, so working around feeding schedules, quirky behaviors, and special routines is second nature. You can count on us to show up on time and treat your pets like they’re part of the family! Weekend availability included... just reach out and let’s chat about what you need! 📅 We kindly ask for 3 days' notice for all bookings and cancellations so we can plan our calendar and make sure we’re giving every pet the time and care they deserve 💛 When we’re in your home, we treat it with the same care and respect we’d want for our own! We always follow your instructions to the T; whether that’s feed times, locked doors or quirky pet routine... We will always keep your space clean, calm, and secure before we leave! We’re happy to work with homes that use security systems or indoor cameras, and we’ll always communicate clearly about access (keys, codes, etc.) so everyone feels comfortable! After each visit, you’ll get a photo or two and a quick update so you’re never left wondering how things went!! If your pets have any medical needs, special diets, triggers, or unique behaviors, we’ll ask about those ahead of time so we can handle everything confidently! We’ve worked with nervous pets, escape artists, and even semi-ferals... so nothing surprises us! We know how much trust it takes to let someone into your home and into your pet’s routine, and we don’t take that lightly! ❤️

About: I have been taking care of animals for about 20 years. Friends and family have relied on me to take care of their pets while out of town. I have had dogs of all sizes and ages. I currently work seasonal and stay at home with my daughter the rest of the time. I have plenty of time to take care of animals! I live up a gravel road that is away from the main road. All dogs are safe in my care and will have lots of attention. I will be working from home so your pet will get lots of attention and outside any time they want with a fenced in yard. I have a fenced in yard with four dogs for your baby to play with. The yard is big enough for your dog to run and play.

About: 🐾 Pet Care Experience 🐾 I treat every pet like family, with loving, reliable care tailored to their needs. I’ve cared for animals of all ages and temperaments and provide a safe, structured, and calm environment. I have one dog, and my mom has another who stays in her room except to go outside. Rover dogs are always kept separate from our personal pets. My young grandchild (under 5) lives in the home, so visiting pets should be comfortable around children. We have a secure fenced yard, pet-friendly spaces, and plenty of attention to give. Whether your pet needs playtime, snuggles, or just a comfy place to stay—I’ve got them covered. ❤️ Pet care fits perfectly into my routine. I’m home and available throughout the day, so your pet will get plenty of attention, outdoor time, and companionship. I work evenings delivering luggage for the airport, but I’m typically only gone for a few hours after 9:30 PM. During the day, I’m fully available for walks, drop-ins, day care, and boarding supervision. My home has a secure fenced yard for easy potty breaks and safe play, and I only have one dog of my own—who stays separate from Rover pets. I also have a young grandchild in the home, so I maintain a structured, safety-focused environment. Your pet will be in good hands, with care that’s consistent, personalized, and reliable. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I maintain a calm, structured environment with clear boundaries and lots of love. Pets in my care have their own designated space and are always supervised during play, feeding, and downtime. I have one dog of my own, and my mother has another who stays in her room except to go outside. Rover pets are always kept separate from our personal dogs to reduce stress and ensure a smooth, safe stay. There’s a securely fenced yard for outdoor time, and the indoor space is pet-friendly, clean, and cozy. My young grandchild (under 5) lives in the home, so pets should be comfortable around children—but rest assured, interactions are always closely monitored for safety. I take the responsibility of caring for your pet seriously. You can trust that they’ll be loved, well-cared for, and treated like one of the family—because that’s what they deserve. ❤️

“Colleen was awesome! She is very communicative and you can tell she cares so much about your animals. She took care of our five cats while we were out of town and did a great job. We will definitely ask her to care for them again!”


About: I care for every pet as if they were my own. They will get a lot of attention because I focus on them to learn their behavior, quirks and what they try to relay to me; I’m always watching and listening to them. Many clients have told me they tell their pets that I will be coming and they get super excited. I’ve been told they see a difference in them when I do a drop in visit to break up their day. I will also send you pictures of your adorable baby. Your pet will thank you for having me take care of them. My job is to make them happy and Content, I will do everything in all my abilities to do just that! Pet sitting is my full time job. Sometimes it feels as if I work 24 hrs a day. I wouldn’t change a thing, I love taking care of all the fur babies, giving them lots of love, pets, kisses and hugs (if they like it) Doors are never opened without making sure they are secure and on leash. I’m very detailed in their care and their safety at all times.

About: Animals have always been a part of my life. I am experienced in making a range of animals feel comfortable and loved. From eating, to playing, to cuddles, I’ve got it! I am a current college student with a part time job. While it may sound busy, my schedule is lenient and I can be available if notified a week in advance! I am willing to clean up after animals. I will do the necessary chores regarding them. Any special requests concerning the pets will be prioritized.

I will also say that I care for the pets depending on the owners preference.
