“Kristan is great and clearly cares about our two cats! She did everything we asked of her and our cats loved her, and they are normally very shy. We will definitely ask her to help us again!”


“Colleen was able to check on my cats very last minute after I was unexpectedly out of town for longer than planned. Great communication and pet care. Would highly recommend!”


“Carlee took great care of my cats while I was away on a trip! She was responsive and took lots of pics of my fur babies. I felt so relieved knowing my cats were with someone I could trust!!”


“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!”


“Devin and Alexis went way, way beyond what was expected. If one of their goals is not to leave a footprint in the house (evidence that they had stayed in the house), then they exceeded expectations. And what a relief knowing that my cat was being treated exactly the way I wanted. That is of utmost importance. 5 stars plus. Thank you Devin and Alexis. See you next time, for sure.”


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.

About: I am a teacher so I am very responsible & reliable. I will give your pet or pets top notch care like he/she was my own. I am a teacher so Monday-Friday I work 8-4. 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: Hi! My name is Candace and I have had a passion for helping animals for as long as I can remember. I live in a farm with plenty of space for your fur baby to stretch their legs. I have multiple walking trails and also an indoor turfed play area. I have built in indoor kennels for your overnight boarding needs and I only take a handful of pets at a time to allow ample time for exercise and lovins. If your dog is more comfortable with a free roaming indoor situation that is an option on a case by case basis. I also offer dog walking, cat care and house/pet sitting in your home when available! Do not hesitate to reach out. Pet care is my full time gig here on my farm so I have a very flexible schedule. I like to stay very active and available to pets! I have a lot of space here on my farm to allow for group play or if you have a pet that prefers their space that is totally fine too. They can have their very own space and be exercised alone. Group play will be available only to those that are non aggressive and is determined on a case by case basis. Any time a dog is not in an enclose area they are kept on a leash in hand at all times. Their safety is my very first concern. Do not hesitate to reach out to ask about any special needs your pet might have and what I could do to accommodate them.

About: I’ve cared for family, friends, and neighbors pets most of my life as well as my own! That, on top of an entire summer’s worth of volunteer time at the animal shelter, has prepared me for anything and provided me with the education I need to care for you babies! I currently work a part time job working 4pm-11pm on weekdays and 11am-5pm on Saturdays with my Sundays off! Providing me with the time to care for your pets most of the day! I can care for your pets like they’re my own while in the comfort of their own homes! Whatever is needed of me, I can provide.

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.

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!!

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: My whole life I’ve been surrounded by animals! I even had the chance to help my dad train police dogs! I worked at a doggy daycare and have nothing but absolute love for every animal, big or small. I only work 2-3 days of the week and will be going to a community college for the next 3 years, so I have some free time and I’m pretty flexible. Also I get to use this as an excuse to meet new animals!! I’m familiar with crate training, as I’ve used it on my own animals and I’m always alert and know what to look for in a animal that might be showing signs of distress or anxiety.

“Lena took very good care of my kitty who gets very sad and lonely if we are out of town for long. Oftentimes he has lost weight and yowls pitiously when we return. This time, he looked very healthy and happy, clearly having received plenty of TLC from Lena. Lena sent us pictures showing our kitty lounging with her on the bed and hanging out with her in the yard. She did a great job keeping up with his twice daily medication as well. Lena’s a gem! We will definitely book her again!”


About: I had a dog that had a liver shunt and I kept him going with medication and good loving care. He lived to be 10 years old which my vet normally they don’t live past 5 years old. I am a retired banker and it’s always been my dream to be a pet sitter. I have some back issues so I would only be able to take care of small pets up to 20 pounds. Also I would prefer that the owner of the animal have a fenced in yard as I am not able to walk long distances. I prefer to keep your pet in the owners home where the animal feels more secure and safe. I am free to stay with your pet as long as needed.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life and currently have four large dogs – three of my own and one foster. I also volunteer with local animal rescues and spend many Fridays at the Dog Pound, giving all the animals love, walks, vaccinations, and sometimes even a trip to my home (I’m always joking that I’m one dog away from a divorce – but he knew what he was getting into!) Joining the Rover community lets me share my passion for caring with other pet owners. I know how hard it can be to leave your furry family members, and I’m here to provide them with the love and attention they deserve. I’ll make sure they’re happy, well cared for, and keep you updated with plenty of pictures to give you peace of mind! I’m currently staying home with my babies so I will have plenty of time to love yours! Don’t be afraid to ask about my schedule! I have a full fenced in yard. Two of my dogs are inside. One roams freely during the day with a doggy door to the outside fenced in yard. One is kenneled during the day. Both are kenneled at night. One is outside full time (unless it’s freezing cold and I have to force him inside). I also have one large kennel outside where my foster dog stays most of the time. All dogs are up to date on vaccines and receive monthly flea tick and heart guard meds. As for your home, I’m up for a meet and greet depending on what you need!

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.

About: I have more than a decade experience caring for pets from puppy to senior. I'm comfortable administering medication and can make accomodations for maximum comfort. My home sits on the Coal River and provides a serene setting for your pup's stay. I'm currently working part-time which allows me the availability to play with your pup and take for walks. Booking three days in advance is preferred. When I'm away, the dogs have plenty of toys for play and soft places to nap while doggy TV is on. I have a good sized fenced yard and pet friendly sunroom and family room and two friendly dogs that can play with your pup! We have a gravity water bowl and can follow any special feeding instructions. There are two cats in the home. There is a self-service dog wash in town we can use if ever needed in a muddy situation and you feel comfortable with me transporting your dog in my car.

About: From training horses to raising puppies and kittens, I’m well accustomed to the needs of nearly all animals. Not only do I bring all the qualifications, I also bring tons of love. I’m a full time registered emergency room nurse, I have 2 dogs of my own as well as a 5 year old son. I work 3 days a week so with my son being a new pre-k student, I spend the rest of my week at home. Another part-time job doing what I love is extremely beneficial. I leave any environment the way I found it. I base care and needs based off of my clients personal requests and/or goals. I’m kind and reliable as well as hard working and respectful.

“I recommend my mom as a pet sitter because she is a patient and nurturing person. She takes very well care of our family cat, especially while my brother and I are away at college.”


Candace M.Star Sitter
“Let me first start off by saying that Bear and Gus, our chocolate Labrador’s, are our children as much as those that share our DNA. We always take them with us on vacation. It does not matter where it’s at we always have them by our side and make it work. This year, we planned an impromptu beach trip (14 hours away) and had a hard time finding a pet-friendly property that had enough space for our family of 5 and our fur-boys. We spoke to Candace about the possibility of the dogs going to her or someone dog-sitting in our home and ended up deciding to drop them off to her for the week. I was a bit worried at first to leave them and that they might somehow try to run off or get away, but she reassured me they were in the best hands and would be totally fine. Our trip was fantastic and I could quickly tell the boys were A-ok with Miss Candace. She updated us throughout the trip with photos and videos of our boys living their best life on the farm! They went on several walks every day, had playtime in the building with lots of toys and balls and had comfy, plush beds to relax on at night. They stayed a total of 7 nights and looked SO happy when they were picked up! Happy, healthy boys and our oldest even lost a few pounds while “ruff’n it on the farm” with Miss Candace. She was fantastic!! We highly recommend her!”


Makenzie H.
“Gracie Hogan has had a unique report with animals since a very early age. As she has gotten older. I have witnessed her training not only her own pets but those pets of friends and family. She has dealt with small animals up to grooming , etc of horses. She does well with all animals .”

He has been around animals his whole life and he made it a personal goal to adopt when he knew he was ready to become a pet 'parent'.

Anyone in the room with Matthew and his animals can tell his love and can't help but have a smile on their face watching their interactions.”
