About: I am an ANIMAL LOVER who grew up with a veterinarian. I've been taking care of my own or other's pets most of my life. Experienced in all types of animal care (domestic & farm) I treat all animals as if they were my own. I have a passion for the care of senior or special needs pets. Medications, special feedings, vision & hearing impaired, anxious pets will all be attended to with experienced and loving care. I have years of in-home pet care experience and can also attend to routine details like watering & mail. It's my goal to make your pet feel happy, loved and safe in my care. I am available for morning, evening & overnight pet care any day of the week. I'm available for pet care any time of the day on weekends, holidays and some weekdays. I have a very flexible schedule. I care for all pets as if they were my own whether it's in the client's home or in my own home. I communicate with the client's always letting them know how their pet's are doing while they are gone. It's my goal to make every pet feel loved and safe in my care.
“First time subscribing and this is a life saver! Madison is awesome with interactive walks and gives thorough report of waking distance and potty details. Highly recommend Rover specially Madison”
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! :-)
“Nancy was so conscientious and has a warmth that both people and animals relate to. I was 100% confident that Pepper would be well taken care of in her capable hands.”
“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: I have taken care of animals (horses, chickens, cats, dogs, fish, alpacas, pigs, etc.) at multiple houses and farms. I was always the one people would turn to when it came to taking care of their household of animals when they were away. I am in the process of becoming a dog trainer as well as groomer! I've had experience with giving animals shots, pills and liquid medication as well as care after surgeries. Since I am self employed that gives me more open time to play, walk and care for the animals. Currently I own 2 cats and 2 dogs that live with me, I will need a few times a day to let them out a couple times a day. In my home I have a dedicated animal room that has beds, crates, a dog couch, lots of sunlight and a deck for the dogs to hang out on. I also have a pen that I can use if there are dogs or puppies that cannot hold their bladder and have frequent accidents. Blankets and toys galore for the dogs anytime they need them. There is a large yard for the dogs to roam around in or hiking areas for us to walk on. In your home I will make sure to take care of your lovely pet as I would with any of mine! Cuddles and snuggles as well as springs and tug-of-war, whatever activity the animals need to get their energy out as well as keeping them feeling safe and happy. The directions given to me from you will be taken to heart. Feeding, walking and sleeping schedules will be upheld to a T.
“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: I am a licensed veterinary technician who has worked in the animal welfare field for more than 20 years. I am the go to pet sitter for friends and family as I treat your pet as if it was my own. I am a responsible adult who follows instructions and understands the importance of communication while you are away from your pet! I work from home so am available to take your dog on walks, check in on pets as needed, or host animals in my home. I have two very friendly dogs and 2 cats who are happy to share their home with other pets. I take my dogs for at least one long off leash hike daily and happy to do so for your pet as well. I have a fully fenced yard for dogs to romp in and also happy to go for leashed or unleashed (once they know me) walks. I am happy to give medications to pets and am a licensed veterinary technician so familiar with most meds.

About: I am a pet lover, 5-star dog walker, and pet owner who will take outstanding care of your animal family, as well as your home. I am ethical, respectful and reliable - and will be at your house even in bad weather. I have years of experience with caring for fish, large dogs, horses & livestock, as well as small animals such as rats, ferrets and guinea pigs. I will maintain contact with you throughout your absence, by providing daily/per visit updates and photos. So, if you live in the Harpers Ferry, Charles Town, Ranson, Martinsburg area, or in any of the areas between those locations and would like more information, please reach out to me through this website. I am happy to provide a custom estimate, or schedule a consultation. Please note the following: I will make adjustments to my daily rate/per visit rate for multiple pets, so if you have more than 2 pets, please reach out to me for custom pricing, as I do not want to overcharge, and the Rover pricing may become confusing. As a general rule, the more pets you have, the lower the per/pet rate will be. Additionally, I do not charge extra for cats, or small animals that live within the home of dogs that I have been booked to walk, drop in on, or provide daily care to. My cancellation policy is as follows: - 24 hours, advanced notice - Full Refund - Day of Cancellations - $14 convenience fee will be charged, to make up for lost booking space, but I will refund any remaining payments*. *Emergency Cancellations are assessed on an individual basis; $14 convenience fee may be fully refunded depending on the circumstances, or price may be reduced during your next booking. Why I love dog sitting I have been an animal lover and pet owner for as long as I can remember. In fact, there are very few photos of me, as a child, that do not include a family pet. Growing up we had dogs, cats, rabbits and horses. My husband also worked as a Veterinary Technician for 15 years, so I am often able to call him for advice if I have questions, or concerns. Our pets are our family and we love them like children. I will treat your pets with the same love and attention that I give to my dogs. I have experience administering medication and with pets that have special needs.
