About: I've got decades of experience pampering pups of ALL ages and sizes! I've been an animal lover my whole life, and grew up with lots of doggos! I currently live in an apartment with my 1 sweet dog, but I work from home so your dog will have constant care. They will get plenty of exercise and potty breaks. I work from home and have a very flexible schedule. So I will be able to walk, cuddle, and cater to your pet whenever you need me to! When caring for pets in your home, I make sure your babe(s) feels safe, loved, and entertained. I stick closely to your instructions, whether it's about feeding schedules, exercise routines, or special needs. Your pet’s comfort (and approval) is my top priority! I love keeping you in the loop with updates, including fun photos or videos, so you can see how happy your pet is. Playtime, exercise, and mental stimulation are part of our daily routine to keep your pet active and happy. In case of emergencies, I’m prepared and know the nearest veterinary clinics. Plus, I always respect your space, keeping it clean and tidy. My goal is to provide a loving, trustworthy, and fun environment for your pet while you're away.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and cats and have a 5yr old golden retriever who I trained from the puppy stage. I’ve also walked dogs through Wag and have experience with all personalities and energy levels. I work from home so your pet will get lots of attention, frequent potty breaks, and companionship throughout the day! Since I work from home, your pet will never be alone and will get all the attention and playtime throughout the day! I live in a very walkable neighborhood and enjoy taking dogs on leashed walks as well as letting them play in the yard. I provide a comfortable, home-like environment where pets can be part of the family. I have a partially fenced yard, but since it isn’t fully enclosed, dogs are always supervised and kept on a leash outside. I also take them on walks around our very walkable neighborhood. I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine and any special instructions you provide, and I’ll always prioritize their safety and comfort. My goal is for your pet to feel like they’re staying with a friend—not at a kennel!

“Jackie is our family’s go-to! She’s kind, communicative, and so good with our furry family—even the very fussy chihuahua mix who runs the show. I can’t suggest or thank her enough.”

“We loved working with Carlee and will definitely use her again! She took excellent care of our Minnie while we were away and gave the best updates so we knew exactly how miss Minnie was doing. Carlee was professional, thorough, and so kind! Thank you, Carlee!”

“Elizabeth was wonderful. She took excellent care of our 3 cats and even took extra time to befriend and play with them. Very conscientious in being in our home and taking care of everything exactly per my instructions. We will definitely have her take care of them again. I would highly recommend her.”

About: I've been caring for cats since 2019 and currently have 3 of my own. Living with cats has taught me that each one has a unique personality, routine, and comfort level. I'm experienced with feeding, fresh water, litter box maintenance, playtime, and giving cats the patience and attention they need to feel safe while you're away. I'll treat your cat like one of my own, providing reliable, compassionate care and plenty of love and attention.
“Erin did a wonderful job with Dakota! Her passion for taking care of animals truly shows. Dakota had a great time and there are plenty of pictures to prove it. I will definitely be using Erin in the near future when I have to be out of town!! Highly recommend her!!”

“Ginger was amazing to work with while I was away. I have a complicated cat when it comes to mew people, but he took right up with Ginger as he known her for years. I highly recommend Ginger if you want someone you can trust watching over your cat/cats.”

About: ✨️ REDUCED Drop-In/Walk Pricing!! ✨️ 🏡 NEW: Personalized Boarding Available! (See Details At The End!!) 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! If you’d like to see more of the happy pets we’ve cared for (and a peek at us in action), check out our Facebook page: Almost Heaven Critter Care WV 🐾 We’d be happy to help you and your pets have a stress-free, love-filled, judgement-free experience while you’re away! 🏡 NEW: Personalized Boarding Available! We've recently renovated our attached brick garage into a dedicated boarding space designed to provide a safe, comfortable, low-stress environment for your pets. Unlike many boarding facilities, we only board one family's pets at a time. Whether you have one dog, multiple dogs, dogs and cats together or just cats, your family will be our only boarding guests during their stay! This allows us to provide more individualized care while reducing stress and eliminating interactions with unfamiliar animals. Each guest has access to a spacious 8' x 6' x 4' kennel, but they're not required to stay inside it. The kennel can remain open, giving them the option to relax in their own secure space or enjoy the larger boarding area. Comfortable bedding, including a traditional dog bed and raised cooling cot, is provided! Someone is almost always home, and we work remotely, allowing for frequent interaction, supervision, and additional attention for pets who need it. Security cameras are also in place throughout the boarding area and outside our home for added safety and peace of mind! We provide treats, enrichment, and natural chews (with owner approval) and do our best to follow your pet's normal routine. Whether they have a specific feeding schedule, medication schedule, bedtime routine, or exercise preferences, we'll work to keep things as familiar as possible! Dogs have access to a fenced outdoor exercise area and can enjoy leashed walks around our property, including our creek area. Our typical boarding routine runs from approximately 6:00 AM to 8:00 PM, though we're happy to accommodate reasonable adjustments whenever possible! We do have our own dogs and cats at home. All of our pets are vaccinated, spayed/neutered, and well cared for. For everyone's safety, boarding guests will not interact with our personal pets, though they may occasionally hear our dogs barking from elsewhere on the property. 🐱 Cat Boarding Available! Cats are welcome too! Whether your cat is social, shy, senior, or requires medication, we'll provide a quiet, secure environment tailored to their needs while maintaining their normal routine as closely as possible! If we don't have fosters at the time, your kitties are welcome to stay in the home as well! Either in their own room, or if they're friendly with other animals, they're welcome to explore the whole house! 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: As a lifelong dog owner, caring for pups is second nature to me. I know exactly how important peace of mind is when leaving your pet, which is why I prioritize clear communication, frequent updates, and plenty of personalized attention. From daily walks and interactive playtime to cozy cuddle sessions, I tailor my care to match your dog's specific personality and energy level. I look forward to treating your beloved pet like a member of my own family. I currently stay at Home so I am available any time of the day. This allows me to easily accommodate custom feeding, walking, and medication schedules. I have a small yard and a friendly dog to keep your fur baby company. My yard is not fenced, so I always take guests on guided walks and trips to the local park for secure, energetic exercise. My pet is a miniature poodle who loves to play and cuddle. For bedtime, guests can sleep comfortably right in my bedroom or use a dedicated spare room depending on their routine.

“This is our first time using rover and it was an amazing experience we got multiple updates and it seems like our pup really enjoyed the experience which is great because hes normally a bit shy with strangers at first. We are a little worried he won't want to come home! A 10/10 first experience thanks to Jeanna!”

“Skye took great care of my dog, Brady, while I had drill for a few days. She sent me pictures everyday and kept me well-informed about how he was doing. Definitely would recommend!”

About: I’ve had pets my entire life and adore them! Dogs, cats, and more. I’ve had experience of taking care of/ petting sitting my families pets for a few years. Love taking care of them <3 I have a very open schedule as a tattoo apprentice and I am free most evenings and mornings. I can fit pet sitting around my job. I have a fenced in yard and four sweet doggies. They are crate trained so they don’t get into stuff at night or while I’m away. I also have two cats who lay around on heated pads and live the spoiled good life. All of the animals get plenty of treats and spoilings! 🤭
About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I was a little kid. Walking and dog sitting has been a big thing in my life. I’m currently working part-time,but have plenty of time to spend with your pup. I’m available almost all the time and will always make time for you pup. I am good a tending to your pups routine. I will stick to your dogs daily routine. I have experience in giving medication if needed.
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. ❤️
