“Summer did a great job with the my dogs. She has cats and dogs of her own and my dogs were so interested in their new friends that they almost didn't notice me leaving. I'll definitely use her again!”
“Madison was great. She kept me informed on how Milo was doing. Milo had an awesome time with her. I will definitely be using her again. She treated Milo like one of her own.”
“Laura was amazing! Kept us informed through the weekend and sent pictures of our fur babies. Our dogs were very comfortable with her. We look forward to having her sit for us in the future. Glad to find a trustworthy sitter!”
“Stephanie was great at keeping me updated with my two dogs. It was my first time leaving them with somebody and I did not worry at all. The dogs came back looking happy and healthy and they loved to cuddle with Stephanie and her husband. I would go to her again as I trust her and her family 🤎”
“Josie took this booking REALLY last minute (like 6 am day of) after we got delayed flying home. She stopped in before she went to work and made sure everyone had food and was okay. Her flexibility to fit this into her schedule was wonderful and helped us out so much. We love her taking care of our cats and the cats love her even more!”
“I cannot say enough great things about Jane! She is wonderful!! She sent me pictures of my doggie Charlie every day while we were on vacation (at my request). She updated me on how she was doing and how she was adjusting. We were away from her for a week. This was very difficult as my Charlie has only ever stayed with a family member. Jane has a nice big fenced-in yard for Charlie to run and play in. I feel like she treated my doggie like her own by loving on her, playing with her, and even let Charlie sleep in her bed as we do at home. I’m so thankful for Jane!! We will definitely be using her again!! I wish I could give her 10 stars!!”
“We were so nervous to leave our brand new puppy with anyone as we traveled out of town but Christina was just what we needed! Our puppy ttol to her right away and we knew he was safe for the week with her. She took great care of him and gave us multiple updates, with pictures, throughout each day! We will definitely use her services in the future!”
“She kept us updated on Iris all weekend and was super flexible with a last minute reservation. We could tell from the pictures Iris was getting all the love and attention she wanted while with her!”
“Brenda is so good with my puppy scout. She always gives him personal attention and make sure that he is safe and comfortable when I am away. I will continue to have scout stay with her when I am gone for this reason.”
“Kimberly was great! She was communicative from the get go and flexible when a mishap on our trip and caused some delays. Hank enjoyed his stay very much, and we will definitely be using her again!”

In others homes i will respect their space and maintain a clean environment while I love and care for their pets
“Duke was well cared for during his stay with Haley. I appreciated the communication and updates. Duke seemed to feel at home right away and enjoyed playing with her 2 dogs for the weekend. He was wagging his tail and smiling when I showed up to pick him up. I would definitely recommend.”
“Chelsea was great with our dog, Donny! We boarded Donny at Chelsea’s house while we were out of town. Chelsea was quick to respond to texts, very friendly, and professional .

We will use her services again in the future.”
About: I offer over 13 years of hands-on experience within the performance horse industry and have been formally employed as a dedicated horse caretaker and groom since 2019. As an Equine Science major with a background working as a veterinary receptionist, I bring an advanced understanding of equine wellness, handling, and behavioral needs. Whether managing daily stable routines, monitoring herd health, or ensuring top-tier care for performance horses, I provide highly dependable, professional, and knowledgeable oversight for your animals. I have had personal experience with multiple dog breeds, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters, turtles, and fish. I’m currently working a part-time job that is 5 minutes from my house, so I’ll be close to my home at all times and have flexibility with my schedule.

“She spent 5 days with my 2 kitties. My super shy guy usually hides for DAYS under the couch when I'm gone, but he came out 2 hours into Natalie's first day caring for them. She's got great kitty vibes! She sent me notes daily on how they were doing and photos as well. And the house was left just as I'd left it, even taking out the trash for me. I definitely recommend Natalie as a caretaker.”
“I believe Britney deserves five stars because she's always on time and very reliable. She always takes pictures of your pets and tells you everything that happened on her drop in visit. She really builds a bond with your pets as they will be waiting by the door for her to come in and give them attention.”
About: I provide attentive, personalized care for cats of all personalities—from the social butterflies who want constant attention to the shy ones who prefer to observe from a safe distance. My professional animal-care experience has given me extensive knowledge of animal body language and behavior, allowing me to recognize when a cat is comfortable, stressed, overstimulated, or simply asking for some space. I believe cats deserve care on their terms, and I always take the time to build trust rather than forcing interaction. I’m also experienced with administering medications, including specialized medications and injections, making me comfortable caring for cats with additional medical needs. I’m attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, litter box habits, and overall demeanor so I can keep you informed about how your cat is doing. Whether your cat needs feeding, playtime, enrichment, medication, litter care, or simply some quiet companionship while you’re away, I’ll treat them with patience, respect, and plenty of love. 🐱❤️
About: I am trained in CPR for cats & dogs. I have been around animals my whole life, and have grown up with multiple veterinarians in the family. I am the kind of human who pulls off to the side of the road when they see a bag or box to make sure there isn’t an animal(s) inside. I have 2 cats of own! A three year old tortoiseshell named Whiskee Sour and a 2year old mixed breed white kitty named Sweet Purrlot (like Merlot). And no, I do not drink LOL. I had roommates with both cats & dogs when I lived in my college town and I pet sit for them frequently. I am happy to service families with any type of fur-baby. They are all loved by me! I just finished my 5th semester at WVU and have the entire summer off (until the beginning of September)! I only have 2 trips planned (one at the end of May and another at the end of July) thus far this summer. I am very flexible with my time. I am great at following any instructions and warnings you give me when going into your home- I prefer crystal clear instructions on what to do and how to handle your babies. I want to give them the best care possible!
“Josie is wonderful and has a way w/ my kitties.. She always sends pics of them and writes what was done and who she was able to pet each day. I'm not the least bit hesitant in asking her to watch them and it's great knowing she is developing a good relationship w them as well. I hate leaving them but know they're in excellent hands when I'm away. 😁”
“Madison was extremely helpful and flexible! Agreeing to help last minute!! It was greatly appreciated. She even helped me out with checking to make sure I turned off my iron! I would highly recommend!”
“Andrea (Annie) was prompt every day, sent regular photos and communication! Our pets got top shelf care and were in excellent condition when we got back home!! Andrea will be our go to sitter from now on!!”
About: Though I have never had a cat of my own, I have taken care of several friends’ cats when they have been out of town since I was in middle school. I understand that some cats need special care and am always ready to provide that, especially since I am hoping to go to vet school and am always interested in learning how to keep our animals healthy.
About: I have had dogs and various pets in my household since I was born and adore any animal. I am experienced in caring for puppies, senior dogs, and both large and small breeds. I understand that each pet has different needs and personalities and love helping to make a loving and safe space for them while their people are away. I am currently a full time Biology student at Marshall University. I can walk/check in on your pet(s) in the mornings, midday, or in the evenings. I am available to stay with your pet any nights. I will follow any instructions and schedule given. I like to make sure that pets get plenty of play and interaction time during the day and make it a priority to spend day time with your pets.
About: I’ve been recommended to many by word of mouth, so I decided to bring my business to Rover as well! There’s nothing I love more than being able to provide comfort for your pets whenever you’re away. Me and your pets will go on walks, play dates, and anything else they enjoy! Be prepared for lots of photos of us enjoying our days together! I am working part time while in graduate school. Ideally, I am available for overnight stays, whether it be for the weekend or two weeks! I also have sitter backups for any extra care needed in which I’m not able to tend to. I’m currently in graduate school at Morehead State in Ky and will be commuting twice weekly until May. I haven’t dog sat in my own home before because I have 2 dogs and a pig of my own. Caring for your home and pets is what is most important to me! I will always be easy to reach, whether it be by phone, text, or FaceTime! I will also water your plants, pick up your mail, take out the trash, etc.
About: I used to be a kennel technician who walked dogs, practiced training, while offering playtime for them and cleaning up their space. I’ve always loved caring for animals and wildlife and want to branch out on my own. I have a very flexible schedule right now, all that’s needed is to message me and see how our availabilities line up! I integrate your pets life into mine. I have a variety of treats and food on hand, but will follow whatever diet your dog needs. I also have the time for high energy dogs or dogs that need training through e-collars or etc. I also own lots of toys and a large crate, or litter box if need be. If you have any more specific questions please ask!
About: I’ve taken care of almost every animal imaginable, growing up we had three dogs, a cat, two birds, chickens, fish, a mini pig, you name it! I come from a very animal loving household. I’m also a zoo science major so I’m sure to take good care of your baby! I have a dog and two fish of my own, my Shorkies name is Clementine and my two fish are Thorfin and Goob. I’m currently an online student, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be home and available with your pets throughout the day. I’m available most days and can be flexible with walks, drop-ins, and pet-sitting needs. The only time I’m unavailable is Wednesdays from 2:00–3:30 PM due to a class. Back at my house we have a fenced area for our dogs to run around in but I’ve also crate trained dogs as well. At college my Clementine is crate trained and I take her for walks daily & often.
About: I am a dog whisperer. They love me, I love them. I can make your cat or dog come out of their shell! I genuinely love taking care of other’s animals like they’re one of my own. I am a Division 1 College athlete. That being said, I have my schedule for the month and I am very willing to work tedious hours for your pet. I will treat your home with the upmost respect. I will consider where the best places to walk your dog would be. I will locate and clean the cat’s litter box consistently. Your animal will always have water! And food of course!

Perfect for high energy dogs - Barboursville
Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
“Summer provided us with so much peace of mind. Birdie had a great time playing with her dog. It was such a comfort knowing we could safely leave our high-energy pup with her and that she would be so well taken care of.”
“Christina was wonderful with Asher. He is so nervous around new people and he was snuggling with her in no time. She’ took wonderful care of him and updated with pictures. Could not be more thankful.”
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.
“We used Haley’s daycare service for the first time and let me tell you she is a sweetheart. She and her dog are very friendly. She sent me pics throughout the day which made me felt comfortable. When I picked up Cookie, Haley provided a sweet summary of how much fun they had. Highly recommended!”
“Brenda provided care for my little dog so we could attend an event on the WV State campus. Brenda was caring and asked good questions while getting to know our little girl, sent pics and updates, and took fantastic care of her for the day. She had a gated yard for the dogs to roam. I would recommend Brenda without hesitation for anyone looking for a great sitter for their pet.”
“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!”
“Olivia is very nice and took good care of Milo. Milo was very happy when I picked him up. Milo got accident inside the house, and Olivia said it was very understandable as the house is a new environment for Milo and he might be a little nervous.”

“Brittany was very patient with my crazy lab. She's clearly well loved by animals. My lab ran to her and jumped up on her but she was calm and understanding. She waited until he calmed down and only then walked him.”
About: I have always had a dog in my family, currently i have six dogs ranging for a yorkie to an english mastiff! I’m experienced in giving various sized dogs medication in pill form. Monday through Friday I am available from 11am to 1pm, and any time after 3:30 pm. Saturday & Sunday I am available from 6am to 10:30pm with exceptions if needed! In a clients home I let the animals do what they would do on a regular day if owners were home, while still closesly monitoring to be sure they stay safe and behaved! I always like to try and play with the dogs before I leave so they’re not hyper and alone.
“We used Makenzie for the first time last week and will definitely use her again! She is so easy to communicate with I loved the pics she sent. Milo was a little shy at first, but she won him over in no time.”
About: I am looking to provide love and care to your fur babies when you aren’t able to. I have two fur babies of my own currently and have had many in the past. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all different shapes and sizes! I look forward to meeting your fur babies and caring for them like my own. I work as a bus driver so between my morning and evening run I have plenty of time to make stop ins and check on pet and/or take them for a walk. My partner works from home which provides a flexible schedule. Unfortunately, I am currently unable to care for your pets in my home due to our young children. However, your pets safety and comfort will be a top priority for me when coming into your home to care for them.
About: Since I was five years old when we adopted our family puppy, I have been involved in taking care of dogs. I have also over 350 hours of shelter volunteer experience in walking dogs, giving medications, and obedience training. Since I am hoping to be a vet one day, I am always wanting to meet new animals and give them the best care possible! I currently work part-time, 3-5 days a week from 8-4. I can usually get away to let your dog out at lunch if needed. Bottom line is if I am pet-sitting for you, your animal will be my priority! I do not have the capacity to care for your pet in my house, but I can provide whatever level of care you need in for your pet in your own home! If you need me to stay the night, I can do that. I am a detail-oriented person so whatever your pet needs I feel confident I can provide it.
