“Jessica is amazing! She has walked Luke many times in the past and we always had a great experience with her. This time we were going on vacation and took Lukie to her for boarding. She was really great! Kept me updated the entire time and sent me pictures and videos, Luke had an amazing time and even became friends with her kitten. I would definitely recommend her. I was at ease knowing Lukie was well taken care of. She treated him like if he was her own pup.”
“Megan was great keeping our golden retriever Midas while we were on vacation. She arranged a meet and greet prior to our trip so Midas could meet her and her dogs. We received daily updates with pictures during his entire stay. And, from what I can tell, he had great time. I would highly recommend Megan to anyone in need of a pet sitter!”
“Tiffany was amazing taking care of my Tinkerbell. She was super responsive and provided frequent, daily updates. I never went without photos of Tinkerbell the whole week she stayed with Tiffany, which I appreciated very much. Tinkerbell clearly became comfortable very quickly in the new environment. I would highly recommend Tiffany with her caring, compassionate demeanor.”
“She was able to watch my dog on very short notice and willing to give meds not noted on my profile as they were only temporary. She sent lots of photos, was very responsive, and it looked like she treated my dog like her own. 10/10 would have her watch my pup again - thanks, Sophia!”
“Kaity was amazing to work with. She allowed me to book with her extremely last minute and kept me posted all weekend on how my Molly was adjusting. I will definitely book with her in the future!”
“Awesome sitter! Thanks so much for watching my little guy, I can tell he had a great vacation and I would highly recommend Solar. Very courteous and respectful and follows instructions perfectly. Would def use their services again. ?”
“Sarah is caring and compassionate with us and our dog. She provides us updates on how our pet is adapting to his new environment. Our dog loves being with her pets. It’s like a play date for him.”
“Brandi was very accommodating and helpful. She provided frequent updates on the animals with pictures, how they are adjusting, and the fun times my pup had with her during the stay. She also was very flexible but precise on what she needed to help make the animals stay more comfortable and enjoyable. Planning to book again on my next trip!”
“Melanie and Eric were so loving and caring with our anxious and reactive boy Walter! It was Walter’s first time away and I knew he was in good hands. They sent updates and were very responsive to messages. Couldn’t be happier!”
“This was our first time boarding with Amber and we couldn't have been happier. She was extremely accommodating with our timeline and provided pictures & feedback throughout our girls visit... this put our minds at ease allowing us to focus on a family matter. Our girl came home happy & tired!!!”
“Lauren & Taylor did a wonderful job caring for my dog. They sent pictures and updates each day, took her for walks and she was a happy pup when we went to pick her up!!! Really appreciated them!!”
About: Hi Loving Furparents, My lifelong passion is interspecies communication, animal care & behavior, ecology, and environmental conservation. I have grown up communicating, training/learning, caretaking, and translating for animals my entire life, and I continue to follow my passion for animal care, rehabilitation, conservation, and helping others learn to listen and communicate with animals. I have recently lost my soul dog and partner of nearly 16 years to osteosarcoma. I have experience learning life lessons our senior friends teach us; to slow down, smell the wildflowers, enjoy the little things in life, lead with empathy, lend a helping hand to one another, and be grateful for the moment we have together. I have experience with caretaking during mobility issues for both animals, using help-em-up harnesses and wheelchairs. Additionally, I have awareness and understanding of training needs when the human is afflicted with chronic illness and mobility impairments, such as helping the animal to learn and be mindful of unsteadiness, fall prevention, etc. My current SDiT and I are working on counterbalance, DPT, crowd guarding, behavior interruptions, and some preliminary scent work. Additional Background of Experience; I grew up in the area with a variety of species throughout the years, from cats & dogs to horses, rodents, fish, chickens & guinea fowl to turtles, etc. This experience came with interspecies management, learning to hand-rear animals, helping animals learn core life skills, assess and rehab injury, hospice care, etc. Later, I completed a multidisciplinary degree from WVU with concentrations in Wildlife Management and Conservation Ecology. At WVU, I completed curriculum including a Service Dog Training course where the dog I worked with (Gretel) graduated the following year to become a certified therapy dog at Chestnut Ridge. Additional courses included Animal Behavior, Equine Hoof and Limb, Equine Assisted Therapy, and Exotic Animal Medicine, among others. Since graduating, I have compiled formal experience working with both domestic animals, wildlife and protection of their habitat. I had the privilege to work abroad in Botswana, Africa at game reserves where we were able to rehabilitate animals, provide game drives, supplemental feeding etc., and interned at Mokolodi Nature Reserve in Botswana, Africa, caring for animals in rehabilitation. I currently work full-time, which unfortunately limits my availability to primarily evenings and weekends at this time. Well-behaved, socialized dogs may be able to join during office work days. I am considering transitioning to full-time animal training, should it be feasible, which may allow for additional availability in the future. Additionally, I am navigating chronic illness after long covid through schedule modification and mindful movement during caretaking. Thank you for your understanding schedule limitations during this transition. Please communicate with me your dogs needs i.e.; whether your pet has separation anxiety, medical needs or food allergies, usual routines that make them feel safe, enrichment or husbandry that helps positively stimulate them mentally and emotionally, triggers to be mindful of/avoid, whether they have off leash recall or there are chase drive trigger concerns and they must stay leashed at all times, and anything else you feel is relevant so we may collaborate on their care plan to provide them the best support. I do have a large crate available for dogs that are most comfortable with crate training when it is necessary to leave them at home. Our geriatric cat Fluffy lives in the home with us (please alert me to dogs that have not been socialized with cats), there is a rescue parrot in the household, and I have a ~55 lb rescue and SDIT who is very friendly and loves having someone to play and run around in the yard with. She was a family member to my geriatric dog with mobility concerns before his passing, and she has experience with older dogs and cats.
“McKayla and Christian were fantastic! They sent me many pictures and updates of my dog. I would definitely board with them again. They even went above and beyond when my dog wasn’t feeling well. Highly recommend!!”
About: I’ve taken care of many dogs of all ages and sizes since I was young and none have given me any trouble. I don’t mind picking up messes that any dog might make. I absolutely love playing with them and taking them on walks. I doordash as my job so my availability is 100% open to any kind of needs your dog has. I pick what hours I work with door dash but normally I’ll door dash throughout the day then come home for the day around 5. Although when watching any animal I tend to switch up my hours so I can make sure your pup is getting all the love and attention it needs. I like to keep a clean house so no dog has a chance to get into anything that could harm them or chew on anything not wanted.
About: I am a teacher with 15 years experience in education working with young children and their families. I am married with two wonderful children in elementary and high schools. We have two cats and one dog who keep our home full of love and lots of fur! I cannot think of a single time in my life when I didn’t have a pet. I’ve cared for pets and tiny humans for most of my adult life and would love to make your life easier by helping care for yours! I am a full-time teacher and mom so my availability consists of early mornings/late evenings, weekends, holidays and summers! I have reliable all-wheel drive transportation during the winter. I’ll follow whatever agreed upon directives given to me when it comes to caring for your pet! I can do as little or as much as you need!
About: I have always had a big heart for pets. This includes cats and dogs. I enjoy being around them, feeding them, and cleaning after them. I work full time for a nonprofit, but have flexibility.

He enjoys playing tug-a-war with me and enjoys having me the one to fetch his toys. I easily get along with animals and enjoy playing and exercising them.

I’m currently not working so I am available 24/7. I am available weekdays/weekends as well as morning and evenings. I am very flexible to any schedule!:) I don’t have a fence! I am not looking to pet sit because I am not allowed to have animals at my apartment! So I would love to walk your animals :)

About: My family has always had cats, we currently have 5. We’ve had kittens to seniors, rescues, sick cats, hyper cats that need extra playing time, cats that would prefer to be left alone, and cats that just need some extra love.

About: I have taken care of cats since I was a teenager, and have my own cats since 2010. I love to play with them, cuddle with them, and give them a hairbrush every week. I helped my big boy cat lose 3 lbs in two years, he is much healthier now.

About: My big sister was a Dalmatian my mom had before I was even born. My first cat was at age 3. Since birth I have been around and cared for many different types of animals. They range from the dogs and cats in my family, my grandparents horses, to the various small, furry, AND scaly critters I've kept over the years. Currently have a dog, cats, fish/shrimp, a frog, a snake, and geckos! Let my love and encyclopedia of animal knowledge be used to your advantage!
“She was so good with my baby! Dora loved spending time with Cristyn and exploring the neighborhood. We support her in her career progression but we will miss her greatly in the afternoons!”
About: I have extensive experience caring for cats, having owned them throughout my life and currently caring for two of my own, Oz and Moose.

About: Hi! I’m a 30-year-old nurse and proud beagle mom to my sweet 5-year-old girl. As someone who works long shifts in healthcare, I truly understand how important it is to have reliable, loving care for your pets when life gets busy. That’s why I’m offering drop-in visits for pets in the nearby area, helping give fellow pet parents peace of mind. My schedule can vary, so I kindly ask for 1–2 weeks’ notice to coordinate visits around my work shifts. I’m also open to overnight house sitting depending on availability—we can chat to see what works best! On my days off, I love getting outside and would be happy to take your pup for a walk on a nearby trail—possibly even alongside my own friendly beagle, if you’re comfortable with that. She’s great with other dogs and would love the company! Whether your pet needs a quick check-in, a relaxing walk, or some extra love while you’re away, I’m here to help care for them like one of my own. my schedule changes weekly, so my availability is variable. I’m primarily available for drop-in visits close to home on my days off, and I kindly ask for 1 to 2 weeks’ advance notice whenever possible to help me plan ahead. I’m open to overnight stays after building trust and familiarity with clients, but those will depend on my work schedule. I also occasionally travel, so consistent communication is appreciated for long term planning. I do not provide in-home boarding or care at my own home, but I’m happy to care for your pets in the comfort of their own environment. I’ll follow your instructions closely to maintain their routine. Safety and trust are very important to me, and I’m always respectful of your space and your pet’s needs.
About: Growing up on a farm, I’ve learned how to care for all pets. Dogs, cats, goats, chickens, bunnies, llamas. Hopefully your dog won’t spit on me like my llamas did ;) I adore all animals I love getting on their level to play, teaching them new tricks with clicker training, and back massages (‘cause even our pets need that sometimes too🥲). Your pet will LOVE their time at Camp Hanna. Bring em over! I work from home and where I cannot commit to a pet full time just yet, I’d love to help you out and host your best friend for as long as you need :) Lovely multiplex townhome on a quiet street. We have grassy side and backyard and several wooded walking trails. I go on walks between calls multiple times a day and would love to take your pooch out on the leash and work on their clicker training.
About: I have always loved animals and pets along with children! I started getting asked to pet sit by some families at the school I teach at and have been loving it since. I'm hoping they assumed if I was good with their kids, I'd be good with the animals:) I have a set schedule 7-3 M-F. Sitting works great with my schedule and gives me time to love other peoples sweet animals and making some extra money I am a bit of a clean freak! I am always making sure I clean up after myself. I try to always vacuum up any animal hair, keep the sheets clean and keep the paw prints to a minimum. I can't stand the thought of too much poop in the litter box and I love walks. These are all things I can apply to your home and your pets.
“This review is quite different from what most Rover clients wrote. I haven't met Kira in person, but she replaced her older sister as my Rover sitter since the latter graduated from her university. So, Kira followed her sister's instructions on my cat and took several pictures of my cat.”

“Jessica was amazing and my dog Donut loved her! Her experience with pets made me feel so comfortable to have her watch my dog that has a health condition. She offered when we arrived if I wanted updates throughout the day or wait until the end and I really appreciate her thoughtfulness in asking. Looking forwards to her hopefully watching him again in the future!”
“We could not have been happier. Megan was a super dog sitter. Traveling to the area from NY and needing someone to watch the pups so we could do a day of activities that weren't just for them... Megan was our first choice after reading her reviews and did NOT disappoint. Megan was receptive and communicative with us. Everything was on point. She sent photos of our pups not missing us at all. 2 Golden Retriever's had a great day. We were happy, they were happy, and Megan, we can't thank you enough. If we are ever in this area and needed a pup sitter there is NO DOUBT you would be our #1 choice!”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals as long as I can remember. From taking care of my own pets to helping others out with their pets, I love providing the pet care an owner needs help with and a pet needs. Growing up, I lived across the street from my great aunt who bred and showed Great Danes. From a young age I remember sitting and watching out the front window for my aunt to come home so I could call her and ask if I could come help her with her Danes. When I was 10 years old, I started my own dog walking/pet sitting business and I have helped numerous families out with their pets while they were out on vacation or just needed help getting their pets outside for some exercise. After college, I worked at a local pet store and have gotten a lot of experience with dogs, cats, fish, guinea pigs, and birds. I also have helped care for horses over the years. I love hanging out with animals and spoiling them like I do with my own pets. I am comfortable taking care of multiple pets and fur babies of all sizes. I have a very flexible schedule. I am available for full time or part time work. I am currently a stay at home mom, so my availability is fairly free, but it varies from week to week. I am pretty flexible and willing to work with your schedule. I let my pets out multiple times a day and take them on walks. I love to take my pets out on hikes as well.
“Josie was wonderful! She was able to help us out last minute and was super communicative! Lulu played with her puppy and fell asleep within 10 seconds of getting in the car to go home. 10/10- definitely recommend!”
About: We both grew up around animals of all kinds. Our families always had a dog and a cat. we have cared for animals from Pomeranians to German shepherds. we love animals of all sort. You can trust us with your baby’s care! We are very flexible, especially when it comes to your baby’s care. Our morning schedules are pretty open, and if one of us is working, the other is off and ready to take care of your fluffy companion! We will treat your pet just like our family. Your animal will not get any less love than we give our own. You can trust us with the affection and care your furlove deserves.
“Solar was amazing with Drako! He was very flexible and understanding with my last minute booking! I tend to get nervous with new sitters but I did not feel that at all! Will definitely be booking with Solar again!!”
About: I've spent my whole life surrounded by animals—caring for everything from playful puppies and cuddly cats to bunnies, ferrets, and more. I’ve fostered kittens, helped them grow strong and social, and supported pets through every stage of life. What started as helping family, friends, and neighbors has grown into a true calling. I have experience with pets of all ages, medical needs, and those requiring special attention—like blind or deaf animals who need extra patience and care. Whether it’s daily check-ins or last-minute sitting, I treat every pet like family—because that’s how I’d want mine treated too. I work from home and I make my own schedule. So, tons of time for walks, play-time, bathing, and cuddles. Missing your fur baby? No worries! As a fur mom, I know how reassuring it can be to get updates, with pictures and videos, while being away from your babies. I have 2 pups and tons of toys that will keep your pups entertained, and space they can retreat to if they feel overstimulated. I live close to trails for enjoyable walks, for the pups that are properly safeguarded with prevention and vaccines for a walk through the woods. I have plenty of kitty toys and scratchers for my kitty friends, so they can have fun and keep their nails in tip top shape. My fur babies have a calm and safe environment, and we’d love to share that with your fur baby.

About: I have experience caring for dogs of all ages, having grown up with them my whole life, from senior dogs to playful puppies as young as 3 months old. I’m passionate about both cats and dogs and love taking them on runs or treating them to a sweet snack. Whether it's a leisurely walk or an active outing, I’m dedicated to providing fun, loving care for every pet I sit! I have classes until 3 PM most days, but I’m flexible and can adjust my schedule to accommodate pet care in the afternoons, evenings, and weekends. I’m committed to providing reliable and loving care for your pets whenever you need me! I offer pet care primarily in my client’s home, as I prefer the pets to stay in their familiar environment. I have a fenced-in backyard, but since I live on a busier street, I find it’s often better for pets to be in a quieter, more comfortable space. If your pet is friendly, I also have a dog who loves to play and is very sweet. My home is safe, but for senior dogs, there are a few stairs, which I can work around to ensure their comfort. I’m flexible and always prioritize your pet’s safety and happiness!

“Went to Fairmont for work and didn't want to leave my pup at daycare in DC for so long. Tracey was AMAZING!!! I may be the biggest worrier on the planet, but she put my mind at ease within an hour. Got so many pictures and videos of all the pups playing and eventually being worn out. Even learned that mine likes cats (I had a suspicion). I wish Tracey and I lived closer so we could visit more often. She would definitely be my go-to! If she's available next time we're near Morgantown/Fairmont, we'll be back. Thanks Tracey!!!”

About: I have raised dogs all my life. A few years back I used to rescue and board temporarily until the dogs were nursed back to health. Once the dogs were adoptable we would set up meet and greets to adopt out. I am experienced with many breeds. I used to have a terrier who was diagnosed with diabetes. We had to do injections twice a day and put her on a feeding schedule. I have experience with several breeds starting small to huge! I am currently a stay at home mom. I have a wide open schedule at the moment and I'm just looking for busy work until school starts. My dogs are let out routinely. They are fed on a strict schedule twice a day. They are brushed and played with to help exercise them especially the bigger breeds due to their hips.

I take pride in making sure everything is disinfected after each animal. I am familiar with a lot of medications and health conditions your pet may have.

I’m so excited to be back on Rover after a little break—and even more excited to meet your furry family members 🐾 I bring over 20 years of hands-on pet sitting experience, caring for animals of all kinds, personalities, and needs. From energetic puppies to sweet senior pets, I’m comfortable providing attentive, loving care tailored to each pet. I also have experience with animals who have disabilities or require a little extra patience and support, and I’m confident managing households with multiple pets—keeping everyone happy, safe, and on their routine. I was a Rover sitter for 5 years previously, and I’m thrilled to return doing what I genuinely love. You can count on me for dependable care, clear communication, and lots of affection for your pets while you’re away. I treat every animal like they’re my own—because they deserve nothing less! I can’t wait to meet you and your fur baby 💕 *REPEAT CLIENTS WILL RECEIVE A DISCOUNTED PRICE* 9/26/25 UPDATE PLEASE READ DETAILED STATEMENT AT THE END OF THIS INTRODUCTION IN REGARD TO THE REVIEW LEFT BY DEBBY THAT WAS COMPLETELY UNTRUE- UNFORTUNATELY ROVER WILL NOT DELETE REVIEWS REGARDLESS OF THEM BEING A DEFAMATION AND COMPLETELY FALSE. MY DETAILED RESPONSE TO THE REVIEWED LEFT BY DEBBY- I wanted to give a detailed breakdown of what happened with Debby since rover will not take down the review even though they did a thorough investigation with photos/video and nasty messages sent by Debby to me. I took on this booking even though I had a gut feeling not to, but I ignored it and I wish I had not done that. I was asked last minute by Debby to care for her diabetic cat, she told me her cat was great with strangers and would have no issue with taking the insulin shots from me (lie number one). The morning of my first visit, Debby had messaged me informing she had birds in the house and to not pay attention to them.. now let me start off by saying that due to a past traumatic experience with a previous clients birds, I have developed a fear of being near them in close spaces (to which she pokes fun at in her review) and had I known she had them, I would not have accepted this booking. I was hesitant to enter her house but she said they were in a cage so I proceeded with the visit, upon opening her door one of the birds almost FLEW OUTSIDE because they were NOT in a cage(lie number two). I was immediately concerned by this not only due to my fear of birds but due to this being a safety risk considering the birds could’ve flew out the door if I didn’t get to it in time. After this happened, I wanted to turn around and leave but I couldn’t because I needed to give her cat an insulin shots. After I went upstairs, I could not find the cat anywhere and after ten minutes I found her hiding under the bed hissing at me, she was in no way friendly towards strangers. I did my best to get her to come with me, I was at the visit way longer than the scheduled 30 minutes to try to make sure her cat got the shot. After I was finally able to lure her out with a treat, I had to quickly grab her and administer the shot.. she clawed at me and bit me several times (photo proof was sent to rover). I was very taken back by this visit due to unexpected birds and a cat who was the complete opposite of what their owner described. I felt unsafe to continue the booking and feared that due to the cat’s unwillingness to come to me that she might not get her shots injected properly so her health was my number one priority, I immediately called rover support to report everything that had happened and I also informed Debby at the same time. Debby was awful to me, made fun of me and treated me with complete disregard and through all of that, I still remained calm, collective and professional. After she had hinted at threatening me, I cut off all contact with her and immediately reported that to rover as well. At that point it was now rover and Debby’s responsibility for the cats care, I felt even more unsafe after the awful things Debby said to me. I didn’t have to but I even worked with rover to find another sitter and wanted them to make sure they made others aware of the trust situation, I even offered to take the cat it’s vet or local cat sitting agency but that was denied and rover told me they would handle it all. After one week, I found that my rover account had been suspended and I had to call rover and speak with over ten different reps in one week to get my account back.. finally after they realized I had done NO wrong and it was all the pet owner, I got my account back and a lengthy apology from Rover. Upon getting my account back, I noticed Debby had left that review and I was devastated by that. I have worked so hard on this app to give the best care for others animals and that’s been proven by every other review just for hers to completely destroy all the good I’ve been doing by lying. I’m truly upset with Rover for not only allowing that review to be left there, but for allowing Debby to even still have an account after her lies, threats and defamation. I hope that no other rover sitters go through what I did with her. With all of that being said, I refuse to delete my account and start over as I want people to see all the good I’ve done and to be aware of what truly happened with Debby. I hope to continue to provide the best care possible for all my current rover clients and future ones, please do not let one woman’s lies deter you away from someone who truly loved and care for animals with her whole heart. Thank you for taking the time to read this and I hope you book with me ❤️ I have a pretty flexible schedule and am usually able to take same day bookings! I’m always willing to work with you to help you get the best care for your animals. I offer the same unconditional love for my pet to yours as well! I love having detailed lists for your animals, especially if they are special needs. Rest assured your animals will be in great hands!
About: I've spent my whole life surrounded by animals—caring for everything from playful puppies and cuddly cats to bunnies, ferrets, and more. I’ve fostered kittens, helped them grow strong and social, and supported pets through every stage of life. What started as helping family, friends, and neighbors has grown into a true calling. I have experience with pets of all ages, medical needs, and those requiring special attention—like blind or deaf animals who need extra patience and care. Whether it’s daily check-ins or last-minute sitting, I treat every pet like family—because that’s how I’d want mine treated too. I work from home and I make my own schedule. So, tons of time for walks, play-time, bathing, and cuddles. Missing your fur baby? No worries! As a fur mom, I know how reassuring it can be to get updates, with pictures and videos, while being away from your babies. I have 2 pups and tons of toys that will keep your pups entertained, and space they can retreat to if they feel overstimulated. I live close to trails for enjoyable walks, for the pups that are properly safeguarded with prevention and vaccines for a walk through the woods. I have plenty of kitty toys and scratchers for my kitty friends, so they can have fun and keep their nails in tip top shape. My fur babies have a calm and safe environment, and we’d love to share that with your fur baby.
About: I've had experience with puppies to powdered sugar muzzles and from <10lbs to 100+! High energy or a friend who loves a nap, I'll do by best to help your dog have a good time even when you aren't there for the fun. I'm currently a graduate student on summer break with a pretty open schedule. I may pick up a more traditional hourly job on the side, but I'm excited for the opportunity to stay busy over the summer and meet some amazing people and pets while I do it. As I have pets of my own who are a bit easily stressed, I do not offer services where your pet will be in my home. However, I have no issues coming to you! In your home, I will be calm and respectful and don't mind cleaning up any messes your pet may have made.
About: I have cared for and been around dogs throughout my whole life. I have always had a passion for animals! I love to run and play with dogs that have as much energy as I do or even just hangout on the couch and enjoy a relaxing day. I want to meet all of your pets needs even in last minute circumstances so that their humans can enjoy a stress free experience! Traveling and unexpected situations can be difficult and I want to make sure your pet is comfortable. I’m familiar with caring for senior dogs, puppies, and dogs with special needs. I currently make my own work schedule and have extremely flexible days. I’m always willing to adjust when needed. I love all sizes and breeds so I can accommodate any energy level as well I have a very loving and super friendly puppy of my own who would love to keep your pet company! We go for lots of walks throughout the day and get lots of time outside. I have cats as well that are very friendly with dogs but they can also be kept away in their own space if need be!
About: I have hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds, from energetic puppies to senior dogs and cats with special needs. I’ve worked with plenty of families and multiple dog kennels over the years and I am now enrolled in school to become a vet. I currently work in a veterinary clinic where I have the privilege of caring for all different breeds of animals. I am trained in administering medication and supplements of all kinds as well as giving love and care to all animals with their own personalities and routines! I offer a flexible and reliable schedule that allows me to fit pet care into my routine. I plan my day around each clients needs, ensuring your babies receive consistent attention, timely visits, and dependable care every time. I make it a priority to be available when your pet needs me most! Caring for pets in their own home allows me to crate a safe, familiar, and stress free experience tailored to their needs. I take the time to build trust with both you and your pet by following routines closely, maintaining a clean environment, and providing attentive care at all times. I also keep you connected with daily photo and video updates, so you always know how your pet is doing. To go the extra mile I offer a complimentary bath with select services, so you get to come home to a clean, refreshed, and happy animal!
About: Growing up on a farm, I’ve learned how to care for all pets. Dogs, cats, goats, chickens, bunnies, llamas. Hopefully your dog won’t spit on me like my llamas did ;) I adore all animals I love getting on their level to play, teaching them new tricks with clicker training, and back massages (‘cause even our pets need that sometimes too🥲). Your pet will LOVE their time at Camp Hanna. Bring em over! I work from home and where I cannot commit to a pet full time just yet, I’d love to help you out and host your best friend for as long as you need :) Lovely multiplex townhome on a quiet street. We have grassy side and backyard and several wooded walking trails. I go on walks between calls multiple times a day and would love to take your pooch out on the leash and work on their clicker training.
About: I have always had a big heart for pets. This includes cats and dogs. I enjoy being around them, feeding them, and cleaning after them. I work full time for a nonprofit, but have flexibility. I’m mostly available on Fridays-Mondays. I currently care for doggies and cats in my own home. My doggy is on a feeding schedule and get regular walks. He enjoys playing tug-a-war with me and enjoys having me the one to fetch his toys. I easily get along with animals and enjoy playing and exercising them.
About: Animals have been a constant in my life and career for over a decade. I spent 5 years working in veterinary medicine, starting as a kennel attendant in a boarding facility and working my way up to a veterinary receptionist while continuing hands-on care with boarded pets. That experience gave me a strong foundation in animal health, behavior, and daily care routines. While still in vet med, and continuing after, I ran my own pet sitting and dog walking business for nearly 6 years. I cared for pets in their homes, built long-term relationships with clients, and managed everything from daily walks to extended stays. I stepped away due to a demanding work schedule, but caring for animals has always been where my heart is. I’m experienced with special needs pets, administering medications (oral, topical, and injectable), managing behavioral challenges, and following detailed care instructions. I’m comfortable with senior pets, high-energy breeds, shy or anxious animals, and multi-pet households. Currently, I work as a 911 dispatcher for the county, which has strengthened my ability to stay calm under pressure, communicate clearly, and handle unexpected situations responsibly. Reliability, attention to detail, and safety are second nature to me. I’m excited to reconnect with what I’m most passionate about; providing dependable, knowledgeable, and compassionate care for your pets as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work 3–4 night shifts a week, which gives me several full days off dedicated entirely to pet care. On my workdays, I’m intentional about scheduling visits around my shifts so pets still receive consistent, reliable attention. Because I work nights, my daytime schedule is flexible. I take short rest breaks throughout the day, very much like your pets do lol, which allows me to stay energized while still being present and attentive during visits. I’m used to structuring my time carefully, and I prioritize reliability and routine so your pets feel secure and cared for. Whether it’s early morning drop-ins, mid-day visits, evening walks, or overnight care on my off days, I build my schedule around providing consistent, dependable care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication instructions, and household preferences exactly as outlined. My goal is to maintain consistency so your pet feels secure while you’re away. I provide plenty of enrichment, affection, and supervision tailored to each animal’s personality, whether that’s high-energy playtime, structured walks, or calm companionship for more anxious or senior pets. I’m experienced with administering medications, monitoring for health or behavioral changes, and handling special needs with confidence and care. I also treat your home with respect. I keep things clean, secure, and organized, provide regular updates with photos, and communicate clearly so you always know how your pet is doing. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my top priorities.

“Megan was great keeping our golden retriever Midas while we were on vacation. She arranged a meet and greet prior to our trip so Midas could meet her and her dogs. We received daily updates with pictures during his entire stay. And, from what I can tell, he had great time. I would highly recommend Megan to anyone in need of a pet sitter!”
“Tiffany was amazing taking care of my Tinkerbell. She was super responsive and provided frequent, daily updates. I never went without photos of Tinkerbell the whole week she stayed with Tiffany, which I appreciated very much. Tinkerbell clearly became comfortable very quickly in the new environment. I would highly recommend Tiffany with her caring, compassionate demeanor.”
“She was able to watch my dog on very short notice and willing to give meds not noted on my profile as they were only temporary. She sent lots of photos, was very responsive, and it looked like she treated my dog like her own. 10/10 would have her watch my pup again - thanks, Sophia!”
“Kaity was amazing to work with. She allowed me to book with her extremely last minute and kept me posted all weekend on how my Molly was adjusting. I will definitely book with her in the future!”

About: Hi Loving Furparents, My lifelong passion is interspecies communication, animal care & behavior, ecology, and environmental conservation. I have grown up communicating, training/learning, caretaking, and translating for animals my entire life, and I continue to follow my passion for animal care, rehabilitation, conservation, and helping others learn to listen and communicate with animals. I have recently lost my soul dog and partner of nearly 16 years to osteosarcoma. I have experience learning life lessons our senior friends teach us; to slow down, smell the wildflowers, enjoy the little things in life, lead with empathy, lend a helping hand to one another, and be grateful for the moment we have together. I have experience with caretaking during mobility issues for both animals, using help-em-up harnesses and wheelchairs. Additionally, I have awareness and understanding of training needs when the human is afflicted with chronic illness and mobility impairments, such as helping the animal to learn and be mindful of unsteadiness, fall prevention, etc. My current SDiT and I are working on counterbalance, DPT, crowd guarding, behavior interruptions, and some preliminary scent work. Additional Background of Experience; I grew up in the area with a variety of species throughout the years, from cats & dogs to horses, rodents, fish, chickens & guinea fowl to turtles, etc. This experience came with interspecies management, learning to hand-rear animals, helping animals learn core life skills, assess and rehab injury, hospice care, etc. Later, I completed a multidisciplinary degree from WVU with concentrations in Wildlife Management and Conservation Ecology. At WVU, I completed curriculum including a Service Dog Training course where the dog I worked with (Gretel) graduated the following year to become a certified therapy dog at Chestnut Ridge. Additional courses included Animal Behavior, Equine Hoof and Limb, Equine Assisted Therapy, and Exotic Animal Medicine, among others. Since graduating, I have compiled formal experience working with both domestic animals, wildlife and protection of their habitat. I had the privilege to work abroad in Botswana, Africa at game reserves where we were able to rehabilitate animals, provide game drives, supplemental feeding etc., and interned at Mokolodi Nature Reserve in Botswana, Africa, caring for animals in rehabilitation. I currently work full-time, which unfortunately limits my availability to primarily evenings and weekends at this time. Well-behaved, socialized dogs may be able to join during office work days. I am considering transitioning to full-time animal training, should it be feasible, which may allow for additional availability in the future. Additionally, I am navigating chronic illness after long covid through schedule modification and mindful movement during caretaking. Thank you for your understanding schedule limitations during this transition. Please communicate with me your dogs needs i.e.; whether your pet has separation anxiety, medical needs or food allergies, usual routines that make them feel safe, enrichment or husbandry that helps positively stimulate them mentally and emotionally, triggers to be mindful of/avoid, whether they have off leash recall or there are chase drive trigger concerns and they must stay leashed at all times, and anything else you feel is relevant so we may collaborate on their care plan to provide them the best support. I do have a large crate available for dogs that are most comfortable with crate training when it is necessary to leave them at home. Our geriatric cat Fluffy lives in the home with us (please alert me to dogs that have not been socialized with cats), there is a rescue parrot in the household, and I have a ~55 lb rescue and SDIT who is very friendly and loves having someone to play and run around in the yard with. She was a family member to my geriatric dog with mobility concerns before his passing, and she has experience with older dogs and cats.
About: I’ve taken care of many dogs of all ages and sizes since I was young and none have given me any trouble. I don’t mind picking up messes that any dog might make. I absolutely love playing with them and taking them on walks. I doordash as my job so my availability is 100% open to any kind of needs your dog has. I pick what hours I work with door dash but normally I’ll door dash throughout the day then come home for the day around 5. Although when watching any animal I tend to switch up my hours so I can make sure your pup is getting all the love and attention it needs. I like to keep a clean house so no dog has a chance to get into anything that could harm them or chew on anything not wanted.

“Brody had a great time staying with Allie! She sent lots of pictures throughout the weekend and made sure to check before getting him a pup cup or taking him to meet other dogs. We would definitely have Brody stay with Allie again!”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals as long as I can remember. From taking care of my own pets to helping others out with their pets, I love providing the pet care an owner needs help with and a pet needs. Growing up, I lived across the street from my great aunt who bred and showed Great Danes. From a young age I remember sitting and watching out the front window for my aunt to come home so I could call her and ask if I could come help her with her Danes. When I was 10 years old, I started my own dog walking/pet sitting business and I have helped numerous families out with their pets while they were out on vacation or just needed help getting their pets outside for some exercise. After college, I worked at a local pet store and have gotten a lot of experience with dogs, cats, fish, guinea pigs, and birds. I also have helped care for horses over the years. I love hanging out with animals and spoiling them like I do with my own pets. I am comfortable taking care of multiple pets and fur babies of all sizes. I have a very flexible schedule. I am available for full time or part time work. I am currently a stay at home mom, so my availability is fairly free, but it varies from week to week. I am pretty flexible and willing to work with your schedule. I let my pets out multiple times a day and take them on walks. I love to take my pets out on hikes as well.
