“Jessica was so great with my dog! She kept me updated with pictures and little messages about the day. I would definitely recommend her and hopefully get to use her services again!”
“Sarah accommodated our last minute vacation plans as well as kept our dog an extra night when our flight was delayed. Very pleased and we will be using her again in the future! :)”
“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!!!”
“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!”
“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.”

Pairing my knowledge with my nurturing instinct, unwavering love for animals, and gentle patience; it provides me with the skills and approach to give your fur-baby the best experience aside from being with you!

“Solar and his roommate Calvin are incredible. They took the best care of my senior dog who has a lot of special medical needs. I felt so comfortable with both of them watching 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!”
“Megan was an incredible. Provided daily updates, pictures and took care of my anxious pup. This was the first time Jack has spent a full week from me, and I am thankful to have found Megan!”
“Jennifer S. is top-notch, 5 star across the board. She treated my pup like her own. I was given regular updates with pics and videos, and my pup got a chance to run around in a safe secure environment with other dogs, allowing her to play and make new friends. Jennifer’s place is clean, safe, cozy, and all dogs are screened for their vaccinations. Jen S., is a true professional and I thank her for taking care of my pup. I highly recommend Jen S and will be a return customer for sure.”
“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!”
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!!”
“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: Ever since I was born I have grown up with dogs in my house. I also housesit for my friends, family and family friends all the time. I am currently working part-time so I will have plenty of time to hang out with all your pets! I am also available on weekends. You do not have to have a fenced in yard. I can also take your dogs out on a leash if that’s what is needed.
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: New to Rover, but not new to dog sitting :) I have several years of experience taking care of dogs, of all ages & breeds! I moved from Maine to WV and now have the time to be a dog sitter again! My overall love for animals and the ability to connect with them, makes me a safe and reliable sitter for your pup :) We have two open acres of grass for your dog to run around and play and a large tile floor sun room (with AC) for them to stay. My Great Dane stays in the sunroom in a playpen when she isn’t playing with chipmunks outside! If you prefer your dog to be on leash when outside-no problem! I can accommodate to your dogs’ needs! I have a 9 yr old female Great Dane who is real sweet & fully trained to my commands. She stays in a playpen in the AC, tiled sunroom with your pup. Your pup will have the one-on-one care that he/she needs while you are away. Fresh water will always be present :) My main goal is to keep every dog I care for safe & happy!

About: I have grown up with cats and during late middle school years I have took care of my grandparents cats by providing food, water, and entertainment while they went on vacation. I have volunteered at my local animal shelter to entertain and walk the dogs, and recently have had experience house sitting a dog and two cats for two weeks with providing water every day, proper scheduled food, keeping the litter cleaned three times a day and as needed, and took the dog on walks every day to keep her active as well as making sure the cats never got bored. I’m a WVU freshman who is currently working towards majoring in Animal and Nutritional Sciences to pursue a dream job as a veterinarian. I am hoping to gain more experience with your beloved furry friends and a little extra cash in-between my semester breaks! Unfortunately, I do not provide care at my personal residence, but as long as you leave your pets with me I’ll treat them as my own, proving them fresh water every morning, keeping up with the scheduled feeding schedules, and making sure they always have clean litter and that your dogs are walked multiple times a day. As well as providing them entertainment while they’re in my possession making sure they never get bored, getting the proper attention and care they deserve.
About: All my life Ive been surrounded by dogs. I love them!! My family and I raised Guide Dogs for the Blind in middle/high school. The guide dog program emphasized consistently above all else. In high school I volunteered at a puppy mill rescue center and sat with dogs and help build trust towards humans. I learned a lot about taking your time with each and every dog. After college I volunteered at the Dumb Friends League for 6months and eventually adopted our sweet old dog Kenai. I am a full time fitness manager. My job is very flexible and I have multiple breaks throughout my day. I love to run, walk and hike! My husband often times will assist me. He works from home and is extremely patient with all animals. I call my husband the dog whisperer. We both love spoiling your pets! Pet care is woven into my daily and weekly routine in a big way. I have nine cats of my own, plus I foster regularly, so mornings and evenings always begin and end with feeding, litter box care, and spending time with them. Throughout the day I make space for playtime, cuddles, and quiet check-ins so each cat feels safe and cared for. I also volunteer weekly with SNIP and work with Mountaineers for Mutts, so my schedule naturally revolves around making sure animals are supported—whether that’s at home, in foster care, or through community efforts. It’s not something I squeeze in; it’s a core part of my lifestyle and something I prioritize every single day. In my home, I care for my own nine cats and foster cats by keeping a structured routine—regular feeding schedules, fresh water, clean litter boxes, and plenty of playtime and affection. I make sure each cat feels safe and comfortable, whether that means quiet time for the more timid ones or interactive play for the energetic ones. When I’m in a client’s home, I focus on following their specific instructions so their pets keep the same routine they’re used to. That includes feeding, walks, litter or potty breaks, administering medication if needed, and giving them companionship—whether that’s play, snuggles, or just sitting quietly with them if that’s what makes them comfortable. My goal is to make sure pets feel secure and cared for, and that their owners feel confident knowing I’m treating their pets with the same attention I give my own.
“We really appreciate Jennifer (and John) for taking care of our kitten. They were very thorough and gave updates along with photos. they were able to watch Cali with little time notice. They made sure Cali was played with, cuddled and cleaned up nicely when we got back.”
“There aren't enough folks celebrating cats on Rover in general, and it was so nice to find Lauren-- she handled things here very well, medicating one cat and managing all their "unique' personalities well. Cats seemed to not notice I was gone, which is always a great thing.”
“McKenzie took wonderful care of our dog Nala while we were away for the weekend. She communicates well, responds quickly, and sends lots of pictures. Absolutely will be booking with her again for our further trips. You can trust that your fur babies are in excellent hands with her!!”
About: I have been an animal lover my whole life. I was raised around dogs and cats from the time I was born. I was a dog sitter for a few years, but I currently don't have the space for it in my home. I have experience in dog grooming, and I cut my own dogs hair. Currently, I am interested in mostly dog walking and occasional grooming services. I'm a bit out of practice with cutting dogs with different hair texture from my poodles curly coat, so I will take grooming clients on a case by case basis right now. Bathing, ear cleaning, nail trimming, gland expression, and things like that are always available. I am currently working from home, so I have a lot of extra time to fill. I'm looking to get back into my dog walking hobby. I should be available most days of the week. I'm sensitive to each individual pet's needs. I always treat my pup like my baby, and will do the same with yours. My dog is very friendly, and gets along with all animals, so if you'd like some socializing or playtime, we can introduce them.
“This is the second time we’ve used Christian and McKayla. You can depend on them to take great care of your cats while you’re away. It’s nice to come home to washed food dishes, clean litter boxes, and happy cats.”
About: I was a professional pet photographer for many years, and I have worked at a luxury pet resort. I started accepting Rover bookings in June of 2025. I will be with your dogs during the day as well as overnight, but I will need to be able to leave during the day to meet ongoing commitments. I will travel out of my area (Deep Creek, Alpine Lake) for an additional fee. I will stay with your pets in your home, where they are most comfortable. If they are used to cuddling on the couch with you while you watch television, I will do that. If they are used to being outside a lot, I will take them out (weather permitting of course).
“Rachel did a wonderful job with our dog while we were away! We would fldefinitely recommend her as she sent thorough updates and pictures. These were very reassuring to see throughout the week!”
“Kaity was an excellent sitter for my cat Beau, she's very communicative and helpful and having her watch him gave me a ton of peace of mind. This was my first time using this app and she was so patient with me helping me work through things and understand how everything worked.”
About: I’ve had experience with cats my entire life. As an adult, I’ve taken in stray cats, helped rehome others, and even cared for two kittens who were born under my house in California. Those two made a cross-country move with me to Pennsylvania and lived long, happy lives to the ages of 18 and 19. I currently share my home with two senior rescue cats and am also caring for a barn cat who appeared during the last snowstorm—I’m confident we’ll be friends in time. I truly enjoy spending time with cats, whether that means playtime, companionship, or simply being a calm presence. I’m comfortable administering medications if needed, and I also understand that some cats prefer their space—and I respect that completely.
“Archie was a content cat when we got back home so I know he was happy with the care Rachel provided. He was well-fed, the boxes were clean, and he hadn't gotten into any mischief. Thanks!”

“We needed a dog sitter while visiting WVU for the day. We found Megan and were happy to use her doggy daycare for our Takoa. Megan communicated with me often and checked in about how Takoa was doing with her dogs. He had such a fun time with her amd loved her 2 labs! We will definitely reach out again when we are visiting the area and highly recommend her!”
“Jessica did a wonderful job with Webster. She sent me videos and pics throughout the day and really made me feel at ease with having my puppy out of my care for the day. Thank you so much Jessica.”
“Once again Lily had an amazing day with Kathryn! She had a long walk and lots of cuddles. Kathryn sent several pictures, we know Lily is in the best of care when she’s with Kathryn!”
About: I grew up with pets so I have been caring for dogs and cats my entire life. I have trained many dogs and currently am Mama to an 12 year old rescue beagle mix. My experience ranges through dogs of all sizes and ages. I grew up with a Shiba Inu that has seizures so I am prepared to care for animals with special needs. I offer dog walking, daycare, and drop ins. I work from home and my dog is very friendly and is great with all animals so there is no need to worry if you need daycare services. I look forward to caring for your animals. I work from home M-F from 8-5 so I’m available during that time for daycare or on my lunch hour for walks/drop Ins. I am also available before and after work. I have a very friendly dog that will love the company of your pets. We go on multiple walks a day and we are flexible so we can meet your pet’s needs

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.

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!

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 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: You can trust me to care for your pets of any kind as well as your home just as if they are my own. I am a local dad that has the great fortune of managing my business from home. This leaves me plenty of time to take care of my newest family member, Casey!! We especially love golden retrievers and labradors. And of course all others Woff .as Casey continues to train daily to be a service dog.she's our special one she loves hosting After suffering the loss of our beloved chocolate lab Marley this past June, we decide to immediately get a new pup. The silence and her amazing presence was way to tough on our family to live without. We now have Casey!! Casey is our brand-new golden retriever puppy! She is now 1 year 7 monthss old and is always looking for and delighted to meet the newest visitor that will become her new buddy. I put my time and devoted energy into my family, my work and my animals, which are my passion. Our favorite place to go is Royal Lake in Fairfax but we do daily walks in our neighborhood throughout the day as well as Burke Lake. Burke Lake is a nice place but can get overcrowded so we tend to steer toward Lake Royal, it’s a really a serene place with plenty of wildlife and good smells! I am flexible with scheduling and have no problem with last minute requests. Your dogs will have full access to my home on couches and beds if you choose. They will live as my Casey does… perhaps a bit spoiled. ;-). My aim is to have a dog friend or two over for a safe place where your pup can come and not be caged while you are gone. Casey needs the exercise but more than anything she wants friends! I am not looking to run a dog hotel, just a family environment with a loving atmosphere. Because of my job I cannot leave during the day for long periods of time so your pup will be by my side most of the time during my care. I feel that exercise is key to good behavior so I try to make sure the dogs in my care will come home tired, loved and happy! I look forward to caring for your loved ones! we specialize in loveas Casey continue her training as a service dog. She loves meeting new friends and basically it's a doggy bed and breakfast with more love and harmony.she loves hosting.

I always treat my pup like my baby, and will do the same with yours. My dog is very friendly, and gets along with all animals, so if you'd like some socializing or playtime, we can introduce them.
About: I often volunteer at the SPCA to spend more time with animals. I love animals, and it is a great take away to spend time with a furry friend amidst all of life’s chaos. I currently work a day job semi full time, but I make sure to plan around with my rover schedule! My two pets are my world, and I have fit my home schedule surrounding caring for them. I prefer to lounge around with furry babies! I have grown up with pets my entire life, and know how important it is to give them a great quality of life. I will make sure all the pets needs are met, and have a primary focus of communication with owners. I want all of my clients to feel comfortable with my service, and to enjoy their time away knowing their babies are being loved!
About: What sets me apart is my genuine, lifelong love for dogs and my hands-on experience as a pet owner myself. I have two dogs, and my oldest is now 7 years old, so I understand the different needs that come with both younger and older dogs. I’m patient, responsible, and very in tune with dogs’ body language and emotional needs. I’m also experienced with basic training for puppies and attentive care for senior dogs, including administering medications and adjusting routines to match their energy and health needs. I treat every dog like family and aim to create a calm, safe, and fun environment tailored to each pet’s personality. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily life since I have two dogs of my own. I’m used to planning my days around feeding, walks, playtime, and giving them the attention they deserve. Adding care for other pets fits seamlessly into my routine because I genuinely enjoy it. Whether it’s early morning walks or evening check-ins, I’m flexible and committed to making sure each pet gets the consistent care and love they need. When caring for pets in their own home, I prioritize keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow your instructions closely for feeding, walks, playtime, and any special needs like medication or crate time. I make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for in your absence. I also keep your home tidy and secure, and I’m happy to send regular updates so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands.
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.
“Bethany did an amazing job! I was in need with very little notice and Bethany accepted the job and made it so easy. My pet was taken care of and I didn’t have to worry. I would recommend her a thousand times!”
About: I have experience in working with animals in boarding and daycare and currently work as a veterinary assistant. I am trained in animal restraint, administering medications, and reading body language. I also have 3 family dogs and one of my own. Taking care of pets is my life. For work, I take care of animals at Duck Hollow Animal Hospital as a Veterinary Assistant. I am also studying Veterinary Technology at Pennwest California. Because of my academics, during school, I will only be able to book on Sundays. I have a female rescue dog that loves other dogs and cats! If you want your dog to have a friend, I can bring her, or if not, that's okay too!
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: Hi there! 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 had pets since I was born. I've fostered cats, kittens, and elderly dogs for shelters, and have experience pet sitting for dogs of a variety of sizes. Sometimes those sits were for 4 weeks at a time. I also have experience giving dogs medication and am familar with the different medications having been in a shelter environment and having a mom who worked in a vets office. I've had my own deaf dog for 11 years now and am very familiar with the care involved with a dog with special needs. I've also adopted senior dogs and know what kind of care they require. I know how to take care of dogs with high anxiety issues and those with a lot of phobias too. I've yet to meet an animal I didn't like!
About: My whole life I’ve grown up with pets in my home (dogs and cats). My mother worked at a vet so she has passed her knowledge onto me, taking care of animals comes easy for me as I have cared for my own as well as others fur babies. I just graduated college and have a day job but would be happy to provide services when off, I have 2 cats of my own and have grown up around both dogs and cats At my apartment complex we have a grassy area so your furry friend could get outside time if needed. I do not have a crate but if provided one could accommodate that when outside the home. I also have a car, so going to a park for longer walks could be accomplished if the pet does well in vehicles.
About: I have owned and been around dogs my entire life. I am a nurse and have experience in providing medications (including injections) for my dogs. I have experience with bigger dogs as well (previous bulldog owner and current owner of bulldog/pit mix). I work 3 days a week but would love to help out on my days off. I am flexible and would love to help out fellow pet parents that work long hours. I am familiar with the dog park at Krepp’s park and enjoy walks at cheat lake. I would love to take your pup along for a walk.
About: I have had pets my entire life, specifically cats and big dogs. Currently, I have two cats - Ramona and Lawrence. It would be an honor to care for your pets for you. I am currently working as a therapist. I'm currently in training 9-5, Monday-Friday, my schedule will be pretty flexible after training. I have a reliable vehicle. I am a very safe and responsible person and would absolutely ensure the safety of your pets. If you give me rules, I will make sure they are followed. I'm also sober and a non-smoker.
About: I've taken care of dogs since a small child & have provided services to many people & their furbabies over the years. We currently have 3 dogs. I work full time Monday-Friday; please reach out to me if you have a need because I may be able to drop in. I'll be available anytime on Saturday & Sunday as well as evenings. When I'm with your furbaby, I will spoil them just like you. We have 3 dogs - 2 adult dogs and a new puppy. My dogs are crate trained & are fed on a schedule. I would follow any guidelines set forth.
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.

“Sarah accommodated our last minute vacation plans as well as kept our dog an extra night when our flight was delayed. Very pleased and we will be using her again in the future! :)”
“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!!!”
“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!”
“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.”
About: I have spent my entire life around animals, caring for them and making their lives as meaningful as possible. It began on my families old dairy farm when I was a child, and carried into my 15 year involvement within the veterinary/pet care industry. My passion for creating a safe environment for all animals has guided me to Rover, so I can operate my own business to my own high expectations of love and care for your pets! I have a vast amount of knowledge across all facets of the animal world including medical, behavioral, and enrichment. Pairing my knowledge with my nurturing instinct, unwavering love for animals, and gentle patience; it provides me with the skills and approach to give your fur-baby the best experience aside from being with you! I am a full time pet caregiver! I have flexibility 7 days a week to accommodate any and all scenarios for you and your fur babies! I am available to watch your pet in my home as well as yours. I do have indoor dens for your pup to stay in when not outside with me. I have all types of toys available per your preference. I have water, food, and treats available! I am also experienced in topical, oral, and injectable administration. I will be able to walk your dog multiple times throughout the day. I also have a quiet area for your cat as well!
“Solar and his roommate Calvin are incredible. They took the best care of my senior dog who has a lot of special medical needs. I felt so comfortable with both of them watching him!”
“Megan was an incredible. Provided daily updates, pictures and took care of my anxious pup. This was the first time Jack has spent a full week from me, and I am thankful to have found Megan!”
“Jennifer S. is top-notch, 5 star across the board. She treated my pup like her own. I was given regular updates with pics and videos, and my pup got a chance to run around in a safe secure environment with other dogs, allowing her to play and make new friends. Jennifer’s place is clean, safe, cozy, and all dogs are screened for their vaccinations. Jen S., is a true professional and I thank her for taking care of my pup. I highly recommend Jen S and will be a return customer for sure.”
“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!”
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.
“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: Ever since I was born I have grown up with dogs in my house. I also housesit for my friends, family and family friends all the time. I am currently working part-time so I will have plenty of time to hang out with all your pets! I am also available on weekends. You do not have to have a fenced in yard. I can also take your dogs out on a leash if that’s what is needed.
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.

About: New to Rover, but not new to dog sitting :) I have several years of experience taking care of dogs, of all ages & breeds! I moved from Maine to WV and now have the time to be a dog sitter again! My overall love for animals and the ability to connect with them, makes me a safe and reliable sitter for your pup :) We have two open acres of grass for your dog to run around and play and a large tile floor sun room (with AC) for them to stay. My Great Dane stays in the sunroom in a playpen when she isn’t playing with chipmunks outside! If you prefer your dog to be on leash when outside-no problem! I can accommodate to your dogs’ needs! I have a 9 yr old female Great Dane who is real sweet & fully trained to my commands. She stays in a playpen in the AC, tiled sunroom with your pup. Your pup will have the one-on-one care that he/she needs while you are away. Fresh water will always be present :) My main goal is to keep every dog I care for safe & happy!
“My puppy had a good time with Jessica K. Jessica texted pictures of QT Pi with her smiley face and wagging her tail! I would highly recommend Jessica K to anyone needing to board their dog. Thank you Jessica K!”
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.
“Seilia was amazing. She kept me updated on when Apollo was let out and sent photos of my angel. She was incredibly accommodating and understanding. Apollo can be a little skiddish and she took this into account and continued to make sure he was comfortable and loved and cared for. I highly recommend and would definitely book again in the future”
