About: I love animals. All animals. I’ve had pets since I was a baby. I have 3 dogs and a Persian cat. I’ve always wanted to work with pets and this seems great. I will love and care for your pet like they were my own and you will never have to worry about them. I know your pets are your family and I will care for and love them. They will be at home in my home. You can work and enjoy your day or vacation without having to worry about your pets. I can watch your pets almost any time. I’m home almost all the time. If they’re is an appointment or anything that has to be done I will let you know ahead of time. I live in a rural area. Surrounded by the woods and not near a road. Only have 1 neighbor that is close and it’s family. Plenty of room to run and play.

About: I currently have a pup of my own who I have been training. She still has work to do. I have spent years prior to that being the house/animal sitter back home in West Virginia. I work part time. I am a teacher during the school year. In the summer I just work 5 hours 2 days a week at a local winery. I usually walk/bike my dog every morning before work. On days I do not, I try to get her out on a longer walk or swim when the weather is really hot. I have a very flexible schedule in the summer to fit in other animals. I am pretty vigilant when it comes to my own dog. I try to make sure she gets plenty of exercise. She needs it. I love getting her socialized with older and younger dogs. I have even taken my pup to school with me to socialize best with my students are blind. I would follow the care needs set forth by the dog/cat parents. Please be sure to give special instructions if needed.

“Excellent dog sitter, took great care of Mia while I was away. Went out of his way to give me daily updates on how she was doing, and she did great while with James and his dog. Very professional, would book again any day!”

“Ashley really helped us out at the last minute when we couldn’t get any of our friends to watch our cats. The cats really liked her, our “scaredy-cat” even came out of hiding to get treats from her, which is completely unheard of. It’s clear the cats were in good hands, and we would absolutely recommend her and use her services again.”

About: I have had dogs all my life. Dogs are my favorite thing and I spend a lot of time caring for my friends and families animals. I'd love to do the same for you. I am a dog groomer. Certified in cpr and first aid. I also have a cat safety certification. I have fostered many I am a dog groomer for the local pet shop. I have a pet cpr and first aid certification. I work 8:30-5 pm. Monday - Saturday. My boyfriend does get off at 4:30 every day. I am committed to making sure your pet has a great time while they are with me. I exercise my animals in the morning and when I get home from work. Your dogs will have the same schedule. They will enjoy lots of treats and snuggles while in my care. I work full time Monday-Saturday 9am - 5pm. I have a fully fenced yard for morning potty and play time. In the evening, we have play time before dinner when I get home at about 6pm. Your dog will need to be able to be left alone or crated for up to 9 hrs. When your dog is at my home and under my supervision safety is my first priority. I prefer if you bring a kennel so I am able to crate them if needed. My time before and after work will be spent with your animal making sure they get enough exercise and fun to keep them happy.

“Jodi was great - timely in meeting at our predetermined location, flexible with times, friendly/personable, and forgiving of my dog’s elderly foibles (like sometimes peeing inside). I would certainly have her sit again in the future.”

“Christa was incredibly friendly, patient, and accommodating. Our pup is very shy around new people and she took the time to let him get used to her and the environment. She communicated frequently and promptly through the app. We had some unexpected schedule changes and she was very flexible in allowing us to adjust our drop off and pick up times.”

About: I’ve taken care of many animals over the years and I thoroughly enjoy it ! I currently have some farm animals like goats, chickens and our two Great Pyrenees ! I have a pretty flexible schedule so we can figure out a good day and time for your loved animals to come spend with me ! We have a lot of land for your pets to run around on , but we do not have it fenced in. We live out in the country ! Whatever their normal schedule is I would accommodate that of course. Just let me know anything you need and would want for your fur baby and we will make sure it happens !

About: I make sure they’re taken care of properly just like the owner wants. I’m all around an animal lover. I enjoy the walks, playing, and bonding. Availability is whenever. I love teaching dogs tricks! I like setting goals for myself and animals. I like making them feel loved. Giving them the attention and care that they need. I will do anything for anyone. I love helping others. If your animal needs special care then that’s what they will get. I will give them the best care that you ask for. I have a year old puppy that loves attention. He would love a playmate as well. We have had him since he was a month old and he’s been potty trained since about 2 weeks after we had picked him up.

About: I have several years of experience taking care of dogs, cats and horses. I graduated from WVU in animal and nutritional sciences where I gained experience with pets and livestock from classes, working at the WVU farm and dog sitting for my professor. I learned even more about dog behaviors and training when I took a service dog training class. I’ve also fostered dogs for our local humane society. I have a toddler and a full-time job, but currently work from home besides occasional field visits and events, so I am flexible to walk and play with your pups. For clients that I’ve had in the past (and future) - I moved about 10 minutes down the road and do not have a fenced in yard, but we do have a wireless fence with extra collars or I can keep them on the leash each time we are outside. We have a large yard back yard beside a farm, so lots of space for playing ball or getting the zoomies out! We have two spoiled dogs of our own to keep your pup company. I also have a very large dog crate, dog beds, toys & bones in my house if needed. Your dog will get treated like one of my own and have access to hangout in the whole house or yard! If you book me for drop-ins, I’m also more than happy to bring in mail, water flowers, etc. while you’re out of town.

About: Hi neighbors! I’m a stay-at-home mom with a 4+ year background in veterinary medicine. While I stepped away from the clinic to raise my human kiddo, my passion for animals hasn't skipped a beat! Choosing me means your pets get a caretaker who knows exactly how to handle specialized medical needs, senior routines, or sudden emergencies, combined with a peaceful environment where they won't be left alone all day. I treat every animal like a member of my own family. Let me give you complete peace of mind while you are away! Always home, always available, and veterinary trained! As a stay-at-home mom, I am at the house full-time, meaning your pet will never be left lonely, bored, or unsupervised. Whether your dog needs frequent potty breaks, a rigid medication schedule, or just constant human companionship, I am here all day, every day to provide a safe, attentive, and loving home away from home. An ultra-safe home base and elite, detail-oriented drop-ins. When your pets stay with me, they get the ultimate backyard paradise: a fully fenced-in yard perfect for burning energy, plus two incredibly friendly resident dogs to keep them company. I pay extremely close attention to the smallest details—from locking up secure entryways and checking water bowls to monitoring subtle changes in your pet’s behavior, appetite, and mood. Whether at my house or yours, your furry family members are completely secure.
