About: As an animal person since birth I work hard to understand the specific needs and wants of each animal family member. I have worked with a wide variety of animals my whole life, in vet clinics, animal rehabs, farms, and homes. I can provide walks, hikes, senior care, interactive play time, personal attention, socialization, and general bathing and maintenance. I am incredibly intuitive and patient and pride myself in providing unique adaptive care to each pet. No pet is too big or small; too young or old! I care for all species as well. (dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, etc.) All animals deserve love and care! My work schedule is currently very flexible so most days are available at any time. I make sure to keep my calendar up to date. The safety of your pet is number one. I am more then happy to put in time to build trust with your pet. I even have a very patient dog of my own who can provide a friend to your dog or cat and help with socializing young or nervous animals. I not only care for your pet but your home. Any mess made by me or your pet I make sure to clean!

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was little and truly have a love of it. I have been taking care of other people's dogs for five years. I have experience with both senior dogs and puppies. I am currently not working a normal job so I will have plenty of time to care for your pets. I will have time for weekend and weekdays. I have a crate available for your pet if needed. There are two dogs where I live but both are very friendly and ready to play with new friends.

I am looking to fill up some free time I have and I’m available on week days as well as weekends to care for your fur baby My pets run and play on a farm all day long and are treated and cared for as loving members of the family of course

“Melissa has been wonderful! My pups are happy and well cared for! She has been flexible with my crazy schedule and oh so sweet. I feel that having her take care of my pups while I’m at work gives me peace of mind to focus on my job without having to worry if my fur babies are okay. Will hire her again and again!”


About: I have been regularly pet sitting for the past three years, and have sat for various friends' pets in the past. I have cared for senior pets and administered medication. I understand that having the "parents" away can be a stressful time for a pet, and I do my part to ensure that the pets are as comfortable as possible while under my care. I am an artist/freelance designer and side gig virtuoso (that's a fancy way of saying I make my own schedule). I keep things flexible to adapt to different environments. I believe that animals are healers and that we get back the care that we give to them. I am deeply grateful that I get to have the freedom that this and my other gig/freelance work allows me. I hope that is reflected in my care and respect of the clients' home.

About: I’ve been around animals since I was a child. Family friends rely on me to care for their animals when they go out of town. I currently have 2 cats, and a red heeler. Currently working full time, with a set schedule with whatever hours I choose, so I’m very flexible from around 7am-3-4pm, could always help later if need be I can easily play with your animals, walk them when needed, feed, water & bathe them, and crate them if they need to be crated.

About: I’ve taken care of many dogs and cats throughout my life , animals truly make me so happy and I hope to give them as much care and joy as they unconditionally give. I’m a soldier in the WV Army National Guard. I have a puppy of my own, Leo (5mo Dalmatian). We work on basic commands and manner, I clip his toe nails and brush his teeth. I have no issue providing those services if needed! I’m currently working full time as well as Drill weekends for the WV Army National Guard so drop ins and weekend pet stays at my home are ideal. I have 3 cats of my own and one puppy, they’re my favorite babies ever. Ideally boarding at my home is preferred especially dogs who are crate trained.

“Alex is a life saver. I use her almost weekly for dog check ins and she is amazing. My dogs absolutely love her and look forward to seeing her come. She is always there when I need her even with late notice. I’m blessed to have found her thanks so much Alex!”



About: Hi! Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. From high-energy puppies to slow-paced seniors, I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities — each one with their own quirks and needs. Whether your pup needs daily walks, playtime in the yard, belly rubs, medication, or a consistent routine while you’re away, I’ve got you covered. I’m confident, calm, and attentive — and I always treat pets like they’re my own. I understand how hard it can be to leave your dog behind, so I’ll provide regular updates, photos, and peace of mind while you’re away. Whether it’s a quick drop-in, an overnight stay, or a week of care, I’m here to keep tails wagging and hearts happy. Let’s make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and at home — even when you’re not. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I work part-time with a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to dedicate to your pets — whether that’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or overnight stays. Because I’m not tied to a full-time job, I’m able to adjust my availability based on each pet’s needs. I make sure to build my day around their routines, so they feel safe, relaxed, and well cared for — just like they would with you. Whether it’s one-on-one playtime, regular feeding schedules, or keeping up with medications, I take the time to make sure everything runs smoothly. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and loving environment that feels familiar and comforting. In your home: I respect your space and follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible — from feeding and walk times to their favorite spots to nap. I keep everything clean, secure, and consistent, so your pet feels relaxed while you’re away. I’m happy to water plants, bring in mail, and keep you updated with regular photos and messages. In my home: I offer a pet-safe, cozy space where your dog (or cat, depending on needs) will get one-on-one attention and feel like part of the family. I maintain a clean environment with plenty of play, rest, and cuddle time. If your pet has special needs or routines, I’m happy to accommodate them — from crate training to medication schedules. No matter where the care happens, I treat every pet like my own — with patience, affection, and full attention to their emotional and physical well-being.

About: Growing up, we had a Chihuahua, a terrier and beagles. I now currently have 3 labs and 1 German Shepherd therefore I’ve been around and am good with dogs of all sizes. I’ve experienced the puppy stage and with my oldest dog reaching 11 years old currently I’m experiencing the senior stage. I work full-time, so a lot of my free time will be in the evenings and weekends. However, my schedule fluctuates and I have short days and days off. With having four dogs and six cats currently in my home I won’t be offering any in home services as of right now or overnight stays in your home. I will be offering leashed walks of all durations and drop ins for your home on weekends that I have available.

“Ness is a great drop-in cat care person! One of my cats adored her—she was his food source after all! The other cat, who is quite neurotic and hides when anyone comes in the house, usually goes on an hunger strike when I’m gone but actually ate his food and even meowed for her one time. Ness’ quiet energy made everyone happy.”
