“I’m always relieved to leave my Shady with Kaylee because I know he will be in the best hands! She sends so many updates and is great with giving him his meds. We love Kaylee!”

“Sierra did a great job. She did leave the cat poop in a grocery bag for a few days so when we came in the house didnt smell great. Otherwise she kept me in the loop every day, took pictures & sent & kept the house clean. I will most definitely use her again.”

“Lyndsi was great! Punctual and went out of her way to make my pups feel comfortable in my absence. Even lending extra patience and care to help maintain cleanliness after puppy mishaps. Definitely grateful!”

“Nick watched our 2 dogs and gecko for a few days and we had a great experience! He was so professional and very responsive while we were gone. The house and all the animals were very well taken care of and we would highly recommend Nick to anyone!”

“Alicia was great! She stayed at our house with our 2 dogs and cat. She brushed our shepherd, gave transdermal medicine to our cat and gave Benadryl to our itchy pup who has allergies. She also kept the house super clean and picked up dog poop too! We will definitely use her again”

About: I’ve been a pet owner my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of different sizes, ages, and personalities. Through that, I’ve learned how to read animal behavior, provide consistent routines, and make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I’m experienced with daily responsibilities like feeding, walking, cleaning up, playtime, and giving pets the attention they need to stay happy and relaxed. I understand how important it is to be patient and gentle, especially with pets who may be shy, energetic, or need extra care. As a pet owner myself, I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I take that responsibility seriously. I have a flexible schedule and am available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits. I do my best to accommodate different routines, including last-minute bookings when possible. I’m reliable with timing and always make sure pets are cared for consistently and on schedule. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific care needs
“Chelsy was very communicative, was able to accommodate a extra night last minute and I had no worries while I was gone. I have 3 dogs, ages 7-14, with varying health issues and meds, Chelsy took care that all my instructions were followed. She had a extra challenge with it being NYE and one of my boys being terrified of loud noises (fireworks, storms, etc). Highly recommend and will use again!!!”
“Tenay did such a wonderful job taking care of all four of our fur kids. She sent us pictures and updates regularly. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a great sitter”

About: Pets have been apart of my life since I was born. I love animals more than anything. They have different personalities that can make you feel at ease. With pets there will always be something to do. My love for dogs runs deeply. I can care for your fur-baby the same way you would. Please leave clear instructions with your fur-baby so I can ensure they utmost care. I treat pets the same we way we treat our children. They will get the best care in my home. I am flexible with your instructions.
“Melanie took excellent care of our pets and our home while we were away. She was very patient with our animals even with their difficult personalities. We would love to have her sit for us again!”

“Emily was great. Last minute change and she was able to fit us in. Cats loved her and she played with both while she was there. Sent plenty of updates. Will use her again in the future.”
“Freddie was very sweet and open to all my communications about my dogs' various quirks and personality traits. When my dog injured himself the night before her stay, she took all of his care instructions in stride. When I arrived home, both dogs were just as happy and healthy as ever.”

“So this has been an unbelievable experience with Robin. We ran into some issues and wasn’t sure if we could keep our booking but Robin was more than willing to help us, strangers that she’s never met before! Not to mention how uneasy we felt about leaving our 4 month puppy who’s never socialized before with someone new! When we meet her that feeling went away immediately she slowly introduced her pup and cat to us and our puppy so he could warm up to them. We knew immediately we made the right choice and we will book her all the time from now on! Oh and she sends nothing but pup-dates and keeps in contact with you while caring for them! Robin is the sweetest person ever and very trustworthy. You won’t regret it!”

“Harley (Elise) provided exceptional care to our furry family members during the holidays. Her dedication and attention to detail truly stood out. Our senior pup received thoughtful care tailored to his needs, while our energetic boy enjoyed the perfect balance of playtime. Harley (Elise) went above and beyond to ensure their safety and well-being, especially during the challenging fireworks period. Throughout our extended international holiday, Harley (Elise) demonstrated unwavering commitment, ensuring our home remained tidy and our boys were happy. Her proactive communication style, regular updates, and prompt responses showcased a level of professionalism and reliability that provided us with immense peace of mind. Harley (Elise) not only met but exceeded our expectations, making our time away worry-free. I highly recommend Harley (Elise) and look forward to working with her again in the future.”

Anchorage pet parents share their Rover experiences
Lynda’s was great! Super sweet and easy to communicate with and sent updates about my dogs while I was out of town. My dachshund hurt his back right before I left and she was great about the quick pivot with needing to provide his meds and limit mobility while he healed. So thankful!
Megan was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond to care for [pet’s name], and I felt completely at ease knowing they were in her hands. She was attentive, loving, and professional — checking in regularly and making sure everything was perfect. I could tell she truly cares about animals, and it shows in everything she does. I can’t recommend her enough and will definitely be booking with her again!
