She went above and beyond cleaning the house before we came home and washing the sheets she used to stay in our guest room, both which were not requested. We plan to use Elizabeth again in the future! DEFINITELY RECOMMENDED!!”

He will be my first call anytime Gertie needs someone to watch her. Thank you!!”
About: For almost a decade, I have provided dedicated care for my own dog while my family has been away, ensuring their health, happiness, and well-being. This hands-on experience has made me highly attentive to a pet’s daily needs, from feeding routines to exercise and companionship. I understand the importance of maintaining a familiar and loving environment, making pets feel secure even when their owners are away. My patience, adaptability, and commitment to care set me apart—I treat every pet as if they were my own. I am quite literally ready to attend to your dog’s every need just as I have been doing so for my own so long! I am available all mornings, late afternoons, and throughout nights every day of the week. I work part-time from 9am to 1pm, so outside of that I am always available I have a fenced in front yard and backyard, I have a car so I can take them to the local dog park, if your fur baby makes a mess I’m not afraid to clean it up and handle the problem
“Jamie is a sweetheart and takes such good care of our Bear. He got excited when she came to take care of him. Jamie keeps us posted on how he is doing. We are grateful to have found Jamie.”
About: I think treating animals like they’re equal to humans is very important! I like to get down on their level and treat them with lots of love! I think they’re way smarter than we think. I am in the process of looking for full-time work and until then I am fairly free! When I walk the neighborhood, I have many dog friends. Our cats are three years old, so we do not bring other animals into our home. we have had a dog on a leash eating with us and the cats were walking around, but I have not put them with the dog.
About: I have been rescuing animals of all kinds and nursing them back to health since I was a child,sharing my family's love of all animals. This has cultivated an understanding of various pet needs and behaviors. I am skilled at administration of medicines in a comforting,calming, and efficient manner. My long lived animals are a testament to my commitment to their care and well-being. I understand the importance of recognizing each pets personality as an important part of understanding their care and contributing to their happiness. I am looking forward to dedicating my time to the care of animals full time. I am available for all hours of care. Something I love. I prioritize safety and creating a comforting and secure space for pets to relax and play. I am comfortable with crating and confident with a leash with animals of all sizes.

Anchorage pet parents share their Rover experiences
Jamie was great with Ivy! Ivy is a reactive cattle dog who can be weird with strangers. Jamie came over for a meet and greet and Ivy was unsure for the first few minutes but was warming up after the about 45 minutes Jamie was here which is a big thing for Ivy!! Before our 10 day vacation we wanted Jamie to come over and see Ivy again. It didn’t work out for an overnight stay but she came and let Ivy out twice while we were away for the day. When we went away for the ten days I was very nervous the first day or two because I have bad anxiety and was afraid that something would go wrong but by the end of the first day I knew Ivy was in good hands! Jamie gave me daily updates and lots of pictures. And one of the nights was the Fourth of July which my dog is terrified of and with the help of some trazadone they were able to get through it! I can’t thank Jamie enough! Thank you for taking care of the lady and giving me piece of mind on my vacation!!!!!
Ace did such a great job taking care of Odell while we were out of town. They made sure she was well fed, walked, and even administered medication. Ace also made sure that they sent frequent updates and pictures which made us feel comfortable while we were gone! Thanks Ace!!
Gabriella was wonderful! She took such good care of our cat and dog on a Fourth of July holiday with fireworks and traffic! Highly recommend!
We love Kemmesha! She is great with our energetic dogs. We are always nervous about having someone new in our house but we felt very at ease with her.
Brittany helped us out so much this weekend while we attended a family wedding. It was so great to be able to trust her to care for our puppies while we were away. She sent us some adorable pictures and graciously allowed me to leave a third dog with her unexpectedly. I definitely recommend Brittanny to anyone!
Lauren was awesome! She watched our two dogs for the week and sent us lots of updates and we were very comfortable leaving our pups with her.
Tiffany did a great job watching my dogs. She was by frequently and very communicative, always sent pictures and updates. Would use again and recommend her for others.
We have used Haley a few times. She is great, responsive, and our girls love her. She also helped with things around the house such as watering plants, brought in our mail, and managed an unexpected visit from an appliance company while we were away without hesitation. This was all greatly appreciated!
Ezekiel was fantastic with my dogs. My Yorkie is on 2 liquid medications and it’s a challenge to give it to him. Ezekiel handled it like a professional. And he was very sweet to our Bella. We highly recommend him.
Another great pet sitting from Liam! He is great with the animals, keeps us updated, and stays at the house with the pets while we are gone. Great peace of mind while we are away—thanks so much, Liam.
Cassandra was super sweet and responsive. She updated me throughout the weekend and took great care of my dog. 100% recommend!!
Lindsay was able to help me with my two cats as I had to be out of town unexpectedly. She's great and the boys took right to her! I'll definitely use her again!
Catherine took excellent care of our cat while we were on vacation. She was very detail oriented and put my mind at ease by sending me pictures and communicating with me throughout her stay. I highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs.
I reached out to Liza late in the evening the day before I required in-home visits for my dogs. To my relief, she responded swiftly and confirmed her availability. As this was a last-minute arrangement on my part, the planning and coordination were somewhat hectic. Liza truly took the pressure off me by handling the majority of the logistics. During her visits, her communication was excellent, and she consistently sent wonderful photos that clearly demonstrated the excellent care my dogs were receiving. On a scale of 1 to 10, Liza deserves an 11! Thank you so much, Liza, for your exceptional service!
Super great experience with Tommy! He took great care of our baby boy and the house. Fantastic sitter!
Taylor is fantastic with my dog Georgia, really glad we found him! Lots of picture updates, and my dog is very happy in all of them. He was also very accommodating with a date change, as I had put the wrong end date in. Highly recommend!
Andy was a total life saver! I had someone cancel on me last minute and Andy was able to confirm and meet me first thing in the morning the day I was leaving. He sent me updates all the time & made me feel 1000% relaxed that my dog was not only being well taken care of but having a great time. He will be my first call anytime Gertie needs someone to watch her. Thank you!!
