About: I've had multiple dogs and taken care of animals for my neighbors, friends, and family my whole life. From goats to chickens to dogs to cats I love it all and take my responsibilities very seriously! I'm currently taking two online college courses as well as a lab so I have plenty of time and flexibility to take care of your animals! I am a firm believer in not only making sure your pet is safe, comfortable, and fed but also giving them love and attention so there emotionally and mentally fulfilled as well.
About: I have been taking care of animals for most of my life. I have owned more than eight dogs and ten cats over that last fifteen years. I currently own four dogs and a cat; the cat was a rescued kitten, that was malnourished, injured and nursed back to health by us, and one of my dogs had diabetes so I have experience giving insulin shots. I very much enjoy caring for and playing with pets. Why I love dog sitting I've had pets for as long as I can remember. The first dog I remember having was Barney. I don't know what breed she was, but she was a big and black shaggy dog. She was so sweet and terrified of cameras. Then I think came Diamond, a dalmatian, and then Smokey, a chow or some sort of chow mix I believe. We also briefly adopted Runt when his owners threatened to take him to the pound(he was very hard to contain). He stayed with us for a while before he finally slipped out one day and we never saw him again, sadly. My family and I were taking a walk around our old neighbor hood when we ran into a rottweiler mix. My dad decided to pet her and she ended up following us home and refused to leave. We still have her. Most recently we have a chihuahua and a terrier that we rescued. The chihuahua was pregnant when we found them so we took care of the puppies until they were weaned and then we found a place that would help adopt them out. They were spayed and neutered and we fostered them until they were all adopted out. They were all very cute, but I was extremely fond of one particular fluffball, Puff Puff, and I ended up keep her. My experience administering medication I have experience administering insulin to a large dog on a regular basis and I've given oral medications to dogs and cats as well.
“Miguel is a great dog walker! He clearly loves animals and is gentle and caring with them. He was willing to come over on a very short notice and did a great job walking them and engaging with the dogs. I highly recommend Miguel!!!”

“Ashely immediately established a positive rapport with our possibly difficult dog and continued building that relationship throughout her contract. Both our dog and cat were well and fine upon our arrival home. Ashley's communication was thorough and consistent. Doppler got walked at least once each day weather permitting. Both dog and cat received good interaction and playtime each day. We recommend Ashely to anyone for either dog or cat care.”

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life! I have several years of professional dog grooming experience, where I’ve worked with dogs of different breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. I’m comfortable with handling, bathing, brushing, and caring for pets with different needs. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone patient, trustworthy, and attentive to your pet’s individual personality. I will treat your pets with the same love, care, and respect I give my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away! I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time and attention to the pets in my care. I enjoy spending time with animals, whether that’s going for walks, playing, providing companionship, or making sure they stick to their normal feeding and care routines. I understand that every pet has different needs, and I’ll do my best to accommodate their usual schedule and keep them comfortable while you’re away. As an experienced dog groomer, I understand the importance of keeping pets safe, comfortable, and happy. I always follow each pet’s routine and their owner’s instructions, supervise pets carefully, and make sure they have fresh water, a clean environment, and plenty of attention. I take time to learn each pet’s personality and needs, use gentle handling, and prioritize their safety and well being at all times. I’m happy to follow any specific instructions to help pets feel secure and at home.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
As of November 2026, there are 1,369 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Anchorage. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in Anchorage. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking bookings, your dog walker can send a Rover Card with details about your dog’s walk. Rover Cards require at least one photo and may include a map of the walking route, the total walk time and distance, and any pee or poop breaks recorded by the walker.
The route map lets you review where your dog was walked in Anchorage after the booking. It is not live GPS tracking.
Have specific details you would like included? Message your dog walker in the app before the walk begins.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your walker interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and walker for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
walkers on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
