About: My name is Mallorie. I'm a mom. Animals are my life! I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in Pet Care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends. I have a Alaskan Malamute. Her name is Carly Rae. I've also adopted five stray cats. They showed up on my door step, and since then I've been taking care of them. Some of my hobbies are, hiking, camping, and swimming. My dog loves hiking with me. I'm excited to get to know your pet and care for them! 🐕 Pets need routines just as much as humans do for a sense of calm and safety. An act as simple as refilling their food bowl at the same time every day is enough to make them feel comfortable in their living space. Proper pet care includes providing a safe and comfortable area. Frequency with letting out to use the bathroom. Making sure that your pet gets regular exercise, such as walks and play time.

About: Ive taken care of animals my whole life. Whether it was a dog, ferret, or even a goldfish I absolutely adore animals with my whole heart. Im currently going to school full time with a very open schedule that gives me a majority of the day to be free for whatever I need to do. Ive grown up with both crate trained and uncrate trained dogs both big (cane torso) or small (chihuahua) and have had no problem getting them in comfortably and safely. Having multiple pets makes keeping track of when they need to go out and when they should be fed very easy making sure to have as little accidents as possible and always checking the surroundings when letting them in and out of the house.

Trina has been amazing with Nugget who is NOT a fan of walking. She has been resourceful to ensure he gets the most out of his walks. She is on time, communicative and provides a thorough report after each walk.

About: Growing up with dogs all my life along with my animal science major I well versed in medication routines, early morning to late night potty breaks, special dietary needs to the ones who have been loved past their youth and need a little extra care. I’ve been bit, scratched, slobbered and thrown up on and there is nothing too much to handle I’m working part time at a restaurant however I am more than willing to make time during off days for your fur-babies, walks and regular exercise, quick check ins and long stays I will make time to do. Pets are watched closely, mostly nearly medication administration and meal time. If desired I can feed at specific times and can adapt a medication schedule periodically for any and all fur babies.

About: I’ve had plenty of dogs my entire life as well as taken care of friends and families dogs. Overnight, check ins or walking. I love walking dogs especially and playing with all animals. I will provide a safe, caring, and loving environment for your pets so you’re worry free while away from them! Currently between jobs and am a full time online college student. So I am pretty flexible!! If something doesn’t work i’ll just make that clear but I do not have many scheduled things in my day to day. I don’t mind doing feeding, walking, play time! Also don’t mind light clean up if they make a mess while you are gone. My dogs are kind of crazy so I understand messes happen! My dogs have an open back yard but if your dog is trained to walk I will be happy to take them out that way. My dogs get plenty of play time mainly with each other but i’ve done plenty of play time with them myself and can incorporate that with you dogs if they require play time! I also have dealt with older and sick dogs so I know how to be gentle and handle that. I have also had my own cat and watched others, I adore cats. Mine was sick for a while so i’m familiar with oral medication for cats and soothing cats’ anxieties as mine suffered heavily from unknown anxiety.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 5 years through family, friends, and neighbors. I’m experienced with feeding routines, daily walks, playtime, cleaning up after pets, and providing plenty of love and attention while owners are away. I can comfortably administer oral medications, perform basic grooming like brushing and wiping paws, and I’m attentive to each pet’s unique personality and routine. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. Currently I am working from home which will allow for me to be as flexible as needed to watch all of your furry friends whenever necessary! I ensure that pets in both my home and my friends or clients' homes receive attention and loving care, tailored to their individual needs and routines.

About: I have always been a big animal person. I have been pet sitting for friends, family, and acquaintances since I was 13 years old. I have had the privilege of caring for many dogs, cats, and other pets over the years, and I would love the opportunity to care for your pet. I am totally available Monday through Friday all day, most weeks, unless I am out of town for a trip or nannying for a family. I take caring for someone else's pet very seriously. I will always prioritize that animal's safety and care and will remain vigilant when pet sitting or walking to ensure that safety.

About: As a veterinary technician with hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, exotics, and farm animals, I bring an extra level of knowledge and confidence to pet care. I'm comfortable administering medications, monitoring pets for signs of illness or discomfort, and caring for senior pets or those with special medical needs. I understand animal behavior, body language, and stress signals, allowing me to tailor my approach to each pet's personality and needs. Beyond my professional experience, I'm a lifelong animal lover pursuing veterinary school, so caring for animals is genuinely my passion. Whether your pet needs an energetic walking companion, a patient friend while you're away, or attentive care during a medical recovery, I'll treat them with the same compassion and attention I'd give my own pets. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. Right now, I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate a variety of booking types, including daytime visits, walks, overnight stays, and last-minute requests when my availability allows. Every pet is unique, so I always take the time to learn their normal routine and preferences before a visit. Whether I'm stopping in for a drop-in visit, taking your dog for a walk, or staying overnight, my goal is to keep your pet's routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I'll make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, exercise, playtime, fresh food and water, potty breaks, and any medications they may need.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals and feel very comfortable handling pets with different needs and personalities. I currently work in recreational therapy twice a week, which has helped me develop patience, responsibility, and strong attention to detail skills that carry over into providing safe and attentive pet care. As an online college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the time, consistency, an supervision they deserve. At home, our family has five dogs, so I am very familiar with managing multiple pets at once and maintaining consistent schedules. In addition to daily care, I have experience with overnight dog sitting that includes week-long stays where I handled feeding, walks, playtime and managing pet's normal routines. I have cared for puppies, senior dogs, and cats and I understand how to adjust care depending on energy level and age. I have also taken care of chickens while house sitting, so I am comfortable with a variety of animals beyond just dogs and cats. I am able to drive, which allies me to be available for drop ins, walks, and emergencies if needed. Overall, I am dedicated to making families feel safe with leaving their pets at home and making the pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I currently work part time and am an online college student. I work Wednesday and Friday nights from 4pm-9pm. For my college classes I do not have to be on any type of zoom, so I do my course work at my own pace. I provide care in my clients home so pets can stay in a familiar, low-stress environment and maintain their normal routine. I follow all care instructions including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any specific preferences the owner provides. Safety is my top priority. I make sure doors, gates, and crates are secure and keep pets aware from anything that may be unsafe. I work to build trust with both owners and pets by being consistent, patient, and respectful of each pet's personality. I also have reliable transportation, so if an emergency does arise I can provide additional needs.

About: I've owned dogs and cats most of my life and I love all types of animals! I currently have a German Shepherd, with alot of energy and a cat who matches that energy, so high energy pets are no problem! I can handle all types of dogs both large and small, young and senior, and enjoy walking them. I'm experienced at delivering medication if needed and I'm happy to feed, walk, play with and care for your animals. My time is flexible during the weekdays and I can be available on most weekends if needed. My goal is to help your animal feel at ease by providing the same loving care you would for them. I've been recently laid off so this has given me more time with my dog Calla. She is walked every day for approximately 3 miles. She loves playing with sticks and toys and also her little brother Jinx the American short haired cat. With this available extra time it gives me flexible hours for house visits and walking throughout the week and some weekends. Both my wife and I care for both of our pets daily which includes walking and playing with them. I am also capable of feeding your pet and administering medications if needed.

About: I am a reliable, responsible, and caring pet owner with hands-on experience caring for two dogs and one cat. Through daily pet care, I have developed a strong understanding of animal needs, including feeding schedules, exercise, grooming, administering basic care, cleaning up after pets, and recognizing changes in behavior that may indicate stress or illness. As a teacher on summer break, I am looking for a reliable source of income while school is out. My background in education reflects my patience, responsibility, and commitment to caring for others. I have experience caring for my own pets—two dogs and one cat—and understand the importance of consistency, trust, and attention to detail. Pet owners can count on me to be dependable, communicative, and attentive to their pets’ needs. I am excited to spend my summer helping families by providing quality pet care and companionship for their furry family members. 🐾 I have experience caring for my own two dogs and one cat, so I understand the importance of maintaining routines and making pets feel comfortable in a new environment. My resident cat is accustomed to other animals, and I carefully monitor all introductions and interactions to ensure everyone’s safety and comfort. If needed, I can also provide separate spaces for pets that prefer a quieter environment.

I have 2+ years of experience with taking care of bearded dragons and I’ve had a couple visits with snakes, specifically corn snakes. I work with any and all dogs/cats. I also like to send pics/videos of the pets to their owners daily for that reassurance that their fur baby is taken care of with the upmost care! I’m currently a full-time college student. I’m available any day and any time of the week. I’m usually available last minute as well and around holidays if needed. I currently have 4 dogs; 3 Yorkies and 1 Boarder Collie mix. They’re set on a twice per day feeding and their internal clock is set to those times. If I were to be in a clients home, I would do my best to ensure the animal stays in their routine and their feeding/medication is on schedule. They’d get plenty of play times and unlimited cuddles!

About: I’ve taken care of a variety of pets primarily the most experience with dogs since I was 13 years old. I’ve cared for a variety of breeds from puppies to senior dogs. Additionally I’ve also fostered and cared for cats when friends and neighbors have been away on vacation. I’ve been lucky to also own two dogs of my own, most recently Puddles. I ensure that all pets feel safe and earn their trust through regular walks, consistent schedules for meal times, snacks and tons of playtime as well. I try to stay as active with pets as possible. Furthermore I have experience caring for senior dogs that need medications and have alternative potty methods. I am happy to provide excellent care for you and your pet at any age. I currently am a freelancer looking to change direction in my career so I have flexible availability and can be available for short notices at the moment. I can provide pet care from morning til evenings. I have experience with crate training but with Puddles I took him out on walks 2-3x a day and also let him have yard access with a secured fence 2-3x a day. Each client is different so as long as I have some basic directions I usually can adjust to each pet’s needs. I know building trust and safety for our pets is super important.

About: Ever since I was a child, I have been taking care of animals in some capacity. From my time working in shelters across the state all the way to behavioral training, I have seen it all! I have 2 cats currently and a chocolate lab, but have owned cats and dogs throughout my life without pause. I would love to meet your fur babies too! I currently own my own business outside of pet care, which means I am free and available at any time to care for your fur babies! My schedule is completely open, and I am flexible to changes. Trust is vital when leaving your pets in the care of someone else. For me, it is simple: care for them as you’d want someone to care for your fur babies. During my time with your pets, my attention is undivided and attention to detail is thorough. Sure, it’s easy for those in a rush to forget a step or two. With me however, everything is completed to your standards and ONLY your standards!

FAQs for Dog Walking - Anchorage Anchors

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of August 2026, there are 2,327 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Anchorage Anchors. 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 your Anchorage Anchors. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Anchorage Anchors.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s 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 .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Anchorage Anchors. On Rover:

  • 91% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

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 short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
