“Erica checked in on our cat while we were out of town for a few days—she was punctual, communicative, and our cat clearly enjoyed playing with her! We will definitely contact Erica again when we need somebody to watch our cat.”
2. Victoria C.
“Victoria was great! She responded quickly and was available for a last minute booking. She did a meet and greet with my 2 cats and answered all my questions. She even went the extra mile to set out my garbage can when I asked her. I love the communication through the app and the multiple photos I received daily. I will definitely be booking through her again in the future if she is available when needed.”

7. Shelley B.
“Shelly was great! She had excellent communication including being flexible with our initial meet n’ greet, letting me know she has arrived at my home, and sending me pics of my pups playing in the yard. She is professional, personable, and I feel very comfortable trusting her with my pups and home.”
8. Rachel B.
“Rachel is someone we would recommend to ANYONE! She is a true animal lover finding joy in any pet she meets. She has the sweetest, most loving personality and is truly responsible! She not only watched our dogs but stayed in our home numerous times and did a phenomenal job! You will not be disappointed in her care of your pet and she is a joy to know as a person! I highly recommend her services!”
9. Alexandra B.
“What can I say except - AWESOME! I booked Alex for drop in visits while I was out of town. I always have someone stay the night with my 3 pups, but was unable to find anyone available for overnights. I was concerned, but after her first drop in visit, I knew they were in excellent hands. She sent me a great newsy letter of their visit, video's, pictures and texts. I've never had anyone put such care into my pups well-being. She obviously loves animals...you can hear it in her voice/messages. I have a cockatiel too - and never mentioned anything about him. She even checked on him and gave him clean water and food. I'm always hesitant to leave my pups, but I will not worry again - I'll just make sure she's available before I take my trip! :)”
10. Crystal W.
“I have known Crystal for many years. She has watched my pets often and always does a very good job. I rarely trust anyone else. She has had pets of her own for years and is extremely experienced.”
11. Aubrey R.
“Aubrey is great with my dogs and cat! She treats them like her own and I can tell they are always very happy when they are with her. I would 100% always book with her.”
12. Rinnah A.
“We used Rinnah for the first time to do a drop in visit and we loved her! She was very responsive when we first sent our request and was able to come over ahead of time to meet our dogs. During the check in, she confirmed in the morning and let us know when she was arriving. She took the 30 minutes to let them out and play with them, which we so appreciated since we kennel them when we are gone. Not only did she communicate with us during the visit, but she also sent us videos and pictures. I think we found our new dog sitter and will be using her more in the future. Thank you, Rinnah, for loving on our dogs!”
13. Molly B.
“Molly is an attentive and super caring pet caregiver! Would definitely recommend her to watch over your pets :) She is a very responsible person!”
14. Tessa M.
“Tessa was awesome! Great communication from start to finish, and she provided some great pictures of her interactions with my two silly cats while I was visiting family out of state during the holidays. I came home to healthy, happy pets after a 12 day trip - couldn't have asked for anything better! Would definitely recommend, and will book again during my future travels.”
15. Emma W.
About: I’ve been watching fur babies since 2007! I provide pet sitting in my home. I have owned almost every kind of pet at some point and can care for them all. All I ask is that food is provided or extra money to purchase more (if need be). Most of my experience is with cats and dogs. If an animal is on medication then I would need instructions along with the medicine. I do have experience administering medications for a handful of previous jobs. I have a spacious townhome where your pet would stay with a fenced yard. I hope you consider me as an option :) I work full time Monday-Thursday 7:30-3:30 and I get an hour every day for lunch. I’m always available from Friday to Sunday so weekends work very well for me and that’s typically when I’ll go on lengthier walks to get some serious exercise in. I have a fenced in yard and two well loved fur babies to keep your pup company while I work during the day. I always come home for lunch and my husband is home by 11am to take care of the animals and our child.
16. Lindsey S.
“Lindsey did a great job taking care of our senior kitty! She took the time to give her pets and play with her during her drop-in visits, and sent us daily pictures!”
17. Elizabeth D.
“Elizabeth D. has watched our two dogs multiple times over the years. She is dependable and cares for them deeply. She has a wonderful ability to be both loving yet authoritative with the dogs at the same time. This leads to a good situation where the dogs know who is boss. We have always returned to happy, well mannered dogs and to a house that is picked up and cared for.”
18. Tynesha D.
“Tynesha 'Nesha" D. became my friend shortly after moved to Anchorage, over 7 years ago, and ever since then I now consider her my family. She's stuck in my life, it happens. I remember one time, I left on a trip from Anchorage to Las Vegas, and due to procrastination, I was unable to get my Great Dane "Sniper", in dog care before leaving. So, while at the airport, before boarding I called around for a dog care, then called Nesha and told her the scenario and where to find my hidden house key, and she took Sniper to the dog care. There were many other times I was away from the House temporarily, and Nesha watched Sniper, making sure he had food and water and was let outside. 100% reliable and loved, Nesha is.”
19. Sherri H.
“Sherri really helped me out when I was in a bind, extremely awesome communication. Thanks for taking care of my Oakley. She took great pics of him too.”
20. Amanda N.
“Amanda has watched my cat on two separate occasions now. She’s a great sitter who obviously cares a lot and has a lot of experience with animals. My kitty always seems happy and well taken care of. She’s quickly becoming my go to sitter!”
