“I thought Erica was awesome! My dog did, too! Not only did she walk him, she allowed him to play with a lab of similar age & when my dog returned, he was actually exhausted!!! I thought it could not be done. Thank you, Erica! I highly recommend her!!!”

“Eric did a wonderful job walking our pups! He was on time, we got pics of them out on their walk and had 2 happy pup faces when they got home! Thank you Eric!”


“Sarah is a reliable dog-walker, gets my pup great exercise on her walks with him, follows any instructions we have, asks questions, responds quickly, and gets the cutest pics of our boy! I have used her as a dog-walker multiple times now and will continue to in the future. Thanks Sarah!”


About: I have been an animal lover my whole life. I have 3 pups of my own and a variety of exotic animals. I have worked as a dog trainer and volunteer at the vet and rescues. I am very active so long walks are my favorite and I have a soft spot for old animals. I communicate very well. The standards I have for the care of my pets is exceptionally high and I provide that same experience for every pet I take care. I currently work from home so my schedule is pretty flexible. I am available to do check ins or walks multiple times a day, if needed, and also have weekend availability. I am a big fan of communication(and photos!) but am trustworthy and reliable enough that you can also be out of service and rely on me to take care of things.

“Ninia has done a wonderful job at walking Denali! She has been kind, a great communicator, asked some great questions that I did not think of, and really seems to care for animals so much! I’m thankful I have found her!”


“Tori was responsive and very communicative, and paid great attention to our pup! I appreciated that she was willing to do a meet-and-greet beforehand, to make sure our pup was comfortable with her and wouldn't be surprised by a stranger. Thank you!! Would definitely book again.”


“Ariel is so so great. She has walked our dogs a few times now and this last time I realized in the middle of the day that I forgot to top off their water bowl and was worried they would drink all the water hours before we got home. When I returned home I saw that Ariel had noticed it was low and refilled it without me even mentioning anything. This exemplifies how committed she is to providing great care.”


About: I've been watching my own personal pets as well as other peoples since I was a young child. I trained my dog, a half lab/half Weimeraner to retrieve at a pretty high level. I had a three legged cat as well. I've been living with dogs my entire life and cats for the last eight years I work remotely and would prefer to house sit in a place where I can also do my work. Your pet would have someone around the majority of the time and I can take care of other business. According to the conditions and the pets stated needs. I love walking dogs and retrieving with them and it is always nice giving cats catnip if they like catnip.

About: Whether you've got a playful pup, a chill kitty, or a scaly sidekick, I've got them covered with dependable, loving care. I specialize in quick visits, feedings, walks, and snuggles (or heat lamp hangs!) tailored to each pet's needs. Big or small, furry or scaly - I treat your pet like my own. As a remote worker, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide attentive, timely care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs a midday check-in, regular walks, or some extra company hip, I'm nearby and ready when they need me most. Pet's saftey and comfort are my top priority - keeping a calm, trustworthy environment where they feel secure. I am familiar with common behaviors tied to separation anxiety and illness. I will also ask you your pets specifics behaviors (you do know them best) & will always check in with you if I notice anything outside the norm. You can count on me to follow routines, respect boundaries, and treat your pet with care.

“Laura was reliable and responsible. We have a sketchy dog and we were very comfortable with how she handled him. We will absolutely book her next time we need someone to walk Frank.”


“Alexis was super responsive when communicating to set things up, and reliable when we needed her to be here. She seemed to have as much fun as my pups did! Will definitely book her again.”


About: Hello! My name is Tylin, I am passionate about providing loving and reliable care for dogs of all ages and needs.

In addition to my experience with senior dogs, I have cared for dogs of various breeds and temperaments. Whether your furry friend needs a brisk walk, playtime, or simply some company, I am here to provide the best care possible. I look forward to meeting your beloved pet and giving them the attention and care they deserve! I am currently working as a general manager for a chain of tanning salons which gives me flexibility to stop in between and let fur babies out! I work Mon-Thurs either in the valley or Anchorage so some acceptance on bookings will depend on which location I am at for the day! I do make the schedules though so if I’m given a 2 week advance I can definitely work around it! Security Measures Regularly checking doors, windows, and overall home security to ensure your property is safe. •Peace of Mind- Keeping you updated with regular check-ins and photos, so you can relax knowing everything is well taken care of. •Household Tasks- Collecting mail, watering plants, and maintaining a tidy home to ensure everything is in order when you return. •Trustworthy Presence- Respecting your home and privacy while ensuring a lived-in appearance to deter any potential issues.

About: I have been taking care of animals all my life. I have owned several dogs, several cats, a couple rats, a parrot, a turtle, and guinea pigs. I have taken care of lots of friends/families/neighbors pets as well including animals with seperation anxiety, livestock such as chickens, mini pigs, and goats, and animals that have been pregnant(dogs/cats). I’ve had experience administering daily medications for a fellow coworker’s senior dog for a few weeks.. If you choose me to take care of your fur babies I promise to be there on scheduled routine time, walk them, feed them, make them feel loved 🥰 I am a stay at home mom, so my pets are always taken care of all throughout the day. I would have no problem attending to your pets as long as we have a routine scheduled out :) I always feed and water my pets first thing in the morning and later in in the evening before I eat. My dogs have a fenced yard, and I always leash them out in public. I would be happy to abide by any requests/rules/specifications you have with your pet. I will put their care as a top priority!

About: I'm a professional, fun, and responsible traveling sitter! I've been petsitting for over 20 years now and have loved every minute of it! Several years ago I quit my corporate job to be able to travel and pet sit. I've been so fortunate that I've been able to travel all over the country spending time with incredible pets! I am enjoying the freedom of life so I'm willing to travel all over the US to petsit, so message me about sitting, no matter where you are located! As well as dogs and cats, I have cared for chickens, rabbits, birds, reptiles, small rodents, and horses. What started as a "favor" to a coworker, has turned into over 2 decades of happiness, fun, and adventures in pet and house sitting! I have been highly sought after for my services and have even been flown around the country to care for pets. I love dogs and cats and completely understand how important it is to make them feel safe and loved while their family is away. I'm also well versed in what it takes to keep a house running while owners are away. I happily take care of any chores, ranging from tending of gardens to mail pickup. The care level I’ve given has varied from puppy house training, to older pets requiring advanced medical treatment. I have also volunteered and fostered with animal rescue for over 15 years, so I have dealt with a variety of dog behavioral issues. I've fostered dogs ranging from 4 week old bottle fed puppies to dogs recovering from traumatic surgeries. I'm a clean, respectable, and responsible adult. I'm a non-smoker, non-drug user, and non-drinker. I keep a very clean house and am always respectful of my surroundings. I'm friendly, patient, caring, gentle, and get along with everyone - human and non-human :) I love being out in nature and being active, but also don't mind spending time with those pets who just enjoy lounging around the house. I like to have a "meet and greet" prior to any commitments, to ensure that you and your pets are comfortable with me, and I'm able to provide what everyone needs. I care for pets in my client’s home in the manner that the clients and pets expect. If they are used to walks, they get walks. If they enjoy pool time, they get pool time. If they typically sleep on the bed with a human, they get that :) I’m all about what the pets are typically used to and enjoy! I do small amounts of work online, have to help out with family and friends in the area on occasion, and do have some drop-in and walking clients, but besides those small commitments, my time is dedicated to the animals I’m caring for. I’m all about the pet’s schedule and can usually accommodate it very well! I care for pets in the client’s home in hopefully the same manner they do! I want to learn and follow the pets’ routines and schedules so that clients returning home have a flawless transition.

“After getting to know Morgan, I can confidently say she has always been one of the most kind, responsible, and trustworthy people I know. Her love for animals has been clear since I first met her, and it shines through in the way she cares for her own dog, Wren. Morgan is patient, attentive, and genuinely devoted to the well-being of any animal in her care. I know for certain that she has and will fight for the safety of the animals in her care. She has a natural connection with pets and always makes them feel comfortable, loved, and safe. She has also cared for our four dogs while we’ve been away, and I couldn’t ask for a better person to trust with them. She follows every instruction closely, keeps us updated, and makes sure the dogs are happy and relaxed while we’re gone. They absolutely love her! I always come home to happy pets and a sense of ease knowing they were in such responsible hands. I highly recommend Morgan to anyone looking for a loving and reliable pet caretaker.”

Marisa K.
“Marisa is a great pet sitter! I left for a week on a school trip to New York with my son leaving my 2 dogs and 2 cats in her care. One of my dogs was still house training at the time and she had no issues accommodating that. She maintained communication and set my mind at ease so I didn’t have to worry about my pets at all while I was away. I will definitely be asking her to watch them again whenever I leave town.”


Jenna S.

“Jenna has watched my 4 dogs on multiple occasions over the years. I always knew my dogs were in good hands and being well cared for while I was away. Unlike some of the other sitters I have had, Jenna made sure my dogs were walked and had play time every day. She is trustworthy and passionate about animals. I also know Jenna from a rescue organization where she ran clinics and fostered numerous dogs. I would have no reservations in recommending Jenna!”
