Dog Boarding in Birchwood, Anchorage

“I have a 10-month old golden retriever who I had not left for an extended period of time and I was nervous about being away from her for a full week. I immediately felt reassured by Amanda’s professionalism and compassion. She was very accommodating with arranging a meet and greet, took an interest in my pup right away, and even offered to reinforce her training. Her place is set up perfectly with a puppy-proof fenced off indoor play space, a lovely fenced in backyard, and a family of dog-lovers. Appreciated the daily updates, esp as my pup had gotten sick prior to drop-off and required some new meds and attention to her diet. Amanda handled all of that with ease and I came home to a healthy, happy, fluffy and clean dog! Will definitely book again.”

“This was our first time using Rover and Ashley B. was an angel sent straight from heaven. We received several daily updates and photos. Our old man had a few medical incidents and she was thorough and so caring about getting him taken care of. We felt so confident that our dogs were being totally spoilt and loved and well taken care of. We will definitely be using Ashley for future trips and are pretty certain Zeik and Duke will be excited to stay with her family again.”

“Ashley was incredible to work with. This was the longest time we've been away from our pup and Sarah provided constant updates and pics of our girl which put us at ease. She had great communication and it was easy to tell she's truly cares for your pup. 110% recommendation!”

“Adrienne took great care of my pup. Would have her watch him again any time”

About: I love animals and dogs especially. I have house sat many animals in the past for friends and family. My family had 2 or pets all my years growing up. I have two dogs now. I have lots of energy to burn as I attend college, so this seemed like a great fit. My schedule is pretty flexible, except my two in person classes Monday and Thursday mornings 9am-1pm. I'd prefer afternoon visits/walks. I am not available for overnight stays at other peoples homes. I have a fence yard and two friendly dogs at home if your pup wants to play. I have two crates if your animal is less social. I live in a small friendly neighborhood in Chugiak, next to a park, for getting out. I'm a full time mom, so I won't be able to stay overnights anywhere, but I surely don't mind visiting pets in their own home where they're comfy. I'm a tidy person and will always respect your home.

“Carissa is a fabulous boarder! She handled our excitable Golden puppy & dachshund as a pro and they returned home from their stay happy & excited!”

“Went above and beyond to help me get my pup dropped off after I had an unexpected change to my schedule. Kept me updated with lots of pictures, and I came back to a very happy dog!”

“Faelyn and her family were very welcoming. We had a great meet and greet to get everyone acquainted, she clearly has a lot of experience and patience with animals. Once our dog was dropped off for the visit, Faelyn was very diligent about sending updates and pictures through the stay. Our pup was completely at ease and happy as a clam when we returned. We will definitely use Faelyn again next time we leave town!”

“This is it, we found the one… Gloria! Just wonderful ? Gloria is the best! Walter had such a good time, I swear the dog was smiling in every photo. We were worried he was going to be depressed when he got home because he was having such a great time at Gloria’s house. ? We’ve taken him to a doggie daycare before and he always came home different, dirty and ragged, this time he was so happy, he looked great and was himself, we’re glad we switched. Thankful we found Gloria and Max. Thank you guys, you’re both super awesome ? Walter will definitely be back.”

“Taneisha and her partner were wonderful. Hans seems to be in good shape after his stay there. Received quick responses and regular updates. Would go back.”

“Will definitely recommend! She is very attentive to details and very good a taking care of my pet and my home, unlike other experiences that I had, she always kept me updated with any changes in my pet's behavior, I've hired people from agencies and still I havent find someone as reliable or trustworthy. She is always willing to communicate any changes or any potential concerns which makes me feel more confident about trusting her with what's important.”

“Brianna looked after my dog Lillie and was so great! She took her on numerous walks, and sent many photos of their adventures. I was very thankful to know she was in good hands, and definitely recommend Brianna as an excellent caretaker for your furry family members.”

About: I’ve had my shih tzu for 10 years through every stage of the good and the bad (multiple surgeries). I consider my dogs family, so yours will be extra family! I work full time Monday-Thursday, so I’m available every Friday-Sunday! Any time during those days work for me! I can check in multiple times those days if needed. I will walk your dogs around the neighborhood or whatever you prefer! If you’re okay with it, I can probably bring one of mine too for a doggy date!

“Ryan did really well with our dogs. We were able to visit his home before boarding them to see where our dogs would be staying. All information and directions we gave him were followed. We have one dog who is an escape artist and he listened to our concerns. He was able to send us pictures while we were gone. His schedule was also pretty open for when we needed to drop off and pick up. We would definitely use him again.”

“Shiela was so amazing, she listened to all of my “helicopter mom” concerns enthusiastically and took amazing care of our pup. Her puppy is well trained and was a great companion to our 10 year old mix. Book her before she becomes the most popular dog sitter on Rover!”

“I have watched Olivia Tibbetts grow up to be a very intelligent, responsible young woman. Olivia has a passion for all animals. She has helped us train and work our horses over the years. She has had animals to care for most of her life. Olivia lights up when she is around them and when she talks about them. I am very happy to have Olivia work with our animals and I would recommend her to others.”

“Bianca has watched over our dogs a couple times over the last year. And she has always done an excellent job. Our dogs just love her. She is always responsive and sending updates about how they are doing, we greatly appreciate her service.”

“Always my go-to dog sitter! Our dogs play great together in the large fenced in backyard and love receiving all the pictures/videos. Sarah is very trustworthy & caring and gives my girls all the snuggles they deserve while I’m awhile. 10/10 would recommend!”

“Sharon and Michael were great with Scout! This was his first boarding experience with anyone outside of family and we were a little nervous, but he did great. He seemed comfortable when we left him and happy to see see us when we picked him up, but not overly eager to leave. They were very understanding, accommodating, and responsive. Great experience and we would definitely use them if we were travelling again in the area and needed dog care!”

“Elly is so kind and loving and compassionate about pets! She really gives her love and attention to the fur kids. She is dependable and trustworthy.”
