About: I love animals and being able to help you with your pet care needs. I would love spending some of that time on your canine companions or feline friend. I have owned dogs and cats with a variety of personalities and concerns and love them all. My dogs have ranged in age from one to twenty and eight pound an to eighty. Every pet is unique and special. I have watched dogs and cats off and on for friends and family for more than ten years. I have also raised small animals and reptiles. I am friendly but firm and will treat your furry friend like my own. They will get lots of love, exercise, and petting. Please give me a chance to win over your pet. I am a teacher so busy during the school year and mostly free during the summer. During the school year I am available evenings and weekends. I have two fenced yards. A small one connected to the house with a dog door and a bigger one. I have chickens who live in the bigger one during the summer. I am not currently having doggie visitors overnight as my cats don't like it.

About: Iâm a lifelong dog lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs with different ages, personalities, and needs. I have two dogs of my own, including a senior dog and another who has a lifelong injury requiring extra attention and specialized care. Caring for them has taught me to be patient, observant, and attentive to the little thingsâwhether that means adjusting activities, following specific routines, giving extra time and reassurance, or simply knowing when a dog needs to slow down and rest. I understand that every pet is different, and Iâll take the time to learn your petâs routine, personality, and individual needs. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while youâre away. As a work-from-home professional, pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. My flexible schedule allows me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, walks, playtime, and regular potty breaks throughout the day. Iâm home most of the time, so your pet wonât be left alone for long stretches. I enjoy having pets around while I work and can easily incorporate their needs into my day while still maintaining a reliable routine. Whether your pet needs extra attention, a midday walk, medication reminders, or simply someone nearby, Iâm able to provide consistent, loving care. Your petâs safety and well-being are my top priorities. I know how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family, and I take that responsibility seriously. I provide a calm, clean, and comfortable environment where pets can feel secure and at home. Iâm attentive to their behavior, routines, and individual needs, and Iâm careful to maintain a safe environment both inside and outside the home. My goal is simple: when youâre away, you can feel confident knowing your pet is safe, cared for, and receiving plenty of love and attention.

About: Iâve spent my life around dogs of all shapes and sizes, and caring for them has always been an important part of my life. With 3 years experience working in a dog boarding facility and 3 dogs of my own, I understand the importance of attentive care, structure and consistent routines! I provide structured walks, mental stimulation, and exercise to help keep your dog happy, healthy, and fulfilled, while reinforcing good manners and maintaining the training and routines youâve established at home. For in-home boarding, your dog will stay in a comfortable home environment with a fenced in yard, heated garage for chilly days and a large, open living area for indoor activities and relaxing. All pets in my care sleep in kennels at night to ensure a safe, cozy place to rest. I currently have a flexible schedule and completely open availability, I have 3 dogs of my own and your pet will be treated as part of the family! I have a fenced in yard, and three friendly dogs who would love to welcome your pups into our daily schedule of play, walks and activities! Your dog will always be attended to, and have a safe kenneled space to rest in if ever unsupervised.
About: With a strong background in working and high-drive dogsâespecially German ShepherdsâI bring a structured, intentional approach to pet care. Iâve raised and trained multiple dogs through advanced obedience and sport foundations, with a focus on clear communication, calm handling, and routine. My experience has shown me that not every dog thrives in chaotic daycare environments, which is why I prioritize individualized care, low-stress transitions, and purposeful engagement. Whether your dog needs stability, mental stimulation, or simply a quiet, well-managed space, theyâll be handled with the same level of consistency and respect I expect for my own dogs. Pet care is built into my daily routine from start to finishâitâs not something I squeeze in, itâs something I structure my day around. Mornings begin early with kennel checks, potty rotations, feeding, and a calm reset for the day. Throughout the day, I run scheduled rotations for exercise, engagement, and rest, ensuring each dog gets individual attention without overstimulation. Evenings include additional potty breaks, wind-down time, and a final check to make sure every dog is settled, clean, and comfortable. This consistent, predictable routine allows me to provide attentive, low-stress care while maintaining a calm and controlled environment for every dog. In my home, pets are cared for in a calm, structured environment designed to reduce stress and provide clarity. Each dog is housed individually and follows a consistent daily routine that includes scheduled potty breaks, feeding, rest, and purposeful engagement. I focus on calm handling, clean transitions, and one-on-one attention rather than group chaos or open play. Dogs are monitored closely throughout the day, and their environment is kept clean, quiet, and predictable. This approach is especially well-suited for working, high-drive, or more sensitive dogs who benefit from structure, routine, and thoughtful care.
About: My husband and I lost our great Pyrenees last year :( We miss him. We would like to watch another dog because our shihtzu is getting older and does not like to hike anymore. She does enjoy her walks tho. We like all types of dogs as long as they are well behaved and get along with cats and other dogs. Our home is 2,800 sq ft and we have a 10,000 sq ft yard. We can only host 1 dog so your dog will be well taken care. We prefer only one at a time since we also have a cat but may make an exception if from the same family . I am currently working part time but work from home most of the time. My husband also works from home . We walk our dog 2 -3 times a day. We like to hike and during the summer and in winter we walk the trails that are right next to our home. I have a fenced yard , but can also crate your baby if you prefer. We have everything needed for a big or little dog.

About: Hello! We would love to be part of your petâs support circle! My husband and I both grew up with pets as family members and cared for one of our own. We love the energy and joy they bring to life! We are now a family of 3 with a sweet, gentle daughter who loves animals as well. She has been asking for a pet but as weâre not able to commit at this time, we would love to dedicate our time to the part-time care of yours! We are ready to love your furry palđ I am a full-time Mom so am available most of the day. We can adjust our day to working with your petâs needs and preferences as well! We will treat your loved one with the utmost care and attention and will provide and shower them with lots of sweet lovies all day long!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Chugiak on Rover is $61.05 per day (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Doggy Day Care easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Doggy Day Care. For more information on service fees, click here .

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your petâwhether thatâs early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Chugiak commute.
If your schedule changes, itâs best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dogâs fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0â7 kilograms and/or 7â18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pupâs socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dogâs pack, check the sitterâs profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dogâs vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitterâs care.
Many sitters in AK ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, youâre adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Every sitter 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 Justiceâs 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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Roverâs 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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 sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters 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.

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.
