Pet Sitting Chugiak

“Warren stepped up to check in on Nyx and Woody when we had a need at short notice. He made sure the dogs had food, water, attention and got their meds. He also took the time to clean up after old man Woody when he messed in the house. The dogs always looked happy in the check in photos. Would definitely book again.”

“Amanda has been so helpful and flexible with my last minute requests for drop in visits. Thank you for taking great care of Dash and keeping me updated with great pics and visit descriptions!”

About: I am a reliable caregiver for pets, growing up with dogs and now having cats of my own. I know the feeling of leaving my pets alone and want to ensure that you have comfort knowing your own will be taking care of according to your request. During the week, I am happy to let dogs out or take them on a walk after my work hours. I am flexible for house sitting, potty breaks, and walks on the weekends Friday night through Mondays. From the type of feed, to the comfort of my animals, it is my priority to ensure their environment is stress free, yet entertaining. I commit to doing the same for you when servicing your requests.

“Ashley was amazing and incredibly professional. She helped us when we waited way too late to board our dogs so she did drop ins when we had to leave our dogs at home. She cared for them and really made them feel less anxious. She did daily updates and when we came home they were all super happy and healthy! Would recommend and will definitely book again!”

“Brianne was wonderful with drop-in visits for our three pups over a long weekend! She sent us pictures and hung out with them for the full time every single visit, and everyone looked calm and happy throughout. Communication was great, including arranging some schedule changes and medications to manage one of our dog's weather anxiety (but she was already on top of it anyway!). Really appreciate and recommend her!”

About: Much like Romulus and Remus, I was raised with/by dogs growing up! I absolutely love dogs! Big dogs, lil dogs, fluffy dogs, energetic dogs, old dogs all dogs are great. I am currently without my 5 year old black lab for the next 6 months and want to get pets and walks to make up for the lost time with my pupperonni! My dogs name is Wanda, she is great but a ball of energy (like most labs). I have had her since she was a puppy and she is crate trained, house trained and just a very good girl! She is the light and soul of my life (dont tell my GF) ! I am trying to be healthy and would love to have a dog to walk with when I explore Sumter! I am shift work but will balance my schedule accordingly to walk dogs or let them out when required. I mostly work night shift allowing me to have the flexibility during the day to get out for walks and stay active! I am a 30 year old guy with no kids. My dog is my kid. My daily routine I had with Wanda was to let out every morning and play fetch with her or walk her. I would then bring her inside to calm down, I’d shower and then go back downstairs to feed her since she’s caught her breathe and cooled off by then. After she’s eaten I would let her out potty again and then she is chill for the day until evening time where I would bring her out on another walk or a swim at my cottage at home which I’m dearly missing and then when she has calmed down from that I would feed her dinner. Most nights I try to do 10ish mins of training with her and she loves the treats anyways so it’s very easy. She knows sit, stay (for a long time and a big distance), paw (both), she can spin, she can do a tunnel (go between my legs) and she can spin around me and sit on my left or right side! I will admit she is a lab and very food driven/motivated so training her was relatively easy with the right treats. She is the best and I miss my dog and want to be able to play with other people’s dogs!

“Super communicative, great, and super!”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and currently have two corgis of my own, Chimi and Churro, so caring for pups is just part of my everyday life. They’re my little adventure buddies, and we love being outside together, going on walks, exploring trails, and soaking up fresh air. Because I’m used to handling my own energetic dogs daily, I’m comfortable with all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Whether your dog needs a long walk to burn energy, playtime, or slower, gentle care, I’m happy to match their pace and routine. My goal is lots of love, exercise, and a very happy dog. Im currently working at a dental office Monday-Thursday 9am-5:30pm. So I’m available most weekdays if you need a quick walk or drop-ins, if not I'm available Friday-Sunday with whatever pet needs you may have! In your home, I’m respectful, clean, and treat your space like my own. I make sure pets feel calm and comfortable by keeping their environment familiar and stress-free. I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. On walks, dogs are always leashed and closely supervised. I carefully follow feeding schedules, routines, and any special instructions to keep things consistent and stress-free.

“Kayle was wonderful with Elliot! We booked her for three hour-long drop-in visits while we were away for a long train trip to Seward and back, and she was reliable, attentive, and clearly spent the time making sure Elliot had a great day too. She took him on nice long walks, played with him, took care of his meals and routine, and sent fantastic Rover cards with lots of photos and walk updates. We had limited cell service for much of the day, so being able to check in and see exactly what Elliot had been up to was incredibly reassuring. He looked happy and comfortable with her, and we came home to a very content dog. We would absolutely trust Kayle with Elliot again and will happily book her in the future.”

About: I volunteer at the local shelter (AARF) every weekend and I grew up with multiple dogs! Animals are my absolute favorite and I am pretty versatile. I’m active duty but im free anytime after work (5pm) and im always free on the weekends! Im pretty good at fitting people/work into my schedule. I live in the barracks so normally I wouldn’t have animals come over to my place, but I always make sure my clients pets have a great experience and try and give them the most engaging/stimulating experience possible!

“She was absolutely wonderful. She was able to soothe my dog right away. She is responsible. I will ask her to help me again.”

About: Hello! My name is Jenn. I have been pet sitting for over 10 years and have been fostering dogs locally since 2023. My family and I have pet-sat and fostered a wide range of pets; everything from kittens to cats, 8 week old puppies to senior dogs, dogs with little to no experience indoors to seasoned house pets. We currently have two cats, a dog, and chickens. I work from home, so I am able to spend most of the day with your furbaby. You can trust me to follow your rules and instructions carefully and fully. I also make it a priority to ensure pets get the exercise and stimulation they need. When taking care of other people’s animals, I send lots of photos and videos. I want you to feel comfortable and confident leaving your pets in my care. Please reach out if you have any questions! I work part time from home, meaning I am available to treat your pets like I treat my own. My pets are spoiled, but with foundational rules. For dogs - have a fenced-in yard for safe pottying. I have a friendly adult female dog - spayed, and two well-behaved cats. I have local trails available where I exercise my own dog. I typically have the dogs I sit sleep in a crate overnight, so I would love to know your dog's experience with crating. Also, since I have cats and chickens, I cannot accommodate a dog with a heavy prey-drive. For cats, I have an unused bedroom set up as a private suite, that my own pets do not have access to. This room has a window and plenty of cat-napping options. I live on a quiet street. I am available to give your cat as much attention as they desire.

About: Hi, my name is Dani. I live in Anchorage but am open to travel. I have had dogs and cats throughout my entire life. I have had birds and lizards and am very adept in what your pets needs. Fun side note, I've done ranch work and know horse and livestock care so if you're in need of that, I got you. I have my own transportation. I understand the importance of your pets health and pets need extra love and care when their owners are gone. A few years ago when I left on a trip I had a medical emergency with my dog who fell into depression when I was gone. I want to provide the very best care I can to every animal I come across. I work part time currently so I am available a lot and can schedule around your pet and it's needs. I understand pets missing their owners. I miss mine when i'm away for a few hours. I have 2 large dogs. I'm very big on training and maintaining their energy and attitude. I go on walks pretty often with my dogs as i'm a pretty active person.

About: I've been a dedicated pet caregiver for 5 years, including 2 years caring for a senior dog in North Carolina - managing medication schedules and gentle exercise routines - plus ongoing care for my own cat at home. I also have experience training puppies on basic commands like sit, stay, and come, using positive reinforcement. I'm committed to attentive, compassionate care and treat every pet like family. Im flexible for now You can calls or text to fit a schedule also i can do overnight if you need . Please let me know :) As a pet caregiver, I offer both in-home pet care services for my clients' pets as well as care for my own pets at home. When caring for pets in my own home, I ensure that they have plenty of food and fresh water, clean litter boxes (if applicable), and comfortable bedding. I also provide daily playtime and exercise, as well as regular grooming to keep them looking and feeling their best. When providing care in my clients' homes, I follow their specific instructions regarding feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any other special needs their pets may have. I make sure to provide plenty of attention and affection to make the pets feel comfortable and happy in their own environment.

“Meghan watched our two cats for a week and I could not recommend her enough! She took the time to write cute, witty updates and took plenty of photos (per my request). She was wonderful working with my extremely shy cat and had him running up to greet her when most sitters never see him the whole time. Meghan is reliable, friendly and went above and beyond gaining our cat‘s trust. I’m so happy I found someone who made traveling a little less stressful!”

“Izabelle is very reliable and punctual. She sent pics of each visit and added an additional visit when our flight was delayed. I would recommend her for for your pets needs.”

About: I HAVE BASE ACCESS TO JBER! I've been a lifelong dog enthusiast, growing up alongside my family's King Charles Cocker Spaniel and my grandparents' Yorkie. Currently, I am a dog mom to a handsome Border Collie, whom I adopted from a shelter when he was three months old. From the early days of potty training to fostering socialization and good manners, I've been deeply involved in every aspect of his life. My dedication to being the best dog mom led me to extensive research on dog health and training. In addition to my commitment to canine companionship, despite the demands of my work schedule, I've navigated the need for dog walkers and caretakers, giving me firsthand insight into the challenges pet owners face. Drawing from this experience, I assure you that your pup will receive the utmost care, and I'll keep you updated every step of the way. Both my canine companion and I are highly active—I'm a committed marathon runner, and now that my pup has the green light for longer runs, we share this activity regularly. For more energetic or running enthusiast dogs, I'm more than happy to do extended walks or jogs, ensuring they expend all their energy and remain content. With my Border Collie, I've explored puzzles and interactive games, accumulating a variety to provide mental stimulation. If your pup craves mental challenges, count on me to offer engaging activities. I also enjoy teaching dogs new tricks and would be thrilled to assist with your pup's training. Handling the grooming needs of my double-coated Border Collie has made me adept at the task. If your pup is grooming trained, I'm more than willing to take care of brushing and basic grooming. My caregiving extends beyond my own dog, as I've also cared for friends' large and older dogs, understanding the unique needs of those requiring extra downtime. I bring additional expertise to the table, having experience with giving medication, as my own pup has needed to take multiple medications in the past. I am currently working a job with weird days and hours and happy to walk or drop in at weird times during the week as long as I am not working. I am available for drop in visits and walks. I will follow all of your instructions perfectly and assure that your dog is as happy as can be. I am happy to do puzzles, go on long walks or runs, have snuggle sessions, work on training, make sure they have water and food, do any grooming you may wish, etc. with your pup during our hang out time.

About: I’m a dog parent of a 3 yo husky mix who keeps me busy. She’s more social than I am, & most days, I’m chasing her around trying to keep up. I like to bike, ski, and play in the mountains, and it’s pretty easy to add another pet into the mix of our high energy lifestyle. Dog sitting was my first job, and I’ve had great experiences with Rover as a pet parent & a sitter I work full time, but I take an hour lunch break every day for dog walks. A typical day starts with a 30 min walk in the morning, 45 mins at lunch, and another 30-60 mins in the evenings. Love to take the dogs hiking, or out to one of the beaches in town, or up on a hiking trail. I have a friendly dog at home, & I require a meet & greet before overnight stays to make sure the personalities work together. Please bring a crate with you if your pet is used to having their own. Please also bring or identify whatever toys, treats, comfort items they can’t live without.

About: Hello! My name is Gunnar Neuman and I love to care for pets. I have a White Labrador named Ruger and have cared for him for 4 years or so. I have also cared for other dogs by feeding them and taking them for walks. I love it!! I would love to take the dogs to a nice area where they can be free and safe. I love getting out and going to scenic places. I cannot homesit at this time because I am living in an apartment, but I would love to come to your home and care for your dog(s), or take your dog(s) out for a walk.

“Maren was very reliable and had great communication with us on the 3 days she helped out with our dog. Would definitely book with her again in the future!”
