Doggy Day Care Chugiak

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.

“Bami had a great time with Ashley. She worked with us to accommodate our timeline needs and really helped us out. Would definitely use Ashley to watch Bami in the future, if the need arises.”

About: I’m currently taking some time at home between careers, so I have plenty of time and attention to give your pup! I have a sweet, well mannered two year old pup named Levi who loves making new friends. We enjoy two walks a day, plenty of indoor playtime, and lots of cuddles. I also cared for dogs while I was in college, and it brought me so much joy so I’d love to start doing it again! I’m home throughout the day, so I can easily tailor my schedule to your pet’s routine and needs. I typically only leave for a hour or so a few times a week to go to run errands or pickup groceries so your pup will receive plenty of attention, and playtime! I have a fully fenced yard where we can safely play and enjoy the fresh air, as well as a deck where we love to relax together in the evenings. Inside, there is a comfy couch, or your pup is welcome get cozy on one of the many dog beds and blankets throughout the house.

About: With a strong background in working and high-drive dogs—especially German Shepherds—I bring a structured, intentional approach to pet care. I’ve 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, they’ll 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 finish—it’s not something I squeeze in, it’s 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.

“Another wonderful week with Justin! Justin and his family take exceptional care of Felix. Cheerful communication, frequent pupdates, and what’s most reassuring: they are highly attentive to Felix himself, always noticing if he has a new lump or a weight change (realities of the geriatric doggie phase). So grateful for the care and attention Justin and his family give Felix. They tell me he’s “like part of the family”; could a dog-mom working long hours dream of anything more for her beloved old pup?! Thank you thank you to Justin and his family for the excellent care they give Felix. 10/5 stars! :)”

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.

“My Dandi had such a great stay! Astrid is loving and attentive, her house is dog-friendly, and the back yard is a perfect place to romp. We will be back!”

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.

We are ready to love your furry pal💜 I am a full-time Mom so am available most of the day. We can adjust our day to working with your pet’s 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!

About: Iv had dogs my entire life. From labs to bullterriers, pitbulls, britneys,GPS puppies, mixes. I will take care of yours as I would my own. Walks, parks if yours likes parks, cuddles, anything they need. I work from home so I have lots of flexibility to care for your pups! I’m available for boarding on weekends and most weekdays after 2pm. I’m happy to accommodate early mornings or extended stays with advance notice, and I’m quick to respond to messages. Your dog’s safety is always my top priority. Dogs are always leashed outside and stay within my sight at all times. I closely follow your care instructions, keep a calm and attentive environment, and make sure pets get plenty of love, supervision, and safe play. I treat every dog like they’re my own.

About: I know pets are part of the family and I want pet owners to be able to travel with peace of mind knowing their dog is well cared for. I’m able to provide an enriching and comfortable stay for your dog while you’re away. I currently work from home with a flexible schedule so I am able to provide adequate exercise, walks, enrichment and scheduled bathroom breaks. I provide a calm, safe, and structured environment for dogs to feel comfortable while you’re away. I work from home, so your dog won’t be left alone for long periods. I have a fenced yard for safe outdoor time and enjoy getting dogs out for walks and fresh air. I try to keep routines consistent—feeding, potty breaks, and activity—so your dog feels as close to home as possible.

About: I’m 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 things—whether 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 I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, and individual needs. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and cared for while you’re 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. I’m home most of the time, so your pet won’t 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, I’m able to provide consistent, loving care. Your pet’s 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. I’m attentive to their behavior, routines, and individual needs, and I’m careful to maintain a safe environment both inside and outside the home. My goal is simple: when you’re away, you can feel confident knowing your pet is safe, cared for, and receiving plenty of love and attention.

“Thanks for being available on such short notice and for all the attention you give Dandi. And now I know she likes doggie puzzles - I’ll get some! And thank you We will be back!”
