House Sitting in College

“Ashley was super helpful and did a little meet and greet before watching our two lab mixes with overnight care for the holiday weekend! They were in great hands, even with our one very shy dog. She followed their instructions super closely! She also sent updates right away and was responsive to any questions we had about how things were going. Will absolutely be using again!”

Max C.

“Ronja did a great job watching my two high energy labs. They’re not the best on leash, but she still managed to wrangle them. She was great about sending updates while I was out of town, and you could tell she really cares about animals.”

Sarah C.

“She is fantastic! She took great care of my 5 kitties that get wet food twice a day (they are spoiled) she kept us update with great photos! The kitties were totally relaxed when we got home ! She is awesome! Hope to use her again”

“Having Sally housesit with our chocolate lab, River, makes leaving on a trip so much less stressful. We know Sally will take care of the house and keep River on the same routine he has when we are home - feeding, walks, hanging out on the couch together. River is happy and healthy when we get home!”

“Grace took care of the house and our girls. She was very responsible and gave us peace of mind knowing she was in our home. And our girls liked her! We would not hesitate to use her again and recommend her without reservation”

“Olivia was awesome with my 4 high energy dogs ans 2 cats. She was communicative, sent lots of pictures, and took great care of everything, including my plants and the house. I will definitely book with her again!!!”

Christen W.

“Katie was very communicative and did well with the dogs. I came home to the house in the same condition I left it in and two happy, healthy dogs. Katie sent me photos to let me know how the dogs were doing and even checked up on me to make sure my vacation was going well. I will definitely use her again in the future.”

Cindy P.

“Selina took excellent care of our two dogs while we were out of the country for nearly 2 weeks. All care instructions were followed, and the dogs appeared very happy and comfortable around her. Medical issues were handled extremely well too. Thanks again, Selina!”

About: My parents bred Golden Retrievers when I was a young child, and I have loved and had dogs since I was born. Barb, a 120lb Rottweiler/Mastiff, is our current companion after losing Richard, our 165lb St. Bernard. Now that my husband and I are empty-nesters, and now that I am retired (for the time being) I'm excited to take care of other dogs. I'm skilled at dog training and love dogs of all shapes, sizes, breeds and demeanors. Walking/hiking is one of my favorite past times. I'm excited for the opportunity to take care of your pooch! I am currently “retired” and have an extremely flexible schedule when I am not traveling. When I am in the Fairbanks area I should be able to help care for your dog most days/times. I have two fully fenced back yards. Barb (my dog) loves all dogs, and it is just Barb, my husband, and myself living in our home right now. I'm happy to accommodate the needs of your dog by keeping them at our house, going to your home, and/or taking them for a walk/hike/potty break. I also enjoy training puppies.

About: I have been working with dogs and cats in rescue and rehabilitation settings for over 16 years, across the gamut of shelter volunteering, high need fostering, and medical / rehabilitation support. I take caring for and walking dogs and cats extremely seriously, as all animals have different needs and boundaries that keeps everyone safe to be respected. 12 years ago I adopted one of my highest need medical foster dogs to help her thrive better outside the rescue system, I spent the last decade plus caring for her medically and giving her the happiest life she could have, but sadly brain cancer took her earlier this year. I am looking to get involved again with animals that may need help, from as big to in house support to as little as a walk so they can relieve themselves while their parents are at work. I currently work flexibly from home, so have the ability to help your pets during what are typical in-office hours for most! I also have some availability for in house overnight sitting I have over a decade of experience walking and caring for dogs and cats of all temperaments. I understand through my rescue work how to properly engage with anxious or high energy animals so as to ensure the best safety for all parties. I also listen and follow pet parent directions to the letter when provided detailed routines or steps. I have extensive experience with elderly and special needs dogs, and can administer oral and topical medications when instructed by the pet parent how the individual pet best receives them.

“I had last-minute need for sitter to keep my fur baby company for an evening while staying at a hotel. Reagan was responsive and flexible in accommodating last-minute schedule changes. More importantly, Rainbow felt immediately comfortable with her, which provided me with peace of mind that he was in good hands. Reagan sent photos and updates throughout the evening. She has my highest recommendation.”

About: Having worked at a pet resort, I have taken care of all sorts of pets! I am confident with all ages, sizes, and temperaments! If your fur baby needs exercise, extra playtime, naps, or medication, that is no problem for me! I have administered medication for both cats and dogs, including insulin. I also offer daily updates on your pet if that is something you’re interested in! I am a college student, but I am and will be available full time because my classes are online. I can do both check-ins and overnights! When I am there, I try to engage and play with your pets as much as they want. If they need to go potty often, or take medication, that is no problem for me. Your fur babies health and comfort is my top priority! And of course, I will send pictures and videos of them playing and cuddling. If you have multiple pets, my favorite pictures are of them all snuggled up together!

“Miranda was the and best! She took very good care of our two dogs and cat. She provided daily updates and pictures. The house was clean and tidy when we returned. We have already booked our next pet sitting with her.”

Marda M.

“Eva was a great dog sitter for us. She was so nice and was able to accommodate our dates sort of at the last minute. Our dog seemed to feel very comfortable with her and it was so nice that we didn’t have to board our dog at the kennel. I had left lots of instructions for Eva and she seemed to have followed all of them perfectly! I felt totally comfortable with her staying over night in our house. All around it was a great experience and we will definitely plan to use her services again in the future! We highly recommend!”

CHARLES M.

“Sigrid took great care of our neurotic Border collie Ben and medically needy cat for a week. The animals were both well and the house was well cared for when we returned. Ben was thrilled to see her when she dropped off keys the next day - a very good sign.”

I believe in reliable, affordable, and loving pet care and strive to make your pet feel comfortable and safe. Let my home be their second home! I will have plenty of time to love on, walk, and play with your pets! I am currently available most days. This includes most holidays too. I have a fenced in yard and two friendly dogs of my own to keep your fur baby company and happy! The dogs have their own room in the house that also includes kennels if your dog is trained, if not, that is ok, we have dog beds too! I also have all sorts of toys to play with and lots of yard space for your dog to run and play! Dogs and cats are also allowed in the house and on the furniture/couches.

“Jessica paid attention to details of Django’s care. She repeated them back to me which showed that she was eager to do things the way we asked and that she was experienced. I appreciated her communication, she sent messages and pictures and asked little questions that came up too. She was respectful of our space when we were away. She was kind and honest. I’ll happily book her again in the future if she’s available!”

MaryPat S.

“My pup had such a great time with Andrea! I was new to Rover and Andrea provided such a positive experience. She’s very prompt with communication and provided super cute pics of my girl throughout the week. Would absolutely recommend and use again!”

About: I combine compassionate, hands-on care with experience tailored to dogs at every life stage. I’m skilled in puppy training basics including crate training, potty routines, and positive-reinforcement commands, so young pups stay consistent and confident while you’re away. I’m also experienced with senior dog care, providing gentle support, medication reminders, slow-paced walks, and extra comfort for older pups who need a little more patience and attention. I focus on keeping each dog’s routine familiar, stress-free, and full of affection. Above all, I treat every dog like family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and understood from the moment I arrive. I currently work part-time, which gives me lots of free time to spend with your pup and plenty of flexibility to match their routine. Because my schedule is so open, I can provide consistent walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship throughout the day. I’m also available for house-sitting during the week, making it easy to maintain your dog’s normal schedule in the comfort of their home. My flexibility allows me to adapt to puppies who need frequent attention, seniors who prefer a calm pace, or any dog who simply loves extra company. Your pet’s needs come first, and I make sure my routine fits seamlessly around theirs. At home, I keep a calm, structured environment centered around safety, routine, and plenty of affection. I have two dogs of my own, a 7-year-old Yorkie–Schnauzer mix named Coco and a 3-year-old Staffordshire Pitbull named Raptor who are both friendly, well-behaved, and fully crate-trained. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routines closely aka feeding schedules, walk times, crate routines, and any house rules you prefer. I keep your pet’s environment stress-free, maintain clear communication, and make sure they get plenty of playtime, supervision, and comfort. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, understood, and completely at ease.

About: I’m a military member an active volunteer in the local animal rescue community. I’ve fostered multiple dogs and cats before they found their forever homes, giving me experience with a wide range of temperaments — from high-energy working breeds to shy or anxious rescues. I understand how important routine, structure, and consistency are for pets. Whether I’m providing house sitting, drop-ins, or walks, I maintain your pet’s normal schedule to keep them calm and comfortable. I’m comfortable administering simple medications, handling strong or active dogs, and caring for multi-pet households. My own two pets are family to me, and I treat every animal in my care with the same level of attention and respect. You can expect clear communication, prompt responses, and regular photo updates while you’re away. I maintain a structured and consistent daily routine, which allows me to provide dependable, attentive care. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and house sitting on weekends and weekdays after 4pm, with flexibility for early mornings when needed. Pets in my care receive regular exercise, feeding on schedule, and intentional engagement throughout the day. I prioritize maintaining your pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. Safety is my top priority — all introductions are done slowly and intentionally to ensure compatibility. I always follow your specific care instructions regarding feeding, exercise, and supervision. In your home, I maintain cleanliness, security, and clear communication throughout the stay. You can expect regular updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing.
