“Alejandra took excellent care of my dog Finn while I was on a 2 week long trip. Communication was excellent and I genuinely felt like she enjoyed spending time with Finn. Don’t hesitate to book Alejandra for whatever pet care needs you have - dog walking, house sitting, etc. She is very reliable and professional.”

About: I am very open and flexible schedule-wise, I don't mind getting up early if needed. I have experience with my own shitzu-poodle (Mocha), and my black cat (Gravy), as well as my neighbors various cats and dogs. I am a college student, so my only responsibility is to attend my classes. I have a lot of large gaps between/before classes where I can go let pets out for potty breaks, take them on a walk, give them food, etc,. I am very flexible. I have time to do multiple visits a day. I'm able to visit before classes, in between classes, and after. Any excuse to get out of my dorm is a good one 😅 I am more than willing to prepare food for pets, administer medications, or just spend some time with the pets if desired. Overall, I want to maintain a respectful and trusting relationship with clients.
“Brittany did a great job walking our two dogs. She was very reliable, professional and communicated with us whenever needed. The dogs had a great time on their nice long walks with her and “got lots of sniffs in”. I will definitely ask her to help out again.”
About: I am experienced with senior pets and medication administration, including insulin. I provide patient, attentive care with a strong focus on safety, comfort, and trust. As a functional, holistic practitioner, I deeply understand the impact that movement, purpose, and genuine joy have on overall well-being. After the passing of my sweet boy, I knew it was essential for me to continue pursuing those elements in my own life, and what could be more healing than spending part of my days with dogs? From as far back as I can remember, animals have been a light in my life. What I love most about them is their innocence, there are few things in this world that carry the same purity they do. Time spent with animals feels light and genuinely medicinal. That connection became especially profound for me in 2021, when I rescued my “soul” dog, a mangled senior left to roam the streets. Loving him taught me more about life, presence, and what truly matters than any other experience ever could. Though sadly he passed in 2025, the time we shared, while short, felt like an entire lifetime. As a functional, holistic practitioner, I deeply understand the impact that movement, purpose, and genuine joy have on overall well-being. After the passing of my sweet boy, I knew it was essential for me to continue pursuing those elements in my own life, and what better way than spending part of my days with dogs? I approach every walk and visit with safety, patience, and presence as my top priorities. I move at your dog’s pace, build trust gently, and stay fully attentive to their needs. My goal is calm, reliable care that helps your dog feel secure, loved, and supported every step of the way.
About: Since childhood my family has always had a dog. I am very used to running, walking, snuggling and playing! Let's meet and see our compatibility! **I work full time, Monday- Friday from 7:30am-4:30pm** So please take this into consideration before booking with me for any service. I am always free FULL DAYS on weekends and the evenings of the work week. If the home is not far from my job (midtown Anchorage) during my lunch hour I could go to check on the dog/let them outside as I have a 1 hour lunch break at 1:00pm during the work week. I do not have a fenced yard and live in a pet free property, so all my pet sitting will need to be done at the pet's home and/or parks. I am available for over night stays, general dog walking on weekends/play time, or to do drop in visits.
“Eric did a wonderful job walking our pups! He was on time, we got pics of them out on their walk and had 2 happy pup faces when they got home! Thank you Eric!”
About: I really care about animals and making sure their needs are being met. Also, enjoy spending time and meeting new animals and take the time to learn about them. I am a full time college looking to gain extra money on the side while also spending time with other new animals around the town. I have three dogs at home and a cat and enjoy spending time with them and playing with them. I feed my own animals regularly and make sure they are in a safe environment.
About: As a longtime dog owner with three dogs of my own, I have hands-on experience caring for different personalities, energy levels, and daily routines. I also care for a diabetic senior dog, so I understand how important consistency, patience, close observation, and dependable care are—especially for older pets or those with additional needs. Since retiring from the Air Force, I have a flexible, open schedule that allows me to make pet care a regular part of my day. I’m available throughout the morning, afternoon, and evening for walks and drop-in visits, including many weekends. Because I’m not trying to squeeze visits around a full-time job, I can give your pet my full attention, arrive reliably, and maintain a consistent routine. I also have flexibility for recurring visits and reasonable last-minute requests. For walks and drop-in visits, I will carefully follow your pet’s normal routine and all instructions you provide. I’ll confirm that doors, gates, collars, harnesses, and leashes are secure, and I will never allow a dog off-leash unless we are in a safely enclosed area and you have specifically approved it. During drop-ins, I can provide fresh food and water, bathroom breaks, playtime, companionship, and approved medications according to your instructions.
About: I have puppy sat for a couple years now. I love all animals and I’m very physically fit to take care of them. I can’t have a puppy of my own right now so I love taking care and spending time with them when I can. I’m available 24/7 right now. Animals can’t stay at my place, but I am free to stay with them overnight or whatever is needed. I can stay weekends as well. I can stay with the Dog/pup 24/7. I can stay overnight, take them on walks, any kind of care that is needed I can take care of.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Walking in Eagle River on Rover is $22.2 per walk (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Dog Walking 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 Dog Walking. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of August 2026, there are 496 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Eagle River. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Eagle River. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Eagle River.
Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s 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.
Every walker 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 Justice’s 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Eagle River. On Rover:
- 97% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 97% can help with daily exercise
You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
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.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
