“Madelyn took fantastic care of our pup! He has a lot of energy but somehow came home nice and tired. Appreciated her laid back easy going nature! Would definitely recommend!”


“Rebecca took amazing care of Dottie - dog parks and play time galore! Her son was a sweetie and gave Dottie so much love. They bonded over the weekend and had a great time together. We got lots of cute pictures and felt very comfortable that our pup was in good hands the whole time we were gone.”


“I’m so happy that we found Lisa and Joe to mind our two pups while we were in Anchorage. They took great care of Ruby and Chance, made them comfortable in their home, and provided updates. Lisa is very responsive and easy to work with. I highly recommend them!”


“Mandy was awesome with our English lab! Before our trip she let us have a meet n greet to make sure our animals were all friendly. Definitely went above and beyond with everything. Hope Mandy will want to watch Lucy again in the future! 👍👍”


“Emily was hands down the best sitter I’ve had on Rover. She was extremely communicative, went above and beyond to accommodate both me and my pup, and provided consistent updates throughout the stay. She even offered complimentary pick-up and drop-off, which was a huge help. I truly appreciated the care she showed and her ability to handle Oliver with confidence and kindness. Highly recommend.”


“Lindsey was great. She gave Bailey lots of attention and took her out to play multiple times a day. She also took care to follow all of the extra instructions we left, so we knew she was in great hands. Her dog Penny was a great playmate for Bailey as she loves interacting with other pups, so so would recommend Lindsey if you dog loves company. Lindsey also provided us regular updates and photos, so we felt confident that Bailey was in good hands and having lots of fun while we were gone.”

About: When I was around 12, I started taking care of my neighbor’s chocolate lab whenever they went camping. Ever since, I’ve known that caring for animals was a passion of mine. When I was old enough, I worked at an animal daycare for a year. Right now, I work 8:30–5:00 for a travel design company, but I can do walks during my lunch break, as well as check-ins, boarding requests, and feeding appointments. These days, I mostly help take care of my family and friends’ pets, and I’d be so happy to help care for yours too! I am a part time retail manager during the week and am a barista in the mornings on weekdays which i get off at 1 pm, so I have lots of time in afternoon. I think the biggest thing is this communication between the pet owner and the sitter. Any and all expectations will be met and I strive to go above and beyond.

“Christina and her family were wonderful. Jessa seemed to have had a great time with them, as evidenced by the fact that she slept for hours after I picked her up. Good communication. I would def have them sit again if I come back through this area.”


“Sabrina and her family took good care of our boys while we were away. She was responsive and was able to handle any issues that our geriatric bulldog threw their way. I appreciate their patience with him during his stay.”


“Rita was such an amazing sitter for our fur babies! We have a new puppy and she was so patient with him. Our older dog with anxiety also did so well with Rita! We will definitely be rebooking with her!”


“We have used Britney a couple times now and I can’t tell you how happy we are with her. Sammy is always super happy to go to her home. Brittany and her whole family are super caring and loving. She sends me pictures and videos of Sammy while I am away. I definitely know she is take really good care of Sammy! We will definitely continue to use Brittany and I highly recommend her!!”


About: I've had companion dogs for most of my adult life. Usually two dogs at a time. My oldest dog was a Red Healer cattle dog who eventually became blind and deaf living to be almost 19yo. I've also had Australian Shepherds (2) and Boarder Collies (2) and enjoy the smart dog challenge. I consider my experience well rounded from training puppies to caring for older dogs who have special needs. I love them all like they are one of a kind and deserve the best this life has to offer. Thank you in advance for considering me as part of your pets care! I work during the day M-F close to the house. Usually home on the weekends. Daily walks are provided with additional play time and potty breaks as needed. I have a fenced yard and usually accompany the dog outside so they are not alone in the yard. Play time also occurs in the fenced yard space. Dogs are free to roam the house and be part of our family while boarding but I also offer containment to an area of the house or crate if needed.

“Haley gave my dog, Hero great care. I loved the pictures she sent and reassuring txt message. Hero even came home smelling better. (Thank you for pampering him with a bath!). I would recommend Haley to others.”


“Stacy and Taz provided just what we hoped and expected for our Roo. They made Roo feel at home and kept him active, warm, and like part of their pack. Stacy sent updates and photos of their escapades, which provided us more assurance knowing he was in good hands and having a good time. I highly recommend Stacy for your boarding needs if you want your dog to stay active, be safe, and feel loved. I also appreciate her thoughtfulness to gift Roo his own stocking for Christmas, as were gone at that time. Mahalo nui loa, Stacy and Taz! Thank you very much for taking great care of Roo. :)”

“Katie watched my pup Dahlia while I was away for 2 weeks. Since I’m from out of town, we hadn’t met in-person before drop-off, but I felt like Dahlia was in good hands. Katie was great at communicating both before and during Dahlia’s stay. Katie sent pictures and videos of Dahlia during the two weeks and I could tell that Dahlia was comfortable and cozy throughout her stay. Would book with Katie again if I ever need a dog-sitter in Anchorage!”


“Gloria and Max took great care of Scout. I love it that they send so many pictures of the various outings that they take Scout on and of her relaxing at home. Definitely 5 star dog boarders and walkers!”
