1. Alena M.
“Alena was great! When I got home Jesse Belle was happy to see me - but not as enthusiastic as she usually is so I know she was well taken care of. Alena sent daily reports with picture showing me all the fun they were having. Plus I had to extend my stay one additional night at the last minute and Alena graciously accommodated the extra day”

6. Miranda L.
“Miranda is INCREDIBLE. I almost want to leave a bad review so I can keep her to myself and no one will know how amazing she is. The communication was great - pictures with an update every morning and evening about not only our pets but the general state of the home. We will absolutely use her again and can’t recommend her enough!”
7. Grace C.

10. rashell w.
“Rashell was a real jem! Our 2 digs love her and were well taken care of during the week we were away. Miley is usually very picky and doesn't eat when we aren't home. She did not loose an ounce while we were gone. I want to thank Rashell again and we highly recommend her for anyone's need for pet care. Will definitely have her back!”

15. Joy C.
About: I have owned and/or fostered between 1 and 6 doggos since 2005 with farm animal experience growing up. I’ve raised chickens, cows, ducks and geese, so working with unusual pets would make me incredibly happy. Im available for drop ins, overnight care, house-sitting, and possibly boarding depending on the dog and time line. I have Holiday availability for house sitting, drop ins, overnights, and walks. Very dependable with availability on calendar kept up to date. My schedule changes occasionally but the calendar for availability is up to date. If you’re in a pinch or need a day that shows as busy, let me know and I may be able to accommodate you. I believe in consent for people, animals, children, and I let my dogs tell me what they’re up for. For instance, I’ve clipped their nails since they were babies and they come running when they see the nippers come out because that signals treats. But I’ll let them choose that interaction and if they need a break or want to call it a day after one paw, they get to jump out of my lap and walk it off at any time. Your pets will be treated with respect and never forced into a a situation they don’t opt into. I’d love to become their friend and second favorite person :)

17. Alisha P.
“I recommend Alisha fully, I believe she is really great with her pets at home. She's 100 percent animal lover, and she would be more than happy to spend time with any fur babies during the day.”
18. Kaliyah R.
About: I have been a pet sitter since i was 15 years old, starting from sitting for my neighbors dogs to the greater community around me, even taking care of reptiles on occasion. I’m 21 now and spending time with animals is still one of my biggest passions. I’m currently enrolled at UAF in the wildlife biology program working towards getting my foot in the door in wildlife rehab/conservation, so any experience with hands on care is super helpful. I am currently in school so this is my main gig, i have a lot of free time recently and my schedule is flexible, i can accommodate! I am very attentive when it comes to pets, i have my own and they will ALWAYS come first before myself, i know what it’s like to love a fur baby.
19. Rhonda R.

20. Margot B.
“Margot watched our Jack Russell Terrier puppy for an overnight in Fairbanks, Alaska - she kept our "Katy" safe yet allowed her to explore her new surroundings. Margot communicated well & took an amazing picture of Katy with her paw on a tennis ball while she played. I would trust Margot with any of my furry friends - highly recommend!”
