“Kalista was wonderful! She took such great care of my girls and I’m so grateful. They were so happy and that’s all that matters to me. Thank you so much for your assistance. I recommend!”
2. Samantha L.
“Samantha is amazing! She is such a nice person and showed a lot of care in coming out to meet my furries. She gave me a peace of mind when having to leave them. She gave me so many fun pictures and a video! I would recommend to anyone and everyone! I hope to use her again!”
3. rashell w.
“Rashell was really great with my sometimes difficult pup, she also was super helpful being able to make my appointment with short notice... I'd recommend her for your dog!”
4. Emma P.
“Emma did drop in visits with my very timid rabbit and was awesome with her. She was very reliable, thoughtful and patient, ensuring my rabbit was healthy and well cared for, reporting on each visit and sending photos. I will definitely request Emma again and highly recommend her.”
5. Angelique M.
“Angelique once again did a wonderful job with my 2 cats. She was always prompt and besides taking care of the feeding, watering and cleaning litter boxes, found time to play with them for a bit each day. They both warmed up to her (they are very skittish) and would come out for pets from her. This is probably the 5th or 6th time she has watched my kitties as a drop-in visit. I will definitely use her again and also recommend her.”
6. Jordan M.
“I really hope we can do this again together. My girls were so happy and well cared for. I really liked the updates and jr was lovely seeing how relaxed my girls were even though I’d been gone for five days. Jordan took notes when we left and it helped to ease my mind. She was just wonderful.”
7. Madeline J.
“Madeline was super attentive, thoughtful and great at troubleshooting issues for all my critters. Felt very good knowing my animals had excellent care and were in very good hands, especially with extra needs at very cold temperatures. Highly recommend!”
8. Mallory C.
“Mallory is awesome!! She is super friendly, trustworthy & always responded very quickly. She provided lots of pictures and updates and I can tell my pup was very happy and well taken care of. Knowing your pet is in good hands while you’re away really means the world & we will definitely be rebooking (:”
9. Rhonda R.
“Thank you Rhonda you’re a sweetie and always come through for our Levi. He loves you so much. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you and your family.”
10. Ashley K.
“Ashley was great with our girls. Excellent communication and very reliable.”
11. Bri C.
“Bri is amazing with dogs! She would take my dogs for hikes, runs, and walks. The dogs loved her and she was very trust worthy with my two large breed dogs. I was able to trust her with going in my house for home visits.”
12. Kristy H.
“Kristy is kind and attentive. She cares deeply for animals and their safety. She is friendly and animals love her. On time and trustworthy, our dogs love and miss her.”
13. Mary P.
“Mary has watched my cat and my five ducks on two occasions now, and both times I came home to happy and healthy animals! I appreciated her openness to work with me to care for my unconventional pets & do some light farm work, she was very communicative (sending me photos and videos of my ducks the first time I was away from them to help me feel less anxious) and checked in with me about duck care when temps got low one week this winter. The animals were all thriving upon my return and that's the only recommendation I need. I'm really glad I connected with her and will hopefully continue to work with her for future pet care. Thanks Mary!”
14. Steph S.
“Steph is great and I would highly recommend her. She has a lot of experience with dogs and tests your dog like her own.”
15. 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!”
16. Abigail E.
About: I grew up having dogs and small animals in my childhood home. I adopted my Alaskan Husky, a retired race dog, Fia 3 years ago. I started dog/house sitting in high school and have lots of experience caring for many different breeds. I have spent lots of time with house dogs as well as sled dogs. I am currently a full time student at UAF. While I am away for classes during the morning I am back to let my own dog out for walks by early afternoon. I occasionally go back to campus late afternoon but I have lots of time to go back and forth. I only live about a 5 minute drive from UAF. I dont have a fenced yard so I prefer to leash all pets I watch. I crate my dog and prefer that pets are crate trained, but this isn’t 100% required if the pet doesn’t have a destructive history.
17. Emma R.
“Emma did a wonderful job with our girls. She was very accommodating with our crazy night schedule. We truly appreciate her and the love she showed Ava & Amiria. We will definitely be using her again.”
18. Meg W.
“Meg did a great job taking care of my very nervous doggie and she was super patient! Meg sent a lot of photos and gave detailed info about each visit. I would definitely rebook with Meg in the future.”
19. Mariah G.
“Mariah is so sweet with our dogs. Appreciate her help making sure they get fed and get some play time. She took some fun pictures of them, too.”
20. Elysha A.
“Elysha is great with animals. She was very good with my Staffy puppy who has high energy. Elysha is a kind, caring, and very patient. She comes highly recommended.”
