“Rian did great! I always feel much better knowing she’s watching Phoebe while I’m traveling, and getting Phoebe pictures is the best part of my day!”
“Joanne responded to a very last minute request and helped make sure our pup was well taken care of while we were out for the day. We really appreciate the good communication, fast response, & knowing our fury gal was in good hands!”
“We had Kalista visit our pups 3x per day for 7 days. She was on time each time (Rover sends check in and check out times), sent plenty of cute pictures, and was very communicative. We highly recommend Kalista!”
“Mallory was wonderful with our boys! Very reliable and extremely responsive! It was so nice to have someone with them who so obviously loves them!”
“Katelyn was AMAZING with my dog when I needed a couple last minute drop in visits. My dog loved her and she was great at updating me.”
About: Growing up, we always had multiple pets in our home. I think that really shaped me to become the animal lover I am today. I have experience training dogs, mostly obedience, but some tricks as well. I think friends and family would say that I am reliable and caring pet sitter! I work, but I love taking time out of my day to care for pets! It breaks up the day so nicely in my opinion. At my home, there is a fenced yard and my goldendoodle loves playing with friends. At other people's homes, I am very attentive to make sure nothing happens to your furry friend.
“Couldn’t be happier with Ronja's services. She is kind and caring. I felt very comfortable leaving my three pets in her care. I will recommend her to all my friends!!”
“Zoe took amazing care of our two cats while we were out of town camping. The photos were adorable and they gave detailed reports of her visits. I can tell they have a great care for animals and they put a lot of effort into letting my cats adjust to a strange human - they even got my super shy baby to come out and hang out the whole time on the last day! Would definitely book again and recommend!”
“Casandra is prompt with communicating. She is a true dog/animal lover. Our two dogs imediatley took to her. She is confident, kind and caring. This is our first time leaving our dogs overnight, we were nervous. Casandras pictures and attention to details with notes reassured us we made a good choice with dog care. We will use her again! Thank You Casandra!”
“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.”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats since I was 4. I moved up to Alaska and have missed them so much and my place doesn't allow animals sadly. I’d love to come over and take care of your pets and take them for walks. I can’t wait to meet your furry loved ones and get connected with the Fairbanks community! I work a 48 hours on 96 hours off schedule as a firefighter. On my days off I have full flexibility and availability as well as my own reliable car to get around. I’m extremely active so high energy animals aren’t a problem. Although I can’t host animals at my place I promise to be respectful of your home. I know our area well so I’m open to walking animals around anywhere! As long as I get detailed instruction for your home and pets I’ll abide by any special rules or instructions.
“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.”
About: With over 7 years experience, rehabilitating, rehoming, medicating, sitting, grooming and providing enrichment, I’d be honored to sit your animals and show them unconditional care and love along the way! I currently work hand in paw, providing the best care to animals of all kinds. I’ve always loved working with animals which is why I’ve devoted my job and at home life to making a difference for each and every one. I have 2 dogs of my own (chihuahua and Lab) at home who don’t mind the company of new comers. Cleanliness and a safe environment is guaranteed for the best care of your animals.
“Ashley was great with our girls. Excellent communication and very reliable.”
“Great initial visit. Sigrid is professional yet warm with our furry friends.”
About: Hello - I am Annie and I am 25 years old from Rhode Island. I have dogsat for families throughout college in colorado area. I have a 5year old Old English Sheepdog who is about 75lbs back home and a 60 lb goldendoodle puppy now. He needs about 1-2 hours of exercise a day so I understand long walks / playing in parks, etc. I am usually gone 6a - 5p at work so I try to avoid caring for dogs during the week with my dog at home. I would prefer to do more dog walking services or daycare on weekends so our pups can play, have a fenced in backyard so they can run around together.
About: I have personally had all types of animals growing up. I’ve had cats, dogs, and lizards! I’ve pet sat for previous neighbors in the past as well as their children. Overall I love taking care of animals! I am currently in search for a job so as of now I have a schedule wide open for an animal! My fiancé is currently in common core so it allows me time to watch, walk, and play with the animal! I have a fenced in backyard as well as an open house with lots of carpet for those dogs that are scared of wood or tile flooring! Also lots of paths around for walks!
“Angelique was very timely in the scheduled visits. She provided wonderful care of the cats. Our cats are normally very shy of new people but warmed up to her immediately. I highly recommend Angelique for pet sitting.”
“Krista was amazing with my boy Zeus!! She played with him and made him feel loved. She also helped us give him his meds when she was there!! Will definitely be booking with her again”
About: I adore dogs so much. I have helped raise 4 dogs from puppyhood and I haves cared for senior dogs as well. I have tackled potty training, basic commands, and a few neat tricks. Your dog will be treated like absolute royalty with me, my favorite thing is pampering my own beautiful pups. I have never met a dog I don’t like and I’ve always lived with dogs so I’m exceptionally comfortable around them. I currently work mostly from home and I’m a part time dance teacher in the fall and spring. I can make myself available almost any day besides Sunday. I have two dogs, one 10 months old and the other is 4. They get to go on walks, drives, adventures to the dog park, and more. I treat dogs like kids honestly. We gotta burn energy and then make them feel comfy and loved.

Fairbanks pet parents share their Rover experiences
Zoe is kind and personable & our dog loved her company. She’s reliable and I didn’t have to worry about our dog.
Rhonda was wonderful, sweet and very personable. She looked in on our cat for 3 days and Graycie was very calm when we returned.
Kelsey went above and beyond taking care of my cat! In addition to food and water, she spent time holding and cuddling Mochi. I appreciate her work so much.
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.
