Pet Sitting & Drop Ins In Fairview

About: My name is Jacob and I have 15 years of experience caring for mine and my family's pets. I also have approximately 4 years of volunteer experience at shelters caring for cats and dogs. I have experience walking and caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds and energy levels. From tiny pups to large, strong dogs, I'm confident handling them safely and calmly. I've worked with dogs that have behavioral challenges such as leash reactivity, anxiety, fearfulness and high energy. I'm patient, attentive, and always focused on understanding each dog's unique needs. I'm autistic, and I've found that this often allows me to connect especially well with animals. I'm very attentive to body language, routines, and subtle behavior changes, which helps me respond calmly and consistently- particularly with dogs who need a little extra understanding. My goal is to make every walk a positive, stress-free experience. My schedule is pretty flexible to do drop-in care for your pets or walks as needed. I am willing to work with clients so they can get the care they need for their pets. I am willing to do drop-in care at client's homes as needed. I can also take dogs for walks from client's homes as requested by client.

“Whitney was very attentive and asked great questions on our meet and greet. That was super helpful to me as I was a first time Rover user. She's great at receiving feedback and adjusting visit-by-visit! The dogs loved her so I'll be rebooking for the next few weeks! Highly recommend Whitney as your dog sitter, she's made the whole process super easy and worry-free.”

“My cat unfortunately he’s not always very friendly to other humans. She has diabetes and requires insulin shots every morning. Sinead has been so patient and willing to get to know Tiger. She has definitely gone the extra mile to make the visits successful!!”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my experience caring for dogs who may be reactive or selective around other animals. I understand how important it is to find someone you can truly trust when your dog requires extra awareness and responsibility. I’m attentive, proactive, and committed to keeping every dog in my care safe by avoiding risky situations and managing walks and interactions thoughtfully. I also grew up in a dog-loving household with four or more dogs at any given time. Our home was the go-to place for family and friends to leave their dogs while traveling or working, and at times we even cared for entire litters of puppies. Because of this, I have hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and temperaments, and I’m comfortable providing dependable, attentive care tailored to each dog’s individual needs. I currently work from home on freelance engineering design projects, and my own home improvement projects. This means I have a heaps of availability to pay attention to your pet! I am an active individual that recently moved to Anchorage, I love walking with dogs to explore neighborhoods and get exercise. I also have a yard at my home, which is unfenced, and I look forward to romping around with leashed dogs. Regarding situations where dogs stay at my house, I currently have two young cats which any visiting dogs will have to be okay with. Because my house has two levels, I do have the ability to block the stairway and provide my cats with a sanctuary if the cats get tired of dog games.

“Shelley was great with my cats! I liked getting daily updates and pictures and it was nice knowing they were well cared-for while I was out of town. She will always be my first choice for pet sitting when I travel!”

“Brianne was wonderful with drop-in visits for our three pups over a long weekend! She sent us pictures and hung out with them for the full time every single visit, and everyone looked calm and happy throughout. Communication was great, including arranging some schedule changes and medications to manage one of our dog's weather anxiety (but she was already on top of it anyway!). Really appreciate and recommend her!”

“Thank you Katy. I love how you got to know my animals. I would trust you to take care of my animals anytime. I did not worry because I knew my cats were well taken care of.”

About: I’m dependable, patient, and comfortable with dogs of all energy levels. I enjoy getting outside for walks and playtime, so active dogs will get plenty of exercise and attention. I’m also very attentive to routines and details. Whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, puppy potty breaks, or extra care for senior dogs, I make sure your instructions are followed carefully. My goal is simple: your dog feels safe, cared for, and relaxed while you’re away. I’m currently full-time, but being salaried I have some flexibility. I’m happy to stop by during lunch times as well as before and after work. I care for pets by keeping their routine consistent and making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I follow feeding schedules, provide regular walks and potty breaks, and give them plenty of attention and companionship. If I’m in a client’s home, I respect their space while keeping pets relaxed in their familiar environment. Every dog is different, so I adjust care based on their personality, energy level, and any special instructions from the owner.

About: I’ve grown up with many dogs, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I understand their behavior, needs, and how to keep them comfortable, safe, and happy in different situations. In addition to dogs, I’ve also previously cat-sat for friends and neighbors, which has helped me become flexible and attentive to different types of pets and personalities. This experience has taught me responsibility, patience, and how to build trust with both animals and their owners. Overall, I’m reliable, experienced, and truly passionate about making sure every pet feels cared for and at ease. I’m currently a high school student and a soccer player, but I only have three classes this year, which gives me a lot of free time during the day. I’m available before school, after school, and outside of practice to spend quality time with your pets. Because of my schedule, I’m very flexible and able to accommodate a variety of needs, whether that’s regular check-ins, walks, or extended care. I’m committed to making sure your animals get plenty of attention, exercise, and care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine closely to keep pets comfortable and stress free. I make sure they’re fed, exercised, and given plenty of attention and care. I also keep the home clean and provide updates so owners feel confident their pets are in good hands.

“She was great! Really good communication, and followed the special diet instructions for my geriatric kitties. I appreciated the daily updates and photos.”

“Alex took perfect care of my Sedgey and I could tell she genuinely loved it! I will definitely book with her again in the future. Thank you Alex!”

Angela P.

“Alex did a wonderful job dropping in to take care of my cat, Delilah, while I was out of the country. Alex left detailed drop-in notes with photos and took great care in following the instructions for feeding that I left. Alex spent time with Delilah during each visit for some much-needed cat playtime. I had complete confidence that Delilah was being well cared for while I was away for the week. Thank you, Alex!”
