House Sitting in Girdwood

“Amy did a phenomenal job with my doggos - I received regular updates and they definitely enjoyed their time with her. She was both understanding and accommodating when details changed last minute. Highly recommended.”

“Deanna did a fantastic job taking care of our girls while we were.on our honeymoon. It was the first time we left our dogs with someone other than close family, and the longest we have been away from them at the same time. She was very patient with us and super responsive, which will make it that much easier for us to leave next time. She also left the house in great condition--something that goes a long way with me.”

“Loyd communicated with us throughout his stay at our home with our 2 dogs. Luna is reactive and Loyd handled her very well and took care of our home too. The house was in great condition when we returned and the dogs looked happy.”

“Sarah was beyond amazing. She sent daily pics and updates, is a joy to be around, and knows a ton about dog behavior and more. I can’t recommend her more! I found a dog/house sitter and friend!”

“Aizada did a fantastic job watching Kobuk while I was away! She was very informative on his status throughout every day that I was away. She also sent pictures often, which is always appreciated. I will certainly use Aizada again!”

“Kate was incredible with our 3 dogs! Not only did she give a quick yes to a short notice request, she provided excellent care to our dogs and an our home! Thanks Kate!”

“Anni was a great dog/house sitter. She communicated with me regularly about the dogs, sent photo updates and made sure our place was taken care of. I’d definitely recommend Anni & hope to use her again on our next trip.”

“I can’t give Erica enough stars, she is absolutely amazing. During my recent trip, Erica stayed at my place and took care of my pet for ~ 2 weeks. She was quick to gain the trust of my anti-social cat, she communicated with me nearly daily, and my cat was happy and well cared for while I was gone. Erica also was an excellent house guest and left the place in great/tidy condition (probably better than I had left it). Thanks again Erica for taking such great care of Toed!”

“Sarah did an excellent job with her overnight stay with my dogs. I have special needs dogs and she was great with the communication and making sure they were kept safe and healthy! I am normally anxious leaving them with people who don’t know them but I had zero worries with her. Highly recommended!”

“Ashlyn has taken care of many dogs her whole life. She loves them and cares for them with all her heart. She takes them on walks, makes sure they are fed, and gives them lots of love. 10/10 recommend”

“This is the second time we have had Sorona watch our baby. She is fantastic. We get lots of pictures while we are away. Diamond is right at home with her. We had a freezer fail while we were away and Sorona contacted us promptly so we could contact a relative to salvage what we could. We have already booked for later this summer. Highly recommend Sorona.”

“Jennifer did an excellent job taking care of my senior dog and rabbits! She also kept me updated with cute photos. Would definitely recommend! Thanks Jen!”

“She communicated very well everyday that she took care of my pup. I am very thankful for her and would highly recommend! I would trust my pups with her anyday.”

“Faith is a rockstar! Not only was she able to accommodate a last minute meet and greet/booking, but faced some unexpected weather & power outages with ease. We were able to enjoy our night out of town knowing our fur family was well taken care of and in safe hands.”

“Scott did a great job of keeping us informed about our dog while we were away. He played with her, spent a good amount of time with her, and sent videos of how she was doing. Thank you!”

“Max will go above and beyond your expectations of a dog walker. He is punctual, reliable, responsible and trustworthy. He cares about your dog's comfort and welfare and will treat your dog like it's one of his own. Your dog is going to love him!”

“We’ve had the good fortune to have Eric watch our dog while we go on vacation for the past few years, first year with Rover. He is far and above our first choice in dog care, and is worth every penny. Eric is fantastic and goes above and beyond to make sure our Jack is calm and happy while we are away. We always come home to a happy content pet and a super clean home. He has great communication and lets us know how Jack is doing. And, he’s just a really nice person who cares. Thanks again, Eric, for letting us all have a great vacation!”

“Cody is friendly, responsible, and has great communication. When it comes to taking care of my senior dog, I trust him completely. I definitely recommend Cody as a sitter, and am sure my dog and cat would recommend him too.”

About: Hi, I'm Katie! I've cared for dogs my entire life-- my family adopted and gave a safe home numerous dogs throughout my childhood. I helped care for them in every way: feeding, walking, bathroom breaks, cleaning up, administering medicine, playing and socializing. I don't have any pets of my own right now, so I miss being around dogs. I look forward to meeting yours! I work 2 days a week, but otherwise I am free to house sit or board smaller dogs in my home. I live in Girdwood so I am more able to commit to longer house sits in Girdwood than in Anchorage. I have no pets of my own, so there are no chances for conflict between animals. I have a small place in Girdwood, so I can board small/medium breeds of dogs only.

“Sarah is an incredible as a pet caregiver. She is sensitive to respecting dog’s boundaries and understanding the level of interaction they may want or not want from a caregiver. She is patient in earning the trust of animals and devoting in the love and care she gives. You can trust any pet in her care will be safe and loved and she will go above and beyond to meet their specific needs.”
