“My two huskies were very happy spending a week with Kiara and her family. They were spoiled with tons of attention and all the couch cuddles they could hope for. Kiara was very communicative, understanding of each dog's preferences, and willing to accommodate needs for my senior dog as well. I would be happy to leave my dogs there again!”
“They were amazing with Loki. He did great with their family and their other pets. They loved him just as much as we love him if I ever needed another dog sitter I’ll definitely go back to them and I will definitely recommend them to anybody else that needs one.”
“Zissou came home happy and healthy! She sent lots of photos; which we appreciated. She even took him on a walk! We will definitely use her again in the future.”
“She picked up Rachel from the airport and let her stay the night, while sending puppy updates. Since Rachel was flying from Fairbanks to Juneau. She was very great to work with, the communication between her getting her and dropping her off was amazing.”
“Lindsey was great! My dog felt right at home with her two pups and was well taken care of. Looking forward to having Lindsey watch her in the future when I need a dog sitter.”
“Amazing. Our dog was so happy and loved Karissa’s pup! Klarissa was super communicative and sent multiple cute photos each day. Would definitely recommend!”
“Zhenya boarded my 6 month old Bernedoodle for a few days. I got regular updates and he got a lot of good exposure! My pup has only good things to say and really enjoyed his stay.”
“Kassandra was amazing. After our meet and greet I felt 100% comfortable leaving my dog with her and knew he would be in good hands. She was very flexible with our schedule and quickly responded to correspondence. I highly recommended.”
“Our pups had a terrific time with Mia over the weekend. She made sure they had plenty of playtime, walks and downtime. Great communication, lots of pics. I would happily rebook with Mia!”
“We were very pleased with the care Astrid provided for our dog, Charlie, during the week he was there. Frequent photos, daily outings with him, and confirmation that he got his medicine. Before his stay, we had two meet'n greets. Astrid seems very friendly and calm, while at the same time she demonstrated confidence in her interaction with the dogs (Charlie and others). Would definitely recommend her!”
“Our dog seemed to enjoy her stay. Great yard for play, and neighborhood for walks. Kaitlin gave great updates during the stay and was flexible with us for drop off and pick up.”
“Ralph did such an amazing job with my little chihuahua Dodge! He cuddled up with him everyday and Dodge bonded with Ralph so well!!! He seemed so relaxed and not stressed with the change in routine! I really appreciated the daily picture updates with how he’s doing. I would absolutely use Ralph again!”
“Absolutely fantastic... constant communication... Bailey was obviously happy and completely comfortable... and sadly... probably didn't miss us because of how wonderful Jaymie was... HIGHLY RECOMMEND HER”
“Amy and her husband did a great job watching our dogs for two weeks! While we were gone, they stayed in contact with us and sent pictures and videos. Our dogs seemed very happy and comfortable at their home. I HIGHLY recommend her, and will be using her again.”
“Jessica’s home was warm and inviting and extremely dog friendly. My 8 month old doesn’t have manners yet and is a bit rambunctious but Jessica was so patient with her. Sent me pics and videos of her days. If my dog Tilly could speak the day after I picked her up I just know she would have said I want to go over to my friends house! Thank you so much for loving her during my absence. You are my person I will always call you first! Thank you again!”
“Prospect was in great company and thoroughly enjoyed his time with Aiko and her family :) Great communicators, flexible with my changing pickup & dropoff times, and my boy was returned to me safe & happy. Would recommend to anyone!”
About: I am a substitute teacher (gone 7:15am-2:45pm Monday-Friday) living on Hillside with my military hubby and two puppers, Oscar and Juniper. Oscar is a 11yr old, 55lb mutt (lab/border collie) and is a thriving, darling gentleman. Juniper is 2yrs old, a Goose Bay special rescue/mutt (55ish lbs as well but taller and lankier than Oscar). They are very well behaved and love company. Our big fenced in backyard allows for oodles of fresh air and freedom to run! They run off leash during hikes and walks, and we would prefer our guest puppers to be able to do so as well. We provide a structured, loving, healthy environment. Your pup, is our pup-part of the family, held to the same basic standards and spoiled with attention, belly and ear scratches, and couch cuddles. Breakfast and potty is usually 6:30/7am, and another potty run 7:30am by Paul (my hubby) before he goes to work. I am usually home at 2:45pm and let them out in the backyard. During the winter, I then head off for a 5km walk on the trails so we can wrap up by dark. If temperatures, weather, or errands alter that, we have reflective/glow collars and walk around our quiet neighbourhood. Supper is 5pm. Pups go in/out as needed (we have a bell on the door they jingle). We typically go to bed 10-11pm, and do a tactical potty run at that time. Walking: Walks are typically 5+km, on trails, off leash preferred since my dogs roam free. I drive a wilderness Subaru Outback so lots of trunk space for 3 med/large dogs or I can drop the seat backs as needed if I need to swing by for your pooch. I do not tolerate unsafe/bad/aggressive behaviour. I follow your directions as I trust you to know what your pet needs and take that seriously. For stays at my place, I have a large house with covered couches, 4 massive dog beds, fenced in backyard, large communal water bowl, two easygoing, friendly puppers, toys galore.
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Knik-Fairview
I am a 1st time user of this app and also trusting a virtual stranger with my baby boy who would be in an environment completely different than anything he has ever known in his little doggie life. And he has never Not slept in a bed with someone before so that was worrying more for me than him, esp when I had to leave for my job and walked out the door and could hear him crying. However Denise didn't look at me like I was crazy when I demonstrationed his feeding or his play and how to keep him focused on her and not distracted by the horses he desperately wanted to play with and was a bit fixated on lol. She sent me regular updates a couple pictures and a couple fetching videos, so this relieved my tension in him being here with her. Highly recommend. And will board with her anytime I have work in the valley from here on out

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Knik-Fairview home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Knik-Fairview.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Knik-Fairview sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the , which provides up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to 25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in AK ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
