Dog Walking Knik-Fairview

About: Hello! I am a 32 year old rescue mommy of a 1 year old tortoiseshell diva named Lizzie and I am a former dog grooming apprentice who has experience in animal product services (food, general medication, etc) and have owned mainly large breed dogs (Rottweilers and American Bulldogs) my whole life! I have done intern work at a veterinary clinic in the past and have worked with dog trainers as well! I have also owned small animals (rodents) and reptiles and am comfortable handling them. And of course, I love cats too! My best availability would be Monday-Friday in the morning and afternoon hours. Thank you for reading through my profile! I am a stay at home wife with my tortoiseshell cat Lizzie so my availability is flexible to work with your work and travel schedules! I believe in a patient approach when meeting new animals of any species and I go at their own pace. A soft hand and even softer voice are the key elements to the beginning of every animal friendship and your pet’s safety and comfort is my number one priority!

About: I have taken care of all sizes of dogs for about 8 months now. My family and family friends have trusted me to take care of their fur babies. Feeding them, giving them their meds, and following a daily routine (given from family of the dog) were all apart of things I’ve had to do as a dog house sitter. I have a job, I work about 6hour shifts at least 5 days a week and my schedule changes every week.I do school online so I will be able to do it whenever I have free time. BUT I am almost done with school and will be graduating in May. I would care for your pets by taking them outside, playing with them, feeding them, bathing them if necessary, and giving medicine if also necessary.

“Lance and Megan are amazing! Such sweet people that take amazing care of my goofy pup! My pup always comes back from his walks happy and ready for a nap. They're great at communication and our family highly recommends their services!!”

About: Hi! My name is Maggie and I’m a proud mama to 2 rescued weenie dogs. My husband and I just moved to Alaska! If anyone asks, I’m obsessed with all things dog and have a dachshund collection that’s over 50 items! Ha! I’m doing this mainly to find more dogs to love on and a bit of extra cash to help pay off loans. I promise I’ll love your dog like my own. I’m a very active runner so Ill be happy to walk/jog even the most playful pups! It would mean a lot if you considered me as your pup’s play date! Thank you for taking the time to read my profile! Hope to see you soon! Happy tails! I do work full-time but have plenty of time in the evenings and weekends to take care of your pups. Just let me know what you need and we can figure something out! We have plenty of space and always watch our dogs when they're outside. We treat our pups like they are little humans, so your pup will easily be spoiled.

About: I’ve had cats most of my life but have also had dogs, fish, birds, hamsters, mice, and guinea pigs! Spiders are the only pets I can’t handle. I’m currently unemployed and haven’t been able to find full time work due to the bus driver strike. So, Monday-Friday I take my high schooler to and from school and am free to take care of people’s fur babies all day and night! I love animals and treat them as my fur babies! I spoil them with attention and make sure they are well taken care of and happy!

About: Adult human with many years of pet-owning and pet-sitting experience. Have hosted 15 foster dogs and puppies in past 2 years, setting them up for success with regular exercise and clear and consistent rules. I have a good set-up for hosting both dogs and cats responsibly. Please contact with any questions. I am a stay-at-home supportive spouse, meaning I am available to treat your pets like I treat my own. My pets are spoiled. And well-behaved. For dogs - have a fenced-in yard for safe pottying. I have a friendly adult female dog - spayed, and two well-behaved cats. I have local trails available where I exercise my own dog. I can provide a crate, if desired - I do request that your dog be crate-trained and I cannot accommodate a dog with a heavy prey-drive. For cats, I have an unused bedroom set up as a private suite, that my own pets do not have access to. This room has a window and plenty of cat napping options. I live on a quiet street. I am available to give your cat as much attention as they desire.

About: When your dog stays with us, they become part of our everyday life not just a guest. Our home is calm, welcoming, and centered around making dogs feel comfortable, safe, and included. With me home all day, your pup gets real attention not just quick check-ins. Whether it’s playtime with Diesel, relaxing in the house, or just being close to people, your dog will always feel cared for and never overlooked. I take the time to learn your dog’s routine, personality, and needs so their stay feels familiar and stress-free. You’ll get regular updates and photos, so you can relax knowing your dog is happy, safe, and truly being cared for ❤️ I started doing this with my daughter because of our love for dogs, and it’s turned into something really special for us & we look forward to every stay❤️ 🐾🐶 Your dog’s safety and comfort are always my top priority. I provide constant supervision, ensure safe introductions, and give plenty of breaks when they need time to relax. With over an acre of fully fenced space, they’ll also have plenty of room to run, play, and get lots of exercise.

About: We don’t have a dog of our own, so every pup who stays with us becomes the center of attention in our home. I’ve been the go to dog sitter in my family for years, so I’m experienced with everything from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs. Your dog won’t just be “watched” here, they’ll be loved, included in our routine, and treated like part of the family. As a stay at home mom, pet care seamlessly fits into my daily routine. With my flexible schedule, I’m available at all times to ensure your furry friend receives the attention and care they deserve. My children and I cherish every moment spent snuggling, playing, and embarking on adventures with your beloved animal companions. From morning walks to bedtime cuddles, we prioritize the well being and happiness of your sweet companion as if they were our own. I treat pets like family, ensuring they get plenty of love, exercise, and attention during their stay. Following your instructions closely, I prioritize their safety and well being, providing a nurturing environment where they can thrive. With a genuine passion for animals, I’m committed to giving your furry friends the care and affection they deserve.

About: I’m not a teen :) so I will show up without fail on time every time. I’m not the cheap option but I guarantee that there’ll be no surprises if you hire me. If you have multiple pets, please reach out to me, we can discuss a personalized rate. I am around dogs and cats all my life, that’s my happy place and I love every aspect of it, even the not so glamorous parts like cleaning, listening to barking, or dealing with emergencies. I worked at a pet Resort for years here in Alaska working with all types of furry friends. I have a soft spot for seniors, I also have a lovely old lady in my home, a 12 year old German Shepherd, Molly. If I may suggest something to any pet owner in our valley: please don’t choose your sitter based on who’s the cheapest available option… taking care of your pets in your home is a big responsibility. Great joy as well of course but it must be done with 100% attention, care and love. I can promise that 100% because that’s the only setting in my book when it comes to animals. Please feel free to reach out to me if you need help, I would love to be there for you and for your pets. I raised three children, all grown-up now. I have the time now for your pets. Because of my love for animals, I look forward to helping you when you need it! Safety is THE most important aspect of taking care of a pet, so before I start working with one I always have multiple questions to the owner. Knowing your doggie, knowing the routine, the environment etc is a crucial factor in providing a safe and quality service.

About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life. I see it as my job and make it a priority to provide a professional peaceful experience. Between my partner and I we have experience ranging from but not limited to dogs exotic animals live stock and more. I serve from homer to big lake. Also my partner is a handy man that can provide grounds keeping, maintance, welding, construction, etc if necessary I treat this as my full time job. Building genuine relationships with the clients as well as the pets is a priority as well as providing peace of mind,personal touch, and professional experience. I provide in the pets home. I feel keeping them in their element is important. I adhere to their routine and provide a safe healthy environment for them as well as genuine companionship.

About: I’ve had pets my whole life, so becoming a dog and cat sitter 4 years ago was a given. From senior snoozers to zoomy puppies, from ‘don’t touch me’ cats to ‘please love me immediately’ cats—I’ve handled it all and loved every second. I’m currently part time so I would have plenty of time to check in with your pets. My job is very flexible with breaks so I would still be able to check in halfway through the day. If watching pets in your home, I will ask for a list of expectations (feed times, concerns) so I can do the best job. I will be diligent about updating you, sending photos, and asking questions if they arise.

“Ashley did great with Cora. Took her time and was patient. I appreciate the extra details she took to make sure. Cora would be comfortable for the rest of the afternoon.”

About: I have puppy sat for a couple years now. I love all animals and I’m very physically fit to take care of them. I can’t have a puppy of my own right now so I love taking care and spending time with them when I can. I’m available 24/7 right now. Animals can’t stay at my place, but I am free to stay with them overnight or whatever is needed. I can stay weekends as well. I can stay with the Dog/pup 24/7. I can stay overnight, take them on walks, any kind of care that is needed I can take care of.

About: I have worked in the pet sitting world for 10 years. I have cared for all types of dogs, cats, rabbits, guinea pigs, mice & rats, ferrets, and hamsters. I am skilled in giving pet medication for your furry friends special needs. I have worked with dogs & cats of all ages and sizes. I can provide care for puppies that will need the extra TLC of frequent potty breaks, play time and even work on some training & obedience skills. I can provide long walks, dog runs, adventure days, quick potty breaks and dedicated play sessions for your pet. For smaller pets (rabbits, guinea pigs etc) I am familiar with the special care that comes with their needs as I have small pets of my own. I am always willing to work with the client and their pets needs. I look forward to meeting your fur babies! i am currently only doing pet sitting, so i am free to attend to needs through out the day + week. please reach out for availability! Dog walking: I do my best to stick to your pets routines. If your dog is on a more structured schedule/obedience, I will keep them on that schedule. I will keep pets crated if told to do so. Walks will always start with greeting/leashing, then we head out for fun! Upon arrival back to your home, pups will get a treat, fresh water, and some love before I leave. Pet photos will be sent to the client after our walk. For house boarding & Doggy Day Care: all pets including my own dog, will always be crated upon leaving the home for their own safety. I will only allow dogs to stay in my home upon meeting the dog first, and making sure they're dog friendly and okay with cats. I prefer to keep only one other dog in my home at a time but will make exceptions for the right dogs/fit. dogs are expected to be well behaved in my home and not have destructive or aggressive habits.

About: Ready to get those paws moving! As an Anchorage local, I know how important it is for our dogs to get fresh air and exercise, regardless of the weather. I specialize in high-energy walks to help burn off those "zoomies" so you can come home to a calm, happy pup. I’m punctual, active, and dedicated to making sure your dog has a safe and fun adventure every time I grab the leash. I currently do not work so I am available 24 x 7 at this time. Plenty of time to offer love & care to your fur babies. I am also available to stay or visit your place if you feel more secure that way. I'm looking for a few ongoing visits as to not only build a relationship with the fur babies but as to make the stays as stress free as possible for both human & pet. I have a 1 bed flat. Plenty of dog parks and places to go for a walk. I do not have a fenced in yard but the dog parks and outside is where we like to he as a family.

“Tommy was very responsive, communicated well, and took care of all our dog’s needs! He made us feel very comfortable leaving our dogs in his care!”
