Dog Walkers in Lakes, AK

About: With over three years of hands-on experience in animal care, I bring both passion and professionalism to every furry friend I meet. I spent nearly two years working at a veterinary clinic, where I honed my skills in ensuring pets' health and happiness. Following that, I gained invaluable experience at a large boarding facility, managing the needs of dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. To further strengthen my abilities, I earned an Occupational Endorsement Certificate in Veterinary Assisting, equipping me with expert knowledge in animal health and behavior. Whether it’s providing top-notch care, creating a stress-free environment, or giving your pet all the love and attention they deserve, I’m here to ensure your companion feels safe and happy while in my care. I’m currently a college student taking online classes. My schedule is mostly flexible and drops ins or bathroom breaks are easy to do for me! My home is currently unavailable for client’s pets. I am able to come to your home for potty breaks and drop-ins just about any time and I’m more than happy to take your pups for walks!

“Ninia has done a wonderful job at walking Denali! She has been kind, a great communicator, asked some great questions that I did not think of, and really seems to care for animals so much! I’m thankful I have found her!”

About: I have one year of experience working in a boarding kennel where I worked with dogs, cats, and small exotic animals. I learned how to administer medications such as pills and even insulin to both cats and dogs. I’ve worked with all breeds, ages, and sizes of dogs and am able to help train the younger pups! I am currently working split shifts, 7:30am-11:30am & 2pm-6pm at a pet boarding facility. I’m working Thurs-Sat and can do drop in visits on those days and stay any other days needed! I will easily follow any instructions given along with frequent potty breaks, enrichment/playtime with your pups, feeding/water when needed or if any medications are needed, all while making sure your pet feels safe and comfortable at all times!

“Brooke is very responsive and I felt like my dog was in great hands!”

About: I have an old frenchie and breed frenchies. I have dealt with every situation imaginable with a dog. If you want someone who knows dogs I am ur girl. All day everyday. I work from home. I run my own businesses and can do whatever is needed whenever I’m needed. I am always with my dogs. I have had all my dogs trained and they eat at certain times and go to bed at certain times. We have routines daily. This helps keep them from total chaos.

“Very pleasant. I think Polar enjoys his walks.”

“Salem is great with Penny. She is friendly and always arrives for her walks with Penny on time. She communicates quickly.”

About: ** :( Only Burley & Greyson are still living- I just don’t have the heart to delete them off Rover .. I hate cancer** What sets me apart from other sitters is my experience and dedication to providing personalized care for every pet. I have a deep understanding of different needs, from training puppies to providing gentle care for senior animals. All of my animals have been extensively trained, and part of their training was my training to stay calm, and in control to make them feel safe, and at ease knowing their human would protect them! My home is a safe and loving environment where your pets will be treated like family, and my attention to detail ensures that all their needs are met, whether it’s special dietary requirements, medication, or extra playtime. I’m committed to making your pets feel comfortable, loved, and well-cared for, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. While I’m waiting for my state licensing to transfer to Hawaii, I’m available to help care for your pets. I know how important it is to ensure your animals are well taken care of, especially when life gets busy. Pet care can easily fit into my daily routine as I provide a safe, loving environment for your pets, even with a toddler in the house who is great with animals. Whether you need someone to watch your pets overnight or provide extra attention during the day, I’m here to help. In my home, I ensure pets feel comfortable and cared for by providing a warm, welcoming environment where they can feel at ease. Respecting our animals is a BIG part of our lives, because they were our first babies, and the human came last. I pay close attention to their needs, whether it’s feeding, walking, or simply offering companionship/snuggles. If caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow any specific instructions to maintain their routine and comfort, ensuring they receive the same love and attention they would at home. My goal is to make your pets feel safe and happy, whether they’re with me or in their own familiar surroundings.

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life. I had many family dogs and I got my boy 5 years ago and some change. I trained him myself and he brings me much joy! I love being around dogs and would love to take your pup on an outdoor adventure! I am a full time teacher but am wanting to do some walking after school and on the weekends! I am also available to house sit if needed. I am a very trustworthy person. I treat your dog as if it were my own. I know they are your babies and family. I will always do what is best for your dog and keep safe.

About: This is more of a hobby + good exercise+ a great way to walk 2x/day. If you decided to board at our house, I do have a cat and a 11 year old child. Our cat doesn't sleep regular hours at night so your pet would be free to roam the house and sleep in whichever room they prefer. We will also follow whatever schedule/directions you leave. I really need to prioritize my health again and would love walking a dog. I stay home while my son goes to school so I have time. We have one cat, Ramsey who is the coolest cat! He's most active at night. He sleeps from 8am-3pm (when my son is in school) with more naps throughout.

“April is respectful and reliable. She is caring and my pup is happy to see her. April was willing and able to work on the areas we are focusing on with training.”

About: I have two years of pet care facility experience. I am well versed in giving medications (including insulin), watching and keeping large groups of dogs safe and happy, and caring for pets of all ages and needs I am currently a barista and i’m focused on finishing my last year of high school! Because of my job i am not available for drop in visits and walks everyday but my schedule changes every week so please feel free to sends requests! I have years of experience in dog handling and will care for your pets with just as much love and attention as i care for mine. I have a 6 year old french bulldog that I love more than anything. He would love to play with your dogs just as long as all vaccines are current and they have socialization experience (no unprovoked dog aggression)!

“Great service. Delilah was happy to see her every day.”

About: I’ve devoted a pieces of my heart to a handful of animals throughout my life beginning before I could walk. Growing up on a farm, I naturally have a lot of experience caring for all animals in sickness and in health! Currently, I have one Lab-Springer mix and a Lop Bunny who live a full lives with lots of different activities, and both are extremely spoiled. I wouldn’t subject anyone else’s pet or fur-baby to any less standard. I’ve always loved other peoples animals. I’m currently only available Fridays through Sundays for all services I offer. Thank you for considering me to take care of your sweet fur baby! I believe in creating a safe and happy experience for your pets, whether we’re out for walks or I’m house sitting in your home. On walks, I keep a close eye on each pet to ensure they’re comfortable and having a great time. When house sitting, I stick to your routine and make sure your pets feel at ease in their own space. As a dog and bun mom myself, I know how important it is to provide a loving and caring environment. You can trust me to treat your pets like family and give them all the attention they deserve.

About: I’ve been an animal lover since birth. Getting my dog Blue at age 11 has taught me everything I know about love, companionship, and the responsibility of pet care. We added our cat Duncan to the family a few years ago and couldn’t be happier. I’m a barista at a local coffee shop and have my license in massage therapy as well. I love pets of all shapes and sizes and will treat them like my own! I’m currently working part-time and have 3 days off a week, during which I’ll be able to spend more time with your pet(s). The shifts I do work at the coffee shop aren’t more than 6-7 hours, so I’ll never be away from them for too long. For dogs, my standard care is taking them out every couple hours, taking them on regular walks, and making sure they have fresh water and food. For cats, cleaning the litter box daily as well as providing fresh water and food. Lots of cuddling and playing included with both.

“Laura was reliable and responsible. We have a sketchy dog and we were very comfortable with how she handled him. We will absolutely book her next time we need someone to walk Frank.”

About: I'm an outgoing person and love to hang out with animals! I have 3 dogs of my own and really enjoy spending time with them at home or outside. I work from home, which gives me time during the day to care for and play with allll the animals! I'm available most days and have a flexible schedule :) I have toys/bones/treats, a yard, and a garage to play in, plus 3 friendly dogs who love playing! I also have a large kennel if your dog likes/needs to have one available.

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 8, I loved getting to walk my grandmas dog and helping bathe her. I took care of pets for friends and family when they were out of town and made sure they felt loved. I got my own dog when I was 12 and loved taking her on walks and helping train her. I’m currently working part-time giving me the opportunity to give your pets the attention they need and deserve. I also have more time on the weekends to give them my undivided attention. I understand that all pets are different and I always make sure to respect any rules and decisions made by my clients. I make sure to give them the attention and exercise they need.
