Highlights
Pet care experience
Walk, Play, Come Over, or Stay! <3
I absolutely love pets, and I'm willing to bend over backwards to please your pet! I've only ever owned two dogs of my own, but I've cared for and dog-sat for many a friend over the years. I have experience with taking care of senior dogs, my own included, who often require special physical therapy for recovery or medications.
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Chris did great with Sally! Got updates and they went on plenty of hikes. Will definitely use again.
This was our first experience leaving Killian with someone. Chris was a perfect fit for him and we look forward to him having more time with her so we can travel!
Fisher loved his time with Chris! Hiking, walks and lots of snuggles. Thanks for providing a safe & fun place for us to keep our pup while we were away! We will absolutely be booking Chris again! :)
Pups came back happy and were very spoiled while staying over!
Chris has been a great and sensitive caregiver for my doggo. She's attentive to what he needs and keeps him safe on walks. She's kept him in her home and also come over for walks.
Chris was amazing and great at communicating!

Schedule
I'm a teacher for the Anchorage School District, so pet care will be outside of my working hours. If your pet can remain happy at my home while I'm at work and they're okay with being alone for about 8 hours during the work day, they're welcome to stay with me. I'm available weekdays after 4 and weekends all day for at-home visits, dog walks, or other pet care. :)
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced in yard and one friendly, older doggo of my own part time. (Her fur-daddy and I have shared custody, two weeks on, two weeks off). I'm familiar with giving prescriptions and care to sick doggos, as mine has been on medication for years for her heart condition, and has needed physical therapy treatments after various surgeries. I'll gladly visit your home if your pet prefers to remain in her/her environment.
Pets
A typical day
If a dog needs to remain on-leash, my favorite places to go are North Bivouac, Point Woronzoff, or just in various neighborhoods. If a dog likes to really get out and will reliably return to people who aren't their owners, I'll take them up various dog-friendly peaks, like Little O'Malley, Flattop or any of those peaks on that ridge, or the Dome. Turnagain Arm can be a great trail if it's before the snow starts to potentially avalanche. There are so many amazing places to take dogs here in Anchorage!
