House Sitting North Star

“Izabelle was so great with my dog and understanding of his specific needs. I even came home to fresh baked cookies! Such a nice touch! 10 out of 10!”

“Phenomenal. Rachel was an absolute blessing when all my regulars were unavailable. She was great with the dogs - including a very high energy puppy. She kept me updated regularly and was so accommodating as my plans changed last minute. It’s always a little weird to welcome a stranger into your home, but meeting Rachel the pre-visit, I knew immediately she was a kind and trustworthy person with a true love for animals.”

About: My name is Jacob and I have 15 years of experience caring for mine and my family's pets. I also have approximately 4 years of volunteer experience at shelters caring for cats and dogs. I have experience walking and caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds and energy levels. From tiny pups to large, strong dogs, I'm confident handling them safely and calmly. I've worked with dogs that have behavioral challenges such as leash reactivity, anxiety, fearfulness and high energy. I'm patient, attentive, and always focused on understanding each dog's unique needs. I'm autistic, and I've found that this often allows me to connect especially well with animals. I'm very attentive to body language, routines, and subtle behavior changes, which helps me respond calmly and consistently- particularly with dogs who need a little extra understanding. My goal is to make every walk a positive, stress-free experience. My schedule is pretty flexible to do drop-in care for your pets or walks as needed. I am willing to work with clients so they can get the care they need for their pets. I am willing to do drop-in care at client's homes as needed. I can also take dogs for walks from client's homes as requested by client.

“Catherine was amazing with Obi! Very responsive, extremely clean, and provided the best care possible for our injured pup. Will book with Catherine again for sure!”

“Natalie was phenomenal and took such great care of my home, Great Dane, 3 cats, and snake while I was gone! Highly recommend booking her and I will definitely be using her again in the future!”

Aleksa G.

“Took great care of my pup while we were gone for a little weekend getaway! She stayed for a while each time and loved on him! We are super grateful.”

Samantha G.

“Sarah did a great job of taking care of my pup and house. The pup was happy and heathy at the end of Sarah’s stay and the house was very tidy. I’d highly recommend Sarah to anyone needing a sitter!”

Nate B.

“We loved having Kerry house sit for our dogs. She is very good with them and we can tell our old ladies were well taken care of. She is observant and communicates well.”

Jeremy S.

“Karina was absolutely wonderful!! She sent daily updates, and was really great with all our animals. We have a picky dog who’s not much of a people dog, but he fell in love with her instantly.”

About: Hi there! I have been training and working with dogs of all ages for over 10 year now. Never too old to learn a new trick:) I am extremely versatile and happy to adapt to your pups speed. I love adventuring along side mans best friend. I love long hikes too:) As well as being a dog trainer I am also a horse trainer! I have trained dogs to work with horses, bikes, and on or off the leash walks:) Excited to meet your pup! I am currently working towards my bachelors in nursing. I am doing most of it online therefore I have a very flexible schedule! Always looking for more time and adventures with dogs. Patients is key! I understand not every dog is ready to jump into a new environment! And I am ready to work with them. Whether it is fear of being created, scared of new trails or people. We will work through it together(maybe with a little help from treats!) I am very aware of diets and allergies. And will keep your friend as safe as I would keep my own!

“We had Jakob and Ida dog/housesit for a few days and was pleased with their service. Jakob kept me informed and as promised dogs were tired from their walk when we got home. Plan to continue to use them for dog walking as well as house sitting services.”

“Isabella , is very easy to work with and really communicates with you, i highly recommend her to take care of hour fur babies, we went out on s fishing trip amd she watched them while we were out, would definitely use her again.”

Carolyn E.

“Sarah was an amazing house sitter. She was great with both of my cats and empathetic to their individual needs. The house was spotless and both cats loved her.”

Patricia T.

“Sydney was great with my dogs. One of them has behavioral issues and can be difficult until she warms up to people. The other is a senior dog who requires special care. Sydney was patient with them both and they were healthy and happy when I got home. I would absolutely rebook Sydney.”

Laura S.

“Freya was excellent with our spoiled dogs. Older boxer needs help getting up and down steps to go out, our middle aged german shepherd needs exercise daily by ball throwing in the back yard…they were raised on acrerage, not very socialized and we now live in town near a busy street so always fear they’ll take off chasing someone… (cuz they’re not leash dogs). The boys immediately liked her which sealed the deal when they met. She left our house perfect and we highly recommend her for your beloved pets.”

Debra B.

“Nancy was super reliable, communicated well, & is a very nice person. My home was in great condition. I’ve had a number of rough experiences with prior sitters, so it meant a lot to not have to worry about my dog at all while on a work trip. I highly recommend Nancy!”

Ali M.

“Katraena was super flexible and responsive prior to our booking and came for a meet and greet the very day I messaged her! Once we met her, it was obvious she loves dogs and would be a great fit. She took great care of our two high energy pups and our house. She sent lots of pics and updates as well! Definitely recommend.”

About: Hi, I'm Audrey! I've been pet sitting for several years, and I love animals, especially dogs. In the summer I work as a Girl Scout camp counselor, so I definitely have experience wrangling large groups of small chaotic mammals! I have babysat everything from puppies to senior dogs, in all shapes and sizes, and even other animals like guinea pigs. I would love to hang out with your animals and give them lots of love and kisses! I'm currently a biology major at UAA, so I have classes Monday through Thursday. All of my classes are in the late morning and afternoon, so I will be at home with your animals in the mornings and evenings. I love to just hang out with animals! I usually spend a lot of time on the couch studying or reading with client animals next to (or on top of) me. I have no issues with animals sleeping in the same bed as me. My car is dog-proofed if you want me to take your dog(s) on a field trip to the dog park or their favorite walking trail. I am also quite good with plants, so I can take care of those for you at no extra charge.

“Bradley did a fantastic job house and petting sitting my 2 dogs and 5 chickens. He was a good communicator and followed instructions perfectly. I highly recommend him to anyone needing a pet sitter.”

Jamie Y.

“Brandi was amazing! She took fantastic care of my pups. She continuously provided photos, stories, and updates daily. If there were any unforeseen issues that arose, she handled it very professionally and kept me in the loop the whole time. It was a relief to know that I left my pups in capable and loving hands!! She even left a bag of treats for my pups at the end and they love them!”
