Dog Walking Spenard

“Erica was amazing with my dog Roscoe! I loved her comments and pictures from the walks. She was reliable and considerate and I highly recommend her.”

“Jacob was fantastic. My dog is not always easy to work with due to some resource guarding issues, but Jacob had the patience and kindness to meet his needs. I feel very lucky that he took care of my dog, and I will be seeking his help again in the future.”

“Katy has been great with my dog, Scruff. He needed a ton of patience starting out and she worked with him to get him used to a dog walker. He actually got a little grumpy with me one day when I stayed home sick and she didn’t come.”

“Prompt response, great communication, my dog had an amazing time!”

About: I have been cat sitting and dog walking for the past two years for coworkers and family friends- and now I’m on Rover too! I’ve got two golden retrievers of my own who I love dearly as well! I am a student at the University of Vermont studying political science and english! During the summers I come home to Anchorage, Alaska. I love all things outdoors- hiking, running, you name it. I have also been working part time at Middle Way Cafe (in Anchorage) for almost 3 years. Because I have grown up with animals, I feel confident in my ability to care for them. I also volunteer at our local animal shelters and am passionate about finding animals good homes! I value communication and will update you on your pets mood, send pictures, etc. I have a lot of experience with anxious dogs, so rest assured your pets are in good hands even if they tend to be nervous when you leave.

About: Me and my girlfriend are looking to hangout with some puppies, because every dog is a puppy to us. We left ours in Sitka with my father and brother. We just want to do this for the love of dogs and animals!!! I work with animals for my career and just love being around them! My girlfriend is also a big animal lover wish we had our pets here! We follow instructions carefully that the owner tells us to. Don’t over step any boundaries, and will always make sure the pet is safe and comfortable

“Izabelle is very professional and great with our Akita.”

About: hi everyone!! my name is Kristina, a transplant from Bellingham, WA and it is so lovely to meet you! I have been connecting and caring for animals since a young child. From starting a dog sitting business as an 11 yr old (short lived but to volunteering at local shelters and assisting in the vet clinic, I have had the privilege of learning from and caring for our furry friends for a lifetime. My partner and I will be relocating to Anchorage and looking to sit together. When I’m not in search of the next furry friend to meet, I am typically out on the land climbing, laying on the grass, or dancing in the rain. I work in Youth Development and dream of bridging my love of animals, with therapeutic methods someday! I will be located in the Anchorage area for the whole month of October! I will be relocating with my partner and looking to sit together. My weekly schedule is incredibly open for all pet needs. Mornings, and afternoons on weekdays typically work best as well as weekend house sitting needs! Looking forward to connecting with you more :) As a cat momma myself, I understand how difficult it can be entrusting others for the care of our precious animals. As much as I value the connection I build with your animals, I want to connect and build trust with you as well! I believe every pet deserves care and love that is met at their speed. I value creating a genuine connection with your animal and commit to always working to ‘tune in’ with them. I meet them right where they are with lots of patience, gentle encouragement, and love. My background as a vet assistant and shelter volunteer has given me a deep understanding of animal body language, stress signals, and medical needs. I feel confident in reading what a pet is telling me and make sure they feel totally secure. Because I want pets to feel as happy and relaxed as possible, I currently focus exclusively on house sitting!

“Osa and I liked Margot right away. She was early, very communicative, was ready with treats and a ball, and sent me lots of photos. We look forward to booking with her again :)”

About: I attended veterinary science at kcc for two years and continued on after that interning at clinics. CPR certified for pups & avid dog lady. Will love and care for your pups like they're my own. I am also well versed in dog allergic reactions and common diseases/infections & will alert you accordingly. I started my own dog walking/poop scooping business at 12 that I ran until I was 16 with over 10 returning clients! Caring for dogs has always felt like it’s what I’m supposed to do(: I work from home so I spend my days with my pup alternating between walks, car rides and work! I also have 2 cats who (as most cat lovers know) usually keep to themselves though I have seen them become affectionate with some dogs with calmer temperaments! My life revolves around these little critters and if you entrust me with your furry friend they will quickly become part of the pack and my life will revolve around them too while I have them! My home is a two story two bedroom home with a fenced yard and is fully doggie proofed/puppy proofed. I am a dog lady so I do allow dogs on my furniture and bed(unless I'm told otherwise by owners). I live about 5 minutes walking distance from a fenced dog park which I visit regularly and I take drives to Klatt field fenced in dog park regularly. I run a fairly lenient but still well kemp ship here, we all sit on the couch and hangout together and they’re all allowed on the bed at bedtime with me (unless I’m told otherwise). If a crate is needed I do have one kennel fit for an up to 80lbs dog that I keep in my downstairs room! If you’re inquiring about house sitting then consider me there! My husband and I both take care of our animals so if I am at your house, my animals won’t be an issue(:

About: I have never met a dog or cat that I did not immediately fall in love with! I am willing to put so much time and effort into helping your pet feel comfortable with me! I know how special pets and animals are, and I ensure each pet I care for feels incredibly loved and spoiled. I have cared for dogs and cats of all ages, ranging from puppies and kittens, all the way to senior aged pets! I know firsthand some of the special considerations that a pet caretaker needs to consider. I am very active and love taking pets for adventures, giving them lots of stimulation, and overall helping them have a fantastic day! There is nothing I love more than play time with a dog or cat! I am fully free Friday to Sunday to give your pet all my attention! During the week, I provide care in the morning and evening. I ensure they get all attention they need with tons of exercise and play. There is nothing I like more than playing with a cat or dog and I will bring this love and attention to your pet. I will follow all safety requirements and ensure safety for your pet. I maintain safety during interaction with other pets by specifying your pets comfort before hand and monitoring the interactions closely.

About: Hey there! My name is Lauryn. I am an animal loving, dedicated former vet clinic employee with a passion for all critters big and small (including the scaled friends!). I have 7 years of animal hospital experience in Alaska and am confident in my skills to provide care and love to all of your pets. My new role is fully remote, allowing plenty of time to be home with your pets! My parents owned a vet clinic for 15 years and I grew up in the trade. Starting at 15, I began pet sitting and dog walking and eventually moved on to being a kennel technician. I have also worked at dog boarding facilities and frequently volunteer at various rescues. I can confidently handle any size, age and breed. Caring for animals is something I am passionate about. I am flexible with your requests. I am able to administer medications should your pet need them. My biggest goal is to make your pets happy and your mind at ease. Whether it be a walk and some fetch with the ball or just lounging around getting belly rubs, I look forward to meeting you and your pets. Thank you! I currently work full time M-F, fully remote! I am also available entirely on weekends and holidays. This allows me plenty of time to spend with your pets. As I am taking care of your pet(s) in your home, I will follow any and all requests or guidelines you set to ensure your baby is happy and healthy at home. I look forward to sending photo and video updates to you as well, should you like those!

About: I've had dogs since I was born on and off for the past twenty six years. I have fallen in love with all of fur babies. Im very attentive and mindful of dog behaviors. And we'll adapt to the situation when needed. I am on a sabbatical and am looking for some adventure. With a passion for animals this is my perfect avenue to find that adventure. I have no problem traveling between clients, and adjusting the preferences, depending on the fur baby. I am a loving and warm spirit and doesn't mind taking time to get to now the fur baby before anything proceeds.

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 have a fenced in yard but the dog parks and outside is where we like to be as a family.

“Great communication and the dogs loved her.”

About: I love animals! I am able to walk far distances and care for specific needs. I have a cat of my own and can drive to your house. I am currently working as a barista downtown and own a car. I am able to drive to your location no matter the day and feed/ care for your animal. I am not able to house pets at my own house but feel absolutely fine going to your location. I am able to spend overnights there as well.

About: Current medical student with so much motivation to get outside with my dog in between studying. I'm also a professional photographer, so expect lot's of photos of your pup! When I was a kid, I always wanted a dog….but we owned everything except a dog due to our lack of a yard. To solve this, I would knock on my neighbors doors to walk and play with their dogs everyday. Now I can finally live out my hotel for dogs dreams. My rescue dog, Cowboy, would also love a furry friend. He was the dog the shelter used to socialize their dogs and I’m sure he misses it. I hope I can help you out and use the experience I’ve gained from training him and the dogs in my childhood to love and care for your friend! I work from home and have plenty of time to care for your pet. I take my dog on 2 walks a day and spend a lot of time playing, training, and cuddling. I would love to share this time with your pet too. Dog sitting can look like me residing in your place for the duration of the booking or just coming by for drops ins/walks. Just let me know what you’re looking for!

About: I’ve taken care of neighbors and friends dogs for years! i love going over and meeting new dogs and playing and. taking care of them! I am in college currently but have plenty of free time to watch and play with animals! Most my classes are online so the longest I would have to be away would be 2 hours! I have a fully fenced yard and allow dogs in my home! I can’t wait to have your dogs over and take care of them!
