House Sitting in University Area, Anchorage, AK

About: I’ve loved and cared for animals just about my whole life. I’ve taken care of cats & dogs from the puppy/kitten stage all the way to senior. I have taken care of my friends and family’s pets as well and id love to meet and care for yours too :) I’ve also volunteered at an animal shelter. I’ve been trying to do Rover full-time this year. It’s been great, but life is changing and I will mostly be doing just house sitting from now on. But you can always ask me if your dog needs to be walked or cats checked on, cause there’s a chance I could make it work. I’m mostly available in the afternoon & evenings. Right now I am looking for another job but I love being around animals so I still want to do jobs for rover when I can :) I currently have a cat at home. And I take care of my family’s dogs whenever they need it. I also volunteer with animals. . I try to spend as much time with animals as I can.

“Rachel was very accommodating when my flights were delayed and then cancelled. My dog enjoys his time with her along with my cat who is slow to warm up to others. It’s nice to have a pet sitter you can trust! Will continue to book.”

“Best pet sitter ever! Benita is amazing with my pack and she took wonderful care of them. Dealt with their quirks;, provided lots of updates with pics and video, administered medications and kept them all happy and loved. Will definitely book again lots!

“Alexa was amazing with our big boy Gino and took great care of the house. She was quick to communicate and was willing to extend her stay when we had a family matter to deal with. Would trust our dogs and house with her again for sure!”

About: Growing up I have had both dogs and cats and was responsible in taking care of both. I carried the skills I learned as I left for college and looked after fellow students and friends pets. Not just watching over their beloved animals, feeding and playing with them, but also teaching them new tricks of the owners were okay with it. Currently and until May I will have classes for 1 hour everyday in the afternoon Mon through Thursdays. Other than that I will be available to pet sit. Currently I do not have a busy schedule so I am able to watch and care for your pets for an extended period of time.

“Sierra took great care of my three dogs (one of which is a 3 month old puppy)! She was communicative and sent updates and photos. Would hire her to watch them again!”

“I highly recommend Nancy. She was very professional from the beginning and took the job serious. She kept in touch daily and sent pictures of the dogs. I came home to a clean house and happy dogs. Thank you, Nancy!”

“Hope did an amazing job watching our dogs and cat. She gave us consistent updates and we never had to worry about our little ones while they were under her care”

Chase W.

“Absolutely loved Ellen! The puppies loved her, she kept us updated on the trip, and she did things around the house to make our return home even better, like making sure the pillows and blankets on the couch were tidy, and putting the sheets in the wash. I wish she was available every time we needed to go out of town! We will definitely contact Ellen again!”

Becca S.

“She is a wonderful dog sitter! I recommend her 100% for caring for your fur babies. She is flexible with my changing schedule this few day trip. Fast communication and got many pictures and videos. She is patient and kind to my pets, trust her 100%”

“It was our first time using Zack and we’re a fan! We have a very exuberant pitty who is a challenge to manage due to her strength and love for everything except the word ‘no.’ Our ‘kids’ loved him and one can tell he has a special place in his heart for animals the minute you meet him. Zack is conscientious and thorough, communicates clearly and leaves the house tidy. What’s not to love?! We will definitely book again in the future. Thank you, Zack! ?”

“Nick is amazing. My GSD does not care about people in general and she was all over Nick, that spoke volumes for me. He took great care of the dogs and the apt. He communicated well and it was so nice to go on vacation and know they were in good hands. It was so much more relaxing , I truly appreciated the peace of mind. Nick came for initial visit and prior to my trip. I can't say enough good things!! And to top it off he has good taste in authors!! Thank you Nick!!!! Hope to see you again. I feel like I can travel more now.”

Barbara S.

“Tynesha took really great care of our home and our babies, even to the point of having to scour the house to find the "hider." But she did it! They were well fed and cared for during our trip. Good and fast communication, she received and stored our package deliveries for us. House was clean and fresh on our arrival back! We are ever grateful for Tynesha's care for all of us! Not having to worry about your home and pets while on leave is a very nice feeling!”

Francis-Michel S.

“Alba is a great pet sitter! Alba took care of my pup like her own and she consistently took him on walks and took great pics too! When it was raining she brought a rain coat for my dog😊. Alba is so sweet and I would trust her with my dog. I will request her from now on. She is great!”

“This woman is a blessing! We had her house sit/pet sit our house and dogs (Japanese Akita and Shiba) for 3 weeks and she did an amazing job. Very professional and respectful. She kept in touch with me daily about the boys and the house, with zero issues. I recommend her 💯 Thank you Jenny 😊”

David M.

“I can’t give Erica enough stars, she is absolutely amazing. During my recent trip, Erica stayed at my place and took care of my pet for ~ 2 weeks. She was quick to gain the trust of my anti-social cat, she communicated with me nearly daily, and my cat was happy and well cared for while I was gone. Erica also was an excellent house guest and left the place in great/tidy condition (probably better than I had left it). Thanks again Erica for taking such great care of Toed!”

Becky S.

“Sydney was great about sending me pictures and updates every morning and evening. It made me so happy to see my pups cuddling with Sydney and gave me a lot of comfort while I was away! The house looked great when I got back and my pups was healthy and happy :)”

“Scott did a fantastic job taking care of our four legged furry children! He was very attentive to their needs and asked questions to make his stay with them just like us still being home! It's a difficult decision to leave your home to somebody and the care of your family pets but Scott kept us posted on his stay and sent pictures of our pets laid back and relaxed! He even taught our one pet to "Drop it. Very appreciative of that. I would highly recommend Scott to take care of your family pets and their needs.”

“Ashley stayed in our home and took care of our older guy, Finn. She took great care of him - when the visit was over, he seemed sad that she was leaving. He was in great shape and great spirits, which is saying something because he suffers from separation anxiety. Our home was in perfect shape when we returned. I highly recommend her - she is wonderful.”

Paula W.

“Bonsai had the best time with Maya! She took care of him so well and it was amazing to come home after two weeks away to such a happy dog and a clean home. I really appreciated that Maya got Bonsai out on the trails and gave him so much care and attention. We also appreciated the photo updates so the kids could see that he was happy and taken care of. Thank you so much Maya!”
