Willow absolutely loved her time with this family. I loved that they sent pictures and updates to ease my mind as it was the first time i was away from her. I highly recommend them to anyone needing pet sitting.

Andrew was amazing! He accommodated my pup on a last minute, emergency basis and did so well with her! Shes a bit reactive and he was still more than willing to take her in and give her the attention and care she needed. Will definitely be back again in the future. Thanks!

Every time we board our dog with Krystal it's a great experience! She is flexible to little changes and is great accommodating our dog's little quirks. Anya is always happy when we drop her off and when we pick her up. We highly recommend Krystal!

Really good communication and took great care of our dog. Her own dogs were friendly and harmless and got along great with our dog. We would recommend Kari.

There are not enough nice things I can say about Jennifer. She was very accommodating with my schedule and took such great care of my pup Sophie. Her place is a wonderful retreat filled with places to relax and explore.

About: I have professional experience working at a dog resort in Arizona, where I learned the importance of structured care, behavior awareness, and creating a safe and positive environment for dogs of all temperaments. After moving to Alaska, I started sitting and have been providing pet care for the Kenai Peninsula for 3 years. Over time, I have built a strong group of regulars for our doggy daycare, which has been really rewarding and speaks to the trust our clients place in us. I focus on making sure each dog feels comfortable, active, and cared for just like they are at home. During their stay, dogs get plenty of outdoor time and exercise throughout the day (9 AM–10 PM). I also work on simple daily training and reinforcement with the dogs in my care to help improve behavior and manners. Communication is also a big priority for me. I provide regular updates, which include photos and videos, so owners can see how their pets are doing and feel connected while they’re away. I make sure clients are always informed with fast and clear communication throughout the stay. Most importantly, I treat every dog like my own. I pay attention to their individual needs, and I want both pets and owners to feel completely at ease. If a client isn’t happy, I’m not happy! It's really as simple as that. I am available for pet care daily from 9 AM to 10 PM, including weekends and holidays. This is a full-time commitment, and I maintain a consistent, reliable schedule year-round so owners can depend on me whenever they need care. I operate every day of the week and prioritize keeping dogs active, engaged, and comfortable throughout their stay. Our goal is to make sure each dog has attention and plenty of time outside during the day. I offer both doggy daycare and boarding, providing flexible care options based on each dog’s needs and each owner’s preference. Dogs are welcome in my home environment and also have access to multiple spaces depending on what best suits each dog’s comfort level, routine, and behavior. This allows me to adjust care on an individual basis rather than a 'one-size-fits-all' setup. I have a large fenced yard where dogs can safely socialize, play, and stay active throughout the day under supervision. For dogs that prefer quieter environments, I am able to separate them into other areas to ensure they feel more secure and stress-free. Cleanliness is a top priority in all of my spaces. I maintain a consistently clean and sanitary environment to ensure the health and safety of every dog in my care. I also focus heavily on socialization, positive interaction, and routine. Dogs are introduced and grouped appropriately based on temperament, energy level, and owner preferences. If requested, I also provide individual walks to ensure dogs get exercise and stimulation. I closely follow each owner’s instructions and preferences to make sure every dog is cared for exactly how they need to be. My goal is to provide a safe, structured, and comfortable environment where dogs can feel at home while receiving personalized care.

Ryan looked after my cat at the last moment when we were called away Unexpectedly for an emergency. My cat has bonded with him and I can tell from the many pictures he sends how much she enjoys her time with him.

Krystal was flexible with us regarding scheduling as we were there for a tournament and wanted our dog to have company. We were worried as he gets anxious being left somewhere new but she sent photos and eased our minds that he is having a great time. We will definitely come back. Thank you!

Best dog sitter ever! My dog might now love Alyssa and her family more than me. Lola has been going to doggy daycare with them for several months now, and I always know she’s safe and well-loved in their care. Highly recommend booking with Alyssa if she is available!

About: I've had many pets growing up and even now. I've mostly taken care of cats and dogs. I've had my dog Mochi for 8 years now and have been caring for her since she was a puppy. I am not currently working so I have plenty of time for furry friends! I am available for outdoor activities, playing inside, or just relaxing with your lovely pets. My goal is for you and your fluffy companion to be happy and comfortable. I have my own dog, Mochi, she will not be joining in on the fun unfortunately. I will treat every pet in my care as my own. I understand you may have a schedule set in place and I will follow as needed. Busy or relaxed I am flexible. I am here to work with you to make a game plan for the day according to your preferences.

Julianne is the best! She was so communicative from the onset and made sure she had all information caring for our English cream golden retrievers. So grateful for her photos, her care and loving our pups as her own!🐶❤️
