A local edge

Local know-how pays off in Anchorage

Anchorage winters are long, dark, and cold, with snow on the ground for months and only a few hours of daylight at the solstice. Sitters bundle up, use booties and reflective gear, and keep midwinter walks short, while summer's long daylight stretches them well into the evening.

When demand peaks

Demand peaks in summer (June through August) when residents travel and tourism surges, and over the winter holidays, with boarding and dog walking leading as owners head out of state.

Know your Anchorage routes

Most bookings cluster Spenard to the Hillside. Owners look for sitters who know the local parks, leash rules, and the breeds they keep, from Alaskan Husky, Siberian Husky, Labrador Retriever.
