Reliable Pet Care For Busy Families
Hooman for Hire brings real expertise to pet care in Anchorage and Eagle River. Every service we offer is grounded in pet enrichment, with your pet's health, safety, and fulfillment at the center of everything we do.
We built this company because pets and their families deserve care they can count on, from people who know what they're doing and show up the same way every time. Our team stays small by design, so the person your dog knows becomes someone your family knows too.
Employed, Not Contracted
Every Hooman is a background-checked, trained W2 employee supported by management.
Recurring Weekly Care
We're built for consistency where the real difference shows up, in your dog's behavior, routine, and overall happiness.
Real-Time Updates
GPS tracking, arrival notifications, post-walk photos, and a visit report after every single service.
Built For Alaska
We know the trails, the neighborhoods, and are prepared when weather accommodations are needed.
Built For Pets Who Value Consistency

About Hooman
For Hire
Hooman for Hire was started in 2019 with one goal: to build the kind of pet care company Anchorage actually needs and deserves. Our foundation came from veterinary medicine and enrichment, and this experience shapes everything about how we operate, who we hire, and how we show up for your animals.
Our team is trained, employed, and genuinely invested in the pets they care for. We aim to be the name you trust without thinking twice and the team your pets recognize at the door and your household counts on, week after week.
We're proud to be part of this community, and we'd love to be part of yours.

“Thanks so much for taking good care of her. I can tell she likes you because she’s not hiding in the bedroom anymore!”
“Thank you for the updates and for taking care of our buns! Our sitters illustrated knowledge and compassion in caring for our pets while we were away. What a relief to know they were in the hands of professionals, and we truly enjoyed the frequent updates!"
“Love the team at H4H! We have 2 very active pups. One is dog reactive so you can't take them to dog parks. The team does great with them and the doggos love seeing them! We do 1 hr walks/play time as well as petsitting when we are away. Always great daily pictures and reports.”
"Ahhhh…thank you so much! My boy is thriving with the help you all provide. Thank you so much!"
I am so glad to have found Hooman for Hire! My dog absolutely adores every member of the team he has interacted with. I have such peace of mind knowing that Hooman for Hire is getting my dog out for play and exercise while I am at work (and I love getting the updates and photos after every visit). I am usually a worrier when it comes to my dog, but I have absolutely zero worries when my dog is in their care. I highly recommend the Hooman for Hire team!
"Hooman for Hire is consistently reliable, I can set my watch to you. Our girl is in paradise when she comes home from walks with Hoomans."
“Hooman are the best dog sitters and walkers I've ever worked with! I have a quirky, sweet, but difficult in some ways Pomeranian boy and they did a wonderful job with him! They are one of the very few he has ever warmed up to. I truly appreciate them and have used them twice now and will be continuing in the future. So grateful to be able to take trips and know he's well taken care of!!”
“What amazing service! Im thankful for your thoughtful care of my babies while I was away. Everyone was very professional and there was great communication while we were gone. My pups were happy and well exercised and my house was left in perfect condition.”
