Candice continues to be the best. I feel really secure knowing my girl is in such good hands when I’m out of town for a couple of days. It’s clear when I get back that my dog is relaxed and contented because she’s been so well cared for. I’m so thankful I found Candice.

Sheila was wonderful! She left detailed notes that reassured me that my pups were doing well and took the time to bring my shy dog out of her shell. I will definitely request her services again next time!

Christa has a way with animals - my cats liked her immediately when she came over to meet them before my trip. She sent pictures every day. Seeing that all was well helped me relax and enjoy the Thanksgiving holiday with my family!

About: Hi! My name is Liz and I LOVE dogs. My family has always had dogs, from beagle to German Shepherd Dog. I finally was able to rescue my own GSD mix last summer, so as a pet parent I fully appreciate what's it's like to be a dog mom. Please let me care for your pup as if it were my own! I am a teacher, which means I have a very flexible schedule in the summer and on weekends, and will be happy to care for your best friend while you're on vacation, out of town, at work, or otherwise unavailable. I am committed to maintaining your dog's normal schedule- food, potty breaks, walks, and rules that you already have in place in your home. I want your dog to feel safe, happy, loved, and well taken care of. I can't wait to meet you and your fur baby!

Stephanie is the best. She’s been walking/checking in on our (65 lb German Shepherd mix) dog sporadically over the last two years and it’s the highlight of our dog’s day. She loves on our dog as if they were long lost BFF’s. She is very trustworthy and reliable. We love Stephanie!

About: With over 20 years of hands-on experience, caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s been a lifelong passion. From a young age, I’ve been surrounded by animals and have dedicated my life to understanding and supporting their needs. I am a certified veterinary assistant and have worked professionally as a veterinary technician in a veterinary office in Utah, giving me a strong medical background and the ability to recognize and respond to a wide range of health and behavioral concerns. My experience also includes working in multiple kennels across many states where I cared for both dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. This has given me the skills to handle everything from energetic puppies to senior pets requiring extra patience and care. At home, I’m a proud pet owner myself. I have a 13-year-old Chihuahua that I’ve raised since he was a puppy, as well as an 11-year-old pit bull mix I rescued from a shelter in 2017, and my beloved cat I adopted in 2023. My own pets have given me firsthand experience with aging animals, rescue care, and the importance of providing a safe, loving environment. When you trust me with your pet, you can feel confident knowing they will be treated like family—with compassion, experience, and the highest level of care. I am open most days, as I homeschool my child. Saturday afternoons are usually reserved for personal time but I am available in the morning and night. I can let your dog out in your back yard, take them for a walk, clean litter boxes, do playtime, give food, water, and medications on their schedule.

About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 13 years and have experienced with a range of animals. Ive grown up with and taking care of dogs and also have experience with cats and horses. I’m considered my family and friends dog whisperer and go to for training and introducing dogs to one another. I’m a big believer that pets aren’t more than just pets, they’re our furry family members and deserve all the love in the world! I currently work full time but get home around 4 for evening play dates with the pups! I’m also available during the weekend and every other Friday for walks or check ins. I love an active lifestyle and love walks so I am more than able to walk the pups! I don’t have a fenced in yard but I am happy to go out and walk around as much as a dog may like!

About: Having two dogs of my own, and being trusted to walk, sit, and play with dogs from family and friends, I want to bring my love for animals to anyone who needs someone to look after them! I have worked with senior dogs that have medical needs and puppies that are still teething so all dogs will get what they need! I have an open schedule as I am a college student on summer break and can easily accommodate most schedules! I am available both on a routine and drop-in basis! I am very good at following detailed instructions and making sure that you get the exact care that you want. I am also comfortable handling dogs of all sizes so pulling/jumping is no issue!

About: I have been taking care of dogs most of my life whether it be the 2 dogs that have been part of my family or taking care of neighbors dogs when they are out of town. I currently work part time so my schedule for pet care is very flexible and I would be available at most hours of the day. I have experience taking care of older dogs who just need someone to hang out with and I’ve taken care of younger hyper dogs that warrant extra attention. I am comfortable walking dogs on and off leash and crating them if need be.

Rebecca was amazing!! She took great care of our pups and took adorable pictures of them too. She was very communicative and knows her stuff. We felt safe using her since she’s a vet tech, as our GSD has had health problems before! We will be using her again for sure :)
