“Dominique is the best, I always book with her to take care of my dog. She is attentive and thorough. She is quick to respond and sends videos and pictures. She has a special bond with all her dogs. As long as I’m in salt lake I will book with Dominique”
“I honestly can not say enough positive things about how incredible Kristine is with the dogs she cares for. Our little Lacee is part of our family and we are always so hesitant to leave her, she has separation anxiety and is generally stressed for days after we return. We left Lacee with Kristine for 2 days and came back to a very happy puppy. Our dog was well cared for, taken on walks, snuggled and we received frequent pictures and updates on how she was doing. I felt so much better leaving her with Kristine then anyone else we have left Lacee with. I will definitely use her every time we come to salt lake. She truly loves the puppies she is caring for. Kristine is great!”
“Naomi was a great sitter and I would highly recommend her to others. She took great care of our dog, provided updates and pictures, and got in touch with us with any questions that came up. We also really appreciate her flexibility in helping us out when we had to make last minute changes with our pick up. We will definitely use her again. Thank you!!”
“Tamara was amazing!! I had my timing and dates way off, and she was very flexible to meet my needs. She spent the time with us at drop off to listen to her care needs and allow my dog to acclimate to her place and her pups. She sent me regular pictures and videos, and she engaged in conversation with me even when I got to talking too much (lol). I definitely didn't worry about my baby girl for even a second under her care. You -will not regret- choosing Tamara as your next caretaker for your pooch. Affordable prices and AMAZING care, what more can you ask for?!”
“Tumaye took great care of my dog Bjorn while I was away on vacation! He sent photo and video updates which was nice to see what they were doing and where they were going. My dog came back happier than I left him which is always a good sign he had fun!!”
“Holly was amazing! Very accommodating, very communicative and very sweet! She made us feel very assured that our pups would be taken care of with the upmost care, and she followed through :) we will definitely be booking with her again in the future - thank you, Holly! 🐶🐕🦺🐩🐾💕”
“Vanessa was very good about keeping in touch to let me know how my girl Nina was doing, and also sent plenty of photos/updates. Nina seemed comfortable and well taken care of! I would definitely book with Vanessa again!”
“Josie loves them so much and so do we! We needed to get her nails clipped but didn’t have the time to do it before our trip. But! They took care of it for us! She got a little paw spa treatment from them and looks great! 🥰”
“Once again Lexi, Ollie & Louie were the hostesses with the mostest. Lexi provided great pictures and commentary on our kiddos stay. They seemed quite bored when they got home, which makes us feel good and bad. Lexi was so great to work with us when our plane was an hour late. We cannot thank her enough for taking such great care of our kiddos. She is the best.!🐶🐶🤗🤗”
“Banjo had so much fun and was extremely well taken care of!! Becca sent updates and photos, and even took initiative and cleaned his ear after noticing it had some gunk and asking me about it!”
“Alvaro was the best sitter!!! I have been looking for an excellent sitter and I’m so glad I chose Alvaro. He sent me pic updates and took such great care of my boy, I will definitely call upon him for future pet sitting!!!”
“Eliza did a great job with our girl. She sent regular updates, communication was great, and helped our girl feel comfortable. Would absolutely recommend!”
“Wonderful dog sitter, I highly recommend her services. We got lots of updates, pictures & excellent communication. My pitbull loved her, the environment & was very happy content & well cared for. This was a very good experience &I feel we got the best service possible. I couldn't of asked for a better dog sitter or care for my dog. Thank you for everything!”
About: Two decades of paws, whiskers, and wagging tails have taught me one thing: every pet deserves care tailored to them. I’ve shared my home with cats, dogs, and even small rodents over the past 20 years, and I currently dote on my own sweet cat. From leisurely dog walks to supporting chronically ill pets, I’m calm, capable, and quick to learn new routines. I also have experience house-sitting and pet-sitting simultaneously, so I understand the importance of respecting your home and privacy. You can trust me to keep your space just as you left it: tidy, secure, and well cared for. Because I work remotely, I can spend plenty of time throughout the day keeping your pet happy, comfortable, and loved. I work remotely, which means I have the flexibility to fit pet care seamlessly into my daily routine. I’m able to set aside time throughout the day, whether in the early morning, midday, or evening, to give pets the attention they need, from walks and playtime to feedings and medication. This means your furry family member gets consistent, reliable care without long stretches alone. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or in yours, I focus on following your instructions closely so your pet’s routine stays familiar and stress-free. I take the time to listen and learn about the little quirks and preferences that make each animal unique, whether that’s a favorite toy, a special feeding method, or a spot they love to nap. My goal is always to serve them in the way that’s best for their comfort, happiness, and well-being, while respecting your home and keeping it just as you left it.
“Ashley was incredibly communicative, patient, and kind kind to my pup, Sugar. She took sugar out often and I could tell from the videos sent to me, she was having a blast! I’ll definitely be booking with Ashley again!”

Ellie was amazing with my dogs . She kept in touch and was easy to work with since I was coming to Utah and needed care for the day for my yorkies. Ellie took them for a walk in the stroller. She sent me pictures and kept me updated on how things were going. I recommend Ellie and I will use her again if I'm back in town with my dogs.
Eliza was wonderful to work with—very easy to communicate with and flexible. Even though it was my first time using this service, I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog in her care. If I’m ever back in Salt Lake City, I’d definitely book with her again. Thank you, Eliza!
Tara went above and beyond in boarding my dog, Lexie, especially given I booked on short notice! She was incredibly communicative throughout the stay, sending regular messages, pictures, and videos that made me feel completely at ease while I was away. Beyond that, she was kind, patient, and welcoming at both drop-off and pick-up. Lexie clearly felt comfortable and happy with her, which speaks volumes. I cannot recommend Tara highly enough for anyone looking for thoughtful, reliable, and loving pet care.
Elizaveta was amazing!! She was so flexible with timing since my plans were so crazy while in Utah. She loved Pepper and cared for him like he was her own. She’s a delight of a person. She sent pics of Pepper to keep us updated as well. We plan to use her as our person while in Utah. Thankyou so much!
This was my dog’s very first time staying with someone outside of family, so naturally, I was a bit anxious. From the moment we met Megan, her warm and caring energy immediately put us at ease. My dog took to her right away and was completely comfortable from the start. Megan kept me updated every day with adorable photos, some so precious I’m considering framing them. It was clear she not only provided excellent care, but also truly enjoyed spending time with my dog. She even went the extra mile by trimming my dog’s nails at no charge, which was such a thoughtful touch. I can tell Megan genuinely cares about the pets she looks after and the peace of mind she gives their owners. I will absolutely be using her services again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter.
Alexandria was amazing! My dog Luna is blind, diabetic, and requires insulin injections every 12 hours. And due to her blindness, she gets anxious easily in new environments. Alexandria was able to make Luna feel right at home immediately and handled her insulin injections like a pro. She also sent tons of pictures. I'd highly recommend her as a sitter!
We are always so happy to have Hanna watch our dog Murphy. She takes great care of her and Murph always has a great time. This was a long stay and we felt totally at ease the entire time. Hanna gave us great updates and cute pics daily. She’s so friendly and kind! 10/10 recommend
Hannah was awesome! She was so sweet to our pup and he had such a good time at her house. He loved the backyard and her roommates were so kind to us and to him as well. She made sure he had a great time and she was prompt in her responses, photos, etc. She even took him to Petsmart and bought him a toy which was so thoughtful! 💙 He loves his toy! We will absolutely have him stay with her again, he was on vacation at her place. 😊 Thank you Hannah!!
