“Sadie always has a great time with Sheila! Since I'm gone 12 hours a day, it feels good knowing that I can depend on Sheila to help take care of my dog. She was very thorough and asked good questions during our first meeting, and lets me know far in advance if she's going to be out of town.”

About: I am not only in love with all animals, but it is my passion and future career to help animals in need of representation and humane treatment. Animals have been my sole focus since childhood, and my education (bachelors degree in Health, Society and Policy) and career choices have and will reflect that. I am not only responsible, but have that extra mile of love and empathy to give. I feel as though this provides owners more comfort in knowing who is caring for their babies. I am athletic and very much so enjoy taking them out instead of looking at it as a chore. I have an extremely flexible schedule, and a lot of time to give. I have no fears of animals and difficult behavioral issues that may occur. I am also a mega communicator! I will always keep the owner in the loop so we are always on the same page. I live with 3 dogs currently that belong to my bestfriend/roommate. I am with them all day and night, and watch them frequently on my own when their mom is out. I care for them, walk them, feed them and sleep with them. I also frequently dog sit for days at a time at another owners house. The biggest thing is that I spend all of the time with them. A lot of dog sitters make sure they have the basic needs like food water and go to the bathroom, but I LOVE to get in that extra love time with them to make sure they also have the attention. It helps them trust more, and helps with the anxiety of their parent being gone. I love making the walks longer for them, and being patient.
“Molly has been absolutely wonderful walking my senior dog while I’m at work. She is timely, responds quickly, and takes great care of my Riley. I would highly recommend her for your pet care needs!!!”

“Madelyn was great with Val and took great care of her for her hour check-in. She was very communicative and our pup was one happy, tired girl when we got home. We’ll definitely reach out to Madelyn for help in the future!”

“Fiona was great! She communicated very well and fast with me. It was a last minute booking but she acted very fast. She was amazing with Muninn and she sent me pics during the wee break!”

“Paige is everything that I was hoping to find in a dog walker! My pup loved her immediately. She is very reliable, easy going, and communicative. So glad to have found her. Highly recommended.”

About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve spent more than 20 years raising dogs — including a Spitz–Collie mix, Japanese Akita, Elkhound, German Shepherd mix, and Doberman — and I’ve been a Zen cat mom to two wonderful cats, a tortoiseshell and a tuxedo, for the past 15 years. I’m new to the area and absolutely love animals. As an entrepreneur, I’m able to keep a flexible schedule, which allows me to be available for pet care. I see pet sitting as a wonderful way to stay active while exploring and getting to know my new community. I tailor my care to each pet’s routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. In your home, I follow your instructions closely — including feeding schedules, fresh water, litter box or yard breaks, walks, medications (if needed), and favorite routines or rituals. During house sitting and drop-in visits, I also keep an eye on your home’s safety, bring in mail or packages, and maintain a calm, tidy environment. For dogs, I provide structured walks, playtime, and plenty of affection while respecting their energy level and training style. For cats, I offer gentle interaction at their pace — whether that’s playtime, quiet companionship, or simply maintaining their preferred environment — along with daily litter care and enrichment. My goal is always to reduce stress, maintain consistency, and ensure every pet feels secure, seen, and well-cared for in their familiar space.
“Marissa is great with our dog! Our dog is always so excited to see her. She took our dog out when it was snowing and made sure he still got his exercise despite the weather. She always communicates how the walk goes. Our dog is vocal around other dogs and she handles it great with distractions.”

About: I’ve had about six different dogs in my family before, several of which were huge English mastiffs. I adore big dogs, but have had dogs as small as a boston terrier. My family currently has a husky-poodle mix. I have been a volunteer at the humane society for the past year, where my job has been to walk dogs. I am a college student, so sadly I am away from my dog back home. Before I came to the U, I would walk my dog at least once a day, feed him, brush him, and spend lots of time playing around with him in the house I am a student currently, so having a dog at my house with my roommates is too tricky right now. From my experience with living with dogs before college, I understand how each dog is allowed different things in each household, but the key thing being a dog needs to be comfortable and feel safe wherever they are.

About: Animals have always been a part of my family, and I have cared for dogs of every size and personality—from tiny puppies to Great Danes, Greyhounds, Pitbulls, and mixed breeds. I regularly help friends and neighbors with their pups as well, giving me hands‑on experience with all ages, temperaments, and energy levels. Along with dogs, I’ve also owned and cared for various reptiles and fish, including helping friends with their lizards and aquariums. I’m fully comfortable handling both big and small dogs, and I bring a lifetime of genuine animal‑care experience to every pet I look after. I’m currently a student at the University of Utah, and my class schedule runs from 12–3 p.m. on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Outside of that window, I have plenty of free time and flexibility to give your pup attention, playtime, and care throughout the day.
About: What sets me apart is my ability to balance high-energy adventure with attentive comfort within your pet’s own home. As an active outdoor enthusiast, I provide a variety of outings tailored to your dog, ranging from neighborhood excursions to vigorous trail runs right from your front door. Beyond these activities, I am a committed companion for animals who require a gentler pace. I have extensive experience managing the unique health needs of senior animals and truly enjoy spending quality time with cats in their own home. By offering professional, one-on-one care where your pets feel most secure, I ensure they remain happy and engaged while you are away. Pet care is currently my primary focus as I am taking a career break and working only part-time. This transition allows me to offer a high level of flexibility and dedicated time to your animals. Because I own an adventure RV, I am uniquely equipped to provide extended in-home care. This mobile setup allows me to stay nearby or easily relocate to your home, ensuring I am available for frequent walks, trail runs, or quality companionship throughout the day and night. My schedule is designed to revolve around the needs and routines of your pets, providing them with consistent and reliable care. I prioritize the safety and security of your home and your pets through a disciplined and attentive approach. When providing in-home care, I maintain a clean and organized environment, ensuring all doors and gates remain securely locked at all times. For dogs, I conduct a thorough assessment of their harness and leash before any outing to ensure a secure fit for neighborhood walks or trail runs. During outdoor adventures, I stay highly alert to our surroundings and always keep pets on a lead unless we are in a securely fenced area. For senior animals and cats, I monitor their comfort levels and health closely, strictly following all provided care instructions and medication schedules. My goal is to maintain the integrity of your home while ensuring your pets remain safe and content in their familiar surroundings.
“Faith was so awesome! Nash seemed like he had a fantastic time on his walks. Faith is extremely responsive and we appreciated her flexibility as well. I would definitely recommend Faith to take care of all your pets care needs!!”

About: Hi! I’m so excited to hang out with your pets. I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and have spent the last three years pet sitting all over Park City—everything from cuddly house pups to full “small farm” situations. If it has fur, four legs, and a personality, I’ve probably taken care of it. I’m great with puppies, seniors, high-energy dogs, mellow dogs, and the “I’ll come to you when I feel like it” types. Need extra exercise? Special diets? Meds? A walk schedule that looks like a marathon training plan? I’ve got you. Multiple animals in the home? Totally fine. Horses and barn chores? Been there. I’m the sitter who will absolutely let your dog snuggle in my bed, steal my pillow, and look at me like I should be grateful. And honestly? I am. People describe me as patient, calm, and reliable, which I think is code for “your pets will think I’m their new auntie.” I love building routines that make animals feel safe, and I’m always the one sending way too many photo updates just to make you smile. I’m active enough to tire out the zoomiest of dogs, but chill enough to hang with the couch potatoes. Most importantly, I genuinely love making life easier for you and your pets. They’ll be loved, spoiled (within reason), kept safe, and treated like the little weirdos we all adore. I have a flexible job where sometimes I work from home or I’m with my client who has Autism and we socialize in the community, so we’re out and about. This is perfect for middle of the day check-ins, walks, and time outside the house/kennel. I don’t have a home where I can care for pets at home, but I do live next to a large park and great hiking trails to let your pups have a wonderful adventure!
About: My name is Erica, I am currently a graduate student at the University of Utah. I have had dogs since I was seven years old; all the dogs I’ve owned have been 80+ pounds. I’ve raised a dog since puppy hood with my family as well as adopted and taken care of two rescue dogs. I understand that when taking care of dogs it is important to cater to any dogs special needs and have patience’s! Although I am in school full time I have a pretty flexible class schedule and can be available on weekends and weekdays. My top priority with dog sitting is making sure the dog is well taken care of and happy, as a dog should always be. I am currently in school full time but I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. Generally I will be available to drop in or take dogs on walks most weekday hours and can do weekends as needed! I live in an apartment so I prefer to take care of animals in their homes. I am comfortable with home visits and am open to taking dogs on walks to local parks as long as it is okay with the owners
“Anna was amazing. I contacted her last minute after another sitter ghosted me. She responded quickly and did a great job with my dog. I will definitely utilize her services again in the future.”

About: I have loved animals all my life! From living in a household of cats, to taking care of family and friends dogs from days to weeks on end, I’ve always loved to be around pets. I’ve lived with either cats, dogs, or both consistently for 15+ years. Can’t wait to take great care of your pets and make some new furry friends! I have a wide range of availability! My work is a hybrid schedule, so there is flexibility with times. I can take care of pets during both weekdays and weekends, so let me know when you need some help. I will follow your instructions to a T. If you are particular about certain aspects of your pet care, I will absolutely take that into great consideration and follow accordingly! I want to ensure you and your pet are as comfortable as possible, so whatever that may be, please let me know.
About: I've grown up around animals including a lizard, endless fish (RIP), dogs, a hamster, and many, many cats. I'm a true animal lover to the core. When I care for your pup, massive amounts of love, cuddles, and kisses (if that's what your doggo likes, which I hope they do), an occasional treat, and I make time for entertainment such as fetch or hide and seek (yes, that's a thing). Since I work from home, I have lots of time to dedicate to your dog, and I'll most likely fall in love with them upon our first meeting. I've worked with shy dogs before, small and big dogs, high-energy dogs, and I am not afraid to try new things. I can assure you that your animal will be in the best hands when you entrust me with your pet! And hopefully, I'll become your animal's second best friend (you'll be their first, of course). I'm currently working from home full time, so I have plenty of time to give to your pup. I'll have an occasional event at night or meetings on the weekend, but I always make sure that your animal is a priority, has what it needs, and won't be pent up for hours on end. I live in a large house with my parents (who also LOVE animals), and we have a spacious fenced backyard. I live in a very walkable neighborhood with a few parks, lots of paths, and other friendly dogs. A great space to get your animal's energy out!

Marissa is great with our dog! Our dog is always so excited to see her. She took our dog out when it was snowing and made sure he still got his exercise despite the weather. She always communicates how the walk goes. Our dog is vocal around other dogs and she handles it great with distractions.

Jaden saved me when I got stuck at work one night unexpectedly - he rushed over to my house after only speaking to me (more so I was frantically speaking AT him) for a minute or two and checked on my dogs right away after they’d been stuck inside for hours. I feel so lucky to have found him and will definitely be calling him again…probably more often than he would like!
