Professional Dog Trainer & Sitter!

Pet care experience

I run a pet sitting, dog walking and dog training business and love it! I know how stressful it is to board your dogs while you're away. I also know how much our dogs mean to us, so I will take the very best care of your fur kids while you are away and give them the attention and care they deserve! About this sitter: Heya! I'm Cayla. I have 3 dogs of my own and live in South Salt Lake. My dogs and I are a pretty active crew. We love hiking, going for walks, going to the dog park, snowshoeing and generally being outdoors. Why I love dog sitting I worked in rescue for years then moved into the training field. I currently foster dogs with a local rescue and am one of their trainers as well. I started my own dog training, pet sitting and dog walking business in 2014 and love it! Meet my pets I have 3 dogs of my own, all of which are well socialized and mellow. About my yard I have a 6 foot fully fenced in backyard. I remodeled it a couple of years ago to be fully 'dog proof'. I added bricks under the wood fence to stop a digging dog from escaping, just in case. There is a 10 foot shaded dog run with a doggy cot that the dogs have access to if they would like to 'veg out' on that but there are also multiple dog cots and other spots to lay around in the yard as well. They have a doggy door and access to the house at all times as well as water in case they get too hot and want to come inside and lay on the gazillion dog beds that are available inside as well. My experience administering medication I've administered medications as well as diabetic insulin shots.

Cayla has been our pet sitter for the past few years and we wouldn't go to anyone else. Our dogs, Jack and Abby, absolutely adore her. She takes them on fun adventures to the park and I love all of the pictures and updates that she sends me while I'm away! I love coming home knowing that my dogs are happy and have been taken care of by someone that cares about them. Thank you!!

Cayla has watched both my dogs for me- and they had a blast. I am always nervous leaving them with anyone but she treated them like family- they didnt even want to go home! She is so great with dogs, and I wouldn't hesitate to ever bring them to her again!

Information Cayla R. would like to know about your pet

Any anxiety issues that need to be handled, allergies, medications, aggression issues, etc. I'm extremely comfortable handling dogs that are a little 'skittish' or nervous.

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks It depends on the time of year as to where we will go. There are a lot of parks within walking distance from my house. In winter, I like to take the more active dogs snowshoeing with me. Your dog's sleeping arrangement That depends on what you are comfortable with. Your dog will be treated as one of the pack! My dogs have free reign. But usually choose to sleep in my room on the dogs beds they have in there. But, if you kennel your dog at night, I have multiple crates available of all sizes (or bring your own, either way is fine!). I have lots of dog beds and blankets! Time I'll spend with your dog Everybody has a daily routine and schedule. Our pets, whether you realize it or not, have gotten used to our schedules. Even though their parents might be on vacation, it's a lot less stressful for your pets if their daily routines aren't disturbed as much. Therefore, my schedule is fairly flexible to match your dogs needs. We can talk about any specific needs your dog might have when you make a reservation.
