Pet care experience

Reliable, Attentive Pet Caregiver

Looking for someone dependable to give your dog a great walk while you're busy? I offer attentive, one-on-one dog walking in the Sandy/Salt Lake City area, a couple of days a week, so I can give every dog my full focus rather than rushing through a big roster. I treat every walk like it's my own, plenty of time to sniff, explore, and burn energy, plus a quick update with photos after each walk so you know exactly how it went. Whether your dog needs a calm stroll around the block or a more active outing, I'll match the pace to what they need. I'm reliable, punctual, and easy to communicate with, if plans change, you'll hear from me right away. New to the platform but not new to caring for animals attentively and consistently. I have a flexible schedule and can be available mornings and evenings 7 days a week in the sandy/holladay/Millcreek areas

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

Your pet's safety is my top priority. I always confirm gate/door locks before and after every visit, keep dogs securely leashed at all times during walks, and never leave pets unsupervised around hazards like open doors, stairs, or unfamiliar animals. For cats, I double-check that windows and doors stay closed during visits so there's no chance of an escape. I pay close attention to each pet's individual behavior and stress signals, and I'll reach out immediately if anything seems off, whether that's a change in appetite, energy, or mood. In an emergency, I'll contact you right away and follow whatever instructions you've left for vet care. I also keep a close eye on the details that matter: correct food portions, medication schedules if applicable, and any specific routines you've shared with me, So your pets day stays as normal as possible in your absence
