Easy Going care for your animals :)
Pet care experience
Since I was 10 I’ve taken care of the pets in my family. Bunnies, dogs, cats, fish, gerbils and mice. I’ve given baths, taken dogs on runs, cuddled with kittens, played with bunnies. I’ve had to give medication to animals before. I’m quite active (trail runner) and really open to anything. I work from home so my schedule is flexible.
Reviews
Reid was great! he helped my dog, Hercules, relax by providing long walks. every picture he sent my, he looked happy as can be!
Our boy Cashew is still in the thicket of big-dog adolescence, and at 70lbs it can feel like steadying a runaway train, but Reid has been beyond wonderful with Cashew since the start! Reid is compassionate with our boy without letting him get away with unsafe behaviors, and now that I’m working 12hr days, I can trust that my boy will be exercised, exhausted, and excited to sleep until I’m back home. Choosing someone to bring into your home, while you’re not there, to temporarily *take your dog* is an undeniably stressful decision. Reid has made that process effortless, putting my entire family at ease, and I cannot recommend his services enough!
Reid was fantastic throughout the stay - he communicated a lot which was great. He did an awesome job and Bany our frenchie seemed to really like him and was in great spirits when we got home from our trip. Highly recommend Reid and will be customers of his again next time we're out of town.
Reid took amazing care of Aiko tending to her every need and introducing her to new and fun situations and activities. She’s the same happy girl I left only with more confidence and I’m so grateful for the time and love he gave her. He also housesat for me in Seeley Lake, over an hour away from his home. I know that was a huge ask and Reid actually thanked me for letting him stay here! In a nutshell, Reid is a great guy who took excellent care of both my home and my best buddy and I couldn’t recommend him more highly!

I live in an apartment in downtown SLC with my girlfriend - we both love animals so you won’t just my attention and care but also hers. She works 12 hour shifts at the hospital but has 4 days off a week and I’m home most days doing remote video editing work. This gives me tons of time to focus on your pet. I grew up with animals and - it’s impossible to explain - but life is better with them around. I also play a ton of soccer and run often so giving your dogs exercise is second nature for me - especially if they like to run.
Home
Information Reid G. would like to know about your pet
I’m not very picky but basic food needs, general water intake, how they interact with dogs, how they interact with humans, how they do on walks, can they go on runs, how much exercise do they get daily, etc. Basically, any specifics you’d want me to know to make sure I can take the best care of your dog.
A typical day
As stated before, I run lots! And go on walks often by myself, either to grab a coffee or just go get off the laptop screen (where I video edit) and go around listening to an audiobook. I like to take dogs on runs because I already run and most seem to enjoy it. Walks and playing fetch are great for both your dog, and for me. A walk always makes my day a little better.
