“Couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver for our fur babies. Great communication and thoughtfulness and was very respectful of our home. Kerry was very patient with our very cautious English mastiff. Will definitely be asking Kerry to come again.”
“Aubrey did a fantastic job with my critters. She sent several photo updates each day. Upon our return the house was clean and the animals were all happy and healthy. Aubrey was easy to work with and adaptable when we had a change of plans and needed to come home earlier then originally planned.”
“The dogs are weary of strangers but really warmed up to Traylor and Jason during their stay to watch them. They provided daily updates to me and let me know of any issues.”
“Abigail did a Great job watching our dogs! Daily updates, pictures, daily feedings, potty breaks, playtime & vitamins given and medication to one nightly. We got home and house looked great, full water bowl, dogs secured in their area and house locked up tight. Great to know we can have peace of mind while traveling, knowing they’re in great capable hands.”
“Another great trip for us while Buddy had a relaxing stay-cation with Megan. Megan offered to come over for another overview, which was quite helpful, as quite a few things had changed since her last stay. Megan just makes our trips super easy since we know Buddy is getting the interaction and affection that he needs to thrive. And we love the videos and pictures she sends.”

About: I have grown up around cats, dogs, goats, chickens, and llamas. I have been animal sitting since I was 15 for all sorts of animals. I am a college student a Weber State trying to save up for a school trip to Italy! Through the end of April, all of May, and the beginning of June I will have all day free until 4:30 and most nights after 8:30. I am able to travel to your house and give your pet company throughout the day. I can take them on walks, crate them if needed, or just spend time with them.
“Bailey was the sweetest thing and we were very grateful she could accommodate us through the weekend. She was very responsive every time we reached out via text and we appreciate her meeting us in advance to introduce the pups to her.”
“Alyvia was great! She was super flexible with our last minute vacation plans changing and was great at sending updates and was a great little buddy for my dog while we were out of town.”
“Christine always takes great and conscientious care of our cats and home! She can handle any situation including some zany ones at our house 😂”
About: I've spent years taking care of my own pets and friends/families dogs. I have always had a good bond with dogs and I enjoy spending time with any and all dogs. I have three of my own that are very happy little family members. To me they're more than pets, they're family. I am currently in the process of selling a house so I have no issues with any scheduling. I can provide care any time, any day. Plenty of free time to spend providing care and entertainment for our little friends. I have three of my own dogs that are well maintained and taken care of at home. We enjoy walks, toys, and attention. As of now I don't have the space to house sit myself, but I am attentive to whatever needs required for pets to feel welcome and comfortable at home while you're out. We have scheduled breakfasts and dinners, a good routine and rules.
“Our dogs were walked daily and exercised regularly with the ball in our backyard. They also received their joint pain prevention meds. Our rug and one of our dog beds was slightly eaten by one of our pups but that was not the fault of Callie, as we know our dogs have anxiety about us leaving and can act out at times. It was cheaper than a boarder would have been and I’m positive it was less stressful for our dogs as well. We are so glad Callie was able to provide the care and attention they are used to by being home with them most the day. We plan on using Callie again when we need to leave our pups at home!”
“My doggie is a happy doggie! She welcomed him and loved him from the first moment she saw him! Even when saying goodbye at the door. She took pictures and sent them to me which was so sweet! My doggie was in good expert loving hands. No worries!”
“I can’t say enough! She is awesome! Took amazing care of my puppies. House looked great! My puppies desperately need to be groomed, but I had to cancel their appointment. If I’m honest, I’m horrible at brushing them. She took the time to brush both of them out and they looked 10 times better when I got back. Will definitely use again!”
“Elizabeth and her fiancé JD did a wonderful job with our boy Oggie. They sent some great pics and it was easy to see that he was relaxed and enjoying his time with his new friends. We highly recommend!”
