Dog Walking Silver Summit

About: My name is Kara, I am a fourth year Economics student at UVA. My family has had pets since I was really young so I have always loved caring for animals. I have experience pet sitting and walking dogs from my friends and family for the past few years but have always been familiar with general practice caring for animals. I’ve looked after both small and very large dogs so I’m comfortable working with either, I don’t have as much experience with cats but have looked after them in the past and would be happy to do so again if needed. I am available for walks, short visits, and open to other opportunities as they arise. Please let me know if you have any questions!

“Susan is definitely a dog person. She was lovely with our dogs and patient with the one that is skiddish. She is patient, reliable, and a pleasure. Cant recommend her enough. We will definitely use her again.”

“Pat is the man! I screwed up and left a poorly cut spare key that did not work and Pat kept me informed and did everything in his power to get my pup out. I really appreciate his effort and timeliness and will definitely be booking him again the next time I need a Rover. 12/10 communication and effort.”

“James did the best he could since Abner can be difficult for someone new to get leased up. Abner won’t let just anyone to lease him up! I’m hoping to have James come by once a week to walk him.”

About: I’ve spent years training and living with dogs, including strong-willed and independent breeds such as Huskies and Rhodesian Ridgebacks. Those experiences have taught me that there isn’t one training method or approach that works for every animal. What works for one dog may completely miss the mark with another. What I’ve learned is that the key is understanding the individual anima, it’s personality, communication style, energy level, boundaries, and what makes it feel confident and secure. My goal isn’t to change an animal into something it isn’t, but to find the approach that allows it to thrive within its own environment and alongside its family’s routines. I think that perspective is what makes me different as a sitter. I’m observant, patient, and comfortable adapting to each pet rather than expecting every pet to adapt to me. I also understand that caring for a home is part of caring for the animals who live there. I respect their routines, their space, and their home, and I take pride in leaving things clean, secure, and well cared for. Ultimately, I want owners to feel confident that while they’re away, their pets are not simply being watched, they’re being genuinely understood and cared for. After relocating to Utah, I’m currently working part time, which gives me a flexible schedule and the opportunity to spend more time doing something I truly enjoy, being around animals. I’ve always loved having animals as part of my daily life, and I’ve realized how much I miss that connection. Pet sitting feels like a wonderful way to bring that back while also helping other people feel confident that their pets are happy, comfortable, and well cared for while they’re away. I genuinely enjoy being there for animals, whether that means a long walk, some playtime, extra cuddles, or simply keeping them company. I love helping others with their pets because I know how important they are to their families, and I treat that responsibility with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’m naturally respectful, tidy, and attentive, and I understand that house sitting is about more than simply being there. I’ll treat your home with care, keep things clean and secure, and make sure it continues to feel lived in and well looked after. Combined with my experience caring for animals, I’m able to give both your pets and your home the attention they deserve while you’re away.

“Grace is extraordinary! She went above and beyond to connect with and walk our anxious dog Wally. Her persistence, kindness, and calm energy are incredible. Communication was excellent. Highly recommend.”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and have had my own dogs for 12+ years, so I’m very comfortable with all of the everyday realities of taking care of dogs. I love getting outside and going for walks, and I’m happy to match the pace and energy level of each dog. I’m also comfortable with senior dogs and giving them the extra patience and attention they may need. I’ll treat your dog like one of my own and make sure they’re happy, safe, and well cared for. My schedule is pretty flexible, so I’m able to accommodate walks at different times throughout the day. I’m happy to work with your dog’s usual schedule and make sure they get the exercise and attention they need. When I’m caring for a dog in their home, I try to keep things as close to their normal routine as possible. I’ll follow your instructions for walks, feeding, treats, and anything else your dog needs, and I’m happy to give them some extra attention and playtime along the way. I’ll also make sure they’re comfortable and that everything is tidy and secure before I leave.

“Great communication, punctual, and immediately liked by our dog. We will be booking Izzy in the future.”

“Very communicative and great to work with!”

About: I’ve cared for many different dogs and pets of my own and for others for a day or up to a month. I have an amazing Alaskan Husky named Bingo. As the owner of a high energy dog I spend a lot of time doing outdoor activities. This is made easy by my work from home schedule I beleive in positive reinforcement training and will work with the pet owner to create a custom pet care plan for their fur baby. I have a crate for transportation as well as an assortment of leashes and harnesses

About: I've been taking care of dogs regularly for about 4-5 years. My family likes to joke that our house is like a hostel for both pets and people (most of our guests are reoccurring). Many different breeds and ages have happily boarded at our house. We will be able to accommodate any specific requests as we understand each pet owner has their own preferences on care. I am currently working part-time at a restaurant and have taken the days off that I won't be available. I will be able to fully fulfill any requirements and bookings. I plan to make your pet a priority. If something happens to come up I will make sure to let any client know in advanced to not inconvenience anyone. I have a large fenced in yard and a beautiful bernedoodle named Stella to help keep any pet company. Cuddles and couch-time are a very big thing in my family so no pet will go without lots of love and attention everyday. We also prioritize positive reinforcement and treat giving to ensure happy and obedient dogs. There are multiple dogs parks near the area that I love to take guests to. One is a free roaming fenced in dog park and the other is a fun pond where dogs and swim and play. I always prioritize pet needs and make sure the animal is content at all times. If any if these ideals do not align with your pet care please let me know and I can make the proper adjustments for your pet.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and genuinely love caring for them. I grew up with Golden Retrievers and Labs, currently have a large German Shepherd hound mix, and previously cared for three cats, so I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and personalities. I’ve handled leash reactive dogs, overly excited puppies, nervous cats and dogs, dogs who pull or prefer not to socialize on their walks, and everything in between. I know every pet is different, and I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and quirks so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether your dog is energetic and loves long walks or prefers a slower pace, I’ll care for them with the same patience, attention, and affection I give my own pets. My goal is to make your pet feel at home and give you peace of mind knowing they’re in kind, reliable hands. I’m a stay at home mom and work part time as an RN. My kids are in prek twice a week so I’m available during the week on Tuesday and Thursday from 9am-3pm and am available on the weekends. When caring for pets in my clients’ homes, I focus on keeping their routine as familiar and comfortable as possible. I know pets feel most secure in their own environment, so I take the time to follow their normal schedule for meals, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and attention. I treat every home and pet with respect, keeping spaces clean and providing plenty of love, patience, and companionship. I’ll send updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is happy, safe, and cared for while you’re away.

“Allison is wonderful. She is great with our dog Charlie! Very reliable and very trustworthy!”

About: I will hike, mountain bike, trail run, paddle board or just walk with your dog to let them let loose of all their energy. Whatever your dog needs, I got it! My schedule is completely free! Currently in Physical Therapy school, but I have online classes the rest of summer! Whenever you need dog care, it works for me! I treat your pets/home as my own. I leave places better than what I found them. I currently cannot take your pets in my home due to living in an apartment.

About: I have grown up with big and small dogs and have always loved them. I make sure to be very attentive to any dog I am with, bringing them on lots of walks, and hanging with them. I am an online student with a flexible schedule. This allows me to be very attentive to your dog, lots of walks, lots of hanging nearby. I take great care of pets. I make sure they get the exercise they need, and the time spent just hanging out close by. I think most dogs love to be around people as much as they can, and I make that happen!

“Brandon is incredibly patient … two labs in desperate need to spend some pent up energy is a whole lotta lab excitement. I believe they are FINALLY worn out. You can tell a good dog person and Brandon for sure is”

About: Grew up with at least 3 dogs at all times. Various breeds size. Have always been responsible for training, grooming, over nights while parents were away. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs throughout the week. I’m available for daytime care, drop-ins, walks, evenings, and weekends, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s normal routine whenever possible. I know consistency is important for pets, so I’m also comfortable following specific feeding, walking, potty, and medication schedules. I treat every pet like they’re part of the family and always want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual routine, personality, and needs and will follow any instructions you provide closely. I’m also happy to send regular photos and updates so you can feel completely comfortable while you’re away.

About: I have trained several puppies from a very young age, and personally have raised corgi breeds for 15 years. Dogs are truly man's bestfriend, and I am so grateful to spend every day with mine. I am a passionate animal lover (especially doggos!) and love the outdoors, mountains and adventures. I take my pup with me everywhere for hiking, skiing, fishing, swimming and even backpacking adventures. I'm ready to spend time taking care of your cute pups in the mountains! I am currently a pharmacist in Park City working only a few days a week, so I have plenty of time to spend with your adorable doggos! I will treat your home and pups as if they were my own, making sure to obey your leash, care and property requirements. I have thoroughly trained my pup to be on and off leash, and currently live in Tollgate Canyon on 1 acre. We can do walks in my beautiful neighborhood, go for a hike at the ski resort, head to a dog park or even cruise around at a lake! I can also do drop ins to keep your pup company, or even house sit if planned in advance.

“Makensie was awesome! Very responsive and made scheduling super easy. Took my guy on an awesome walk. Would absolutely hire her again!”
