“Avery is the best! She has taken great care of our dogs and is super quick with communication. She also sends pictures on every check in which I love 🫶🏻”
“Zenia was just the perfect fit to tend to our dogs and kitty. She house sat for us also. Our babies loved her so much! She kept everything so tidy and made them happy! When we arrived back home from vacation the pets were so happy! We loved meeting her and having her in our home! We will book with Zenia again when we go out of town next. Thank you for loving our animals!!”
“Absolutely love Samantha. She was so helpful and made my time away from the pups easy. She was very responsive and kept me updated on my puppies. Will definitely be using her again!”
“Makayla was wonderful. We made a last minute trip and she was available with very short notice, and was so flexible throughout our trip when flights were canceled and/or delayed. Right away we could tell that all of our dogs loved her, and we were right! She was so kind, and patient, with our crazy pups and so thorough about their needs. We will definitely be having Makayla as our forever sitter!”
“Holly is absolutely amazing! She took such good care of our sweet pup! It was so nice to be able to leave and have a great time and not worry about him. She sent lots of pictures and kept us updated every day on the fun things they were doing. And I’m pretty sure the house was cleaner when we came home than when we left!!! Love Holly and will definitely be using her again!!!”
“Morgan was awesome! She stayed in our home for a weekend with our girl Ruby. She was responsive and clean. We will definitely be asking her to stay with our dog again!”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was 14. From my neighbors cats, to dogs to giving guinea pigs a bath at the animal shelter. I love animals and even took horseback riding lessons. I helped at the cache humane society animal shelter for a year as a volunteer! I was entrusted to wash dogs and cats, take them on walks and play with them. At the moment I work mornings and afternoons but depending on my shift I’m free either in the morning or afternoon so message me! I’m super flexible! I will make sure they are on leashes during walks, if they are in the yard (my yard is fenced) it will be fenced and a closed gate at all times (I know how sneaky dogs can be) I will play with them and run around in the yard with your dog! I will make sure they are well fed and have enough water. I won’t feed them anything they’re not supposed to have and make sure they go in their kennel when it’s time. I’ll be your doggie’s best buddy!

“Megan was wonderful to our pup, Ralph. She spoiled him with long walks and sent us photo updates to check in. She stayed at our house and left it nice and clean when we got home. We will definitely ask her to watch our buddy again and feel lucky to have found her!”
“Averi helped me to take care my dearest boy so well at my place when I needed to visit my family in Hong Kong. My hearr was happy to see pictures of my boy being so restful by her. I can't imagine without her help! ❤❤❤👍👍👍”
“Dana was a fantastic pet sitter! She was very communicative, sent us lots of updates, and took great care of our cat! Would highly recommend her for your pets, and would be happy to have her watch our cat again!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and I am an animal lover all around! In high school I completed a veterinary science program pathway which gave me a certification in being a veterinarian assistant. In that class as well as my own experience growing up with my pets, I’ve learned animal restraints and how to read animal behavior. I am pretty flexible! I currently am a full time student at Utah State University getting my degree in biology (with becoming a veterinarian being my career goal). MWF I am available at 12pm and Sundays I am pretty much available all day! I’m someone who loves dogs and takes safety seriously. I’m all about making sure your pup has fun and stays safe every step of the way. You can trust me to treat them like my own!
“We needed house-sitter pretty last minute for our two dogs. It's always a bit nerve wracking having someone stay at your house for the first time, but Sabrina was great! The dogs seemed very comfortable with her, and she did a great job taking care of them and the house. We got photo updates and she made sure the dogs got plenty of play time.”
About: I have taken care of my dog since we got him 9 years ago. I was able to train him how to sit and shake hands. I have also helped take care of my grandma's dog along with many of my neighbor's dogs. I have a deep love for any and all dogs. I am currently going to college and I am looking for something small to help occupy my free time. I have some free time between classes and a little extra money would help a lot with all the college fees. I am currently staying in an apartment that only allows dogs if you pay extra a month and as of right now that isn’t possible. But if I were to stay at a client's home I would establish the rules of the house and make sure that I know what is allowed. I would watch the behavior of the dog and make sure it's doing good.
About: I have 2 dogs in the family, one of which has a disability. I’m no stranger to teaching a puppy new tricks, as well as training them on and off the leash. I love taking my dogs on hikes and caring for friends and family dogs too. I work around 30-40 hours per week and shifts are not set consistently. I still have a majority of my day available however and can work you and your pets needs into my schedule. I have a fenced yard and 2 dogs who love to make new friends. I have plenty of dog toys and leashes so your puppy will never be bored. I can maintain a routine you have for your puppy and stay attentive to their needs so they feel happy and secure.
About: I've had dogs most of my life. I have experience with senior dogs & I volunteer at my local Humane Society. They hold such a special place in our hearts, it's the least I can do to make sure they are happy & safe. I am available most days during the week & weekends. I can do early mornings, late nights, & everything in-between. I am used to juggling life & pets. I love to play with them, let them out to go to the bathroom & crate them back up (if needed). Make sure they have food, water, & is comfortable.
