“Madison is super friendly and sweet! She did a great job picking up Summer and taking her to the beach while I was injured and couldn’t. We requested her last minute and she was super happy to help! 100% recommend!”
“Kennedy is awesome and our dog Marley loves her! We just started using her and will definitely be regulars! It’s so nice knowing our pup gets a break during the day while we are at work.”
About: I've been caring for dogs for 7 years and have two of my own: Kenai (10) and Juniper (6). I love all fur babies, even (especially) the reactive ones. I'm currently working from home and have lots of flexible time around my hours! I'm also available on weekends if you're finally taking that long-awaited weekend trip and can't bring your pup. I play with your pup just like I do with mine! We play tug-o-war, scavenger hunts, simple command practice, and sometimes we even break out the snuffle mat!
“My dog Henry LOVES Joseph. Joseph is caring, kind, and patient with my dog. It gives me such peace of mind to know Henry is in great hands with Joseph.”
“We hired Tyson as a dog walker and have been so impressed. We learned he's currently in training to become a certified dog trainer, and his professional demeanor and knowledgeable approach reflect that. He consistently worked with Crimson on their leash manners and a proper 'heel,' and his clear communication and patient handling skills have made a significant difference. It's clear that Tyson is building a strong foundation of skills, and we appreciate that he brings that expertise to every walk.”
“Emily walks our dogs every week! The girls are absolutely obsessed with her and are so grateful to get out in the middle of the work day. Emily is a great communicator and takes very good care of the pups. ◡̈ thank you!!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and ages, from energetic puppies to gentle seniors. I’m also great with cats! Compassionate, dependable, and always on time. Right now, my schedule is fully open, which means I can be flexible and available whenever needed. Pet care easily fits into my daily routine! I always treat each home and pet with the utmost respect and care. I follow routines closely, ensure clean, safe environments, and prioritize trust and comfort.
“Adam walked our three dogs and he was very confident with their needs and personalities. He was a great communicator and our boys enjoyed their walk with him. We will definitely use Adam again.”
“We have been booking Emily sense May 2024, she is an excellent walker, reliable, trustworthy and great with communication. Our two dogs love her and she seems to really enjoy them! Emily sends lots of photos and communicates the experience each walk. Emily is very accommodating, we’re really grateful to have you!”
“Michelle is great! Vinny loves his weekly walks. Going to back to work knowing my dog will be checked on and all his needs taken care of is a great relief.”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals my whole life including my two Australian shepherds and goats. I love walking, hiking and bringing your dogs to the dog park! I’m working part time so I’m very flexible with walking and care schedules. Located by Westminster. I love rock climbing hiking and anything that involves animals and outdoors. I’m available to drop by your house multiple times a day as needed to take care of, play and feed your animals. My car is equipped to transport your dogs to parks and trails.
“Fantastic with a very energetic dog and wild Utah weather. Very patient with the pup as his stomach and taste for random things on the ground change.”
“Sylvia took exceptional care of Sherlock. She was very interested in how she could best meet his needs and, when I returned, gave me very good feedback on some items I had been working on with him (he pulls when on leash). Sherlock bonded with her very easily and I could tell he had had a wonderful time. I will call Sylvia again in the future!”
“Celine was great from the first visit. She let me know of a concern for my little dog and the dewclaw that was bothering her. She let the dog go at her own pace and my dog was happy when I got home. And we trimmed the nails the next day!”
About: Hi! I'm Nate—a lifelong animal lover, dedicated pet sitter, and hobbyist dog trainer with 25 years of hands-on pet care experience. At 27, I’ve spent nearly my entire life surrounded by animals, from growing up with dogs, cats, birds, and even reptiles to helping friends and family with training and daily care. I’m currently a full-time student entering my final semester, which means I have a flexible schedule and spend lots of time studying quietly at home—perfect for pets who need company, cuddles, or supervision. I'm calm, patient, and excellent with animals of all ages and temperaments, including senior dogs, anxious pups, and high-energy breeds. What I Offer: 🏠 Overnight House Sitting in Salt Lake City 🐾 Dog Walking, Feeding, Medication (if needed) 🛏️ Overnight Care with Full Home Presence 💬 Daily Updates & Photos 🎓 Dog Training Reinforcement (if requested, however I am not a professional nor accredited) Why You’ll Love Working With Me: 25 years of experience = deep intuition & care I treat every pet like family I respect your home and follow your routines Safety and trust are my top priorities I specialize in reading animal behavior and adapting to their needs Whether your dog is a snuggler, a ball-chaser, a couch potato, or a nervous rescue, I will meet them where they are—and make sure they feel loved, safe, and secure while you're away. Let’s set up a free Meet & Greet—I’d love to get to know you and your pup! As a full-time student in my final semester, I have a flexible and consistent schedule that allows me to dedicate quality time to pet care. Most of my classes are either online or on intermittent days in the mornings, which means I’m available for mid-day walks, evening routines, and overnight stays. I always study from home, so I’m able to keep pets company throughout the day and maintain their routines with minimal disruption. Whether it’s early morning potty breaks/walks, afternoon playtime, or cozy evenings together, pet care is something I prioritize and truly enjoy fitting into my daily life. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on creating a calm, consistent, and loving environment that mirrors their regular routine. I follow all instructions closely—feeding schedules, walk times, medication, crate routines, and house rules—to ensure your pet feels safe and secure in your absence. I take time to build trust with each animal, giving them the attention, affection, and structure they need to stay happy and relaxed. I also respect your home as if it were my own—keeping things tidy, secure, and well cared for throughout my stay. I provide regular updates and photos, so you can travel with peace of mind knowing your pet and home are in responsible hands.

Nathaniel C.
“Nate has been an absolutely wonderful caregiver to my pets for over 15 years. When he was a child I would have him come over and care for our two St. Bernards as well as our snake while we traveled for work. He truly loves animals, particularly dogs, and has always had an affinity for them. Even though he has moved away to Salt Lake City, we still ask him to come down and watch our little Corgi because we do not trust anyone else to treat our animals the way we want them to be treated. He always meets our expectations and follows instructions excellently. He also cleaned our bathrooms without us asking!”

If you’re nervous about leaving your shy or anxious dog with someone, look no further—Etiana is the perfect choice. My little Winnie is very sweet but not always quick to warm up to strangers. Etiana has been incredibly patient, kind, and gentle with her from the beginning. After just a few visits, Winnie has not only warmed up to her but actually looks forward to seeing her! I feel so grateful knowing my pup is in such caring and capable hands.
Olivia is a great! She has helped us with watching dogs while we are out of town and taking them for walks when our schedule gets a little too busy. She is reliable, and easy to communicate with. She is a runner so when she takes my dogs for a walk I know they are getting good exercise! I would recommend Olivia for anyone looking for someone trustworthy to watch their pups!
