“Sadie is so happy and relaxed. You took perfect care of her. She is as relaxed as I’ve ever seen her.🐶🐾♥️ The home was amazing you vacuumed everywhere and did the laundry and cleaned up. It’s definitely much cleaner than I left it. Also shoveled the snow from all driveways and walkways. I think you really went above and beyond expectation clearing off all the snow. ❄️ Thanks!”
“Sent me lots of updates and pictures!! Took my dog out frequently and played with him. Very flexible and easy to work with! Came home to a clean house and happy puppy.”
“This is the second time Alexa and Jayson have watched my little senior man. They send consistent daily check-ins with photos and we always come back to relaxed animals!”
About: I am a reliable, trustworthy and knowledgeable adult that has taken care of many animals over the years. I am a retired Vet tech assistant. I am very knowledgeable in special needs animals; blind, diabetic and fearful traits. I can administer medications and give injections if necessary. I’ve been pet sitting for clients from the vet clinic for the past 20 years. Hi, will always go out of my way to make sure that an animal is comfortable and feels loved. When I had my three dogs, I loved them as much as my children. I always say dogs are my people. I currently just moved to Utah and would like to start a new client base here. I am available most days unless I have a scheduled event. If I am staying at someone’s home, I make sure that I am with the animal (s) for most of the day. If I have to leave, it will be for short amounts of time, but I prefer to be in the home, especially if the animals are used to having their parent home with them. I love to spend time outside with the dogs. Exercise is extremely important. I will always treat your pet as if it were my own.
“Jami is awesome! She was patient and kind to my two anxious pups. They warmed up to her quickly. She took good care of my house while we were away. Will definitely use her for future needs!”
About: My husband and I are a pet-loving team offering double the care, attention, and flexibility. I grew up with a sweet small dog named Teddy and shared a close bond with my cat Suki for four wonderful years. My husband brings experience with larger dogs, and together we provide a balanced and loving environment for pets of all sizes and personalities. We’re dependable, gentle, and treat every pet like family—with two of us, your furry friend will get plenty of attention, love, and care around the clock. I currently work part-time as an Esthetician, usually on Tuesdays and occasionally Fridays, which means I have plenty of flexibility to care for your pets throughout the week. My husband works full-time Monday through Friday until 5 PM, so if I ever have an evening shift, he’s available to step in and help. With both of us working together, we’re able to offer consistent, attentive care—even on busy days. Whether your pet needs a midday potty break, playtime, or overnight snuggles, we’ve got it covered! Since I’m not able to host pets at my home, I offer personalized care right in the comfort of yours—where your pet feels safest and most relaxed. I’ll follow your routine closely, whether that means feeding, walks, playtime, or snuggles on the couch. I’ll keep your pet company, respect your space, and make sure everything stays clean and well-maintained. My goal is to give your pet love and attention like you never left, and to give you peace of mind while you’re away.
About: I love animals and the positive energy they bring. I taught my dog how to sit and when he got old I loved him and was patient with him. I’m working part time at wing-stop. Most my days are free and I’d love to give your dogs attention and love and care for them. I have a fence around my house. I don’t have any dogs living at my house so there isn’t a chance of conflict with dogs in my home. I’m respectful of others houses.
“Stephanie did a great job sitting for us. Our first meet and greet went great. She was engaging with our pets and was already trying to gain their trust. While we were gone we felt very confident that she had things under control. We have a cat the needs meds and although she wasn’t able to do the pills orally she was able to figure out a different way to get our cat to take her meds. Our pets were well taken care of and our home was left clean and tidy. She even washed and changed the sheets and towels. Stephanie is extremely responsible and did what she said she was going to do and was reliable and responded quickly. Well done.”
“Shaylee was great! I’m always nervous leaving my dog at home for a long period of time. Shaylee took great care of my dog and gave me updates which made me feel better. I will be using her again in the future. I highly recommend her!”
About: I've been around animals my whole life. I'm excited to take care of your furry family. I've trained horses and I have a dog of my own who is very sweet and kind. I work at nights at an arcade but I'm able to walk your pets, or drop by all hours of the day. I'll make sure they're well taken care of and loved 😋🩷 I have an open house, large back yard and a sizable built in kennel off to the side of the house. I'll be able to take care of all your pets needs and we'll have lots of fun together
About: I've taken care of cats of every kind since I was 8. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to check in, feed, and play with their dogs. It’s such a joy to be the visitor they see when they are left alone. I give them my full attention and all the care in the world, as if they were my own :) I'm currently out for the summer, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I'm available for boarding on both weekends and weekdays! I have enough time to give them all the loves! I have a fenced yard and a male labradoodle to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed as well!
“You could tell from Riley’s texts to me that she understood Abby’s needs. Words like cuddle, and sleep-in, and excited, and love-bug were used as well as photos. When we finally got home after a long drive thru traffic, we could tell from Abby’s reaction that she hadn’t been along for long. Riley went above and beyond spending lots of time with her.”
“Cheylynn stayed at our house and watched our dog. It was the longest we have left her and she is used to having us around a lot, so we were nervous. Cheylynn did a great job and left us at ease. She also left everything super clean. We would definitely use her again!”
About: I’ve always had a natural connection with animals, starting from my childhood as I was raised at my family’s farm. Over the years, I’ve become the go-to pet sitter for friends and family members when they travel, caring for a variety of breeds including doodles, schnauzers, and hounds. I currently have two lovable Great Pyrenees mixes and a cat of my own, so I understand just how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in, or overnight care, I treat every pet like part of the family—because that’s exactly what they are. Pet sitting fits naturally into my weekly routine. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets the attention and care they need throughout the day. Whether it’s early morning walks, mid-day check-ins, or evening cuddles, I can easily adjust my day to meet your pet’s routine. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so making time for it never feels like a chore, it’s a part of my lifestyle. I take care of pets on walks by make sure it’s not too hot or cold outside, touching the pavement, watching for discarded food on the ground, and keeping them focused on the walk and not on other animals or people.
About: I have a soft spot for dogs, especially those who have had a hard time finding forever families. Both of my dogs were temporary fosters in my home, but in the end became part of my family instead. I love training, playing with, and hanging out with fur-babies. I do my best to love your dog like my own, and reinforce any ongoing training you're doing. I can administer oral and topical medications, and belly rubs, and I would be happy to give them any additional care you request including baths. I will pay special attention to any dietary restrictions or medical concerns. I am at home full time. I do have kennels primarily for meal times, and for sleeping. We are all together the rest of the day. Dogs are introduced one at a time, at the pace of the most nervous dog. I have kennels that are useful to briefly hold a dog while they are waiting their turn to meet a new arrival, or to give each dog space during meal times. The cats have their own space that they can freely access (litterbox and cat food are kept out of the reach of our guests). The cats observe from a distance or a height until they are ready to introduce themselves. Most dogs are here for several hours before they see our cats.
About: I've owned dogs since I was 7. We are a dog family, and we love all types! Big, small, in-between! Taking care of them, showering them with love and making sure their needs are met is what we are best at! My daughter and I are quite the team. We've taken care of all our neighbors pets when they leave so we are branching out to serve a bigger area! Will that be you? Hope so! I currently work part time so I have time during the day and most weekends to pop in for potty breaks, and play time! As for watching them over night we can work that into the schedule as well! I have 2 older dogs that aren't too happy with change so for the time being I'm only offering to watch them in your home and come to you! From greeting them warmly and letting them out to potty and play as well as making sure they have water and food, they will be taken care of and not have the stress of leaving home!
About: I have always had dogs since I was very young. I also have experience with very young puppies. I expose all my puppies in a very gentle manner in order for them to have the best start at life. I have experience with many different types of dogs, I would love to meet your fur baby! I'm currently working part-time, it's a very flexible schedule. My weekends are completely open. I would love to create an enriching and safe environment for your puppy! I have a very friendly fur baby that would love to keep yours company while they stay with us. I am able to accommodate and follow any specific directions from you.

Jada F.
“I have known Jada for close to 15 years. She is the most compassionate animal lover I’ve ever met. She took care of our yellow lab, Max, many times for us when we had to be out of town ranging from one night to a 2+ week trip. She always treated him like one of her own and had no problem handling his meals, walks, and giving him his daily medications. Max loved his time with Jada and would happily go to her each time he saw her. Seeing the care she gave her personal pets (all sizes from a Jack Russel with diabetes to a rescue Rottweiler mix) and knowing her history of working in a vet office gave us added peace of mind that she could handle any emergencies that may come up while our Max was in her care. Jada truly puts her whole heart into any animals that she’s caring for. Aside from the exceptional pet care she provides, she is trustworthy and reliable and I wouldn’t hesitate recommending her to care for someone’s pet!”

Lauren & Nate H.
“Lauren absolutely loves animals! All of her future plans include her out on a piece of land surrounded by various animals. I saw her care for her cat with so much love like it was her child. She isn’t in a situation where she can have animals right now which means she has a whole lot of love just waiting to give to your’s.”
Cali H.
“I've known Cali for years, and I can say without a doubt that she is one of the most loving and responsible people when it comes to animals. She's had a dog since she was three years old, so caring for pets has always been second nature to her. Cali has a natural connection with animals—she understands their needs, moods, and quirks, and always makes them feel safe and happy. Whether it's going for a walk, playing fetch, or making sure your pet is fed and comfortable, Cali gives her full attention and care. Any pet would be lucky to spend time with her, and any pet parent can feel confident knowing their furry family member is in the best hands. I can't recommend her enough!”
