Dog Walking Woods Cross

“Ben is great!! My dog is a rescue and can be a bit skittish around strangers especially men, but Jethro isn’t scared seems to really like Ben and enjoys his visits with him. Ben has been walking and playing with my dog during visits and really trying to get to know my dog. I appreciate everything he has done and will continue booking him for weekly visits. Ben is definitely five stars!!”

About: I have lifelong experience caring for a wide range of animals, including cats, dogs, rabbits, lizards, turtles, hamsters, mice, and rats. Because of this, I’m comfortable adapting to different care routines, energy levels, and personalities — from active pets who need structured play and exercise to quieter animals who thrive with calm, consistent care. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and respectful of each pet’s individual needs, including feeding schedules, enrichment, and basic health monitoring. I’m also comfortable following specific care instructions to ensure pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for in their own environment while their owners are away. I work from home with a very flexible schedule so I can make most any sitting/walking times work with my schedule. I volunteer to care for rescue cats every Sunday at Petco, usually around noon. I've been known to spend hours at a home when I am cat-sitting for friends to ensure their pet gets plenty of attention while they're away. I'm also a nail-trimming pro and would be happy to try (at least) trimming your cat's nails, if asked. I have had senior cats of my own that required medication, I've given pills, powders, eye drops, and injections before.

“Amy was a very gracious and understanding dog walker willing to fit in at the very last minute. I was on a road-trip with my family and my neighbor could only take them out back not walk them. I have a 75 lb black lab mix and a 65 lb red heeler mix both of which are very strong. She took them both for a walk in stride and my neighbor told me she was so surely nice. For sure a good choice when you’re in a pinch and need to let your fur kids get some exercise.”

“McKenzie was absolutely fantastic with our dog and always showed up on time and was completely flexible with our schedule!! She did a great job and we highly recommend her to anyone for their dogs needs!!”

About: I’ve always had a cat and dogs throughout my life and have pet sit for my neighbors/family many times. I love animals and will enjoy playing with and getting to know your fur baby! I’m a part time student and have lots of free time during the week. My schedule is very flexible, I’m willing to work around your own schedule as needed. I can feed, water, walk, play with, and provide general company to your pet, as well as administer medication if needed. I pay close attention to any special needs instructions and follow them carefully.

About: Hi, my name is Tessa, and I'm a passionate dog lover. I've been around dogs my whole life and have always had a special connection with them. As a dog sitter, my top priority is to provide a safe and loving environment for your pet while you're away. I understand how stressful it can be to leave your dog behind, which is why I strive to make the experience as stress-free as possible for both you and your dog. I’m happy to accommodate any special requests or needs your dog may have, whether it's administering medication, sticking to a strict feeding schedule, etc. I am currently available for boarding on most week days and weekends to give your dog all the attention they deserve. My availability calendar is up to date. I take the safety of animals very seriously and have taken every step to ensure a safe and comfortable environment for your dog including: - Secure fences and gates - non-toxic plants - Cleaning supplies and other chemicals safely locked away I own a social dog who loves to meet new friends and run around our big, fenced yard. If your dog prefers not to be around other dogs, we can separate them in another section of the house.

“Jenny is great with my dog and very reliable! Would def hire again to take care of my dog.”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life! My mom is also a dog breeder and I’ve helped out with that a lot. I love getting out on walks with dogs to help them get exercise and to also help my own mental and physical health. I am a teacher and so I am available in the mornings before school and after school beginning at 3:45. I also would be available during my lunch breaks to drop in and do quick walks. I also have more availability over long weekends holiday breaks, and summer break. I’ve had dogs my whole life and I have helped my mom with her dog breeding business. And doing that I’ve learned how to keep dogs, healthy, and how to make them feel loved.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 12. Different abilities from young to elderly dogs and from 15 lbs to 150 lbs. I like to practice calmness in regular and unknown settings. I usually have the mornings free to be able to walk/ run or hiking. I like to make sure the animals and myself are safe. I make sure animals have a clean area to eat and play. A healthy trusting relationship between caregiver and animal is crucial for me to know that everyone is safe and happy.

About: I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life and love caring for pets of all ages and breeds! I’ve cared for my parents’ Lab/Border Collie mix and many friends’ pets. I’m familiar with basic dog training and understand the exercise, patience, and attention pets need. I’d love to care for your furry friend! I work from home, so I’m available throughout the day to give your furry friend plenty of love and attention. I have main-floor living and access to a shared fenced in neighborhood yard. When dog sitting I typically offer 1–3 walks per day, with potty and play breaks as often as every 30 minutes! I have a fenced in yard which is shared with my neighbors. Dogs are required to be on leash at all times, it’s perfect for a quick walk for a potty break and I live very close to a park which is perfect for playing. I cover my furniture with sheets so pets are welcomed on any furniture!

About: I have had pets in my home for my entire life. I have volunteered in animal shelters since 2019 and currently do regular shifts at a local shelter, where I walk dogs (I am trained to the most advanced level, meaning I can interact with and walk dogs who are still working on their social skills and interactions), take dogs and cats on local news shows to encourage adoption, foster dogs in my own home, and take part in educational opportunities to continually advance my animal care and advocacy abilities. My full-time job is remote and has a flexible schedule, so I can hang out with pets for much of the day and take breaks for outside time, playtime, appointments, and so on. I also teach a handful of yoga classes every week, usually in the late mornings, but the times vary from week to week. I am happy to give your pet what they need, whether that's scritichies, playtime, walks, gentle time sitting around, medicine, and so on. Whatever it is, I will be patient with them and their needs.

“Thank you! I have noticed he seems to only poop once a day and he went this morning. I appreciate the info. Thank you for taking care of Monty!”

“Amanda was the perfect choice for my pup! After working from home for so long over the past year I was worried about leaving Rupert home alone all day. Amanda took time to show Rupert some love, walked him around a lot, and went above and beyond for us. I will certainly use her again moving forward!!”

About: I have been working with animals for 18 years. Everything from dogs and cats, to horses, reptiles, small animals, birds and fish. I have managed and worked at daycare and boarding facilities, vet clinics, foster care programs, and have been a dog trainer for the last 7 years. I have experience with selective dogs, fearful dogs/cats, the highest of high energy dogs (I have a Dutch Shepherd and a Malincollie, so I have a special place in my heart for the high drive breeds) puppies/kittens, and seniors. I’ve never met a dog I couldn’t win over; I am patient, gentle, approachable, and have done extensive work on understanding body language in order to help every dog I meet. I currently am a dog trainer part time on Tuesdays and Thursdays, with the occasional weekend outdoor trip. Other than that, my schedule is open. I care for every animal the way I would want my pets treated. I ensure their safety, happiness, cleanliness, as well as mental and psychical stimulation and exercise. Every animal in my care will have the time of their lives with proper outlets, and proper feeding and potty schedules.

“Would 10/10 recommend Meghan for any of your pets needs/ services. Meghan was great with my dog. He’s old and requires patience and special care. She was very gentle with him, communicated well and sent pictures. He loved getting the extra attention. Will use her again in the future.”

About: I've raised my dog Fulton, a pomeranian for 10 years, through the puppy stage and into his senior years. That's taught me how much routines, energy levels, and needs change over a dog's life, and how to adjust walks to match. What you can expect: On-time walks with a photo and update after every visit Routes suited to your dog's energy, from city parks to red rock trails Clear communication through the Rover app, start to finish I split my time between Salt Lake City and southern Utah, so check my calendar or send a message to book a Meet and Greet. I work for myself, so my schedule is flexible and I can usually fit walks in during the day, including midday breaks. I split my time between Salt Lake City and southern Utah, and I keep my Rover calendar current so you always know when I'm in your area. Walks start and end at your home. Before the first walk, we'll do a Meet and Greet so I can learn your dog's routine, leash habits, and any triggers. On every walk I: -Use your dog's leash and harness, double-checked before we head out -Avoid busy roads and adjust for heat, cold, and trail conditions -Keep your dog away from unfamiliar dogs unless you've said it's okay -Lock up behind me and send a photo and update when we're done

“A big thanks to Megan who is able to do last minute walks, truly a lifesaver!”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have cared for them most of my life. My family has had dogs since I was little, and I’ve frequently been the one to feed, walk, and watch them since middle school. I also regularly walk and watch friends’ and neighbors’ dogs, so I have experience with a variety of breeds and personalities. I love getting outside with dogs for walks and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. What sets me apart is my reliability and attention to detail. I’ll follow your pet’s routine closely, give them plenty of exercise and affection, and send you updates so you can feel confident they’re in great hands. I am currently available any time during the week so I can take great care of your dogs and give them lots of attention! My current schedule is very flexible until the end of November so I am able to work my schedule around the needs of your dogs. :) I love to take dogs on lots of walks to make sure they are getting their energy out and also spend as much chill time with them as they need!

About: I've been around cats and dogs my whole life, and get along with animals large and small. I've trained anxious dogs to love walks, and even taught a cat to roll over. A good day to me has at least one puppy cuddle! I'm a remote freelancer, so I can easily fit around you and your pet's schedule! I know every pet and every pet parent has their own habits and patterns, so I work to make sure things are as consistent as possible, honoring your home and your schedule.

About: I have experience in all kinds of pet care, from exotic animals to delivering puppies, I really have done a little bit of everything! I previously managed a local dog daycare and boarding facility and have both personal and professional experience with administering medications, dietary restrictions, behavioral needs, and special-needs care, including dogs with diabetes and megaesophagus. These days, my dog Stella is my best friend and goes just about everywhere with me! Please let me know when booking if your pup is comfortable around other dogs or prefers their space, either is totally okay! I just like to know ahead of time. *Stella will need to be with me for any house sitting requests Whether you need house sitting, drop-in visits, or walks, I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and send plenty of photos and updates along the way. Long story short, I love all pet companions and look forward to meeting yours! 🐾💜 I’m in between jobs at the moment, so my availability is fairly open! My schedule is very flexible, which means I can easily work around your pet’s normal routine and make their care a priority. I’ve volunteered at animal shelters and sanctuaries, house sat for friends and family, and most recently helped manage a dog daycare and boarding facility. There, I gained extensive hands-on experience caring for pups of all ages and needs, with a special focus on seniors and dogs with medical conditions or other special care requirements.
