Fetch Park City

A dog does well here because a handler knows them.

Not knows their name — knows that this one guards her housemate, that one needs ten minutes before he'll join a group, this one's limp means something and that one's doesn't.

That takes months to learn. It isn't in any training manual. It lives in one specific person.

So the thing that actually decides how good your dog's day is isn't how many acres we have. It's whether the person who knows your dog is still here next year.

That's why we'd rather take fewer dogs. Fewer dogs, more time for each one, and people who stick around long enough to know yours.

There is something special about the people who find their way to Fetch.

Our team brings different backgrounds, interests, and personalities into the work, and that is part of what makes the care here feel personal. The relationships are not only built with the dogs in front of us, but also with the community around them and the people who already know and love them.

For us, that familiarity matters. It helps turn everyday care into something more connected, more thoughtful, and more rooted in the kind of place we want Fetch to be.

"Your dog is your mirror," Cody, one of our dog handlers, says.

He met Soja in 2017. An amazing relationship the whole way through, he calls it — the two of them learning from each other over the years, walking city blocks, backpacking the Uintas.

Soja passed at twelve, surrounded by the people who loved him most.

Irie came after. She was picked out of a friend's litter, purposely, just for Cody. She's happy-go-lucky, a pal in waiting, and she's his mirror too.

Cody describes himself as an odd, well-educated helicopter parent. We'd call that a fantastic dog owner.

We're fairly sure Soja and Irie are in cahoots, conversing in dreams, a friendship that never got to happen nose to nose. The interdimensional phone bill must be absurd.

The Fetch experience is built by people who care about the details most families never see.

From the way our spaces function to the way each dog moves through their day, we believe thoughtful care means creating an environment that feels dependable, comfortable, and genuinely designed with dogs in mind.

That takes people with different strengths, a willingness to jump in where needed, and a shared commitment to doing things well. It is one of the reasons Fetch has grown the way it has by building around the dogs first and making sure the people behind the scenes can support that every day.

Forest only has three legs. Nobody told Forest.

"Nothing stops Forest from doing what he loves," says Irene, who took one look at him and called dibs on the spot. "His ears, his everything. He's just a silly guy."

A few months later, she started fostering Grimm — a teeny little baby who was meant to be temporary and wriggled his way into permanent.

Grimm thinks Forest is the best thing in the world. Better than a milkbone dipped in gravy.

Forest, for his part, tolerates him. With love, obviously.

Both come to work with Irene, one of our dog handlers at Fetch, and spend the day running the hills while she does. And Forest — brown eyebrows arranged into a convincing smiling menace, tough guy, acts like he's above all this — is going soft.

Irene can confirm. They sleep bum to bum.

**UPDATE: ADOPTED** 🐾 Meet Barbara Jean! 🖤

Barbara Jean is a 3-year-old, spayed female Mini Goldendoodle weighing a whopping 8 pounds (she’s working on gaining some weight). She's a sweet, gentle little girl with so much love to give!

After a rough start that included emergency surgery to remove something she ate that definitely wasn't on the menu, Barbara Jean has made a wonderful recovery and is officially ready to find her forever home!

This affectionate little lady loves being near her people, whether that means lounging on the couch or following you around the house. She can be shy at first, but once she feels comfortable, her sweet personality shines!

Barbara Jean is gaining confidence every day, discovering the joy of toys, and learning how wonderful life in a loving home can be. She’s doing great with potty training, gets along well with other dogs, and peacefully coexists with cats.

All Barbara Jean needs now is a family to call her own! ❤️

A great day for a dog starts long before the first tail starts wagging.

There is a lot happening behind the scenes at Fetch to keep every part of the experience thoughtful, dependable, and centered around the dogs in our care. What may look effortless from the outside is really the result of people working together, noticing the small details, and taking pride in making sure everything is ready for another day.

That shared responsibility is a big part of what makes Fetch feel like Fetch and helps us give dogs and their families the kind of care they can count on.

Rich, one of our handlers, wanted exactly one fluffy dog.

That was the plan. He went to Paws for Life and was told many of the dogs weren't kept onsite — and the sentence had barely landed before a blur of fur came around the corner and plopped his curly-tailed bum down at Rich's feet.

Eye contact. Soul ties.

"This is the dog I'll take." Then: "Does he have any dog friends here?"

The answer swaggered in from the back—a black-and-white cat covered in scabs and a rash. Scruffles had landed at the shelter around the same time as Derby, and the two were inseparable.

So Rich went home with a short-haired dog and a cat. The rash turned out to be stress. It disappeared within days.

Noodles came later. A foster fail.

"How could I adopt out this little chihuahua and take him away from Scruffles?" Rich laughs. "Everybody there knew I was going to keep him before I did."

One fluffy dog. That was the plan.

Some of the most meaningful connections with dogs happen when we stop expecting them to fit into our world and start learning how to be part of theirs.

Every dog brings something different to the relationship, and that's something we celebrate at Fetch. Whether they're part of our daycare family or have found a new beginning through Fetch Cares, we believe every dog deserves to be understood, respected, and cared for as an individual.

It's the little moments of progress and connection that remind us why we love what we do. And sometimes, those connections turn into something that lasts a lifetime.
