Moab is amazingly scenic, the Needles District of Canyonland NP is even more so. Here is a good description of the trail, by some guy named Todd Adams...

Also mentions the Joint Trail hike, which is a nice thing to do while you are there, as well as the Confluence overlook hike.

You'll be fine. But yes, no pets off the pavement at Canyonlands.
