“After a long day of traveling Sonja still found the time to go take my puppy for a walk! She sent me picture updates and stayed a minute to play, I can’t tell you how grateful I am for her!”


About: I have maintained companion animals within my household for the majority of my life. I cherish every moment with my animals—two dogs and two cats—as they provide me with immense joy and solace. I recognize that each individual shares a unique bond with their animals. I aspire to respect and celebrate this connection by facilitating the strengthening of the human-animal relationship. I am personally aware of the profound healing and support that animal companions can offer to their human families. I work part-time teaching Reiki. Morning and midday are my best times for pet care. Any day of the week is available for me. Animals love Reiki, too! When I’m pet sitting in a client’s home, I focus on keeping the pets safe and the space respected. I follow their routines exactly—feeding, walks, medications—and I secure entry points and keep emergency contacts close. I send regular updates to help the client feel confident and informed. I use the pet’s familiar toys and bedding to create a calm environment, and I stay alert to any changes in behavior or health. I treat both the animals and the home with care, consistency, and kindness, ensuring everything feels peaceful and well-maintained.
About: What sets me apart is the genuine love I bring to every pet I care for. I’ve had cats and dogs all my life, and I know they’re more than pets—they’re family. I take time to understand each animal’s personality, routine, and needs, whether that’s administering meds, keeping to a schedule, or just offering comfort and companionship. I’m calm, patient, and intuitive, and I treat every animal with the same level of care and attention I’d want for my own. You can count on me to show up with a kind heart, a watchful eye, and a deep respect for your pet’s well-being. Pet care isn’t just part of my day—it is my day! I’m a full-time sitter with a flexible schedule, so your pets get all the love, attention, and snuggles they need. I also make time for volunteer work, which fills my heart just as much as furry face kisses do. Caring for animals fits perfectly into my rhythm—and honestly, I wouldn’t have it any other way. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I treat the space with the same respect and care I would expect for my own. I follow all instructions closely—from feeding routines to favorite toys to any house rules—because I know consistency matters. I’m mindful, tidy, and always prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort. Building trust means everything to me, and I take that responsibility seriously every time I walk through your door.

About: I am passionate about taking proper care of your pets and looking out for their needs such as exercising them and of course, belly rubs! I am totally flexible.

I have a fenced in yard and we exercise every morning on a walk or an outing in a peaceful,safe and quiet country setting. I never have more than 4-5 dogs at a time, so everyone gets lots of individualized attention.

“We've used Ro a couple times for over night stays and walks during the day and they've always been great. The most recent visit was for mid day walks. She was super communicative and helpful. One of our dogs had tummy issues and she went back to check on him and put him in his create to avoid accidents in the house. I'm so grateful to be able to trust her and that she's willing to go the extra mile for our animals.”
