Pet care experience

Helping Tails Wag Every Day

I’ve been caring for pets since I was 10 years old, and my love for animals has only grown stronger over the years. I currently have a Pitbull and a Dachshund—both are such a big part of my heart. I worked as a kennel technician at an animal hospital for over a year, where I gained hands-on experience and loved every moment surrounded by animals. After stepping away to focus on school, I continued learning and expanding my skills—especially in caring for sick pets. I’ve since learned how to give vaccines, administer subcutaneous fluids, and care for puppies with parvo, which has deepened my knowledge and confidence in handling pets with medical needs. What sets me apart from other sitters is not just my experience, but the medical skills I bring to the table and the care I put into your lovely pets. I aim to offer personalized, one-on-one attention in the comfort of keeping your pet safe and happy in their own home, all while pricing at a rate that’s fair for both you and me—a level of care and comfort a boarding facility simply can’t offer.

Safety, trust & environment

At this time I am not open to boarding in my house. My little one is not very dog friendly and often my big one must keep an eye on her to protect the other dog from her temper, they are such a cute big dog little dog combo!!

Sophia is amazing! She was very communicative throughout her stay and took very good care of two dogs. She was able to get our boy, Orbit to eat as he usually goes on a food strike when things are out his routine. Sofia is absolutely trustworthy and reliable. We look forward to booking her again soon!

Schedule

Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine and something I truly enjoy. I always prioritize the pet’s needs and well-being, aiming to create a calm, low-stress environment. This balance allows me to continue doing what I love—working one-on-one with animals—while also pursuing my education in veterinary. It’s the perfect way to stay connected to my passion while being mindful and attentive to each pet’s unique needs.

Please let me know of anything special you’d like me to do for your pet and provide me with some detail about how your pets temperament is. I’ve worked with all types of behaviors, but it’s always good to be prepared! I like to be properly prepared in order to ensure your pet is in good hands and for you as a pet owner to feel safe and happy about who is taking care of them. Me in this case, happily to do so!
