Pet care experience

Lovely retreat

Hi! My experience with dogs is extended. Back in my country we had 2 playful, rescued dogs. Dug, my older dog, had a skin condition, therefore, playing, exercising, dieting and providing medicines was a careful but lovely job to do that gave me lots of patience but also the satisfaction of helping him. Since moving to Hawaii, I ve worked with over 25 different and repeated clients, 125 to 10 pounds dogs, hairy, with anxiety, restricted diets, calm and active energy. I want their stay to be an excellent experience, with a temporary family that treats them that way :) I count with my boyfriend support so we can meet all their needs.

Amazing dog sitter! She took great care of my dog and made me feel comfortable knowing my pet was in good hands. Very reliable, friendly, and easy to communicate with. I really appreciate the care and attention she gave my dog. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog sitter! Thanks for everything

I can’t recommend Sofia enough! She has been absolutely wonderful with my dog, and I feel completely comfortable knowing he’s in her care. She is reliable, communicative, and genuinely cares about him—not just as a dog she’s walking, but as her own little friend. Also her boyfriend Daniel and him are besties as well. She is always great about keeping me updated and making sure he gets plenty of attention, exercise, and love. My dog is always happy to see her, which says everything! It gives me so much peace of mind knowing he’s getting quality time and care when I’m working. If you’re looking for someone trustworthy, dependable, and truly loving with animals, I would absolutely recommend her!

I was so impressed with Sofia and the care she took with our dog, Koda. Koda settled in so quickly because of all the love and care she received from Sofia. Koda loves to be active so Sofia took her to the park to play fetch with her ball and took her on runs. We didn't realize when we dropped Koda off, but she had a sore on the pad of one of her paws so Sofia treated it each day by washing it and applying ointment.

I can’t say enough good things about Sofia!! She is so kind, knowledgeable, and very experienced. She sent us many updates and photos/videos throughout the weekend which allowed us to relax while we were away because we knew our dog was in good hands. She was also extremely flexible with pick up/drop off times. The park where she lives is huge and beautiful tons of green space. If I ever need to a pet sitter again I will definitely be contacting Sofia. Thank you so much Sofia!!!!! ❤️❤️

Safety, trust & environment

When sitting at my place, the owners are more than welcome to come by, see the conditions of the place. The area I live in. It’s a spacious apartment, with a closed balcony in a very quiet neighborhood. When sitting at their homes, they can expect me to come previously to learn their pets routine, and needs, when a dog, I like to go for a walk with their owner so I can learn their behavior and limits, and also, when staying with them. I’ll be probably in my computer or reading.

A typical day

I’m always home, so they will have company most part of the day. My service includes 4 walks a day: 2 of those for playing. Some days runs can be part of our routine. I live in a very spacious apartment with balcony and lots of air flow so it’s very nice and relaxing. I can take the dogs to our private park and that’s where normally I’d brush them, play with the ball etc. They are allowed on the couch and in the room.
