Safety, trust & environment

With my pets I’ve been very loving and caring. In my clients’ homes I do the same, furthermore I deeply respect my clients’ wishes and flow of their home. I try to inform myself about the routine but also about the pets’ likes and dislikes to better accommodate them. I can help with quirky routines or special needs. And I always keep an open and honest communication.

Information Sofía G. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know about your routines, so your pet feels comfortable and the change without you is not that harsh. Any medication or special conditions I can manage.

A typical day

I am very flexible and will accomodate to your dogs needs. I like to go on long walks with them and let them lead, if they want to smell and explore, I’ll be right there by their side. I am the best at belly rubs and love laying on the floor and just let them come to me. Will teach them tricks if they’re up to it ☺️

Pet care experience

Si parla Italiano / English / Español Ho avuto animali domestici per tutta la vita e adoro stare con loro! Dal momento che amici e parenti sanno quanto amo tutti gli esseri viventi, hanno iniziato ad affidarmi i loro animali. Nel corso degli anni mi sono presa cura di animali nei Paesi Bassi, in Italia e in Guatemala, e ho amato ogni singolo momento di questa esperienza. Sono una persona paziente e mi sono occupata sia di cuccioli che di cani anziani. Ho molta energia, non mi spaventano le sfide e mi adatto facilmente alla personalità di ogni animale, rispettando sempre le sue abitudini e la vostra casa. E, soprattutto, mi prenderò cura del vostro animale come se facesse parte della mia famiglia! EN/ I’ve had pets all my life and really enjoy to be with them! Since my friends and family all know I loooove all of nature’s creatures I started taking care of their pets. Now I’ve been to Netherlands, Italy, Guatemala and I’ve loved each second. I’m patient, and have taken care of elderly dogs and puppies. I have high energy and will take on a challenge. I will easily adapt your pets personality and respect your household. And most importantly, I will take care of your pet as if it were part of my family!

I can't recommend Sofia enough to everyone!! She is an incredibly kind and responsible person who genuinely loves dogs, cats, and all animals. From the moment she meets them, she has a calm and caring presence that helps them feel comfortable and at ease. She pays close attention to each animal's personality and needs, making sure they get plenty of love, exercise and care. Sofia has taken care of my Westy Juli, and my two cats, Gatto and Taquito for over three years, gaining their love and trust. Whenever Juli saw Sofia she would excitedly jump for joy, knowing that a loving and protective person would be caring for her. Gatto and Taquito would also seek attention and caresses from Sofia, things that cats do not normally do. Sofia is dependable, communicative, and treats every animal as if they were her own. I always feel confident knowing my pets/"children" are in such capable and compassionate hands. If you're looking for someone you can trust to provide excellent care for your pets/"children", Sofia is your best choice!!!

Lola, my beloved minilabradoodle is an special one, loves people but not other dogrs ;-) and she struggles when staying in other places that is not home. Everytime we go on holidays we struggled to find the “perfect” place and person. Until we met Sofía! She is a sunshine! She stayed at home with lola for 2 weeks. This was the best we could ask for Lola! Staying at home with a wonderful, responsible caring person. Sofìa even learned few new tricks to Lola ( and she was 8 yro at that time!). Besides that Sofia is also amazing with kids and a great company. Her presence at home was a blessing! I can’t recommend Sofía highly enough! Thank you Sofía! Carolina J, Haarlem The Netherlands

I can't recommend Sofia highly enough as a pet caregiver. She has such a genuinely kind and compassionate heart, and it shows in the way she treats every animal she meets. She isn't someone who simply feeds pets and makes sure they're safe—she spends time with them, plays with them, gives them affection, and makes sure they feel loved and comfortable while their owners are away. I've known Sofia for years, and as my best friend I've seen firsthand how naturally empathetic and caring she is. She pays attention to each pet's personality and needs, and animals seem to trust her almost immediately. Whether a pet is energetic and playful or shy and anxious, she has the patience and warmth to make them feel at ease. One of the things I admire most about Sofia is that she genuinely enjoys being around animals. Caring for them isn't just a responsibility to her—it's something she does with joy. She treats every pet as if it were her own, with kindness, respect, and lots of love. If you're looking for someone who is reliable, loving, attentive, and truly devoted to animals, I can wholeheartedly recommend Sofia. Any pet would be lucky to spend time in her care.
