Information Sofia G. would like to know about your pet

- Is your dog potty trained? - Does your doggie have separation anxiety? I have had issues with some guest doggies being distressed when alone for a short time and destroying things. Rover does not cover property damage for hosts, so I absolutely cannot take on any doggies who have severe separation anxieties. - Is your dog comfortable with doggie/baby gates? - Ss your dog okay with small dogs? - Because I live in an apartment, excessive barking is not allowed.

A typical day

I live very close to the Presidio and enjoy hiking there with the more energetic doggies who require longer walks. I do not typically allow guest doggies off-leash while in my care.

Pet care experience

I know the names of most of the dogs in my area, not so much the owners :). Have always been a huge animal lover! I live in Laurel Heights which is a short walk to the Presidio where I take my own dogs for hikes and walks. Golden Gate park is also close by. I have one small senior dog (Poodle mix) who gets on well with other dogs. I was raised with a big dog and have a lot of experience with big and small dogs. **Due to some recent issues with larger dogs, I will not be taking on any new large doggie guests (over 100 lbs) for a while, only repeats. I will still accept new small/medium sized babies. I also have a car, so I can pick up and drop off your furry baby :)

Sofia is the only Rover I use! I can tell she treats my dog like her own. He doesn’t even look back at me when he leaves with her!

So glad to have found Sofia! She’s reliable, takes such great care of our dog Oreo, and sends daily updates. We know Oreo is in good hands with Sofia and her sweet senior pups!

Probably the best dog boarder I’ve ever met. She’ll send me photos and updates even if I don’t respond because I am caught up with my family vacation. Extremely thoughtful and considerate. I think she sets the standard for what a caring dog boarder is. Highly recommend Sofia!

Sofia took amazing care of Murphy! I appreciated her daily picture updates that showed he fit right in with her pup and in her home. She was very communicative and was very flexible with pick up and drop off. I would not hesitate to ask Sofia to take care of Murphy again!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
