Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
- I will make sure they have the basic necessities like food, water, and any necessary medications. However most importantly I will make sure they get the love and attention they deserve. Pets are our families and when we go on vacation we don’t want our furry friends back at home to feel lonely. This is where I step in and take care of both their physical and emotional needs.
Information sofia j. would like to know about your pet
- I would love to know about the dogs eating schedule, level of activity, and personality! For example: are they a couch potato or do they need constant activity? Are they very good motivated or do they thrive off praise?
A typical day
- I love hiking. Not only is it great exercise for a dog, the new smells and sights are mentally stimulating and keep the dog engaged. My go to spots are Eaton Canyon, Arroyo Seco, the Rose Bowl, and Sturrevant Falls. (I don’t mind driving your pooch in my car) - If the dog is not up to long hikes yet, frisbee and games of fetch keep a dog happy and getting a good workout in. - If they have all their shots and the owner is comfortable, I can also swing by a dog park such as the South Pasadena or Sierra Madre Park for some good dog on dog interaction. - Additionally I do not mind simple walks around the neighborhood & I will strive to accommodate all types of dogs and their abilities

Grad Student & Pet Lover
Pet care experience
I am an incoming graduate student who is taking care of pets for a little extra money. I have a cat named Zuko (black and white) who I adopted in college and took with me across the country to grad school! I also recently adopted Ziggy (brown tabby) from the wake county animal shelter.

Reviews
Sofia took care of my kitten Adele for a week and did an amazing job. She was very attentive, responsible, and loving with my kitten. Adele is still very young, so I really appreciated that Sofia stayed overnight at my home to help her feel comfortable and safe. She also sent me photos and videos, which gave me a lot of peace of mind while I was away. I’m very grateful for the care and attention she gave Adele, and I would definitely recommend her.
Sofia was truly excellent, and I can’t recommend her highly enough! She took such great care of my husky, Wynn, and handled her very energetic and sometimes chaotic husky personality with so much patience, care, and attention to detail. It was clear from the start that Sofia really took the time to understand Wynn’s needs and routine, which gave me total peace of mind. Her communication throughout the stay was fantastic. She consistently checked in and sent plenty of updates, photos, and videos while she was at my apartment, which I genuinely appreciated. Seeing Wynn happy, relaxed, and well cared for made being away so much easier. On top of that, Sofia’s attitude was so positive and encouraging the entire time. She was proactive, thoughtful, and clearly loves what she does. Wynn absolutely adored her, and I know she felt comfortable and cared for every step of the way. I’m incredibly grateful for Sofia and would not hesitate to book her again. Both Wynn and I appreciated her more than I can say—she’s an amazing sitter!
Sofia is amazing. Does a great job, great communication, and flexible! My dog is always excited to spend time with her :)
Sofia is great!
