Pet care experience
I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 7 years old. I have adopted adults and have also raised puppies for myself and friends. For my neighbors and other community members, I have house-sat and pet-sat. After transitioning my service dog in training into being a full-time service dog for another family, I realized I missed having a furry friend around, so, now I'm hosting your pups before I graduate and can foster again.
Reviews
Sophie loved Sofia. Definitely will try again
Excellent, Sophie loved her!
Sofia is the best. She takes great care of Millie and moose. We never have any concerns on how they are doing when they are hanging out with Sofia.
Sofia is the best. She obviously loves my pooches and takes great care of them. Sometimes I think my dogs think of their time with her as their vacation.
About Sofia J.

Safety, trust & environment
If you leave your pets with me, I ask that you share any and all important details so that I can accommodate your pets’ needs. For example, I love hearing about their exercise goals or the things that make them feel more comfortable, please let me know. Please also make sure to provide all toys, food, treats, and their crate if that is where they are used to napping.
Home
Information Sofia J. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know all of their dietary restrictions and if they have any routines that I can try stick to. Also, please let me know if they have any bad habits, so that I can be prepared. The more I know about what they like and dislike, the better I can cater to their needs.
A typical day
I love to go on walks, play fetch, and teach dogs tricks if they’re up for it. I have easy access to Rock Creek, and love walking or running on those paved trails. Since I'm currently in school, I prioritize getting your pups out for exercise early in the day so that they can nap peacefully while I read. When the pups get the zoomies, I take them to the fenced-in terrace where they can run around and play.

Availability
I’m a full-time student and I also work from home. I am therefore able to spend time with dogs/cats and give them the proper care and attention. **During the semester I am not able to provide full-time care for pets with separation anxiety, except on the weekends/holiday breaks when I can be sure to be home with them the entire time.
