Gap year animal care!
Pet care experience
Hello! I, like most people on this site I'm sure, grew up with cats, dogs, and other furry critters. I spent a lot of time throughout my teens volunteering at animal shelters and after my dog was sick I devoted a lot of time to caring for dogs in our local animal hospital.
Reviews
Sofia was great! I would love to book her again. She was friendly, easy to reach, and took good care of my cat. My initial sitter canceled two days before I was supposed to leave, and I was in a rush to find a replacement. Sofia responded to my message within a couple of hours, came over the next day to get a set of keys and see the apartment, and that was it—everything was fine. I highly recommend reaching out to Sofia and seeing if she’s available to look after your pet.
Sofia was great with the pups and very punctual. She met all of our needs and then some. We plan on enlisting her services again. Would recommend!

Safety, trust & environment
My biggest goal is to build trust with your animals. I am used to skittish animals and pride myself on being a calming influence on them. I am able to walk reactive dogs (given the correct leashes/harnesses etc) and leave room for cats who are not used to new people and take some time to warm up. I am excited to go on loooong walks with dogs who need a little extra something to get their energy out as well!
Information Sofia L. would like to know about your pet
I love to work with high energy animals but it will be great to know beforehand. If there are any behaviors your pet reacts to (positively or negatively) I will need to know before hanging out with them!
A typical day
I love to play fetch with dogs or go for runs with very high energy dogs (only if this is something they are used to). If pets are qualified for dog parks I am comfortable bringing your dog to meet others and make friends!
