Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced & Caring Pet Pro
Hi, I’m Sofia. I am a privately insured full-time dog walker and sitter! I have experience with dogs and cats of all different sizes, breeds and temperaments. I have 7+ years of professional pet care experience having previously worked for two Los Angeles based pet care companies, and lifelong personal experience with animals. I love getting outside and exploring with dogs or playing with cats on a visit. I also have one cat and two senior dogs of my own, so three very spoiled and loved animals! Outside of pet care I'm an LA native who loves gardening, movies, crafting, and the Dodgers. As a pet owner myself, I know how nervous you may feel when leaving your pets in the care of someone else. My goal is to make your life and your pets life as easy and as comfortable as possible. I do that by staying in constant communication with you, following your notes and preferences, caring for your pets responsibly and always treating them with respect and love.

Ratings and reviews
Thanks so much Sofia!
Sofia is so great with our visually impaired senior guy! She’s very attentive to him snd highly communicative with us.
Seriously the best dog walker anyone could ask for. She handled our three dogs like a pro, and was polite and kind. 10/10. Highly recommended!
Sofia was great! Took very good care of our three animals. Communication was easy, stayed in touch consistently while we were gone and made us feel super comfortable. Would definitely rebook!
Sofia has been our house sitter consistently all year - she continues to be super responsive and helpful!
We’ve booked repeatedly with Sofia because she’s dependable, keeps things clean, communicates beautifully and we trust her with our pet! This time was no exception. Thank you!!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
When doing overnight sitting, where I spend the night in your home, I like to follow the owner's routine and preferences as this makes the dog/cats life less stressful while you are away. Meet and greets before a sitting are a great way for me to learn about your routine and preferences before a sit. Some owners have also left detailed care instructions that mention feeding schedules, friends/neighbors phone numbers and home care information. Also, I send super cute frequent photo/video updates and am a very neat and tidy person in your home.
Pets
A typical day
Hikes or walks, sniffing and exploring the neighborhood; I love getting outside to explore or playing inside. Snuggling and pets are always included. Plus, lots of attention towards your animal with frequent photo/video updates. Let me know if your pet has a favorite park, walking route, or activity.
