I am currently a full-time college student living about 10 minutes from campus. I have a hybrid schedule, so I have plenty of time to stay at home with your pup. My schedule is flexible and open to adjusting to you and your pups needs!

Safety, trust & environment

I like to care for dogs based on their usual daily routine because it helps them feel happy, comfortable, and right at home! If your pup loves to stay active, I’m happy to take them for a run, a long walk, or let them play freely in my fenced grassy backyard. If they prefer to relax, they’re welcome to nap inside or soak up the sun outside. My main goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and totally at ease during their stay. Even though I’m a full-time student, I have plenty of time before and after class to give your fur baby the love and attention they need, and I’m never away for long!

Information Sofia O. would like to know about your pet

Before hosting your pet, I’d love to know a bit about their personality and any special care they might need during their stay. Please be honest about how well they’re potty trained. Occasional accidents are totally okay, I just like to be aware so I can keep a closer eye on them. If your dog happens to cause any damage to my home or property during their stay, I do ask that owners cover the cost of repairs or replacements. It would also be super helpful if your pup is dropped off clean and groomed, especially if they’ll be staying indoors. All of this information helps me provide the best care possible and ensures your pet has a safe, comfortable, and stress-free stay!

A typical day

The activities I provide for your pup are based on their usual routine, I do my best to match what they’re used to at home. If your dog normally gets multiple walks a day, that’s exactly what I’ll stick to while they’re with me! Of course, only if their diet allows, but I love giving pups treats throughout the day! There’s also a park just a 10-minute walk from my home that dogs always enjoy exploring. I want their stay to feel as familiar and fun as possible!

Pet care experience

I’ve been around dogs my whole life and truly consider myself a dog person. I have experience caring for all kinds of pups with different needs. In my free time, I volunteer at the San Bernardino Animal Shelter, so I’m pretty good at reading dog body language and making sure everyone stays safe. My home has a fenced backyard with grass for playtime and potty breaks. At night, your pup is welcome to sleep wherever they’re most comfortable, whether that’s a dog bed, the couch, or even my bed! My goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and right at home.

Sofia was amazing! Really communicative, shared pictures and videos the whole time. Would highly recommend her, and will definitely have her take care of the dogs again!

Sofia is a real gem! She sent pictures and videos every day and I could see my dogs were content and happy. When I got home my house was spotless. She had the sheets in the washer, blankets in the dryer, and clean dishes in the dishwasher. I know she loved on my dogs because they didn't want her to leave when I got home. Highly, highly recommend!
