Loving dog mom

Pet care experience

I have 2 dogs—a 6 year old Miniature Australian Shepard and a 4 year old mixed breed dog. I've always been around animals growing up-- our family has always had dogs and other animals (cats, hamsters, guinea pigs, etc) I have been an animal person all of my life and know exactly how special dogs are to their owners and will love and pamper your pets as I would for my own. I can even teach them some tricks if you'd like! I love dogs of all breeds, sizes, and ages. I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby!

Sofia has been great! Our puppy came home with a lot of fears to strangers and Sofia was super sweet and patient, and was able to build confidence with Duna very quickly. Within a week Duna was looking forward to her visits.

Sofia did a great job with my dog Maximus which I know can be a little wild at times! She sent me pictures throughout their walks to assure me everything was going ok. Sofia also took the time to meet and greet Max on a last minute notice. She’s a reliable and trustworthy person and I will definitely request her assistance again soon!

Sofia is great! She is always very flexible when I need her last minute and very patient with my crazy 1 y/o lab.

Information Sofia P. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog behaves on walks when seeing other people and dogs. I have experience with dog reactivity with my own dogs and can work around other distractions.

A typical day

I love to take dogs on walks and make sure they get lots of good sniffs in! I also love enrichment activities and puzzles to mentally stimulate dogs as well.
