Care For Your Four-legged Friends!

Hi there! I’m Sofía, a 22-year-old college senior with over 12 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and breeds. I’m currently studying a holistic approach to health and preparing to begin acupuncture school. My passion for wellness and compassion extends beyond people—animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve grown up with dogs, worked at kennels, and understand just how important it is to find someone you can truly trust with your furry family member. What sets me apart? I approach pet care with love, patience, and respect. I have experience caring for senior dogs, managing medications, and supporting pets with anxiety or special needs. I also enjoy helping with puppy routines—house training, leash training, and socialization. Whether your pup needs active playtime, gentle companionship, or just someone who “gets it,” I’ve got you covered. I know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your pet in someone else’s care. When I’m with your pet, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home. Looking forward to meeting you and your fur baby!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a gated backyard with space to run and have two friendly beagles that love to play. If it’s nice out I like to take them on walks and to the park which they can all play

Sofia is amazing! Always available to do last minute calls! Super outstanding work. She dog sat my 2 year old German Shepard while I was away in Peru. She took him out for walks, to go to the bathroom whenever I have to leave the country I never have any doubts or worries knowing my dog is under Sofia’s loving, care and supervision, she really has a passion for what she does, her doggy treats are the best contact buddy’s treats on IG!

I have known Sofía for 17 years and during these 17 years, she has been the proud owner of dogs; 2 that have crossed over the Rainbow Bridge and two feisty, friendly beagles at present. She has been a key role in the care and grooming of her beloved pets as well as understanding their needs to get out, be active and be responsible (understanding the importance of “curbing your pet” and the duty to stoop n scoop. She has a calming demeanor and any animal she comes into contact with, understands this as well. She is responsible, a NY state licensed driver, has been working since she earned her working papers and is a Principal’s Listed student with A grades. She will insure you furry baby is well provided for and exercised to perfection. You would be lucky to find someone as dutiful and responsible as Sofía. She has my vote!

Sofia is a very hardworking woman who loves pets. She’s honest and punctual. She has over 10 years of experience taking care of dogs and walking them. She knows how to take care of them and likes to play with them and go to the park. She has her own car and can walk your dogs . I recommend her and her attributes as a pet sitter and walker .
