How Pet Care Fits into My Routine Daily Routine • Morning: Start the day with feeding, fresh water, and any required medication for pets. Followed by a walk or play session to ensure pets are active and engaged. • Midday: Check-ins for potty breaks, walks, or companionship as needed, ensuring pets aren’t left alone for extended periods. • Evening: Another round of feeding, playtime, and grooming, along with a final walk or cuddle session to wind down the day. Weekly Routine • Plan schedules to accommodate regular clients and adjust as needed for new requests or special care needs. • Set aside time for deep cleaning (e.g., litter boxes, food/water bowls) and replenishing supplies like food, treats, or grooming tools. • Monitor pets’ health and behavior, ensuring any changes are promptly communicated to owners. • Stay flexible to accommodate last-minute requests or emergencies, prioritizing each pet’s well-being. Pet care seamlessly integrates into my life because I genuinely love what I do and take pride in providing attentive, personalized care for every animal I work with.

Please let me know what your rules are for your pets. I will respect them to a T and make sure all their needs are met. I do not walk aggressive dogs or dogs who have a history of biting/aggressive behaviors.

I love to play with dogs and keep them entertained and loved while their humans are away! I love to take pups on walks and make sure we are being safe during our walks!

Amazing! We were very nervous to leave our fur babes as we travelled all the at over to California, and after recently moving the Durham area. But Sofia was so wonderful!!! Her care was exceptional and she was so thoughtful with her daily updates, photos and info for us! Our doggie fell in love with her and her husband! ❤️ Thank you!!!!!

Sofia did a great job catsitting for me over the weekend and I will definitely be using her services again! She was communicative, accommodating, and my cat loved her.
