About Sofia S.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
I have experience with crating dogs, safely walking dogs, and I am very responsible, hard-working, and respectful! I am also able to feed your pets if necessary. When I am in your home and working with your pets, I will, of course, follow any instructions that you leave for me.
Information Sofia S. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know in advance if there's any kind of special care that your dog needs. Also, if there is anything I should know about their comfort level with other dogs/pets and humans, if they can have treats, or any quirks they may have, let me know! I'm more than happy to accommodate them.
A typical day
I love taking dogs for long walks, hikes, and runs! I also love playing games and teaching them fun tricks. I'm also happy to just hang out with your dog if they need company during the workday. I like to take different routes every time I walk, so your dog and I will have plenty of fun things to explore. If you're comfortable with your dog being off-leash, we can also go to a park to play fetch and run around! I love finding new ways to keep dogs mentally engaged on walks.

Pets
Animal-loving Tufts PreVet Student!
Pet care experience
I’m a current junior on the pre-veterinary track at Tufts University and I would love to get some time walking and playing with your dogs! I've been walking dogs on Rover since my freshman year at Tufts, while also working as a Veterinary Assistant in a busy small animal clinic and at the New England Aquarium. When I was in high school, I walked dogs in my neighborhood, volunteered for the SPCA, and was involved in equestrian activities. One of my jobs was teaching horseback riding lessons, so I have experience working with animals and children, giving me confidence in my animal interactions. I also have experience training dogs, as I trained my dog to walk on and off leash, to listen to basic commands, and to do lots of fun tricks! Back home in CA, I have a 3-year old Husky mix, Juno, and a 3-year old cat, Burger King. Friends often say my dog is the best behaved dog that they know.
Cat care experience
Sofia also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
Sofia did a fantastic job watching my dog for a week! I will definitely be using her again next time I need someone to watch her
Sofia was a great sitter for my girls! She updated me daily on how they were doing, and ensured they were well taken care of and feeling loved while I was away. Sofia is very easy going and trustworthy and was a great choice for me and my dogs! Will definitely be reaching out again when I need a hand! Thank you Sofia!
Sofia is a very reliable dog walker. She is always on time and provides feedback and photos from each walk. My dog Lily was excited to see her. I will definitely be using her again!
Sofia was wonderful! She was available on short notice for some drop in visits which enabled us to get away for day knowing our old pooch was well cared for. Will definitely hire her again! Thanks Sofia!
