Because I work from home and my job in the coffee business is very flexible, I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pup throughout the week! They will rarely be left alone and will get plenty of attention, playtime, and regular potty breaks during the day. I am also fully available on weekends, which is when my dog and I usually head out for fun adventures to local dog parks!

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a spacious, dog-friendly apartment in Ballard. While it is an apartment, taking your dog out for quick, frequent potty breaks is incredibly easy! My neighborhood is a dog's paradise—we are surrounded by beautiful local parks and dog parks, giving your pup plenty of safe, green spaces to explore on our walks. I treat every guest dog like a member of my own family, and ensuring your dog feels safe, secure, and relaxed in my home is my absolute top priority.

Information Sofia W. would like to know about your pet

I have extensive experience caring for small and medium-sized breeds across all stages of life—from playful puppies to gentle seniors. Whether your dog has boundless, high energy or prefers a low-energy, cozy lifestyle, I am more than happy to tailor my care, follow your specific instructions, and accommodate the exact routines your dog requires.

A typical day

6:00 AM - 6:30 AM: Rise and shine! We start the day early with a full hour of active outdoor time, usually playing plenty of fetch to burn off that morning energy. 12:00 PM: Lunchtime means a solid one-hour walk around Ballard to stretch our legs and get some fresh air. Afternoon: Time for brain games! We take a break from the workday for mental stimulation activities (like stuffed KONGs or puzzles) and another quick potty break. 9:00 PM: We wind down the night with a relaxing 20-minute "sniff walk" walk before bedtime so everyone sleeps soundly.

Pet care experience

About Me Hi! I'm a proud Colombian, a lifelong dog lover, and I work entirely from home in the coffee business. I am also a dog mom to a high-energy Australian Cattle Dog! I have always found something incredibly special in dogs—their unconditional love brings immense joy to my life, and I absolutely adore having canine coworkers to keep me company during the day. As a pet parent myself, I know how hard it is to leave your furry best friend behind. My goal is to be a trustworthy, reliable sitter who gives you total peace of mind and makes your dog feel completely at home! 🧠 Mental Enrichment & Training Because I raise a working breed, I am an expert at keeping dogs mentally stimulated! To make sure your dog is happily tired, I utilize: -Sniffing games & hide-and-seek -Stuffed KONGs & lick mats -Interactive dog puzzles -Simple obedience training and fun tricks (upon request!) 🏃‍♀️ Active Lifestyle & Exercise I am a very active person by nature. Depending on your dog's energy levels, I love providing exercise through: -Long walks & runs -Endless games of fetch -Nature hikes -Dog park visits 💖 Attentive Care Every dog is unique. I am highly attentive and more than happy to follow your specific instructions and accommodate any special needs, diets, or routines your dog requires.

Sophia had great communication during the whole process and was very flexible when I needed to change my pick up and drop off times last minute. Milo will for sure be back to stay with her and her pup.

Sofia has been a perfect fit for us and our dog. She was easy to communicate with and flexible in scheduling. We really enjoyed working with her and was happy to see photo and video updates throughout her time caring for our dog. Looking forward to seeing her again soon and so is Winston!
