Former Exotic Animal Caretaker 🥰

Pet care experience

I have been living in Mount Vernon since September! I do jiu jitsu full time and don’t have a separate job! I had 5 dogs when I was younger so I definitely know what it’s like to have my hands full and dish out a ton of love. I worked with exotic animals for a couple years including first aid care, feeding, & cuddles. I also ran Track for 12 years I’m very dedicated & responsible. I’m certified in first aid and CPR for any necessary circumstances. I’ve done extensive babysitting and nannying and took care of pets along with the kids. Families always recommended me to other sets of parents and I did frequent overnight care.

Sophia and Rachel were great! They watched our two Chihuahuas, Cookie and Ardy! Sophia sent videos of them taking Cookie and Ardy on walks and they really looked like they had fun! I would definitely recommend Sophia and Rachel!

Sofia did an outstanding job. Constantly sent pictures to us to show how much fun our dog was having. This was our first time leaving our dog and Sofia made the process easy. Would recommend her to anyone.

We used Sofia this past weekend for the first time. She was very accomodating to Gunnar's needs and watched him at our house. We received lots of pictures and Gunnar seemed to enjoy her staying with him. It was a rainy weekend so they couldn't take any walks, but I'm sure when we have Sofia in the future they will. Definitely would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter.

Omg, Cookie was such a happy gurl from having such a good time. Sofia and Rachel are the absolute BEST pupper sitters around!!! They loved my girl as much as me and my kids while we were away on vacation. I got vids and pics and they spoiled her as she deserves to be. So will be using them whenever I can!!!

Information Sofia W. would like to know about your pet

No preferences at all! I love all pets! But if they have any places they don’t like to be scratched (a friend of mine’s dog growls when you touch her back legs), or any other specific needs they have. OR anything the pets LOVES so I can make sure to get it for them or do it with them!

A typical day

If toys & treats aren’t provided I will definitely get some for them to play with! I have a backyard we could play in. I plan on taking them to the parks around town and any other facilities that allow pets!!
