Pet care experience

Animal-lover w/ tons of experience

I’ve taken care of dogs of all shapes and sizes since I was a child with my own dogs and taking care of my neighbor’s pets. Now, I am regularly called on by friends and family to dog-sit and am often referred to their friends and family too. I’ve spent the majority of my life as a pet-owner/dog mom. I treat each pet as a member of my family, and see my own as my fur-children and will treat yours with the same level of love and respect.

Sonia did a great job watching our dog Jasper. She sent us photo updates, let us know how he was doing and Jasper loved her! I’d definitely recommend her.

As ALWAYS Sonia was amazing to our girl, Skylar! Skylar can be a bit tough to handle but takes to Sonia right away… won’t leave her with anyone else.

Always amazing!!! Thank you, Sonia - Skylar already misses you. We really appreciate all your attention to detail with our girl. Thank you for being so communicative with us and giving us the confidence we need when we go away.

Schedule

I work a hybrid work schedule that allows me the opportunity to spend plenty of time in my home or yours with your furry friend. They will regularly be let outside for potty breaks, a fun game of fetch, or walks.

Safety, trust & environment

I own a house with my partner with a fenced-in yard with a dog door for easy access. We have two dogs at home to keep yours company, if you’d like. They are both fully vaccinated and love to play with other dogs. We treat each day like a fun doggy-play date.

Pets

A typical day

I am happy to take your dog on a walk, run, or hike. However, if they’d rather just cuddle up on the couch or lay in bed all day, I’m happy to do that too.
