Pet care experience

i like big mutts and i cannot lie

18 year multiple pet parent here, grew up with both dogs and cats. Lots of experience with super seniors both cats and dogs including administering meds, diabetics, epilepsy, and all the other joys of old age. Experienced with the youngins too, though untrained puppies are probably not the best fit. haha. Dog life doesn't fit with my current household, so i'm looking to get my big slobbery dog time in with yours <3 . Loving and trustworthy, my cats are my family and likewise, I'll treat yours as such. Im even a seasoned gardener and i'l water your plants :)

Safety, trust & environment

I am available for short or longer term drop-ins at your house for cats and dogs, dog walking, and potentially cat only boarding in my home, though we know they would be happier staying in their own home.

Schedule

Going on a trip? I'm currently available part time, friday afternoon-monday evening, But anticipate having nearly full availability as we get later into the fall and around the holidays. (Currently working a day job tues-fri, but hours are getting shorter and I’m looking to transition more to pet care full time). If your request falls outside of this window, or you arent sure, just ask. Can be somewhat flexible for the right fit, or longer/recurrent care situations.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs

over 101 lbs
Sonja can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
Let me know if your furry friend has any special needs I can accommodate, favorite games or snacks, ways to be petted. Or special quirks I should be careful of. Skittish babes that need a little patience, I’ve got it for days. Aggressive dogs that mistrust and snap are a no go.
