Highlights
Pet care experience
🐾 Happy Tails & Mountain Trails
I've been a dog lover and owner for more than 25 years and have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors. My first two dogs lived to be 16 years old, giving me firsthand experience with the patience, attention, and extra care senior dogs often need. Today, I share my life with Bailey Love, my 5½-year-old rescue pup and adventure buddy. We spend lots of time exploring the trails and woods around Asheville, and it's where he's happiest. Bailey is friendly, well-trained, and loves making new friends...both human and canine. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, outdoor adventures, playtime, or simply curling up for a nap, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you're away. I treat every dog as family and will provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing they're in good hands. Administering meds will be an additional $10-$20, depending on meds and frequency. ***For overnight stays, Bailey would be with me - he is great with cats; he has grown up in a house with 3+ cats and litters of kittens and pups.***

Ratings and reviews
We couldn’t have asked for more from Sonya! She’s very flexible and personable, making the process of leaving our pets behind with her easier. If you book with her, you will NOT be disappointed!
Sonya was great and made Gracie Mae and myself feel so comfortable and loved!
Sonya did a great job with our anxious dog who requires daily meds. She was very communicative and we came home to a happy dog!
Sonya is delightful, energetic, and the best "human" to all the furry friends. She has looked after my dog with the outmost care and loving-kindness. My "girl" loves Sonya and I never worry about her when I'm away because I know that she's being taken care of as well as when she is with me. Sonya is communicative, professional, and a responsible pet owner as well. We absolutely adore her and would recommend her services in a heart beat!.
Sonya was great! She stayed with our dog Moose and our gecko Spike. She sent so many wonderful photos and communicated throughout. We really appreciate her taking such good care of them both.
Sonya is a genuine animal lover who treats every pet like family. She watched my dog, Luna, and was absolutely wonderful with her. Luna has a habit of getting into things that she shouldn't, so Sonya completely secured her home to ensure Luna stayed safe the whole time. Because Sonya works from home, she is flexible and always available to give pets the attention they need. She will truly love your fur baby as much as you do. I will definitely be booking with her again!!

Schedule
I own my own business and teach yoga, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for pets throughout the day. You'll often find me on the trails with my dog, Bailey Love, exploring the woods and soaking up nature. If your dog enjoys walks, hikes, sniffing every leaf, and outdoor adventures, we'll have a wonderful time together! For pets who prefer a slower pace, I'm equally happy providing cuddles, companionship, and calm care at home. 🐾💜
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. If your pet stays in my home, they will be treated like family. While I do not have a fenced yard, all outdoor time is supervised. Dogs can enjoy walks in my neighborhood, adventures on local trails, or relaxing time outside on a lead if they enjoy being outdoors. When caring for pets in your home, I will treat your space with the same respect and care I give my own. I understand the trust involved in welcoming someone into your home and caring for a beloved family member. For drop-in visits, I often have the flexibility to stay a little longer when schedules allow. As a business owner, I can sometimes bring my laptop and work from your home while spending extra time with your pet, offering additional companionship, playtime, cuddles, and comfort while you're away. My goal is to help your pet feel safe, loved, and as relaxed as possible until you're back home.
