I enjoy long walks & dog cuddles.

Pet care experience

$20 off your first booking! Promo Code: SONYAS62980 My name is Sonya, I am currently an undergraduate student at Virginia Commonwealth University, studying to pursue a career in dentistry. I am bilingual, fluent in English and Spanish. I am interested in something part-time while in school. Being a huge animal lover, this job is a plus! I currently own multiple pets such as dogs, a cat, and a gecko. So I have experience with multiple animals under one household. I don't remember a time when I didn't have a dog as a pet, I've grown up with all different kinds of breeds. I volunteer at the Richmond SPCA in my spare time. I would love to be a part of your four-legged friends' life by helping walk, feed, play, and house-sit for you!

Sonya is absolutely amazing!! She has a great love for animals and ensuring that they are well taken care of. She has such a huge heart and truly treats dogs for the personalities that they are! Sonya was so sweet and loving towards Logan and he enjoyed every minute of time she spent with him. She would be an excellent choice for any pet parent.

Sonya was highly recommended to me by a friend to take my black and yellow labs on long walks, and I'm so glad he referred me to her because Sonya is nothing short of amazing! My dogs are super high energy and can be overwhelming for most people to handle, but Sonya knows exactly how to handle them, and get all their energy out before dropping them off at home. She is a lifesaver on days that I'm too busy to take my dogs to get the amount of exercise they need. She has also been my dog sitter for the past year about 3 times a week, and she has always been at least 10 minutes early! In one instance, Bobby, my older lab had a bout of gastritis while I had a work meeting all day. Bobby threw up all over the kitchen floor. By the time I got home expecting to find dog vomit everywhere, Sonya was already done cleaning!!! I feel that any anxiety about dog sitters has gone away with Sonya and I feel completely at ease leaving her with my dogs at home or letting her take them for long walks. Sonya always sends photos and videos during their walks so I can have peace of mind knowing their in good hands and having fun with other dogs. If you want to have a happier, well exercised and dog, definitely send them to Sonya! You won't regret it.

Sonya is one of the biggest dog lovers that I know! If given the chance, I know that she would rescue every dog that she could just so that they can have a loving home. It's that love for dogs that makes her someone that I can trust with my own. As an owner of three dogs, she is very experienced and knows how to balance care and fun. She is very knowledgeable! I've owned a dog for 9 years and she could still find a way to bring up new information. Sonya is one of the most hardworking and organized people that I know. If there were anyone I needed to watch my dog for a weekend, Sonya would be the first person I would ask!

Sonya is a really nice and caring person to everyone, especially to animals. I've noticed that she has a really special connection with animals that most people don't have. I would definitely choose her every time to take care of my dogs.
