Safety, trust & environment

When providing pet care in your home, I will be careful to follow all instructions meticulously. I understand that not all pets will require extensive attention, especially in their own space where they have an established routine and practices. I will try to disrupt these routines as little as possible, so that your pet has very little disruption to their every-day expectations.

Information Sophia A. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know the usual activity level of the dog, things that may scare or make the dog uncomfortable, their favorite places to play and go on walks, and how they act when they’re happy and feel safe. For cats, I like to know similar things: what is their usual activity level, how can I make them feel as safe as possible, and what is anything that may make them uncomfortable.

A typical day

I consider myself an active person and enjoy being outside, with either cats or dogs. I’ll play with them with their favorite toys and run around until we both drop! For less active dogs, I can provide short bursts of activity and longer periods of rest. For cats, I know activity is still important, but the activity level will depend on the cat.

Pet care experience

I have owned and cared for cats my entire life, and have extensive experience dog-sitting for friends and family. My goal is to provide stress-free care for your pet. I pride myself in my ability to anticipate a pet’s needs, and give them the space, respect, and attention that they require.

Sophia was wonderful! She was incredibly responsive, communicative, and flexible throughout the entire process. Most importantly, she was so kind and caring with my animals, which gave me real peace of mind. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful sitter.

Sophia is a skilled and reliable animal caretaker, and comes highly recommended by me and my cats. They absolutely adore her, and in turn she loves them like her own. She has a wealth of experience raising and training animals, and is overall an exceptionally responsible individual. You can trust that she will provide excellent care to your animals, with their health, happiness and well-being always in mind. I take comfort in knowing that my boys will be in compassionate, safe hands with Sophia while I am away.
