Highlights
Pet care experience
Sophia the student sitter!
I have had my own dogs since I was 5 years old, so I am intimately familiar with caring for pups (grooming, feeding, giving medications, walking, playing, training). I also spent almost all of high school volunteering at the Durham County Animal Shelter, where I interacted with all kinds of dogs (walking, playing, providing enrichment) and cared for cats (cleaning cages, socializing). I have been petsitting professionally for 5 years, and have learned a ton interacting with all kinds of pets and situations!
Cat care experience
Sophia also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.

Safety, trust & environment
When in your home, I ensure any directions given are followed to the best of my ability and double check everything is done correctly before I leave. I’m not hesitant to ask questions when needed! I double check doors on my way out, and for walks ensure everything is fitted correctly. I have a leash-reactive dog myself, so I am comfortable redirecting or moving away from a situation that could escalate.
Ratings and reviews
Great job! Sophia was dependable and great with our crazy little dachshund. Would definitely use again.
Sophia took wonderful care of our two dogs and our home while we were away. One of our dogs got sick while we were gone and she went above and beyond to communicate the situation and give him extra love and attention. I would definitely recommend Sophia and hope we can use her again!
Sophia was great. She was easy to communicate with, shared plenty of updates, asked for and followed our normal routine, and left our house spotless. We’ll happily use her again and would highly recommend her to others looking for someone to house/pet sit.
Sophia was very responsive and attentive to our animals. Highly recommend
Sophia was an amazing pet sitter for our dogs, Dan and Helen, this past weekend! She kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us peace of mind. The dogs clearly loved her, and we came home to two very happy pups. Super reliable, caring, and communicative — highly recommend!
Sophia did wonderful with my pup Ivy & her communication was great. I felt like she cared for Ivy as she would her own dogs and would definitely have her watch Ivy again!

Schedule
I am a college sophomore, so my schedule is pretty flexible. I am available throughout the week and most weekends for walks, drop-ins, and house-sitting during the school year.
