About Sophia C.
Communication
Dog skills
Cat skills
Safety, trust & environment
I balance out the owner's preferences, strictly following a provided caresheet, (day or night, how many hours etc) and feel out what the animal needs emotionally (are they anxious, high energy or prefer to sit at a distance for company) so that everyone is a happy camper. By default, I tend to take 1-2 pictures per day/service - if you want more or less just let me know! For house-sitting cats, litter management is always included! (unless specifically requested not to). For house-sitting dogs, walks are included! ( NOTE: This does not apply to drop-ins )
Information Sophia C. would like to know about your pet
I'd love to know any stressors for the dog, what they like/dislike (places they prefer to visit on their walks), and any behavior patterns (jumping, barking). Also, if the dog has stomach issues, medication, or a special diet. For cats, the same. A care sheet for longer stays/drop-ins is required with details on food/litter/vet/Wi-Fi.
A typical day
I try to find less distracting areas to walk dogs (the outer rim of parks or quieter parts of the neighborhood) or parks at empty hours. I also love to work with the dog's current roster of tricks and training. Please let me know all tricks they know! I love cuddling with cats, hanging out with them in their favorite spots and playing with them whichever way they love best.

Trustworthy Furbaby Caretaker
Pet care experience
I'm a trustworthy, patient person with over 7 years of experience with pet care. I specialize in cat sitting and am familiar with handling anxious animals. I've worked with cats and am very respectful of their space and needs. I've also have puppy and Boston Terrier experience so I understand how unevenly tempered or high-energy dogs, might behave. I'm a kind, supportive rock which helps me do what is needed for the furbaby. I am also TNR certified and am a community cat caretaker. For your home I also aim to go the extra mile in keeping it clean, orderly and managed. You can be rest assured that any problems will be handled swiftly and with constant communication with you.

Reviews
sophia gave me great piece of mind for the few days i had to go away. she gave great updates and it sounded like my cat really liked her visits. i would totally request her again!
Sophia is great! Lots of photos and good updates. She took great care of my elderly cat who needs medicine and lots of attention.
Sophia was incredible with our 2 Boston terriers. She took time to listen and understand the specifics with one of our Boston terriers and all of his allergies and meds needed. Couldn’t be more appreciative of her cleanliness and how happy the pups were under her care!
Sophia was very friendly and willing to work with unexpected situations. Our pup was very happy when we came home, the cats were calm, and we had nothing to clean up, which is always a plus!
