Loving and caring dog walker/sitter
Pet care experience
I am my friends’ go-to caretaker for their pups, and everyone in my circle knows how much I love them! I grew up with dogs and I currently live with and help take care of my roommate’s dog, Stevie! I have experience in dog walking, sitting overnight, bathing, and of course, feeding, so I am willing to do any of these for your pup while also making time for belly scratches and lots of playtime. I have taken care of dogs both big and small, old and young. I am an outgoing and energetic dog person who has grown up with a love for them since childhood. I would love to help care for yours!
Reviews
Sophia was amazing with tinsel, we would rebook her any time! She was super responsive, gave great updates and it was such a comfort to know our kitten was being loved on while we were away.
We searched and searched for the right person to help us with our dog Rascal, and Sophia turned out to be that person! Sophia is energetic, very friendly, and always on time! We love her, our dog loves her, and shes obviously got a way with animals! I highly recommend her!
Sophia has looked after our dog Rascal for many years and she is great with him! She loves dogs and she told me she helped train a service dog by spending a day at Disney World with him taking him on rides and other socializing activities. I highly recommend Sophia as a caring, highly competent dog sitter/walker/caretaker.
Sophia truly has a love for animals. Whether it be a neighbors dog or our pet hamster she is always the first one to give them love and attention. Sophia has a big heart and there's no one I would trust more with the care of my animals.

Safety, trust & environment
I will follow the owners’ leads first, in terms of safety. If your dog is more reactionary towards others on walks, I will take the quieter paths and find every opportunity to keep the safety or your pup and others in check. Aside from what you outline to me as the owner, I will air on the side of caution and take every necessary precaution.
Information Sophia F. would like to know about your pet
I am comfortable with any breed. Mainly, I would like to know their temperament and energy level prior to sitting for or walking them. But I’ve taken care of dogs as small as Dachshunds and as big as Great Danes!
A typical day
Playtime is not just good for your pup’s stimulation, but it’s also so much fun for me! I’ll play with them with their favorite toys, give them lots of belly rubs and a treat or two (depending on their advised diet). I am more than happy to bring your dog to parks should that be something you request!

Availability
I work a (mostly) 9-6 job that is hybrid remote and flexible, especially for dog walking! I would flex my workload based on the needs of the pups in my care.
