This is my second time I’ve utilized Sophia’s services and I’m very happy with her work. She consistently takes pictures on her walks and my boi Obi seems to love getting out with her. Will definitely be contacting her again.

Safety, trust & environment

My dog and cats safety at home are a high priority, I keep my home clean and free of anything they might chew or choke on. As well as all chemicals and other hazards showed away in cabinets they are unable to open. For my anxious dog I keep classical music on throughout the house to create a peaceful environment. Your pooch will feel at ease in my home and will always be watched and cared for. I make sure to send plenty of pictures and videos to update you on their mood and how their day is going. Nothing better than getting reassurance that your fur baby is in the best hands!! In your home I will watch them the entire time while they are playing and eating to make sure they are okay and haven’t gotten into any trouble.

Information Sophia G. would like to know about your pet

I would prefer dogs that are not aggressive and are friendly/tolerant towards dogs and cats as I have a dog and cat at home. (if they are being boarded at my home) Social or clingy dog/cat not required as every animal is different and not always wants to be around a new human. But if I get to see them I will certainly be so happy!

A typical day

My dog Bentley is very high energy and will play with your pooch until they are both reasonably tired. Usually followed by afternoon naps to Jazz music until we head out for an hour walk on my lunch break. After work depending on the weather go to the fenced dog park nearby for zoomies and fetch, or a long walk around the neighborhood to the Fox River. Fresh air and exercise several times a day for sure! We love to be outside. Let me know what your dog likes to do!

I work from home full time and have a highly social and playful dog. During the day your boarded babies will play with Bentley (my dog) and nap on the bed in my office to jazz and classical music. During my break I usually walk my dog midday or late afternoon. If your dog or cat is not boarded, after 11A I am free to pop over and check on your fur babies and spend some time with them.
