Availability
I work remotely full-time on EST hours, so I’m usually free after 3pm on weekdays. That said, I’m also very comfortable working from a client’s home during the day to provide pet care. My job encourages regular breaks, so I can step away for walks, feedings, or check-ins as needed. I’m also an early riser, so I’m happy to help with morning care too. My flexible schedule makes it easy to give your pet the attention they need throughout the day.

Safety, trust & environment
I prioritize creating a calm, safe, and comfortable environment for every pet I care for. While I can’t host pets in my own home, I offer walks, drop-in visits, and overnight stays in your home, where your pet already feels secure and at ease. I live right by Mission Bay in San Diego, so I’m very familiar with safe walking routes and nearby dog-friendly areas. I always use secure leashes/harnesses, stay alert on walks, and follow your pet’s specific routine and energy level. During drop-ins or overnight stays, I make sure your home stays clean, secure, and well cared for, and I’ll keep your pet’s feeding, play, and rest schedule consistent. Building trust is key, so I’m happy to provide updates, photos, and regular communication to keep you at ease while you're away.
Information Sophia G. would like to know about your pet
It’s really helpful to know your pet’s daily routine, personality, and any quirks ahead of time! I’d love to learn about: - Feeding schedule and dietary needs - Temperament around new people, other pets, or on walks - Medical conditions, medications, or allergies - Comfort with things like stairs, crates, or being alone - Favorite toys, treats, and calming techniques - Any specific do’s or don’ts you follow The more I know, the better I can keep your pet happy, comfortable, and safe while you're away!
A typical day
A typical day with me is all about keeping your pet happy, active, and relaxed. For dogs, that might mean a morning walk around the neighborhood or a fun outing to Mission Bay (right near where I live!), followed by some playtime or cuddles depending on their energy level. I make sure walks are safe and enriching, whether it's letting them sniff around or getting in a good trot. For cats, I focus on keeping their routine consistent: feeding, cleaning the litter box, and engaging them with their favorite toys or just relaxing company if they’re more low-key. I always take the time to learn what each pet enjoys and adjust to their needs. Throughout the day, I provide companionship, stimulation, and plenty of affection, plus regular check-ins and photo updates for you, so you always know how your pet is doing.

Responsible, Active Dog Lover in SD
Pet care experience
Hi! I’m Sophia, a San Diego based dog lover who enjoys spending time outdoors and making sure pups get plenty of exercise, attention, and care. I may not be a full-time professional dog sitter, but I’ve spent years caring for dogs for friends, family, and neighbors. I understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone you trust, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m reliable, communicative, and attentive to each dog’s routine and personality. Whether your puppy loves long walks, playtime, or relaxing at home, I’m happy to match their energy and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. You can expect: - Regular updates and photos - Plenty of walks and playtime - A calm, safe, and attentive environment - Respect for your dog’s routine and needs I live an active lifestyle and love getting outside, so your dog will get lots of movement, attention, and affection. I love taking dogs on long walks around the neighborhood or to nearby parks so they can get plenty of exercise and stimulation. Looking forward to meeting you and your pup!

Reviews
We have had Sophia walk our dogs several times and she is great! On time, dependable and our dogs are in perfect shape when we return. She always sends a picture or two as well. I highly recommend!
Sophia is great! She is very understanding of changing situations and so accommodating. We've used her services before and look forward to asking her again. Definitely recommend!
Sophia is great! She was very accommodating, even with last minute changes. Not only did she do exactly as we asked but went above and beyond to make sure the dogs were comfortable. I would hire her again for sure!
Sophia was like a second mom to my cat, Luna, throughout our college years! In our shared college household, I could always count on Sophia to give Luna her meals, refresh her water, clean her box, and give her lots of love and attention. Sophia is a natural animal lover and empath! Any pet parent would be lucky to have Sophia care for their pet. :)
