Availability

I’m currently a college student on summer break, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of free time to dedicate to pet care. Because of this, I’m able to give dogs lots of attention, playtime, walks, and companionship throughout the day rather than leaving them alone for long periods of time. Caring for dogs is something I genuinely enjoy, and I love making sure they feel comfortable, active, and loved while their owners are away.

Safety, trust & environment

I always want pets to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for whether they are staying in my home or I’m caring for them in a client’s home. At my home, I have a fenced-in yard where dogs can safely play, exercise, and spend time outside with supervision. I understand that every pet has different needs and routines, so I’m happy to follow any instructions the owner provides, including feeding schedules, walks, crate routines, medications, playtime, or specific house rules. My goal is to make pets feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible while giving owners peace of mind that their pets are in good hands.

Information Sophia H. would like to know about your pet

Before watching a pet, I like to know about their routine, personality, and any special needs so I can give them the best care possible. It’s helpful to know their feeding schedule, bathroom routine, exercise needs, favorite activities, medications, allergies, and how they interact with other people or animals. I also appreciate knowing about any anxieties, triggers, or behaviors to watch for so I can help your pet feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away.

A typical day

I love keeping pets active, happy, and comfortable while their owners are away! Depending on each pet’s personality and energy level, I enjoy going on walks, playing fetch, practicing simple tricks with treats, and giving lots of attention and cuddle time. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, loved, and entertained while sticking to their normal routine as much as possible.

Pets

Loving your dog like they're my own

Pet care experience

I’ve always had a genuine love for dogs and years of hands-on experience caring for them. I currently have two French Bulldogs and a Schnauzer, so I’m very familiar with different personalities, routines, and the daily care dogs need to feel comfortable and happy. Friends and family regularly trust me to dog sit because they know I treat every dog like my own. I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and energy levels, and I always make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Whether your dog loves playtime, walks, or just relaxing and getting attention, I’m happy to match their routine and provide plenty of care and affection.

Sophie was super responsive, flexible, and easy to work with. She clearly loves dogs and showered our shy little guy with attention and love. She set my grand daughter’s heart at ease with her care and consideration. We’ll definitely look to have Fergie spend more time with her the next time we’re in town.

Sophia is so kind! She was a wonderful sitter for our fur baby and we would definitely recommend her if you’re looking for someone reliable with good communication. We will definitely be repeat customers!
