Pet care experience
Hello, my name is Sophia. My family and I enjoy pet sitting one dog at a time. This is more of a fun hobby and not something we do as a business. We are busy with our full time jobs and 3 kids. We do not take unneutered dogs, dogs that could jump our fence, dogs that have little to no training, or dogs that have extremely high energy. We schedule a meet and greet before agreeing to watch your dog so that you can see our house and we can answer any questions that either of us may have. My husband works from home, so dogs who stay will be able to go outside as needed. We also try to take a walk every night as well. That being said, we can’t watch high energy dogs who need a lot of attention. I can work with some special needs animals. Please talk to me about what it is that they need and I’ll see if I can accommodate that. I currently have a senior dog and 3 cats. My dog is very old and just likes to be left alone. My cats tend to hide in the bedrooms most of the time, but I do need to ensure any dogs that are visiting will not want to harm them. We understand that we are not the best fit for everyone. We enjoy being able to meet a new furry friend here and there that will work best with our family. Feel free to message me and we will see if we could be a good fit.
Reviews
Our 9 yr old pup always LOVES going to Sophia's house! She has so much fun with her family!
Sophia was very responsive to messages. She provided picture updates. Her whole family treated our Teddy like a member of the family. I will not hesitate to use her boarding services in the future. My anxiety was relieved knowing he is the only dog doing the boarding and they have a fenced yard.
Sophia was very responsive to messages! She gave me an update when I checked on my dog and I felt like her and her family were very capable in caring for him. She gave him his allergy medications and tried to ease his nervousness.
Our girl is always excited to go to Sophia's house! They welcome her with so much love and excitement every time! I know she is always well taken care of and comes home after a weekend completely exhausted in a good way!

I have a large backyard that is fully fenced in. Dogs are welcome to run and play back there. I also try to walk either in the mornings or evenings too, so if your dog likes to walk I can take them with.
Home
Information Sophia H. would like to know about your pet
Any information you can provide about your dog ahead of time is helpful, like eating or treat preferences, potty schedule, etc. Two huge deal breaks for us are if your dog will jump our fence or if they have accidents/mark in our house. We can try to make certain accommodations work, depending on what needs your pet has.
