Safety, trust & environment

On walks I am careful to learn about the dogs needs and behaviors, and will happily customize our route to fit them (weather, temperature, reactivity, etc...). I am happy to come and stay with your animal in their home and space so that they can be more comfortable!

Information Sophia L. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know anything about your dog that may need special attention. I have lots of experience with special needs dogs, elderly dogs, and reactive/aggressive behavior and am completely happy to tailor their experience, I just need to know in advance. Thanks!!

A typical day

Your animals routine will be followed in the morning regarding wake up, bathroom and feeding time. We will then go on a stimulating sniff walk or a power walk, depending on the energy needs. I know good shaded routes for walking and parks for playing. Then we will play and get brushed!

Pet care experience

I have worked with animals of all types since I was a child! We have always had dogs (German Shepherds, Queensland Healers, Havanese, Terriers) and I have learned to love and care for them all. I was also raised around horses and cats. I am a teacher during the school year and love to work with animals on the side. I am a very active person who loves to run, backpack, etc, and so I am looking to add more movement to my summer, hopefully with your dog! I have taken training classes with my own dog, and have worked with other aggressive and reactive behavior, and can take the necessary precautions if your animal struggles with the same. I love to play, snuggle and brush, and look forward to sending you lots of pictures and videos of your little one!

Sophia was amazing with our cats, Willow and Binx. She was reliable, caring, and kept us updated while we were away. We came home to two happy cats and would highly recommend her as a pet sitter. Thank you, Sophia!

Sofia housesat our two dogs for 16 nights. We initially met her months prior and we kept in touch monthly. A couple days prior, she came over for an hour and we went through all the instructions. While we were away, she regularly updated us and ensured we got home without delay. Sofia is very reliable, an effective communicator and provided us with invaluable peace of mind that our dogs and home was being taken care of. Thank you Sofia! We look forward to working with you again!

Sophia is amazing!! She takes such great care of our pup (and home) while we were away. We're so grateful for how attentive, responsive, and caring she is and our pup absolutely adores her :)

Sophia was absolutely amazing when it came to both house and dog-sitting. She was so attentive to and understanding with our reactive dog Riley and was so great about maintaining Riley’s routine while we were away. She’s incredibly responsive and we loved all the photos she sent us. I cannot think of a better person to care for Riley and no question we’ll be booking with Sophia again when needed! 🥰
