Pet care experience
Hello! I've had experience working with animals since I was a child-I grew up next to a horse farm and am comfortable with many 4- legged furry friends. I grew up in a house with cats- but I also love dogs! My goal is to eventually own a house with chickens, goats, dogs and cats. When I was in college I was able to volunteer with the local humane society, which I loved. I have been dog sitting for the last few years and love it. I wish I could have a dog right now, but my lease doesn't allow it right now. I am able to provide walks, drop in visits and house sitting (at your house). I am unfortunately unable to keep your pet at my house due to having 2 cats of my own! I have experience with small dogs (around 5 lbs) to big dogs (up to 100 lbs). I am able to provide dog walking services as well as overnight dog sitting. I hope I can be a good fit for you and your dog or cat!
Reviews
Sophia is the best!! She initially was our nanny and soon also became our dog sitter. We don't trust anyone with our dogs, a Chocolate Lab and American Bulldog. The Bulldog has a particular personally and also was on quite a few meds with speciality food. Sophia always took great care of him, getting him to eat and take his meds. She is great with dogs and children alike! Sophia is extremely professional, mature and trustworthy. I would recommend her to anyone.
Sophia has been a reliable and cheerful "caregiver" for our English Golden, Sadie. Over the past few years, we've been able to schedule walks, feedings and care for Sadie with ease and confidence. Our dog is always happy to see Sophia and we are comforted, knowing she is lovingly cared for in our absence.
Hello! Sophia watched my 50lb dog, kona, and fluffy cat, Winnie, on multiple occasions from a weekend trip to full week vacations. Sophia was very responsive and responsible, answering all my texts/calls and keeping me updated daily on my beloved pets -even sending pictures!. She not only fed and walked my pets but really took the time to make them feel loved and gave them extra attention while we were out of town. I highly recommend her for any and all obligations while you are out-of-town!
Sophia is the most gentle person I know! She is very caring not only to people but furry-friends, too. As her sister, we've grown up with cats our whole life. Outside of the house, almost all of our neighbors owned dogs so we spent a big chunk of our childhood playing, walking, and snuggling with pups, too. One of our neighbors doesn't take their dog out as much as they probably should (shhh...), but Sophia often asked if she could take their beautiful golden retriever out on adventures. She's dealt with not-so-well behaved dogs (jumping, barking, running off) and handles those situations well while keeping the dog as in control as she can. This past summer she did a lot of dog sitting for a local family with a tame chocolate lab and an older dog that needed special attention (with medication, feeding, and a special type of food) and the family was always happy when they returned home with how well the dogs were taken care of. Her best friend also got a new puppy this summer, and she's spent time hanging out with her friend and puppy by attending beach walks and casual neighborhood walks together.
