Information Sophia R. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog does not like being around other dogs for walks. Please be honest if your dog/cat has aggressive behavior. I would like to know if your dog/cat is nervous around new people. I also need to know about any allergies they have or medical attention needed.

A typical day

I pair well with energetic pets who like going on walks and adventures. I also love older and less active pets, as I am very calm and enjoy rest time. Either way I will make sure your pet’s needs are met! I love taking dogs on walks, adventures, and encouraging them to play. My favorite thing to do with my own dog is playing Tug-of-War with his toys. I will make sure your dog has fun and gets plenty of exercise.

Sophia was absolutely amazing! She took time to meet my pup ahead of the stay and then communicated and shared photos throughout the stay. She was beyond patient with Shadows needs, and navigated a challenging moment incredibly. She is a gem!

Sophie is so sweet! She saved our night out by swinging by on a last minute request to check on our pups. She's professional and prompt and the pups love her!
