Highlights
Pet care experience
Excited to meet your furry friends!
I’ve had a lifelong love for animals and a natural connection with both dogs and cats and bring over 8 years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. From energetic puppies who need structure and playtime to senior pets who need patience and comfort, I know how to adapt to each animal’s unique needs. At home, I share life with my goofy golden retriever and a sassy tuxedo cat, who both love other animals. My approach is calm, reliable, and intuitive, I take the time to make every pet feel safe, loved, and understood. I can help with training, daily walks, or providing company while you’re away, and I’ll treat your pets like family and keep you updated every step of the way.

Ratings and reviews
Sophia was a great sitter for my 1-year-old puppy Maple for 10 days! Her dog and cat are friendly and adorable and Maple liked having four-legged friends to play with. Sophia sent pictures of Maple out at parks and playing and relaxing with her furry buddies almost every day. She was flexible and understanding when our return flight was delayed and we had to pick Maple up after 11pm. Maple came home tired and happy and clean and clearly well cared for.
Always great to have Sophia watch my husky, she always goes the extra mile and was even able to accommodate my flight mixup.
Sophia always takes the best care of my dog. They have the perfect environment for pet sitting, with a big backyard for the dogs to play and nature nearby! I always know when I leave town Sophia will go above and beyond to take care of my husky Cia. Highly recommend!
Sophia was great!! My dog loved staying with them and they had a perfect setup with a backyard and plenty of fun to be had with cosmo. Would highly recommend!
Sophia watched our dog Zoey for 4 nights and Zoey had a blast with her and Cosmo! We got plenty of updates throughout her stay and we got back to a very tired pup. We were thrilled to have Sophia watch our furbaby and will definitely use her again in the future. Highly recommend!
Sophia has been amazing with my animals. She knows that our animals are family members to us and we only want the best care for them and she provides that care. They are so happy to see her! Very trustworthy and reliable

Schedule
I work from home so have flexibility in my daily routine. Most afternoons and evenings in particular work well for me for any type of care.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in yours, I focus on creating an environment that matches each animal’s personality and comfort level. I have plenty of engaging ways to channel energy for playful or high energy pets, through walks, games, training reinforcement, or enrichment toys while also providing patience and affection for mellow or cuddly companions who prefer a slower pace. I will treat your pets and your home with the same respect I would give mine!

A typical day
A typical day with me balances fun, structure, and comfort. I have a large yard and a nearby park for walks, fetch, and play to keep dogs active and happy. Plus, my dog Cosmo, is always up for a play companion. For cats, I focus on enrichment and respecting their mood, interactive toys, gentle play, or cozy quiet time depending on how they are feeling. I love finding little ways to challenge their minds and make every pet feel safe, understood, and loved throughout the day.

- Let me know your pet’s quirks and non-negotiables so I can cater my care specifically to them and help them feel safe and understood while you’re away. Every animal is different, and knowing their routines, preferences, and boundaries helps me make their time with me as comfortable and stress-free as possible.
