As a college student with a flexible schedule, I have ample free time and gaps between classes, allowing me to fully dedicate myself to providing exceptional care for pets. My passion for animals drives me to offer the highest level of attention, whether it’s for daily walks, feeding, playtime, or administering any special care needed. I take great pride in ensuring pets feel safe, loved, and well-cared for, and I am committed to maintaining a consistent, reliable routine to meet their individual needs.

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow their specific routines and preferences to minimize stress and maintain consistency. I make sure to follow any dietary restrictions, administer medication if needed, and provide regular updates to owners, keeping them informed and at ease. I also make sure to give each pet plenty of attention, affection, and mental stimulation to keep them happy and engaged.

Information Sophia S. would like to know about your pet

To provide the best care possible, I kindly ask pet owners to share any important information about their pet's behavior, health, or specific needs ahead of time. This includes things like dietary restrictions, medications, anxiety triggers, reactivity around other animals or people, and any routines they’re used to. Knowing these details in advance helps me ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times.

A typical day

As a dog sitter, I focus on creating a fun, active, and enriching environment for every pup in my care. Whether we're heading to the beach for a walk, playing fetch at the park, or enjoying indoor games and activities, I make sure each dog stays engaged and happy. Even on days we stay inside, I keep things exciting with play sessions, training games, and plenty of love and attention.

Pet care experience

I am a 20-year-old college student with genuine, hands-on experience in pet care, having grown up caring for both dogs and cats. Over the years, I have provided attentive care, including walks, feeding, training, and general companionship. I have successfully trained three puppies in areas such as potty training, basic commands, and tricks. Additionally, I have experience caring for elderly and sick dogs, offering specialized attention such as changing diapers and assisting with feeding for those with difficulty eating. My background ensures that I provide compassionate, reliable, and personalized care for all pets, regardless of age or health condition.

Sophia did a great job taking care of our dog and house. She was very communicative and reliable throughout the process. She is a pleasure to work with and shows a great deal of care for our dog.

I’m grateful! I was instantly comfortable with Sophie! She was confident, which I find important when caring for my fur baby n grand pup! She kindly listen and follow through with whatever I asked! I certainly hope to be able to book her again before summer’s end! Most importantly, I could tell Butta & Chip liked Sophie too!
