Pet care experience

Works from home 🐾 acres of paths!

Lifelong dog owner with decades of experience caring for dogs both big and small. I work from home and am able to provide plenty of companionship and exercise. Boarders or daycare get ample walks and outdoor time, dozens of photos, and lots of love of course! I provide toys, bowls, a dog bed, treats, poop bags and a backup leash. A tired dog is a good dog :) feel free to bring your pet’s crate if you’d like! I grew up with border collies and labs, then rescued my own dogs in adulthood. One of my rescues was a very sick 3-month old puppy that I raised, so I am well-versed with puppy care. I do not currently have pets living in the home, so your dogs will have the run of the place. I own my own home on a quiet circle street. My yard is expansive with adjacent miles of mowed walking paths When a visit starts, I like to take the dogs on a “Welcome Walk” to get acquainted in neutral outdoor space. I prioritize safety and clear communication (with owners and dogs!) to create a comfortable experience for all. I look forward to taking care of your wonderful pets!

Sophia did a wonderful job taking care of my dog, Louie. He’s stayed with her before and I could tell he was happy and well taken care of. She kept me very updated while I was away, which I really appreciated. I highly recommend Sophia to trust with your furry friends.

We have been using Rover for about a decade in three different states. Sophia is the best we have ever dealt with. Ten stars on communication, attentiveness, and just obvious plain love for dogs. Her son is adorable and so sweet. We were actually afraid our boy would not want to come home with us. The environment she provides is also top shelf. We never had ANY concern about our loved one's care. Top notch sitter. Bravo Sophia !! Sincerely, Chris & Peggy Bella

Sofia kept me posted on what and how my dog was doing, Althea, a 4 year old Labradoodle (who looks like a chocolate lab) Althea was in great shape and happy when I picked her up. I would definitely use Sophie again, and highly recommend her!

I work from home, so I am flexible for drop-ins, last-minute needs, or regular walks, and can give your dog consistent companionship…and some fun of course! Rain or shine, I am happy to take them out.

Safety, trust & environment

I provide a treats (if allowed), a dog bed, bowls, toys and backup leash (but I prefer you bring the leash your dog is familiar with!). Please feel free to bring a crate if you’d like to crate your dog! When a visit starts, I like to take the dogs on “Welcome Walk” where we get acquainted in the great outdoors. This allows me to build our bond in neutral space with plenty of positive stimulation for the dogs. I prioritize safety and clear communication (with owners and dogs!) to create a comfortable experience for all. I have used the clicker training method in the past, and do not believe in any form of domineering or physical correction. Your dog will have a stable experience here!

A typical day

Multiple walks a day either around my neighborhood or a neighboring large field that has a miles of walking paths. Lots of play and tons of cuddles.
