Pet care experience
Making animals smile, wiggle, purr, & nuzzle since 1998 ☺️ If you're looking for hours of play/stimulation for your rascal during your busy workday -- this is the place! I grew up around all sorts of animals and was given responsibilities to care and train my pets early on at around 7 years old (benefits of having a Russian mother). Over the years, this has evolved into sharing my intuitive connection with animals through horse-back competitions, volunteering at the humane society, and training my cat and dog to be completely off-leash (yep, you read that right. I walk around the neighborhood with my cat and dog trailing me 😆). I love picking up on animals' quirks and speaking their language, whether that means more/less cuddles, roughhousing, tonality, etc. I nerd out over animal body language and attribute many of my skills to Zak George as well as the book series "The Dog/Puppy Whisperer: A Compassionate, Nonviolent Approach to Dog Training."
Reviews
Great photos and a happy dog. Thanks.
Sonia and Eyre are just amazing. Lucy has such high energy and she loved playing with Eyre!
Sonia is absolutely incredible with her pets. She treats their furry companions with the utmost respect, affection, and attention, ensuring that they are always well-fed, properly exercised, and given plenty of playtime and love. Sonia is also vigilant about their pets' health and safety including going out of their way to create a comfortable, stimulating environment for their pets and ample time for socialization with other animals. It is evident that she considers their pets to be an integral part of their family and goes above and beyond to provide them with an exceptionally happy and healthy life. I have no doubt that any pet under Sonia's care is truly lucky to have such a dedicated and loving owner.
Sonia is a magnificent person who treats all dogs with respect, compassion, and love. Her playful personality is contagious, and her dog Eyre is one of the most lovable fur balls on the planet. They both are incredibly empathetic and deeply enjoy meeting new humans and animals alike.

Is there a history of aggression or resource guarding? How is your dog with cats? How does your dog deal with separation anxiety with you?
A typical day
I am an 8min walk from Louisville's Community dogpark, which I frequent often. Besides my Aussie being an awesome playmate, I have dozens of superchewer toys to choose from and may indulge your dog in some balloon volleyball.

I work remotely during the week and have a flexible enough schedule to take frequent potty/play breaks. My home is big and cozy enough to accommodate new furry friends!
