Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog-lover with flexible schedule
I grew up around dogs, my family have always had rescues including from puppies, so I have a lot of personal experience with caring for medium to big sized dogs including those with behavioural issues / trauma. As an adult, I have continued to care for dogs and occasionally other animals too, for personal acquaintances and those found through sitting websites such as trusted housesitters. I recently returned to university to study physiotherapy so am not in a position to have my own dog, however would love to continue having contact with dogs by sitting for others.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I am happy to care for your pets in whichever way adheres to their normal routine as much as possible. Whether that is regular cuddles, walks, playing outside, grooming, etc., I am happy to be guided by you in this regard.
Ratings and reviews
Puzzle and Taggy were very happy when we got home last night, they'd had a lovely time with us away! Sophie was conscientious when she came for a meet-up, checking and noting down various details, and was good company taking Taggy on a trial walk. She provided us with photo updates whilst we were away, I was relaxed as the girls were obviously in capable hands. We didn't see Sophie on our return as our boat was delayed and we had suggested she go on home, but the house and dogs were in good order and I'd have no hesitation in recommending her.
Sophie was an absolute star looking after our two boys again! We were away for a total of 12 nights for our honeymoon and felt 100% safe in the knowledge that they were being looked after with a 5 star service. Regular updates, some lovely pictures and two happy doggies both in the house and out and about on walks. Would definitely recommend booking Sophie as you will be more than pleased with the experience. Thanks again Sophie and no doubt we will be booking again very soon :)
A brilliant first booking with Sophie. Great communication, lovely photos with both of our boys having the best time. We have already booked Sophie for another few trips we have planned so would definitely recommend. Thank you :)
Sophie has taken care of our dog Azkar plenty of times. He is really happy with her and im completely at easy leaving him with Sophie. I know Azkar was treated as one of the family. Will not hesitate to leave my furry friend with Sophie again.
Sophie looked after our mixed breed dog Goofy staying on our remote farm in Fuerteventura in the Canary Islands. She did a wonderful job in looking after him, including taking home for walks every day. I have no hesitation in recommending Sophie to anyone looking for a dog sitter.
