Pet care experience

Your dogs new favourite human! 🐾

Hi i’m Sophie! 👋🏼 I have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. My journey began with my own family dog, Kobi, a big-hearted 60kg German Shepherd. I was closely involved in his daily care, including walks, feeding, playtime, training basics, and of course plenty of cuddles. I went to university and continued my love for dogs by volunteering through a local dog sitting and walking platform. During this time, I cared for several dogs including a German Shepherd, Bulldog, Labrador, and Golden Retriever. My responsibilities ranged from overnight stays and house sitting to drop-in visits and daily walks. Looking after these dogs was probably the highlight of my university experience. 😆 Over the years, my family and I became well known in our village as big dog lovers, and we began receiving regular requests from local families to dog sit. We have since cared for dogs from five different families. As I work from home, I was always closely involved, providing consistent company, playtime, and attentive care. On a personal level, friends and their families have got to know truly how much I love dogs, and I have also provided dog sitting and drop-in visits for multiple friends’ dogs. While my family isn’t quite ready to welcome another dog, we absolutely love having them around and treating them like part of the family. I particularly love offering pet care services like this because I understand how difficult it can be to leave your dog, if just for the day, or how heartbreaking it can feel to drop them off at kennels whilst you’re travelling, and how much worry that can cause. Being able to offer an alternative where dogs can stay in their own familiar environment, or at least be with a trusted person who is consistently there for them means a great deal to me. I love building bonds with every dog I meet and making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! ❤️

Safety, trust & environment

When caring for dogs in their own homes, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress free as possible. I follow all feeding, walking, and care instructions closely, spend plenty of time with them throughout the day, and make sure they feel safe, settled, and loved while you’re away. Working from home allows me to provide consistent company, attention, playtime, and reassurance, helping your dog feel comfortable with a familiar routine and a trusted presence in their own space.

We had Sophie care for our dog overnight, while we were away to celebrate our anniversary. Juno absolutely loved his time with Sophie. She’s so caring, understanding and had the most respect for our dog and our house. We can’t wait to welcome Sophie back again. She kept our home spotless too, which wasn’t expected but definitely appreciated. 1000% happy with choosing Sophie to look after our dog and would definitely choose her again in any instant that we need a dog sitter. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter

Sophie is amazing with Tilly and knowing she is in safe hands makes me feel a lot better. We book Sophie any time we need help with Tilly and she is always amazing and Tilly adores her. So glad we found Sophie.

Schedule

At the moment, I am best suited to house sitting, including day care and overnight stays. This allows me to keep dogs company throughout the day while also working from home, ensuring they receive plenty of attention, companionship, and a calm, reassuring presence. I am unfortunately required in my office on Mondays. But can currently offer Tuesday-Sunday sits!

Sophie can host up to 1 pet per night
I always ask owners to share as much information as possible about their dog ahead of time so I can tailor the sit to their individual needs. Whether your dog is high-energy and thrives on extra playtime, or more anxious and prefers a calm, relaxed environment, I’m happy to adjust my routine to suit them. Please also let me know if your dog has any special needs or is a senior. While I haven’t yet cared for dogs with these specific needs, I’m more than willing to take this on with clear guidance and instructions to ensure your dog feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for.
