I’m currently working as a freelance photographer, which gives me a very flexible schedule. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I’m often out walking anyway, so I’m looking for some furry friends to join me on my walks in my spare time. This flexibility means I can accommodate different times and adapt to each dog’s routine. Whether that’s regular daily walks or occasional care. With my background in photography, owners can expect regular photo and message updates so you can see how your pet is getting on and feel confident they’re happy and well cared for while you’re away.

Safety, trust & environment

I always prioritise a pet’s safety, comfort and routine whether I’m caring for them in my own home or in the owner’s home. I follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walking preferences and any specific needs or behaviours. I make sure dogs are walked safely, kept on leads where required, and given plenty of attention and reassurance.

Pet care experience

I’ve been looking after dogs since I was 14 years old, caring for friends’, family’s and neighbours’ dogs on a regular basis. My experience includes daily walks, feeding, bathing, playtime, and providing lots of attention and companionship. At the beginning of 2025, I travelled to Australia where I looked after multiple dogs through house sits, giving me experience caring for dogs in different environments and routines. I’m a very outdoorsy person, so dogs in my care will enjoy varied walks through parks, trails and green spaces rather than the same route every day. I’m happy to adapt to each dog’s needs, whether that’s long energetic walks for active dogs or slower and gentler walks for older or less mobile dogs. My priority is always making sure each dog feels safe, comfortable and well cared for.

Sophie was brilliant with our dogs, cat and hens! They were very happy and chilled when we returned. The house was clean and tidy and she had even washed all the bedlinen. She looked after plants and seedlings in the greenhouse as well which was a bonus. Highly recommended. Thank you Sophie.

Victor our shy dog, took to Sophie immediately. They both had a lovely time with her and we got photos throughout the day so we could see they were enjoying themselves. Would definitely ask Sophie to sit for us again.

We had a fantastic experience with Sophie, who stayed at our home for two nights recently. She was incredibly responsible and attentive from start to finish, giving us complete peace of mind while we were away. Most importantly, she took such great care of our dog, Zeus. It was clear she genuinely cared about him—he was happy, relaxed, and well looked after when we returned. She kept to his routine, gave him plenty of attention, and treated him like her own. On top of that, she left our home spotless. We wouldn’t hesitate to book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and respectful sitter.

We are so lucky to have found Sophie she is a god send. Boris our cocker spaniel loved her immediately & brought her his soft toy, a sign that he likes someone, it was immediate. Sophie had the knack of really understanding Boris’s character and they quickly formed a bond. Sophie even took Boris for a doggie day out and a new walk which he clearly loved. Sophie carried out all our instructions and the house was left immaculately clean & tidy. We received photos and messages every day, which we loved to receive. We will definitely use Sophie again and cannot recommend her highly enough. Sophie is definitely Boris’s new best friend.
