Happy Caretaker for Happy Paws!
Pet care experience
Hi! My name is Sophie! I graduated from Temple University in Philadelphia, PA in May 2022, and animals have been a massive part of my entire life. Our animals are not just our companions, but members of our family. I want to make sure your baby feels as at home with me as they would with you!! I have experience with senior dogs, as I had my dog Fred from when he was 5 to 19! Handling several dogs at once is not a problem, and I have no problem holding control and making sure that your dogs will stay safe and happy. My experience with anxious nerves in animals is abundant, and I don't mind sitting and waiting for your pup or kitty to take some time to sniff! I take pride in my soft heart in caring for abused and adopted dogs. My previous animals have experienced neglect, and I am very aware of how to approach and take care of nervous and timid animals. I am always very gentle and careful with every dog I meet; every animal is special in their own perfect way! I can’t wait to meet you and your furry little baby!
Reviews
Sophie could not have been better. She sent photos and I can tell my cats adored her. So incredibly grateful for how awesome she was!
Sophie took excellent care of our 3 kitties. I could tell she was super sweet to them and even my shyest cat snuggled up to her. She also was very communicative and let me know my one older cat got her pill everyday. I had such peace of mind on vacation knowing my kitties were happy and well cared for.
Sophie is literally the best. She is so professional as well and keeps great communication. She took such great care of my Rita and I am so bummed she moved.
Sophie is the best!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
At your home I will do whatever you need me to do to make sure that your animal is comfortable and safe (along with tons and tons of love). Give me instructions as specific as you want; they will be followed to a T!
Information Sophie D. would like to know about your pet
I would like to know: Is your animal friendly with other dogs/cats? What is your animal's personality like? What is your dog’s walking style? **We can always set up a meet-and-greet and discuss these topics in person if preferred (I love to do meet-ups!) All of these details are crucial to making sure I give them the best specified care possible, and keep them happy as can be!
A typical day
I love to go on walks through parks with your pup, trying new routes and making sure they get the chance to go to the bathroom before heading back inside. I will make sure they get plenty of exercise and attention by playing with toys and receiving unconditional love. I love rolling around on the floor and having a good play!! If your cat has a favorite toy/game, just let me know and we can play all day!

Currently, I am working in healthcare and will have more than enough time during my off days, before work, and on weekends to come see your animals. Just shoot me a message or make a booking and we can figure out a perfect time; I'm extremely flexible and understanding!
