Availability

I am available for drop-ins in the evening (after 6pm) and one-off dog care - though I do not currently offer a regular slot. I am well suited to cat sitting in the home for animals who are used to an owner who works full-time, and happy to discuss longer sitting stays.

Safety, trust & environment

I am a calming presence the animals I care for, and tend to find that they are quickly comfortable and relaxed in my presence. I prefer to build a longer relationship with the pets I care for, in order that I can recognise their needs and notice any changes more effectively.

Information Sophie D. would like to know about your pet

Ideally I would be aware of basic information (name, age, history of ownership etc), likes, dislikes, specific routines, and a realistic indication of the level of interaction a pet will need in order to feel happy.

A typical day

I can provide a quiet or playful coexistence to allow an animal to feel calm in the absence of their owner, responding to individual needs.

Pet care experience

I am committed to cultivating a safe, homely environment for pets while their owners are away, and am very happy to discuss individual pets' specific needs as much as I can accommodate on my current schedule. I like to ensure that both pet and owner feel relaxed in their times out of routine, and am happy to provide the odd extra job such as watering the houseplants. I am currently working in healthcare Mon-Fri 9-5, so will not be able to provide care during these hours. To discuss times outside of these hours, please get in touch. Note that whilst I do provide house sitting, I will not be available during the daytime so will not suit the needs of those needing attention throughout the day.

Sophie is our regular cat (and fish) sitter because she’s great. I’m always thrilled when she’s able to sit. Our cats love her!

Sophie is our favourite cat sitter and I’ll always recommend her. She sends detailed updates everyday with photos. Our cats are always relaxed with her and she doesn’t just feed and go, she stays with them and brushes them etc. also cleans up any mess and waters my plants. Couldn’t be happier :)

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
