Your Dog’s New Favorite Sitter

Hi! I’m Sophie, and I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of all ages, personalities, and energy levels. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, or just having a calm companion, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. I’m patient, reliable, and genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. In my free time, you’ll usually find me reading, hiking, and exploring the outdoor, so if your dog enjoys walks and adventures, we’ll get along great! I’m based in Duluth and have reliable transportation, so I’m happy to travel throughout the surrounding area. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I’ll treat your furry family member with the same love, attention, and care I’d want for my own. I look forward to meeting you and your pets!

Safety, trust & environment

I treat every pet as if they were my own. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos throughout each visit, and I’m always happy to communicate so you have peace of mind.

Pets

A typical day

Every pet is different, so I tailor each visit to their energy level and routine. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, games of fetch, sniffing around the neighborhood, or relaxing with plenty of cuddles, I’m happy to provide the care they need. With your permission, I’m also happy to visit local parks or dog parks for extra exercise and enrichment.

Before our first visit, I’d love to know about your pet’s routine, personality, favorite activities, any medications, dietary needs, fears, or behavioral quirks. The more I know, the better I can provide a safe, comfortable, and enjoyable experience. I also highly recommend a meet-and-greet beforehand so everyone can get acquainted and ensure it’s a great fit.
