Experienced, reliable, attentive

Pet care experience

An enthusiastic animal lover with lots of experience here. I am a graduate student and college instructor who these days mostly works from home (I teach online) and seriously enjoys spending time with furry friends. I love long or short walks, either around the neighborhood or on the trails, and although dogs are my specialty, I have experience caring for cats, birds, horses, fish, turtles, bunnies, and even a couple of snakes. All pets are wonderful in their own way, and I'm here to tend to THEIR needs, give them loving attention, and support their owners in any way I can. When caring for other people's pets, I treat each job with great respect, listening carefully to your animal's habits and preferences, and accommodating them accordingly. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Sophie was fantastic doing drop in visits for my two kitties! She was kind and patient with them during the meet and greet and sent photos each time she was over for a check in. I really appreciate Sophie’s care with my pets and house. Thank you, Sophie!

Sophie E was the only person I would ask to babysit our dogs and cats. She's patient, fair, and affectionate. She treated our babies, our desires for how we wanted our babies to be treated, and our house with respect. Sophie made herself at home when we asked her to petsit, which helped the whole house to settle down when we were gone. And Sophie is NOT shy when it comes to getting your dogs out and around: long walks, multiple walks, city walks, bosque walks, mountain hikes, river swims, you name it, she's game! The dogs, and we, were very appreciative!

Sophie is a fantastic choice for dog-care, as she truly understands and empathizes with canines in all their particulars and peculiarities. I've been amazed by her ability to look after my neurotic, high-energy coonhound and do so with seemingly effortless grace. Moreover, my hound bonded with Sophie, an unusual occurrence as my dog tends to be socially awkward, to put it mildly. Not only would I request Sophie's services the next time I need a dog-sitter, but I would also whole-heartedly and enthusiastically recommend her to anyone looking for quality dog-care filled with TLC.

Sophie house sat for me for 4 months before I really knew her; she was reliable, attentive, and trustworthy. Now that I have known her for 6 years, I can say, she is a great person, a good communicator, and true animal lover. She walks her dog, Pip, more often and takes longer walks than any other pet owner I know. She really loves to give dogs a chance to be dogs. But she has trained Pip beautifully as well. Most rescue animals have their quirks and usually some deep fears, but Sophie's intuitive responses and calm demeanor put animals at ease. She is also very generous with animals she doesn't even know at all. I would have Sophie pet sit for me every time!
