Pet care experience

Bubbly, outgoing and reliable!

Hello! I'm Sophie, originally from Scotland (UK), I now live and work in the USA, living in the Alexandria area. Having grown up with dogs and have always looked after my friends and families, I understand the care, attention, and love they need to thrive. With years of hands-on experience, I know how to provide the tailored care your pet deserves. I’ll always take the time to understand your preferences—whether it’s keeping your pup off the sofa or indulging in some cuddle time, I’ll follow your guidelines as I respect that every pet and owner has unique needs, and my priority is ensuring your furry family member feels comfortable, happy, and loved while you're away. Let’s create a care plan that works perfectly for you and your pet!

Boarding • May 26, 2026

Sophie is amazing and she goes beyond just taking care of my dog. My dog just completed training and she spent the week reinforcing the training he received. He came back to me very well behaved. I am so thankful for Sophie and the outstanding care she provides.

Doggy Day Care • Feb 04, 2026

I highly recommend Sophie, she did a great job taking care of my dog, Buddy. She cared for him in her home for the day and evening. She sent photos and kept in touch. Buddy loved spending time with her. I could not be happier with Sophie. So thankful for a great place for Buddy to spend the day.

House Sitting • Jan 02, 2025

Sophie was ABSOLUTE pleasure to have stay in my home with my two dogs while I was away! Her consistent communication and love for my pups gave me so much ease, which is all you could ever want when trusting your babies to someone else while traveling. I would 100% recommend her to anyone! Thank you Sophie!

Schedule

I work from home 2 days a week and can be flexible on what those days are depending on my schedule - so drop me a message and I will do my best to accommodate. For longer stays, my husband and I flex our working from home days so we can still accommodate looking after pets and they aren't left by themselves for longer than a few hours.
