Highlights
Pet care experience
Dog Sitter and Walker
Hello! I love looking after dogs and have been on Rover since August 2022. I have experience with pet dogs, cats, guinea pigs and pet rats. I am able to do check in visits for cats and small animals and may be able board small pets. I have experience with senior dogs and dogs with mild medical issues.

Ratings and reviews
Sophie looked after my husky/shepherd cross Neko. Neko settled well and seemed happy and content in Sophie's care. I would definitely ask Sophie to site Neko again.
Sophie was very sensitive to Xanders needs. He seemed to be very relaxed with her
Excellent. Wouldn’t hesitate to use again
Another lovely stay with Sophie. Our dogs are rescues who are very nervous generally but each time we leave them with Sophie they get more and more comfortable which makes us very confident that they are well looked after, and the pics and updates are really reassuring. Thank you!
Sophie is absolutely lovely and Billy was well looked after. Will absolutely be asking if Sophie can dogsit Billy again. Very very good service.
Our black lab is always so well looked after by Sophie…it’s a good sign when he’s pulling to get into her house and wagging his tail as soon as he sees her! This summer was the first time we left our dog for more than two nights so we missed him but Sophie kept us updated with regular messages and photos. We know he gets lots of walks, cuddles and playtime with Sophie so will definitely rebook! Thank you Sophie!

Schedule
I am available throughout the day for dog sitting and walks. I usually take the dogs boarding with me for walks in the morning and evening.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced paved back garden. I usually walk the dogs in the morning and evening as that fits better with my schedule and helps reduce the chances of toilet accidents. Dogs are allowed downstairs in the kitchen and sitting room. I don't have a crate but there is room for one in the kitchen if you use one. There is a gate on the stairs so they can't go upstairs. Dogs are allowed on the furniture. Dogs aren't allowed upstairs or in my bedroom as I have pet fancy rats upstairs. The dogs cannot get to the pet rats, but may be able to hear or smell them which sometimes can make them quite agitated, which is something to bear in mind. I often look after my mum's dog Marvin who is a spayed male Labrador. He is very friendly but if he is staying while your dog is, I like to do a meet up with him so that I can make sure they will get along. I only walk dogs on the lead.
A typical day
I usually walk the dogs in the morning or evening. I don't have a car so I usually walk them at Ghelevelt Park or along the canal. At home I often play fetch with the ball or tug of war with a pull toy and they have access to the garden.
