Highlights
Pet care experience
Experienced & Caring Sitter
Having recently lost my Australian Shepherd, I feel my house is too big and quiet with just me here. I’ve always looked after friends and family’s dogs and have really enjoyed it, so now I’m branching out! I’ve experience with anxious dogs, reactive dogs, and poorly/medicated dogs. I’ve owned a big dog and have looked after little dogs too, so really every and any dog is welcome at my house.

Ratings and reviews
Barney has been brilliantly looked after by Sophie on plenty of days but this weekend was his first sleepover, he was so happy to run to the door. We are so lucky to have found someone so lovely as Sophie, she is just the best and is the first person I contact when I need someone to look after Barney 😊
Sophie was amazing. Coco had a great time. I loved all the updates and photos we got. I would highly recommend
Barneys had another brilliant day with Sophie. Barneys so comfortable being with her, the relationship that’s growing is so lovely. I feel very at ease leaving Barney with Sophie, knowing that he’s so well looked after
Sophie G. cancelled a booking 1 day before it was scheduled to begin.
Barney had another brilliant day with Sophie, he was very happy running towards her front door at drop off, which tells me he’s very happy to be with her. Thank you Sophie for making him feel so welcome, safe and comfortable when he’s with you
This is the first time I have used Rover.com and I was a bit nervous as it was just a one-off day care arrangement. Sophie was great, relaxed and easy to communicate with. Gus is also a chilled soul and so I immediately knew it was going to be fine. Sophie was attentive without being over the top, which some doggy people can be - that wouldn't have been great for Gus. I really appreciated her calm house and knew Gus would be happy there, which he clearly was when I returned. Thanks Sophie x

Schedule
I work from home, so I’m really flexible with care. Typically I like to take dogs for a short walk before work and at lunchtime, then for a longer walk after work but this is very dependent on each dog individually. Of course there are numerous toilet breaks and cuddle breaks within the day too!
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a garden and no other pets currently, so your pooch has access to the toilet undisturbed. I like in a very quiet street, with very few passing cars/people which is especially great for reactive dogs I’ve found.
