Experienced & Trustworthy Dog-lover
Pet care experience
I have been a dog sitter on and off for over 10yrs in Whistler BC, New Zealand, Australia and UK. I was also previously a volunteer at WAG animal shelter here in Whistler. I've taken care of dogs of all breeds; I grew up with Labradors and I am confident and capable with large breeds. I also have experience (and patience!) with puppies as young as 8 weeks.
Reviews
Sophie is a gem, and wonderful with our pups! One of our pups is a bit anxious and she warmed to Sophie in no time. She made me feel so comfortable leaving my girls in her care. Appreciated all the photo updates too! Will definitely get Sophie when we come back to Whistler!
We had one very contented spaniel when we got back. Quick and clear responses from Sophie, friendly and engaging.
Sophie was great with our 95 lbs, Doberman Rottweiler guard dog (who is actually a gentle giant). He went with her happily, and came home tired and content. She sent photo updates and extended his stay at the last minute when something came up. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again!
Sophie is great! Our puppy was beyond excited to hang out with her again 😁

Safety, trust & environment
I have plenty of indoor space, an unfenced yard, a quiet home, a dog park 15 minute walk away and access to trails 5 minutes away, so lots of bases covered.
Home
Information Sophie G. would like to know about your pet
I like to know a little about your dog's personality, energy level and quirks, so I know how to adapt my behaviour and can also plan their day with me. Please also notify me of any important factors including dietaries, triggers, leash/off-leash & recall, etc.
A typical day
I always want to ensure a dog is fulfilled by the outdoors, giving time for sniffing, playing & getting their paws a little wet! I live near a dog park if your dog is social, but there are lots of quiet spots around me if they prefer te be in their own little pup world. I also enjoy running, so if your pet has the energy for a steady trail run, let me know!
