Pet care experience

Reliable and Caring Sitter

I am an experienced dog walker, cat sitter, and house sitter with 3 years of professional experience, plus many more years of helping friends and family. I hold a K9 First Aid Certificate and, as a former housekeeper, I ensure that your home is clean and well-maintained when you return. Although I love dogs, my passion for travel makes full-time pet ownership challenging. Therefore, dog walking and house sitting are perfect for me, allowing me to enjoy the company of pets without the long-term commitment. I look forward to meeting you and your dog.

I was so pleased to have found Sophie to stay with Murphy over the weekend. I was able to truly relax on my trip knowing Murphy was getting belly rubs,walks and lots of love. I am so grateful for your kindness and reliability and would love to have you stay with Murphy again soon!

Thank you Sophie for watching our girl Harlow! Sophie was great and I’ll highly recommend her for anyone looking for a dog sitter. She was responsive and made sure to send pictures and updates during the weekend. I could tell my dog had a good time with Sophie and she was calm and happy when we returned. Also Sophie made sure to leave our house clean and tidy for our return. 5/5 stars!

Sophie is amazing! She cared for our senior dog and younger pup, each with different needs, with such thoughtfulness. She took them on separate walks, made sure our senior received his supplements, and kept us updated with wonderful photos. We returned to happy, well-cared-for pups and a spotless home. We highly recommend her services!

Sophie has looked after our little man Oscar twice and has been amazing. We love the constant updates and she took such great care of him. We hope to continue to have Sophie look after Oscar when we are in need. Highly recommend!!

Sophie was amazing with our cat Twigbert. He is a very shy guy and Sophie worked hard to earn his trust with kindness and treats:) She took him outside on his leash in our backyard daily, which is his absolute favourite thing to do and sent us daily photos and updates. We can't thank her enough for the patience and care she gave our cat while we were away. Our house was spotless when we came home and our cat was happy and content- the true sign that an incredible pet sitter has been at your home. I would highly recommend Sophie and will definitely book her again in the future.

Sophie is wonderful and we highly recommend her! We left our 2 dogs and home in her care for 2 weeks and didn’t worry for one second. She is professional and took care of our dogs like they were her own. We received pictures and updates everyday about their adventures. Our home was absolutely spotless upon our return, she took care of everything. Anyone would be very lucky to have Sophie take care of their animals.

Schedule

I’m currently living my dream of dog sitting full time. Nothing makes me happier than taking care of dogs and seeing their happy and sweet faces out on a walk.

Safety, trust & environment

I’m very mindful of the home owner’s space and always discuss their boundaries and safety rules in and around the neighbourhood to ensure a fun and safe environment for their fur baby.

A typical day

I’ll follow your guidance and keep to your schedule so depending on your dog’s personality, needs and routine we’ll take a walk in your neighbourhood or for the super energetic we could take a long hike or go to a local park and throw a ball to really tire them out.
