Dogsitting is now my full-time job. I do find that I spend more time in other peoples’ houses than my own sometimes which can be a little strange! 😂 But I love this job and wouldn’t change it for the world, the animals I meet and bond with on a near-daily basis make it all worthwhile! 🥰

Safety, trust & environment

When I’m housesitting, there are 2 things which I prioritise: the animal(s), and the security of your home. You can have full peace of mind when booking with me, as I make sure all doors are locked whenever leaving the property, and I stay in touch with you via text while you’re away, letting you know how your pet is doing, if there are any problems, and even sending photos of your furry friend so you know they’re in good hands!

Information Sophie H. would like to know about your pet

It is important for me to know how well behaved your dog is and if they require any specific needs such as medication, if they’re on any particular diet and how friendly they are with other dogs. I have previously looked after lots of dogs with anxiety issues and continue to do so, however if they have any aggressive tendencies I do need to know this for my own safety.

A typical day

I will play with dogs and take them on walks wherever they normally enjoy going. When it comes to cats and other types of pets, I can also play with them and ensure they have everything they need and want when in my care. All pets receive my full attention and I wouldn't pop out and leave them on their own unless you tell me I can.

Pet care experience

[Please see below for my price list👇] I have had pets around me my whole life and know how to look after them and make them feel safe, happy and pampered! I currently have 2 cats at home. We used to have a collie but unfortunately she had to be put to sleep which was really hard to deal with 😢 I’ve always wanted to work with animals so this is my dream job and something I hope to stick with for a long time! Drop-in visits (less than 4hrs and including a walk): Between £20-£40 Day bookings between 4-6 hours: £50 6+ hours: Full daily rate of £60 30 min walk: £15 60 min walk: £25 Cat & small animal sitting: £20 for drop-in visit or £40 per day housesitting (Note that additional fees apply when booking through Rover. For other booking and payment options please message me to arrange a meet & greet first.) Unfortunately I cannot offer boarding services at this time. I offer house sitting, dog walking and drop in visits at times of the day that suit you and your needs. I’m usually very flexible, however I do kindly ask for a few days’ notice just in case I happen to be unavailable. I would provide the best care for your pet/s and only do as you’ve instructed me to do. You can trust me to look after your pet with respect and empathy and make sure they’re as comfortable and happy as possible. Please see my Rover calendar, which I update regularly, to ensure I’m free on the days you require. You can trust me to keep your pet/s secure when in my care. Please let me know if there’s anything specific I need to know about your property and your pet.

Sophie day sit for me while I went away, so my husband could still go to work. She is one of the few humans Lina trusts and can relax around. I got photos to keep me updated on the daily activities. Highly recommend

Sophie is now Lina's best friend after a few sits. We wouldn't be happier!

Sophie has done a few day sits with Lina so they could get to know each other. This was the first house sit. I got daily updates and photos and Lina really relaxed. The house was immaculate when we got back. I am so happy we found Sophie. We are already booked in for another house sit!
