Animal Lover Searching New Clients!
Pet care experience
(BACK FROM A HIATUS FROM WORKING BECAUSE OF SCHOOL. TAKING NEW AND REPEATING CLIENTS FROM SALEM AND BEVERLY ONLY AT THIS TIME.) (FOR INQUIRES, PLEASE CONTACT BETWEEN HOURS OF 10 AM AND 10 PM. PLEASE DO NOT MESSAGE BEFORE AND I WILL GET BACK TO YOU AS SOON AS I CAN.) Hello there! My name is Sophie and I'm recently home from college looking for new clients to take on! I've been taking care of animals all my life! My friends call me the pet whisperer! I know how to walk them, clean them, help them have fun and be engaged, as well as to how to approach them and what they need to have a good day. Animals have really brought out the best in me and my life and nothing gives me more joy than taking care of them. I recently lost my dog and my cat so I really want to get out there and begin to take care of animals again! I know everything about taking care of dogs and cats so please allow me to be their new best friend! Please note that if after 18 hours of non responsiveness on your end, I will archive our conversation. I’ve unfortunately had too many people ghost me and I’ve lost potential work because of it. If you have to cancel or found someone else, perfectly fine, but you have to let me know if that’s the case. Communication is very important to me and in order for this to work between us, it must be for you as well. Thank you for understanding!
Reviews
She was excellent. Stayed with my pup between drop-ins! I have a furbo which is a pet camera with 2-way audio and treat dispensing. Sophie dropped in while I was at a concert and during intermission I took a bit of a look and she was playing with, and snuggling my dog! My pup is super shy around new-comers but she was immediately intrigued and affectionate towards Sophie. I got text updates and questions in the beginning of her drop ins which was very much appreciated as I felt she really cared about Whiskey's well being and preferences (she likes her space at times!). Thank you Sophie for not only caring for my fur-baby, but also becoming her friend and trusted ally :)
Sophie was so great with our dog and two cats. On short notice she came ready to house sit. We had to run out the door and just had a few minutes to get her situated. She was a total pro! She regularly sent us photos of our pets, and was very communicative. We would absolutely have her back any time.
Sophie is responsive and helpful, as always! Takes great care of my cat!
Sophie is awesome! She took care of my anxious Daisy so very well! She kept sending frequent updates, even took her for walks around the block. I'm totally going to be a returning customer.

Safety, trust & environment
In the home, I often play with the dogs at their level of comfortableness. If they want to climb up with me on the couch and everything, all the more happy for me. If they want to hang out on their own, that’s absolutely fine! I never like to push friendships on my clients’ dogs but if they happen and trust is given between me and the dog, all the better!
Information Sophie L. would like to know about your pet
I would just like to know how they are around people, what they're comfortable and uncomfortable with. A list you can leave me of any and all instructions VERY detailed would be absolutely amazing. What I want is what they want. All animals are different so I just want a rundown on what they need and then we are good to go.
A typical day
We'll go on a walk through the neighborhood, maybe get some treats, play in my yard. I have so many toys that really need someone to play with them. We'll have fun no matter what!

Availability
I can be available for any time on those days though! Thank you and I look forward to working together! Please be aware that you need to give me enough time in advance so I can best care for your friend!
