Compassionate animal care taker

Pet care experience

My name is Sophie It can be hard on our furry friends when there family has to leave for a little bit, so I like to make sure they feel at home away from home as much as possible with me. I am a Veterinarian Technician and have worked at a couple different animal hospitals. As of now I am a stay at home mom with my son along with taking an online course for Vet school. With that being said I have a lot of experience with animals and knowledge! My household is very animal friendly and we love to spend time with pets! I am very caring and compassionate towards animals and your pets would be in great hands with me! I love to go on long walks with dogs and make sure they get healthy exercise and of course have time to play! We love dogs in our household and we will treat it like there home away from home! Our house hold is fun place for your dog to be! We have a great fenced in yard so your dog can go out and play as much as they would like!

This review is waaaay overdue but I could not be more enthusiastic about recommending Sophie! Our weekend away in January turned into an additional 11 day trip & Sophie was more than happy to be flexible and keep our pup for an extended stay. She treated him like her own and sent updates as often as I needed them. Jordy felt so at home he would steal their clothes and snuggle up with them in his bed. He had lots of playtime with their dogs and they all got along great. If you are looking for a home away from home for your pup, Sophie is it! Thank you again, Sophie!

Sophie was great and very responsible with my pet Mia. Our dogs got along well and I had no worries while at work.

Sophie was so helpful! She was willing to pick Wicket up when my time schedule was running tight. Wicket had a great time playing with her pup! Received lots of amazing photos! Highly recommend her!!!
