Your Dog’s Second Home

Hi, I'm Sophie! 👋 Dogs have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them has become my full-time career as well as my passion. With over 20 years of experience looking after dogs of all ages, breeds and personalities, I've proudly been running my own dog care business full-time for the past year. When your dog stays with me, they become part of the family. My aim is to provide a genuine home-from-home environment where they feel safe, relaxed and loved while you're away. Every dog is different, so I tailor their care to suit their individual needs. Whether they love long woodland walks, playing in the garden, sniffing new places, curling up for cuddles or simply relaxing with company, I ensure their routine is followed as closely as possible. I'm fully insured and committed to providing a calm, structured environment where your dog's welfare always comes first. Their safety, happiness and comfort are my highest priorities.

We can't thank Sophie enough to take care of Bertie. He seemed to be enjoying his little holiday and Sophie is great with communication and photos update. Sophie did even text me that she noticed a sore skin on our dog and ask our permission to treat it while we are away. Bertie came home a very tired dog, slept all day.

Sopie was great, it's really clear when you meet her that she has a natural way with dogs and she sent us lots of pictures and videos and was always great at responding.

As always, Wilf had a great time with Sophie and her dogs. He's always very well looked after, and we're very lucky to have Sophie to call on. Thanks again!

Another great overnight stay for my three pups with Sophie and once again they had a great time. All well cared for and knackered from all the fun they have been having with Sophie and playing with the other dogs. Cannot recommend Sophie highly enough!

Safety, trust & environment

In My Home Your dog won't be treated like they're in kennels—they'll become part of everyday family life. I provide: • A secure, loving home environment. • Plenty of mental enrichment and play. • Walks appropriate to your dog's age, health and energy levels. • Rest and quiet time when needed. • Regular updates and photos for complete peace of mind. 🚶 Dog Walking I offer both group and solo walks depending on your dog's personality and needs. Walks are designed to be safe, enriching and enjoyable, giving your dog the physical exercise and mental stimulation they need while always putting their welfare first.

A typical day

I love to stimulate dogs, with mental stimulation, playing in the garden and also plenty of sniffs out in my local woods. We will always be busy having play in the garden, out on walks and cuddles are definitely an option for your dog

🐾 Zero Tolerance for Aggression For the safety and wellbeing of all dogs in my care, I have a zero-tolerance policy on aggression. Should any dog show aggressive behavior of any kind, they will need to be collected immediately. 📞 Emergency Contacts Emergency contacts are required and must be available while you’re away, especially if you’re on holiday. This ensures I can always act quickly in the best interest of your dog. 💛 Reactive & Anxious Dogs I understand that some dogs can be reactive or anxious, and I have plenty of experience supporting them. Please let me know if your dog has specific triggers (other dogs, environments, situations, etc.). I pride myself on managing these carefully and will always do my best to avoid unnecessary stress for your pup.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
