Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced yard so there is no risk of running into the road and a large house/yard for the dogs to play around in. I have a 10 year old Boston terrier who is extremely friendly and she loves making new friends! If your dog doesn’t work well with others, I have enough space to separate them completely and comfortably.

Information Sophie M. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has trouble with other dogs or humans! I want to make them as comfortable as possible so they can enjoy their stay here.

A typical day

I have a large backyard with a creek that the dogs love to run around in! Typically in a day I’ll take all of the dogs on short walks or drive them to the civic center for exercise around the water depending on their energy level! My house is full of dog lovers so they will be getting lots of attention and pets.

Pet care experience

Hi Pet parents! My name is Sophie and I’ve been a dog owner for all 19 years I’ve been alive - using all of that time to gain experience walking, taking care of, cleaning up after, training, and ensuring the safety of my pups. I’m comfortable with any size level and activity level- I’ve seen it all! I also have experience house sitting and taking care of friend’s/family’s pets while they are away. I’m looking to take care of some animals while I’m home from college for the summer because it’s what I do best! Thank you for entrusting me with the health and needs of your baby 🩷

Sophie was was warm and professional and related to my standard poodle in an easy manner. She's a terrific cmmunicator, giving me thoughtful and timely updates. She clearly loves dogs and has a special way with my rather diffident dog. I was extremely impressed with her and would work with Sophie again!

Sophie is kind, caring, and sweet with Chloe. Second time being there and Chloe was ready to go, and excited to spend time with Sophie.
