About Sophie R.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
While I don't offer boarding in my home (I have a free-roam rabbit), I am more than willing to work with whatever home situation and expectations you have! My default is to be as present as possible. I will take good care of the needs of your pet and your space – you can trust me on that. Just let me know what you expect in your home and you'll be sure to see it happen!
Information Sophie R. would like to know about your pet
I require a meet and greet with you and your pet before accepting any new clients, no exceptions. This is to ensure that we're a good fit and for my own safety. I am comfortable with a very wide range of pet behavior, and am particularly fond of large and boisterous breeds!
A typical day
I’m all about giving your pet an enriching and active experience. I’ll go above and beyond to be sure they are not only being carefully cared for but also given an opportunity to be a creature- we’ll run and play, make time to sniff at every turn, and I’ll be sure that I leave your pet happy and content.

Pet care experience
I love 'em all. Grumpy, rambunctious, shy, reactive, or odd, I want to get to know your pet and take the time to learn from them and you about what they need in a caretaker. I have a soft spot for large, wild rescues. I am an avid hiker and can bring your dog on an enriching adventure, or we can take it slow in the neighborhood and stop to smell every few feet. If it's shorter at-home check-ins you need, I'll be sure to be present and involved the whole time I'm with your buddy. Long walks? I'll plan the route. Quiet company inside? We'll get along famously. I'm all about respecting you, your pet, and whatever you need from me to make your life a little easier! Please note that I also have a lifetime of experience with small mammals, rabbits in particular. I am skilled in administering meds and understand their behavior well.
Cat care experience
Sophie also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
Sophie did a great job with all 3 boys! We have a difficult schedule and she followed everything great! We will definitely be having Sophie back again!
Sophie was amazing with our pup while we were away for a few weeks!!! We loved getting the regular alerts that Sophie was taking care of him, always with a lovely note and photo update to put us at ease. Our dog absolutely loves Sophie (even mentioning her name results in a tail wag), so we’ll definitely be reaching out to arrange for other sits soon!
Sophie went above and beyond for our old dogs!
Sophie was great with S’mores!!! I appreciate her thoughtfulness and flexibility when something came up. I would definitely rebook!
