Dog lover with a safe and peaceful home ❤️

Pet care experience

Hi I’m Sophie. Former dog mama to two chow chows who sadly passed away last year after 12 years of love. They were my absolute world and I know how hard it could be to find somebody safe and trustworthy to look after them when I was on holiday, offering the same love, attention and cuddles which they were used to from me. Since losing my own dogs I’ve been dog sitting for friends and family, simply because I miss having dogs around the house and miss getting out for walks - so I decided to make this a more formal arrangement! I’m experienced with both puppies and senior dogs, and happy to deal with any medication they need or special dietary requirements. I love to get out for walks - with plenty of parks, woods and rural areas near my home. Also happy to take car rides for special walks - if your dog is happy in the car. I understand the importance of maintaining your own rules/schedule/routine. I’m happy to allow dogs on the sofa on a blanket and to sleep upstairs on their own bed - if required. Please feel free to bring any home comforts your dog likes and rest assured I will keep in touch with photos and updates - I know how anxious I felt about leaving my own dogs and how much better this made me feel.

Sophie is one of the most kind and caring people that I know. She absolutely loves animals and has often taken care of my springer spaniel, Charlie, when I have been away. She would do anything for anyone and would provide a safe and caring environment for your pet, ensuring you have a carefree holiday knowing that your pride and joy is in the safest of hands. I would recommend Sophie to anyone!

Safety, trust & environment

Peaceful home, with no kids or other animals. I have a safe, high fenced rear garden with a bolted gate where your dog can enjoy as much time as they like, with plenty of shade in the summer months. I also have a baby gate which I previously used to stop my own dogs getting to the front door when opening the door, for safety reasons.

Information Sophie W. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs I can account for. I’m happy to take two small to medium dogs from the same home, who can be walked together. I am happy to take puppies and seniors but they should be largely toilet trained.

A typical day

Lots of love and cuddles. As many toilet breaks as they need. Short walk in a morning and lunch time and longer walk in an evening - if this suits your dog.
