Pet care has always been at the core of both my professional and personal life. Beginning in a bustling doggy daycare setting, I mastered the art of understanding and meeting the diverse needs of dogs, from administering medications to ensuring their comfort during overnight stays. Transitioning into my current role at a dog grooming salon has further enriched my expertise, where daily I attend to a variety of breeds with meticulous care from baths to nail trims and other such services that enhance their well-being. Outside of my salon responsibilities, pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily life. With a flexible schedule, I am fully committed to the welfare of animals, whether it involves taking them for walks, ensuring their nutritional needs are met, or administering medications with both expertise and affection. To me, caring for animals goes beyond mere duty—it embodies a personal dedication to ensuring they experience security, happiness, and comprehensive care in every facet of their lives.

Safety, trust & environment
Caring for pets, whether in my home or in clients' homes, is a commitment I take seriously and professionally, drawing on my expertise with large breeds such as my Great Dane. I prioritize her well-being with two daily walks, diligent health monitoring, and engaging activities. With dependable transportation, I provide comprehensive services like dog walks, in-home sitting, and drop-in visits, ensuring pets receive exceptional care, including feeding, medication, and companionship. I aim to surpass pet owners' expectations, ensuring their pets always feel cherished and secure.
Information Soren M. would like to know about your pet
To provide the best care for your pets, I need to know their medical history, including any conditions, medications, or allergies; dietary requirements such as food preferences, portion sizes, and feeding schedules; behavioral traits like temperament, fears, and anxieties; favorite activities and toys; training commands they respond to; their daily routine, including feeding times and potty breaks; socialization preferences; and emergency contacts for your veterinarian and a trusted person. Knowing these details ensures your pet receives the best possible care, tailored to their needs.
A typical day
When I watch pets, I like to ensure they have an enjoyable and stimulating experience. Here are some fun activities I typically engage in with the pets under my care. Depending on the pet's preferences, I engage in various games such as fetch, tug-of-war, and hide-and-seek. These activities not only provide exercise but also stimulate their minds. For dogs, I love taking them on walks to explore new parks and trails. This gives them a chance to enjoy new scents and sights while getting plenty of exercise. I use puzzle toys and treat-dispensing gadgets to keep pets mentally engaged. These activities are great for keeping their minds sharp and providing a rewarding challenge. I incorporate short, fun training sessions that reinforce good behavior and tricks. This can include practicing commands like sit, stay, and come, or even teaching new tricks. Many pets enjoy the one-on-one attention they get during grooming. Brushing, pet massages, and general pampering can be very enjoyable for them and help strengthen our bond. If appropriate and safe, I arrange playdates with other friendly pets. Socialization is important for their development and happiness. For pets that enjoy it, I introduce activities that stimulate their senses, like playing with scented toys, setting up a small splash pool, or providing different textured toys. Some pets enjoy calm and quiet activities. I make sure to spend time cuddling, reading, or simply sitting with them to provide comfort and companionship.

Pet care experience
What sets me apart from other sitters is my extensive and specialized skill set, as well as my diverse experience with various dog breeds and pet parents. I am trained in pet CPR, which equips me with the knowledge and skills to handle emergencies, ensuring the safety and well-being of your pet at all times.My grooming skills allow me to keep your dog looking its best while maintaining its health. Regular grooming sessions not only make pets feel good but also help in the early detection of any skin issues or abnormalities. I have taken dog training classes, with a special focus on non-verbal communication with dogs. This enables me to understand and respond to your dog's needs and behaviors effectively, promoting positive interactions and training outcomes. Having worked with a variety of dog breeds, I am familiar with the specific needs, temperaments, and care requirements of different types of dogs. This experience helps me to tailor my approach to suit each individual pet. My interaction with a wide range of pet parents has given me insights into different preferences, expectations, and routines. This helps me to provide a personalized and attentive service that aligns with the unique needs of both pets and their owners.
Reviews
My dog was taken care of and loved that she sent me photos of her taking my dog on a walk! Will rebook for sure. Super nice and friendly.
Soren was fantastic! Super flexible in working with me, and my pups seemed comfortable with her right off the bat. Will definitely reach out if I need a dog sitter again!
Great chemistry between Soren and Shaq and Shirley! Soren is very knowledgeable and made me feel 100% comfortable that Shaq was in good hands. A million THANKS! We’ll definitely connect again. Happy Hollidays!
She took care of our boys pretty good .. updated through text and pictures and videos.. took our boys out for potty break as well. Very happy with the service.
