Maddy was great with our two dogs! She was very prompt and professional and provided updates/pictures. It's definitely a relief to know they are in good hands when we're away!

Charles was kind and caring with our pups during our trip. He kept us updated, sent lots of photos and the dogs were comfortable with him. We appreciate the care he provided while we were away.

John was great! He took Louie out to parks, walks, even to lunch! I was worried about leaving him alone, but with John, it was easier. I highly recommend him and will use him again. He sent pictures all the time and was highly responsive to all text messages/phone calls.

Arabella & Dylan were very attentive to Makkachin. :) They tag teamed her care like pros, Arabella tapping in before Dylan left, and in total were with her for 5.5 hours, never leaving once! They were punctual, attentive to directions, which they followed to the letter, and gave her tons of attention and exercise, full of play, walks, and snuggles. They also fed her and kept her safe. She was happy and worn out in the best way. I would definitely use them again!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs throughout my whole life. I used to own a black lab named chance. When I was young, we took care of him and took him on walks. He was a very shy dog that we rescued. When I got older. I got a bichon her name is Lime. We’ve had her for 18 years now and she is a blessing to my life. We Walker go runs with take her to the groomers vets and much more to make sure that she is safe and having the best life she can. I’m a college student and huge dog lover with experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I currently intern at WSET ABC 13 News, where I’ve developed strong communication, responsibility, and time-management skills. I have a tiny bichon named Lime who keeps life fun and energetic, and growing up I had a black lab named Chance, which helped build my lifelong love for animals. I enjoy spending time with dogs, going on walks, and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away! My main thing is to care for the dog as the client wants. I wanna make sure the dogs are exercised and also just happy overall. I’m available to do almost anything. The client wants to guarantee the happiness of your dog. As a fellow dog owner, I love my bichon. She’s such a blessing to me back home so I fully understand how far we’ll go to keep our little Furrey friends happy. (My bichon currently lives somewhere else)

Aliya is great with my pup! He’s always excited to see her and when I get home he is happy and calm. She takes him out for walks and runs him. He is always fed appropriately. She is very tidy in the house and respectful of my space. I trust her being alone in my home overnight and I am so grateful she is able to help me take care of my sweet pup.

About: I have taken care of a variety of pet and animals since I was young. I myself have 2 dogs, 4 cats, and even a couple goats. I am very comfortable around a variety of sized animals and have experience not only with my own pets but also sitting for a variety of small and large dogs as well as cats. I am currently taking part time classes for the summer and will potentially be working part time during the week. With that being said, I will be available in the evenings and at various times throughout the day depending on my schedule that week! I am very flexible and would love to work with you to ensure your pets have the best experience. I have experience working with dogs from under a year to more senior in age, as well as puppies to large breeds. I am available to stop in for potty breaks throughout the day, do meals and such in the mornings and evenings, and stay over to house sit overnight if needed. Some other experience I have is working with additional pets such as cats, reptiles, and small critters.

Izza Sofia is AMAZING!!! She took a lot of time to get to know us and everythhing we needed before ever coming, and then gave Makkachin the best day! 2 long walks, lots of playtime both indoors and outdoors, snuggles, companionship, and close supervision (good for a doggo who eats objects!) She was smiling in all her pictures, and definitely had fun, got her exercise, and had her separation anxiety cured. I can tell a difference in her demeanor when she is very engaged with and when she is not, and this was definitely a case of the former! Such a happy girl! 🥹 I also REALLY appreciated Izza Sofia’s constant updates many fantastic photos, and little comments all day long. She is the best and I can’t wait to have her watch Makka again! 10/10 recommend! 🥰

About: Hello! I have 2 years of experience with dog walking + a handful of occasions where I have been trusted to pet-sit / board. I consider myself a loyal dog (and cat!) owner with a great work ethic. For the 2 years of dog walking, I walked a German Shepard — his name was Val. I walked Val consistently, in weather that ranged from 90-40 degrees Fahrenheit, up until his owner moved into a nursing home and Val was rehomed. I loved the big guy like he was my own dog - filling his water, scooping out his dog food, brushing him out, and playing fetch. I never missed a day I was scheduled unless there was a sudden change in plans (I was sick, she cancelled my walk, or an event took place where I couldn't arrive in time to walk him). Recently, my family has adopted our beloved goldendoodle puppy — Corduroy. I love him unconditionally, and so much of my free time is spent helping him get his energy out. I am a homeschooler, with all days free except for Wednesday evenings and Sunday mornings. For walking purposes, I am available any time it is not dark outside and not preoccupied. Please note that my price for drop-ins, overnight care, and dog walking vary by location. The closer you are, the cheaper it will be. Below is how I determine payment: 0-5 miles from my home and/or workplace = $40 per night / drop in / walk Every additional 0.5 mile is $1 I make sure everything is taken care of. From basic expectations to leaving the house exactly how I found it — if not better. If it’s not my house or my pet, then I’m obligated to go by my clients rules.

About: I have 3 small female dogs of my own-2 chihuahuas and a shih tzu mix. I have helped my family care for them for around 7 years. I care for my 3 small dogs every day with my family. I feed and water them in the mornings and evenings. They are taken out every 2-3 hours by myself or someone else in my home. I care for pets by treating them like a part of the family. When caring for pets in others’ homes, I respect their boundaries and space. I follow all instructions closely, keeping things tidy and on schedule. I can send updates and pictures so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy and well cared for.

Cody took extreme care of my 13 year old pup by house sitting for an extended weekend. Murphy felt right at home and was given all the love and care he needed. Cody administered Murphy’s meds properly and gave daily reports on how Murphy was doing. Will definitely use again!

Mia was a God-send. She worked an overnight on a holiday weekend, which is not easy to find. She came for a free meet and greet, and followed instructions dependably. She is a super warm pet and people person. She is conscientious, responsive, courteous and respective of the premises. My cats were calm and happy upon my return. She sent pictures and was extremely responsive to texts. Stellar sitter. She will be a regular for us. With gratitude-) She was the ideal sitter and we will be calling her again.

Anna was absolutely fantastic! I reached out to her last minute to watch my puppy when he was sick and she answered very quickly and was willing to help. She was so sweet with my puppy and worked so well with him. She kept me up to date, took him for lots of walks, and did some enrichment activities with him! Definitely recommend!

I can't say enough good things about Sophia! They are incredibly compassionate and took the time to really understand and accommodate my dogs' individual needs. I could tell they were caring, loving, and patient with my fur babies, which gave me such peace of mind while I was away. I highly recommend Sophia to anyone looking for someone who will treat their pets like family!
