About Sophie
Hi, I am Sophie and I am an owner to a beautiful Golden retriever and a feisty Manx-mix cat. I am a casual worker and a student at University so my availabilities can change frequently. I am open to bookings around 30km from Wollongong due to travel costs and my access to a vehicle!
I have 5 years experience of dog and cat sitting for a day and for longer periods (up to a month) and I can guarantee their safety and their happiness are my biggest priority when in my care. I am very active so I love taking them for walks but also those calm quiet moments of watching tv or reading a book with them in my lap.
In my experience of sitting for animals, my aim is always to make sure the owners and the animals are comfortable with me and get to know me. For starters I have not met a type of dog or cat I do not like, I love being in nature and letting them be curious and I love being in their company. I am quite happy to do the dirty jobs as well like picking up their poo, brushing them and washing them if they decided to take a roll in the mud!
Our pets are like our children and they have needs and wants and deserve all the love we can offer them. If it is a weekend away or a holiday break needed, I can definitely offer my help to make sure they are taken cared for and given the attention they deserve.
