About Me

Hi! I’m Sophia D'Souza, an 18-year-old animal lover with lots of experience caring for dogs of all shapes and sizes. I may be young, but I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs my whole life and have built confidence in handling and understanding them plus I absolutely love spending time with them. I currently have a 16-year-old Jack Russell called Phoebe who’s very calm and gentle with other dogs, so you can be sure she’ll never be a nuisance. I also regularly look after my uncle’s Labrador and sometimes my friend’s German Shepherds, so I’m very comfortable handling different breeds and temperaments.

I started pet sitting because I genuinely love being around animals and know how important it is for owners to feel their pets are safe, happy, and cared for while they’re away. I’m responsible, patient, and always treat every dog as if they were my own — with love, attention, and plenty of cuddles!

Where I Provide Care

If your dog will be staying with me, I have two homes where I spend my time. During the week, I’m based in a flat with no garden, which is perfect for smaller and medium-sized dogs (though larger ones are welcome too). On some weekends, I stay in a large house with a big garden — ideal for dogs who enjoy having more space to play and explore. Please message me in advance so I can let you know which home I’ll be staying in at the time of your booking.

I can’t take cats into my home, but I’m more than happy to care for them in your home if needed. For safety reasons, I only accept vaccinated pets.
