About Sonia

I have grown up with pets and love them in all shapes and sizes. I have over 20 years experienced with dogs and cats. My husband and I both have flexible jobs, which allows us to take great care of your sweetheart. I work from our home most days and if your dog needs exercise, my husband also loves taking them for runs, while I prefer a long walk in the park. I'm from Melbourne but lived in Europe for 8 years and just moved back with my husband who is from Denmark because we wanted a more relaxed lifestyle and to get a dog of our own and now we have a sweet little boy Milo whos a long haired mini dachshund. We would love for him to have some dog friends. We used to dog sit a lot when we lived in Europe, and loved it. I run my own business so I have flexible hours and love to get out for walks. Experienced with administering medication and can also do basic grooming and training. I've taught our dog a lot of tricks and commands.

We have a big backyard that is fully fenced off. I usually do one long walk a day where we will play in the park for about an hour and then some play time and fetch in the backyard (or living room if the weather is bad). I feel comfortable looking after max two of your dogs as well as my little dachshund as they can play together and I can give enough attention to each one. The pets are allowed on the couch inside as well as the one outside. Our Milo uses the bell to ring when he wants to go outside but if the weather is nice I just usually leave the back door open all day so they can go in and out whenever they want.

If I have your dogs over I won't be leaving them at home by themselves unless it's to pop out quickly to the store across the road. They will be my main priority.

I'm happy to have your pets over to my house to stay the night while you're away or just for the daytime sitting.

I also make a lot of organic healthy treats and food for our dog Milo so will have lots of treats here if yours are allowed any. Also have so many enrichment toys to entertain them (you can see in the house photos).
