About Sophie

Growing up around dogs has lead to my love of their compainionship. I have always enjoyed caring for them, playing with them and cuddling them. 

I now have Maggie a King Charles Spaniel crossed with a Miniature Poodle & a Lab. Maggie is friendly, playfull and very loving to both humans and dogs. Maggie and I have had lots of experience looking after other furry friends at home. Maggie is relaxed around other dogs and loves welcoming them into her space.

The property is close to the beach, securely fenced and has lots of room for playing.

My approach to dog care is gentle and empathetic, paying close attention to their individual needs so they feel safe and secure.

I understand that dogs respond well to a mixture of new stimulus and routine. You're dog could enjoy two walks a day on the beach or at the park and a place to come home to with plenty of toys and a snuggly place to sleep either inside or outside (whatever they prefer) 

I also have had previous experience walking dogs when I lived in Auckland and was unable to own my own and found it a great way to get my doggo fix. 

All gentle big dogs and medium to small dogs welcome!

I can't wait to meet your furry family members 🤗

Sophie was awesome- this was our first time using Pawshake and Sophie as a sitter for our girl Lucy. Lucy was very well cared for and Sophie provided updates and photos while we were away.
