My history
I’ve always had a lifelong love for animals and can’t imagine my life without them. I studied Animal Care and Animal Management at Brooksby college for three years, gaining hands-on experience with a wide range of species and learning how to give them the very best care.
After college, I ran my own nails and beauty business called 'Soph's Beauty' which helped me name my new business 'Soph's Walks and Whiskers'. Having my beauty business helped me develop great people skills and attention to detail — qualities I now bring to my pet care work. Animals have always been a huge part of my life; I previously owned a pony for many years and have grown up surrounded by dogs. Losing my two beloved dogs, Molly and Elvis, reminded me just how special the bond between humans and animals is — and inspired me to start my dog walking and pet sitting business.
I truly love what I do and treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for. When I’m not spending time with animals, you’ll usually find me out on a walk, reading a good book, enjoying a trip to the cinema, or heading to a music festival!
