She was originally voiced by Jenell Brook Slack in the English dub, but in 2018, Grace Kaufman took over the role. In the Japanese version, she is voiced by Makiko Ohmoto (known for her role of Nintendo's Kirby). She was portrayed by Sarojini Bobbalu in the Team Bobbalu version of Supernanny: The Theory of Time.

Appearance
Sophie is a turquoise, slender otter with darker turquoise hair in a ponytail and a white belly and muzzle. She has small round eyes with three eyelashes each, and three pairs of whiskers. She wears thin-framed glasses, white socks, and pink sneakers. In Western artwork, she has four fingers, but in Japanese works, including Supernanny: The Theory Animated, she has five fingers.

Her original design was an orange otter with a snow white belly and long black hair and having a body shape similar to Jelly Otter's, but with a longer tail. Her eyes on the other hand, were shaped like Peanut Otter's and lacked eyelashes. She originally had a small fish-shaped birthmark on the left side of her neck, but was removed in 2014. She also wore round glasses, a bright yellow and bow with 2 blue circles on the front and back, and brown Lake Hoohaw style (according to her profile)-Converse shoes.

Her sleepwear consists of hot pink footsie pajamas with a purple turtleneck collar, which even covers the tail. Whenever she has trouble sleeping, she puts on a purple sleeping mask.

On a few occasions, her hair is in a ponytail. For example, in Sophie the Otter: Tough Girl, she sports it in the secret levels where she slides down on her belly. The reason is that she wants to keep her hair neat.

In 1930's World of Sophie the Otter: Tough Girl, she becomes grayscale and she loses her glasses. She has pie-eyes and wears Mickey Mouse-esque gloves.

In the Supernanny: The Theory Animated episode "The Nuclear Age", she wears a blue headband and bow, black-framed cat eye glasses, a light pink and white plaid '50s style dress, and brown penny loafers.

In Supernanny: The Theory II: THE UNCUT, she and the other otter characters were redesigned to have a more humanoid appearance compared to other works. In addition to her usual attire, Sophie wears a white Popples t-shirt and pink shorts.

Personality
She is a highly intelligent character with an IQ of a whopping 150 and is usually polite and helpful. Her feelings vary depending on the situation, ranging from peppy and innocent to furious and frustrated. She rarely believes in a tough approach because she is always helping children learn from their mistakes.
