Hello, my name is DeMira Simmons

Pet care experience

I am a 24 year old living with autism spectrum disorder. I always loved animals since I saw them for the first time when I was a toddler. Animals and I just clicked, and I love getting to know more and more about animals. I would help out from time to time growing up, helping take care of animals. I also love music, and I play the cello. I'm a fur-mom of a domestic shorthair cat named Leo, and an Australian Shepherd named Zola. From February 2021 to July of 2021, I worked at Camp Bow Wow, and since August of 2021, I’ve been working at Cedar Run Company for almost 3 yrs now.

DeMira watched our 2 dogs, and 4 cats for a week and did amazing! The animals loved her, and I could tell they were very well taken care of! She stayed at the house and kept it as clean as we left it (actually I think cleaner! Lol) Highly recommend her and will be using her again for our next big vacation ❤

DeMira did a wonderful job managing our pets and caring for our home! She stayed overnight and took care of our big dog - who has significant anxiety when we leave - and our two cats, who absolutely hate each other and have to be separated with locked doors. I feel like our pets are so complicated and she handled them with ease. And our dog was SO happy when we got home - it was clear he'd found a new best friend! I highly recommend DeMira.

Ms Sweet De Mira, where do I start? Well she is what I would call a animal whisper. Her soul just pours out to them and they love her. I foster dogs through Cedar Valley Pit bull rescue and I personally of had DeMira watch and play with my fosters. She also has watched my personal 2 dog who both are over 75 lbs. She loves cats. I have 2 cats one who is kinda a butt but loves DeMira. I would highly recommend DeMira because not only is she doing a service to these animals but these animals are doing her a service as well. Humans just are not very nice these days but gosh the animals have that unconditional love we all want.

Safety, trust & environment

Unfortunately, I can only have my dog, Zola, over at my house, plus I’m afraid she might be jealous. So yea, boarding & daycare at my house isn’t really an option. I will give your pets all the loves and the tender loving care when you’re on vacay.

Information DeMira S. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know about their temperaments and their personalities, or any behavioral problems before I watch them. I love any type of dog and cat breeds, really.

A typical day

I would love to just play with them, cuddle, take them on walks, get them fed and hydrated. Literally anything I can think of to keep your doggos and cattos entertained.
