Mother of fur babies.

Pet care experience

Over the years raising our 3, now adult kids, we have had dozens of kids who called us "Mom" and "Dad". We are the same with pets....We just cannot resist that face! I have been a trained volunteer at the ARL, and we have an 11 year old rat terrier, a kitten, a bunny, and a granddog we do daycare for and a grand cat staying with us. Our fur babies are members of the family, so I know just how you worry about them when you have to be away. I know what a relief it is to know they are cared for and happy. I will always stay in contact and let you know how your fur baby is doing so you can relax and either concentrate on work or enjoy making memories with family and friends on vacation.

Charlie had a great visit with Dina and her family. Dina made sure Charlie got her meds and sent multiple photos throughout the weekend. My girl was exhausted when she got home.

Excellent experience, will for sure use again! We were desperate for someone to watch our dog for a 2 week period over the holiday. On short notice, we connected with Dina and she helped make it a very smooth and positive experience. We got updates daily with pictures or video's which my kids loved. Thank you so much Dina!!!

Safety, trust & environment

I have found that treat training is very useful, but always tailor my actions to the family and animals, what works best for them. I have a variety of animals, and each gets what they need most from me.

Information Dina G. would like to know about your pet

Is your dog up to date with vaccinations and flea treatments? Does your fur baby get along with other pets? Any special needs? Does your pet fear thunder/fireworks, etc, and if so, what works best to calm them? Allergies?

A typical day

Simi inevitably teaches all of our guests to play "Tag", or "touch". We stay close to home, but make sure we have play time, cuddle time, and rest time.
