SimbasSitSquad;TailWaggingCareWhenYou’reNotThere
At Simbas Sit Squad, dogs aren’t just pets—they’re family. My name is Lexy, and I run our newly found dog sitting service from a loving home shared with my two dogs: Simba, a gentle 7-year-old Collie with Border Collie Drop Syndrome,Wrenley, our spirited 2-year-old crossbreed and my husband Harrison, who also requires TLC! Growing up in a household full of rescue dogs—mostly German Shorthaired Pointers—I’ve been caring for dogs my entire life. That early experience taught me patience, responsibility, and a deep understanding of canine behavior. Simba’s unique condition has driven me to go even deeper into dog care, researching training techniques, body language, and how to provide the best possible environment for dogs with special needs. Every dog is different, and I tailor my care to suit each personality—whether they need extra play, quiet cuddles, or just someone calm and reliable while you're away. At Simbas Sit Squad, your dog will be treated like one of our own—with love, understanding, and a safe space to relax, play, and feel at home.

Ratings and reviews
Lexy was really great at photos and updates, not afraid to ask questions. I felt really confident leaving Pickle with her and would certainly book again
Lexi, thank you so so much! Conker has had the best time and I love how tentative you are to him and his needs and that you treat him like your own. He really won’t want to come home🤣. The second time Conker has been with Lexi and won’t be the last time.
Lexi was so welcoming and provided nice regular updates about our dogs stay. Welcomed her into their family and treated her as one of their own.
We couldn’t have chosen a better family to look after Conker, Lexy has treated Conker like her own and given detailed updates with lots of photos. Will happily be booking Lexy again soon
Our Gordon Setter stayed with Lexy for an evening and he had a wonderful time. He was well cared for and given lots of love and attention. Plenty of fun playing in the garden and he came home very relaxed having had a great stay.
Alex is a wonderful pet parent and sitter. She has an indisputable instinct when it comes to dogs, and it shows! She is always entrusted with the care of our family's dogs when we travel, and we can be assured they will be safe and pampered!

Schedule
Dog sitting is now my full-time job, and I absolutely love it. With plenty of time each day, I’m able to give every dog the attention, play, and care they deserve. Whether it's walks, games in the garden, or quiet cuddle time, I’m here to make sure your pup feels safe, loved, and right at home while you're away.

Safety, trust & environment
Your dog’s safety is my top priority. At Simbas Sit Squad, I’ve created a secure and dog-friendly environment to give both you and your pup peace of mind. My home features a fully fenced garden for safe outdoor play, dog-gated rooms to manage space as needed, and all the essentials—pet bowls, leads, treats, muzzles, and more. Whether your dog needs space to run, a quiet corner to relax, or a bit of extra support, I’m fully equipped to keep them safe, comfortable, and happy

A typical day
A typical day in my dog care begins bright and early with a toilet break. Throughout the day, dogs are let out every 1–2 hours, and when the weather is pleasant, the back door remains open so they can enjoy free access to my safe and secure garden whenever they please and also doggy paddling pools! After their first stretch and sniff outdoors, it’s breakfast time. Each dog’s meal is carefully prepared based on the information you provide — including portion sizes, feeding times, and any allergies or dietary needs. Once tummies are full, it’s time for play! I have a wide variety of toys suited for every age group, from energetic puppies to gentle seniors. There are also stimulating enrichment toys to keep their minds active and happy. Next comes the most exciting part of the day — walkies! Provided the weather is at a safe temperature, dogs are taken out either in small groups (no more than four at a time, so I can give each dog the attention they need) or on individual walks if required. Safety and enjoyment are always my top priorities. After a good walk, the dogs have plenty of fresh water and usually settle down for a well-earned nap. As they wake, we ease into another round of play and social time. While joining in is never forced, I find that socialising with other dogs is incredibly beneficial for building confidence and companionship. At the same time, dogs who prefer more independence are free to rest, explore, or play at their own pace. Later in the day, it’s dinner time, when meals are prepared and served individually to make sure every dog ends the day with a full and happy tummy. When bedtime comes around, I use secure stair gates to provide safe and comfortable spaces tailored to each dog’s needs. Whether a dog prefers to sleep alone or alongside a companion, I can accommodate their routine so they feel settled and at home. Every day is filled with structure, care, and plenty of tail wags — creating a happy balance of play, exercise, rest, and comfort
