Stay-At-Home Empty-Nester Dog Lover

We've had dogs in our home for 30 years. Our family has raised 6 (cavapoos and poodles.) We currently have 3 cavapoos. I'm always the 'go-to' when friends and family need a safe and happy place for their doggies.

Once against another seamless booking with Simone. No one will care for your dog better and no one is as kind of a human as Simone! We 1000% recommend using her!

Schedule

I'm very flexible. My three children are grown and gone. My husband travels (tour manager of band for 35 years) so I'm looking for a way to earn some $$, from home so that I can be home when he is home, while doing something I love.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fenced in back yard. My house has two separate areas. I'm able to use dog gates to keep dogs separated, if necessary (if they need to be fed separately etc). I will only have non-shedding dogs. Anything mixed with a poodle is for me!!!

Pets

A typical day

I'm typically up at 6am and let my three doggies out into the fenced- in yard to go potty. Weather permitting, the puppies go on a walk with me (and my husband if he's home). We have a basket of toys that especially my Wolfie likes to play 'fetch' with. Typically I don't, but I am able to take your dog on a second walk in the afternoon or early evening. If it's a beautiful day, my doggies like to play in the fenced-in yard for half an hour, (and bark at the squirrels) or so. They are inside with me most of the day, though. We live in a lovely and very safe family and dog friendly neighborhood; one entrance in and one out. 25 mph speed limit. After dinner, I typically settle in for the evening to watch TV or read with my three pups on my lap.

After 30 years of raising puppies, I am well prepared to cater to the needs of older dogs and young doggies. My home has four different places to corral dogs if it's better to separate them while feeding, etc. Two separate parts of the house with gates; a large sheltered deck, and a fenced-in yard. I will only have non-shedders. I will only have small to small/medium dogs.
