Highly recommend Simone. We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! She took amazing care of our fur baby while we were away and gave us complete peace of mind. She was reliable, caring, and treated our pup like one of her own. It’s clear she genuinely loves animals, and it shows in everything she does. We will absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate pet sitter!

Simone is FABULOUS! I can't recommend her highly enough for loving care for your dog. She has several small dogs and our Shih Tzu loved being at Simone's home with her (and them) for 5 days. Both her home and her yard are perfect spaces for dog fun! And she sent plenty of pictures showing our dog enjoying her life with Simone.

Simone is absolutely lovely and my pup thinks so too. With just one day stay they already have a rapport! I got updates during her stay, overall great communication and was super helpful after realizing I booked my reservation incorrectly! Highly recommend!

Simone took such incredible care of my Maltipoo, Lucy! From the moment I dropped her off, I knew she was in great hands. Simone sent daily updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. You can truly tell that she treats every dog she watches as if they were her own, giving them all the love, attention, and care they deserve. Lucy looked so happy and comfortable in every picture, and it was obvious she was having the best time. I’m so grateful for the care Simone provided and will absolutely be booking with her again in the future! If you’re considering booking Simone, this is your sign! Do not hesitate! Your pup will be loved and well cared for ❤️🐾

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.

Where your pet will stay

Home characteristics

Lives in a house
Has a fenced yard
Non-smoking household
Has 3 dogs
No children present
Dogs not allowed on bed

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.
