Simone did a great job with Belle. Belle came home happy & tired. Will definitely be booking daycare again. Thank you, Simone!

Simone is the best sitter for my two big GSP! She’s really communicative. The pups LOVE her.

Simone D is the best with my two large energetic pups!! She takes amazing care and documents everything. I try to book her whenever I can because my pups adore her and I never have to worry about them.

Simone is an amazing pet sitter and such a sweet person. She provides very detailed reports on how my cat is doing — and gives her so much good playtime! Love all the photos and would highly recommend Simone

When taking care of your pet I will always make sure to understand the needs of your pet and discuss any accommodations they may require. I have a three year old Dachshund mix who gets along very well with others. Would love to set-up meet and greets prior to boarding.

Information Simone D. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet requires any special accommodations! I have a lot of experience with a variety of animals and am more than happy to make adjustments for your pet.

A typical day

Typically I take dogs out four times a day for walks (of course can be adjusted for the specific needs of your pet). Additionally I love to provide mental stimulation through playing with toys, facilitating playtime with my dog (if your pet is interested), and lots of cuddles ☺️. If you are dropping off your pet in a vehicle I recommend parking on N Tazewell. The following address is a good reference point: 751–777 N Tazewell St Arlington, VA 22203. If you choose to park there let me know and I can meet you at that entrance!
