The best home away from home!

My first dog Billy found me over 30 years ago, unfortunetly, he passed away form cancer at age 8.5 after a 2 year battle. I also belonged to Wolfie for 7 years, he passed away at age 12. Roxy was our 13 year old Swiss Mountain Dog mix, she passed away November 2016, Pancho was our 16 year old Chihuahua, he passed away February 2017. Lilly wa our 14 year old Jack Russel Terrier. We also foster dogs for a local rescue. I have had over 65 fosters adopted out to good forever homes. As you can have gotten an idea already, we love dogs! Our home will be the prefect paradise for your dog to stay and enjoy him/herself. Daily activities are morning walks, sunbathing, playing in and out as we please, trips to our local college campus to enjoy watching the birds and cool our paws in the lake and of course lots of napping. Your pets will receive 24/7 supervision inside and out. Transportation to vet in case of emergency will also be provided and oral and injected medication can be administrated to your pet. Your dog is welcome to bring his personal items, such as beds, crates and blankets. A meeting to establish compatability is not required but highly recommended. Our family will be happy to have your pets in our home to give you the peace of mind that they will be cared for as part of one of our own so you can fully enjoy your vacation. Dogs with disability welcome! Drop off and pick up times for boarding MUST BE BETWEEN 8AM AND 9PM. I NO LONGER ACCEPT LARGE BREED PUPPIES. I FOSTER FOR A RESCUE AND OFTEN NEED TO HAVE RESCUES WHO ARE NOT YET SPAYED OR NEUTERED, SO DOGS MUST BE SPAYED OR NEUTERED, UNLESS YOUNGER THAN 6 MONTHS! I NO LONGER CAN ACCEPT DOGS OVER 30 LBS. I CAN ALSO CARE FOR CATS AS DROP IN VISIT AT THEIR OWN HOMES. Please, check my calender for availability! Why I love dog sitting I have been living with dogs for over 20 years. All my dogs have been rescued. My first dog was a pit bull mix, then a German Shepherd, and to this day I still have the dogs in the photos and I also have foster and placed in good homes over 40 rescue dogs. Meet my pets Roxy is 13 years old. She is a very friendly Swiss Mountain dog mix. Pancho is a lovable 16 year old Chihuahua. Pancho is a certified therapy dog. Lilly is a 7 year old short legged Jack Russel Terrier. They are all friendly. About my yard My backyard is fenced all the way around, with locked gates and no gaps. There are photos of it in the profile. My experience administering medication I have no problem administering oral medications.

Simone is amazing! We’ve been taking our pups to her for the last few years and have nothing but positive experiences. Our dog gets so excited to go “on vacation” at Simone’s house and always comes home happy and healthy. If you are looking for a dog sitter who loves animals, Simone is someone you can trust to take great care of your dogs.

Simone and her husband are wonderful dog loving people! Upon first meet she was friendly, easy to talk to and welcoming my loving little girl Zara into her home. You can tell the dogs behave due to the love she has for each one! I will highly recommend and will be bringing my Zara back to her home! Thank you again Simone!

Simone took wonderful care of Onyx while we were away. She was reliable, caring, and kept us updated, which gave us great peace of mind. It was clear that Onyx was happy and well cared for. We highly recommend Simone to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter!

My fur babies are my world, and I was nervous to leave them for twelve days for a surgery and recovery. I was so pleased to see that Simone was still on Rover. She had watched my dogs in 2019 when I had another surgery. So I knew that they would be well taken care of. Simone is a very loving and caring dog sitter and took such great care of my two dogs Sparky and Bambi. I received pictures and updates of my puppies daily while I was recovering and well wishes for me too. Sparky was on medicine when I dropped him off and Simone made sure he was given it as prescribed. I couldn't be happier with the love and care that they received! Thank you Simone

Simone was amazing with my dog! She did a great job at sending updates of him enjoying various activities thoughout his stay. My dog has special needs and isn’t the easiest to look after, but Simone did a fantastic job at making sure all of his needs were met. My dog returned to me happy and not wanting to leave Simone’s, where he enjoyed exploring her lovely backyard space. I will be returning to use Simone’s services again, and I highly recommend her!!
