Here for your pet!

Pet care experience

I started caring for family pets at a young age. I've grown up with dogs and cats all my life. All furry loved ones in my care I take care like my very own.

Simone has watched over our old boy, Dash, a few times now. Each time, I am reminded of Simone’s kindness and attention. Dash has separation anxiety and tends to get slightly depressed when we leave, but knowing he’s with Simone gives both him and I comfort. She spoils him and makes sure that he doesn’t feel lonely. She plays him music during the day and tucks him in at night. She is diligent about his medications (very important for senior pups!); makes sure that he eats well (none of that hunger strike until mom gets home); and is patient on walks where he insists on sniffing every stain on the sidewalk. Simone is my go-to sitter. I’m grateful to have met her and feel extremely lucky when she’s available. Do not miss out on this sitter!

I can’t say enough amazing things about Simone!! I’ve heard horror stories of using Rover, especially in NYC, so I was so hesitant at first, but after meeting Simone I felt so comfortable immediately and never once had hesitation the entire time she was staying at my apartment with our baby boys. It was my beagles birthday and she sent me a recipe to ask about ingredients then made him a whole birthday cake with a number candle on it- I even came home to a birthday card she wrote him on my fridge. So above and beyond even my wildest dreams. She sent as many updates as I wanted but always kept me in the loop with what they were up to and how they were doing. She is my go to gal from here on out whenever we need someone to hang out with our boys. WE <3 SIMONE!!!

I read all of the glowing reviews for Simone and did a meet & greet with her where I thought she was amazing. However, to my surprise, when it came time to care for my two kitties I experienced quite the opposite. Simone was consistently hours late with no communication, did not follow care instructions, overstepped boundaries in my home and totally broke my trust in her. Most importantly, she put my pets in danger on the last day of her care (which she had to end early) and was uncooperative when trying to rectify the issue. The lack of responsibility and respect is something I’ve never experienced with a pet sitter before and I hope no other pet parent has to deal with a nightmare like my kitties and I did.

Simone was great with our two dogs, Petey and Polly. She brought a calm and friendly energy, which helped them feel comfortable right away. When we got home, we could tell they were happy to be around her. I would definitely ask Simone to care for our pups again!

I am a very laid-back person. My clients often tell me how calm their animals are while in my care. I am someone who tends to bring a healing touch to my clients. I love what I do and it is reflected in the care I provide.

Information Simone M. would like to know about your pet

It's important to know about any medical conditions your animal is experiencing before I care for him or her. Knowing if your dog is allergic to any food or treats is important as well.

A typical day

Music is a passion of mine and it helps me calm the dogs and cats I sit. I've found much success in videos found on the internet of birds and other nature sounds from the region of origin when I care for animals who are new to town. I take great care in finding what the animal enjoys and do whatever it takes to bring them comfort and joy.
