Pet care experience
The Dogmother of Harlem 🐕🦮🐩🐕🦺
Hello! My name is Symoné and I’m a furbaby queen! I've been caring for puppies, seniors, grumpies, sweeties and everything in between for 10+ years. I own my own wellness business and work from home so I have the flexibility to set my work hours and be available for pet care as needed! My apartment is cozy, hazard-free, Extra Large and located on the first floor. My building is across the street from St. Nicholas Park which is great for walks or playing in a grassy area! I love to give lots of belly rubs and cuddles and an avid Walker. Dogs receive about 4-5 walks a day in my care. My experience includes -Separation Anxiety -Administering medicine -Administering an IV -Puppies -Rescues -Pit Bulls -Temperamental Dogs -Older Dogs I pride myself in being overly communicative, patient and loving during your dog's stay with me. My only requests: -If you’re dog is not fully house trained please provide pee pads -Please provide doggy poop bags -Please be transparent if your dog is use to sleeping in bed with you -Please provide a crate if they’re use to one

Ratings and reviews
Symone took amazing care of Spencer while I was in Chicago! She was very attentive, and during this stay, I dropped him off while he was having slight stomach issues. I left detailed feeding instructions which were followed perfectly and his stomach issues cleared up immediately. Due to osteoarthritis, Spencer is also on restricted play, which Symone also took the time to ensure he didn’t jump on anything or anyone. It was another wonderful stay with Symone! Thank you for the peace of mind!!

Symoné has been great with my dog, Zeke. She is very reliable and communicative, and has no problem giving medication etc.

Symone was great - communicative, flexible and caring. Thanks for taking such great care of Rooney!

Symone was amazing! It was our first time boarding our dog and he really enjoyed it!

She took great care of Luna while I was away! I appreciated the updates and photos during the stay, and Luna came home happy and relaxed. It gave me peace of mind knowing she was in good hands. Thank you again for caring for Luna!

Symone was amazing. Very communicative and attentive. She checked in and was very conscientious and diligent about caring for my dog. My dog was clearly well-cared for and happy with Symone. I will definitely call Symone again.

Schedule
My schedule is extremely flexible however I highly suggest reaching out even if your dates are tentative. I have about 30-40 regulars that sometimes book me two-three months in advance.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Dogs normally have free reign of the apartment since I have ample space. But I do section off areas if I need to step out for a few or if the dog tends to have a marking problem.
A typical day
I love taking dogs to the park or on long walks. I live across from St. Nicholas Park with plenty of areas to play or just gave a relaxing walk along the nature path.
- 0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbsSymone can host up to 2 pets per night
- Please let me know your pets daily schedule, their likes and dislikes, and how frequently you would like communication from me! I would also like transparency on your pet's temperament (are they a barker), special needs, and any issues like leash aggression, anxiety, or other things I should be aware of.
