About Symone W.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
Other than food & water, love is the main thing I give to my pets at home. Playing, treats, etc. are amazing additions to incorporate as well, but to provide unconditional love to an animal that gives the same to you is such a beautiful exchange.
Information Symone W. would like to know about your pet
I don’t have any preference on breed or age, i love all dogs/cats and feel comfortable approaching kind. I would like to know if the dog(s) have any reservations towards new people and what their behavior might be in that situation? Do they have a favorite kind of treat I can bring with me to make them more comfortable?
A typical day
My favorite activity to do with a dog is walk/drive to the closest park and toss around a ball or play with their favorite toy! I’m new to the area, but I’ll be sure to ask if your pup has a special place you guys like to go to!

Pet care experience
Hi! I’m Symone, and I’m 28 years old. I’m a lifelong animal lover and proud cat mom to my sweet girl, Kobe, who absolutely has my heart. Ever since my mom got me my first cat when I was five years old, caring for animals has been a huge part of my life. Over the years, I’ve cared for countless cats and dogs for friends, neighbors, and Rover families, and I genuinely love getting to know each pet’s unique personality. While I can’t have a dog of my own right now, I absolutely love spending time with them. I was a competitive runner for many years, so long walks, playtime, and keeping up with energetic pups are still second nature to me! I work a full-time professional job with a flexible schedule, which allows me to be dependable and available for daytime visits, walks, and check-ins. My work can be completed throughout the day, so I have the flexibility to give your pet the attention they deserve. My approach to pet care goes beyond the basics. Of course I’ll make sure your pets are fed, have fresh water, clean litter boxes, potty breaks, walks, and plenty of playtime. But I also know that companionship matters. For cats, I believe it’s important that they don’t feel alone while you’re away. I’ll spend quality time with them, talk to them, play with them if they’re interested, and create a calm, comforting environment by simply being present. Sometimes turning on the TV, playing soft music, or just sitting with them makes a bigger difference than people realize. For dogs, I understand that they thrive on attention, exercise, consistency, and affection. Whether it’s an energetic walk, reinforcing routines, or simply giving them lots of love and reassurance, I’ll care for your dog as if they were my own. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly. My goal is always to make your time away as stress-free as possible by making sure your furry family member feels safe, loved, and well cared for until you’re home again.
Reviews

Symone was a fantastic sitter for my cat. I appreciated that she arrived on time everyday for the drop-in visits, sent photo updates, and was attentive to my cat’s feeding and play needs. I’d recommend her as a sitter to other cat parents :).

Symone is great and took excellent care of my senior cat! She kept me updated with great pictures and is very friendly.

Simone walked my 2-year-old puppy. He can be a handful but she has taken to walking him like a pro. What impressed me most was her beautiful smile when she walked in her positive attitude and her genuine affection for my Dasher.
Symone was fantastic! She is so kind and so good with cats, gave me updates in the rover notes and made sure my kitty had company and love. She also took great care of my apartment and was lovely to communicate with. I would highly recommend Symone, she’s wonderful to work with :)
