Working Wife & Mom with pets


A Simpler Life has simply been a lifesaver for me.


I have used them while on vacation, and when there have been family emergencies.


I have four dogs, and a lizard, and I have never been worried about whether or not they would receive the proper care.


In fact, I believe that the love and attention my animal family members received was above and beyond my expectation.


A Simpler Life has also done grooming for my dogs. I don’t have the time to do all the brushing on my dogs, and they were groomed perfectly to fit that aspect of my lifestyle. They were trimmed nice and short. My dogs came home happy and much cooler!


I know that when my dogs are in the care of A Simpler Life, they are well loved and looked after. My dogs love them, and so do I!

 

Testimonial for

“A Simpler Life Pet and Personal Services”


by Karen

Working professional with pets with special needs

            I found “A Simpler Life Pet and Personal Services” through my local Civic Association Newsletter…And at just the right time in the life of my animals.

            My aging, 13 year old Golden Retriever Mix was failing in health, and was diagnosed with congestive heart failure in July 2009.  She was immediately put on heart medicine and Lasix, which caused increased urination.  I was slated to return to work about 3 weeks later, and I KNEW I was going to have to find someone to help care for Frannie, while I was at work.  I interviewed two possible candidates for this job.  While both were very sensitive to my animals, Billie-Jo demonstrated a level of professionalism that I really appreciated.  She was prompt and well prepared, and we seemed to have a connection, based upon our professional backgrounds.   I hired Billie-Jo to care for my canine, but within approximately 2 months, she willingly stepped in to help out with my sickly feline, Bridgette.  Bridgette had been ill with no diagnosis until the end of September 2009, when she was diagnosed with Lymphoma.  I knew her time was limited, but I believe that she was able to survive longer than most in her situation because Billie-Jo willingly provided needed care to her as well.  In January 2010, my little Bridgette took her last breath, and Billie-Jo was available to support me through this difficult time.


            Billie-Jo always keeps me posted (through detailed notes and phone calls if needed) on the condition of my little ones while in her care.  She is observant and goes above and beyond what she was hired to do.  She has a true affection for animals and their owners.  This is not a “job” for her, but a passion. 

            I sincerely appreciate all that Billie-Jo has done, and continues to do, to support me and my family of animals.  I know Frannie loves when she comes to the house to care for her because she feels her love and sincerity.

            I HIGHLY recommend the services of, “A Simpler Life Pet and Personal Services”, with Billie-Jo Altier as the owner/operator.  If you want quality care, give her a call.

      

 I met Billy Jo and her 2 German Shepherds when she called about coming to my therapy dog class in 2009. I was proud to have her as my client and now I am even prouder to be her client. Billy Jo walks my dog Tra ,who is a registered therapy dog with me,  he loves to see her pull into my driveway. I just recently had Billy do some house cleaning for me and I was so pleasantly surprised to come home to a comfortable clean home, wall to wall.

I have given her cards out to my neighbors, because it is hard to find someone you can trust with your animals as well as with your home and I can say I totally trust Billy Jo.

Tra is a sweet, loving Doberman I rescued from Hand Me Down Dobes the end of May of 2009 and he is the love of my life. I lost my loving German Shepherd Hunter the 1st of May to spinal disease, he is still in my home in his crystal cabinet. I know that Hunter sent Tra to me to love and take care of me and to share in my visits to Doctors Hospital, also to help me in my therapy dog classes to be my demo dog and he sent Billy Jo to help take care of me & Tra also.

I am also proud to say that Billy Jo is mine & Tra’s  friend.
