Our Team
Simon Broer | Co-Owner & President
Born and raised in Toronto, Simon first discovered his passion for construction and design while renovating his home in Riverdale. What started as a personal project quickly turned into a deep interest in the craft of building and problem-solving, leading him to take the leap, leaving the corporate world to pursue a career in construction and design.
From the beginning, Simon wanted to offer a better renovation experience—one that prioritized clear communication, thoughtful planning, and high-quality craftsmanship. He saw too many homeowners feeling overwhelmed by the process and knew there was a way to make it smoother, more collaborative, and ultimately more rewarding. By working with some of the best trades in the city and focusing on respect and professionalism, he has built a company that reflects these values.
Outside of work, Simon spends most of his time with his wife, Allie, and their German Shorthaired Pointer, Olive—a.k.a The Spotted Dog. Whether tackling their own home projects or getting outside with Olive, they bring the same care and attention to their own space that they do to their clients' homes.
Allie Broer | Co-Owner & Design Coordinator
Allie is the creative force behind what we do. With a keen eye for detail and a passion for quality, Allie oversees every aspect of the design process, from selecting paint colors and flooring to choosing textiles, furniture, and decor.
Her ability to distill complex design ideas into forms that are easily understood makes her an integral part of our team, helping to visually deliver Spotted Dog’s vision!
Outside of her work as a consultant and her design role within Spotted Dog Construction, Allie spends most of her free time trying to corral Simon and Olive!
Olive | The Spotted Dog
Meet Olive, the Spotted Dog. Olive is a champion ball catcher, site supervisor, and heat hog extraordinaire!
When not chasing balls, you can find her chasing every squirrel, raccoon and bird in Riverdale, or sunbathing in the backyard.
Olive is always happy to perform final site signoffs prior to inspection, although her hourly rate is astronomical!
