More selfies with pups than people
Pet care experience
I've cared for pups and cats for about 10+ years. I'm basically every friend's "auntie" when it comes to pets and anyone and everyone I know who owns one has reached out at some pt to ask me to sit for them. I love and care for them like my own.
Reviews
Great job. Pics and updates. Will ask for Monique again !!!
Monique was great, it was our first experience with Rover and she made it a pleasant one!
Monique walked my 2dogs regularly when I was recovering from surgery. They looked forward to her coming every day. Recently I went out of town overnight and she was able to come take care of them plus the cat. Everyone was just fine in spite of some serious abandonment issues. She is loving, kind and sensitive. I felt confident leaving my loved ones in her care.
Monique was great and helped me out of a last minute jam!

I am happy to host depending on the situation and the size of your dog (small living space) . If I’m at your house, I will take care of and respect your space as if it were my own. I've sat for friends in their space many many times and leave their home cleaner than it was when I left (I don't offer cleaning services though. :) ). I appreciate very clear instructions from the pet parents and any quirks their pets might have.

Information Monique P. would like to know about your pet
I think it's super important to know your pet's quirks. If they don't like being pet somewhere or some kind of movement that might set them off. Their behaviors- do they bark a lot and why? Their eating and walking schedule is really important too. Having emergency numbers handy and all the important pertinent information always makes things go smoother.
A typical day
I love to walk so walking dogs is ideal for me, or cuddling. Throwing the ball or some kind of object they like to play with is also fun to watch. I don't prefer to take dogs I sit to dog parks where there are dogs I am not familiar with so backyard situations with obedient dogs that will come when you call them, are my favorite. :)

Availability
I work from home and my schedule tends to be flexible and am a fairly early riser. I do often head out of town on the weekends to visit my family but weekends can be flexible at times too. I also have a reliable car.
