Availability

I work remotely, which means I’m home most of the week and can provide consistent care, attention, and companionship for your pets throughout the day. My weekends are completely free, so I can accommodate longer visits, extra playtime, or special needs that require extra attention. Whether it’s daily check-ins, medication administration, or just lots of cuddles, I can fit pet care seamlessly into my routine while keeping your cat happy and comfortable.

Safety, trust & environment

I provide a safe, comfortable, and attentive environment for pets of all kinds, whether I’m caring for them in their own home or in mine. I follow each pet’s individual routine, feeding, exercise, playtime, grooming, or medication. and adjust to their unique needs and personalities. I spend time observing and interacting so I can respond appropriately, whether your pet needs extra cuddles, gentle encouragement, or space to relax. Communication with owners is important to me, so I keep you updated with messages or photos to ensure peace of mind while your furry, feathered, or scaled family member is in my care.

Information Mona G. would like to know about your pet

I like to know your pet’s routine, preferences, and any special needs ahead of time. This includes feeding schedules, medical or dietary requirements, favorite toys or activities, and anything that helps them feel comfortable and safe. The more I know about your pet’s personality and quirks, the better I can provide care that feels seamless and loving.

A typical day

I tailor activities to each pet’s personality and energy level. For dogs, that might include walks, games of fetch, or interactive toys. Cats enjoy playtime with feather wands, laser pointers, or just cozy cuddle sessions. For smaller animals or pets with special needs, I provide gentle interaction, enrichment, and attention to keep them happy and engaged. My goal is always to make sure your pet is active, stimulated, and feeling loved while you’re away.

Pet care experience

Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I’m patient, reliable, and treat every animal like they’re my own, whether that means long walks, playtime, or just quiet company for a shy or senior pet. I’m comfortable with pets of all ages and temperaments, and I make it a point to keep owners updated so you can relax knowing your furry family member is happy and cared for.

Mona is our go-to cat sitter. She is very kind, accommodating, and it’s very clear the cats are comfortable around her and love her.
