Information Mona M. would like to know about your pet

I would prefer to know as much about your pet beforehand as possible. The easiest way is probably to write a list for me as things come to your mind.

A typical day

Routine is important - I try to maintain the schedule your pets are accustomed to as closely as possible. The fact that their family is not at home can be very confusing at first but following the daily motions as usual brings stability.

30+ Years Experience • Long Petsits

Pet care experience

I am a self-employed and I make my own schedule. I would rarely, if at all, leave your pets alone for longer than three hours at a time. I only housesit, I don’t leave your pets alone to go and walk other dogs during the day, I work from my computer from your house instead. I am glad to accept long petsit requests. Once I set up my office in your house I am fine for weeks, or even months. I have over 30 years of experience with animal care, I have cared for dogs, cats, horses, chickens, Guinea pigs, hamsters, mice, fish, turtles, macaws, cows, goats, and steer and would be glad to take care of your animals as well.

Mona took great care of my two cats and my home while I was gone. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet/house sitter.

Mona did an excellent job taking care of our home and our pup. Our pup was calm and relaxed when we returned home. She looked like she hardly missed us, lol. We’d definitely recommend Mona’s services and will request her assistance again.

Mona was incredible with my two dogs and I give her the highest rating! She watched my dogs in difficult circumstances as the blizzard hit and my power went out. Other dog sitters would have probably needed me to return early from my trip. But Mona handled the whole situation very professionally. During her stay, she sent me beautiful photos of my dogs and kept me informed everyday with a status. Mona is extremely trustworthy and was highly respectful of my home. I have already booked her for the next time I am away. Mona is absolutely wonderful!!!!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
