Pet care experience

❤️ Your Pet's Second Best Friend

I've loved and cared for animals for over 15 years. Growing up, I had both cats and dogs, and caring for them has always been a big part of my life. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, play with, and care for their pets while they were away. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and routine, so I always take the time to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing with company, I'll make sure they receive the attention and care they deserve. As a mom, I'm patient, responsible, and attentive to details. I treat every pet as if they were my own and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away.

If you need someone to look after your fur baby, look no further than Monica! She has babysat my dog, Woozy, multiple times and is truly amazing with him. Monica has years of experience from raising her own dog, and that expertise shows in how confident and comfortable she is with pets. She isn't just someone who watches dogs; she truly loves them. Her professionalism, reliability, and warm heart make her standout choice. Woozy and I are both so incredibly lucky to have her!

Afro has been my companion since he was just 2 months old, and after 10 years together, he is so much more than a pet—he is part of my family and the most important being in my life. That's why every time I have to travel and can't take him with me, leaving him in someone else's care has always been difficult. Meeting Monica and her family has been such a blessing. From the very beginning, they made me feel that Afro would be loved and cared for as if he were their own. He is a very social, playful, and incredibly spoiled dog, and with them he has found a home where he receives all the love, attention, and care he needs while I'm away. The peace of mind I have knowing that Afro is happy, safe, and surrounded by people who genuinely care about him is priceless. I am deeply grateful to Monica and her family. They have given me something priceless: the peace of mind of knowing that Afro is loved even when I can't be with him.

Monica was absolutely amazing with my cat! From the moment we met, I could tell she genuinely loves animals. She was professional, reliable, and kept me updated, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. My cat was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for when I returned. Monica treated my cat as if it were her own—with so much love, patience, and attention. It's not easy to find someone you can fully trust with your pet, but I would not hesitate to book with her again. I highly recommend Monica to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and dependable pet sitter. She truly goes above and beyond!

Monica took amazing care of my two cats, and I couldn’t be happier with her service. From the very beginning, she was reliable, professional, and genuinely caring. It was clear that she loves animals and treated my cats with the same patience and affection that I would. She kept me updated with messages and photos, which gave me real peace of mind while I was away. My cats were happy, relaxed, and well cared for when I returned, and it was obvious they had been getting plenty of attention and love. I highly recommend Monica to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter. She went above and beyond, and I would absolutely ask her to care for my cats again in the future. Thank you, Monica, for your outstanding care!

Schedule

I work from home, which allows me to spend plenty of quality time with the pets in my care. If your pet enjoys companionship, they're welcome to relax beside me in my home office while I work. Throughout the day, I take regular breaks for walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, and lots of affection. My flexible schedule allows me to provide consistent attention, making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and never left alone for long periods. I enjoy having pets around, and I treat every one of them as part of the family while they're with me.

Safety, trust & environment

My home offers a safe and pet-friendly environment with a fully fenced backyard for supervised outdoor time, as well as a large open green space directly in front of the house that's perfect for walks, sniffing, and exercise. Every pet has different needs, so I always follow the owner's instructions regarding routines, feeding, exercise, sleeping arrangements, and any special care requirements. If your dog is crate-trained or you prefer them to be crated during certain times, I'm happy to accommodate that. My goal is to make your pet feel as comfortable as possible by maintaining their normal routine. I also have two young boys, ages 10 and 3, so I ask that pets staying in our home are comfortable around respectful children. We believe in creating a calm, loving environment where every pet feels safe, welcome, and part of the family.

A typical day

Every pet is treated like part of the family while they're in my care. We'll enjoy walks around the neighborhood, playtime in my fully fenced backyard, sniffing adventures, games, and plenty of cuddle time if they enjoy affection. Since I work from home, your pet will receive lots of attention throughout the day rather than being left alone. My two young children also love animals and enjoy gently playing with friendly dogs and cats, giving them even more companionship and affection. I'll always keep your pet's regular feeding, potty, and exercise routine to help them feel comfortable, safe, and happy.
