I’m happy to provide drop in visits in the morning and evening. If you live farther away, the morning visit will be a bit earlier so my husband can use the car to get to work. If you’re within walking/ cycling distance from my house or office (I work in Canterbury city centre), I can stop in as and when needed. I finish work Monday-Friday at 5.30pm and will be free to visit with your animals then. I am free most weekends or happy to plan my weekend accordingly.

Safety, trust & environment

I would follow the pet care instructions you provide to care for your animal so that they continue their normal routine and don’t get stressed out while you’re away.

Information Monica B. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know whether your furry companion is shy around humans? Do they have a specific feeding time? And most importantly, do they have a favourite toy?

A typical day

I am happy to take your dog(s) on long walks around the local area if that is what they need. Alternatively, I am happy just to play with them around the house or garden to get their energy out.

Pet care experience

Hello fellow animal lovers! I have had animals throughout my life (mostly cats, dogs, and fish) and can't get enough of them! I am a cat momma to two wonderful kitties who are my world and I’d show your animals the same affection. I’m originally from the USA and moved my cat, Franklin, to the UK with me three years ago. We adopted another kitty, Tessa, in December 2024 and I couldn’t have asked for better cat siblings. Before moving to the UK, I worked at an animal rescue charity in California and spent most of my time in the cattios soaking in the kitty snuggles. I helped with a range of jobs, from feeding, cleaning litter trays, to administering medication injections and pills. I’ve got loads of time for animals, so let’s chat about your animal care needs while you’re out of town! I’ve been caring for other people’s animals, both in house care and drop in visits, for over a decade. I can provide various duties from cleaning litter boxes, to administering medicines, and of course play time! I’m available throughout the summer and have access to a car. I’m also happy to water plants and gardens as needed and will ensure your house is well looked after while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry friends and I assure you, your animals will be in good hands so you can leave town stress free!

Monica was great with my cat, I returned home to a relaxed, well-fed and happy kitty. I also enjoyed the regular pictures of Ozzie that she sent :) it was very easy to communicate and Monica fed him exactly like I wanted. Highly recommended!

This Thanksgiving was the first time I used Rover. We have a beloved cat and wanted to make sure that we had a cat lover to take care of her. Monica B did an excellent job and sent us texts and a wonderful picture. We could relax during an out of area holiday. We highly recommend Monica and her animal loving skills. Toni T

Monica is a great drop-in sitter for our kitty! She is always communicative, makes sure all needs are met, and it's clear our cat loves to play and hang with her. We absolutely recommend Monica!
