All pets are family

Pet care experience

My fiance and I have been doing Rover together for 3 years, and I have 5 years of wonderful pet sitting under my belt. We do boarding and house sitting (I do the house sitting while he stays home with our pups), walks, drop-in's etc. We have cared for single dogs and families of 4 dogs and LOVE it!! We have experiences with golden doodles, boxers, all toy breeds, labs, pits, rotties, husky, shepherds, plenty of rescues big and small and all the mixes between! We currently have 3 rescues: 12 year old daschund mix, a 5 year old beagle mix and a 4 year old healer mix. They are all extremely relaxed pups and love it when new friends come stay. Should your pup like to play, they will play, should they want to relax, they will not bother them one bit. We also have experience raising our little girls 7 puppies before they went to their forever homes. We will spoil your pets as if they were our own. We do stick to a routine and have a large park right behind our building where we would go for all of our walks. During the weekends, we like to go for a long walk around the various forest preserves around the area, or find a new one in the next town. (If you prefer we not take your pup here, no worries). We are free most weekends and love spending the day surrounded by fur babies! I also have had kittens and cats and would be happy to open my home to them as well, or check in/play and stay with them should they want to stay in their home.

Monica did an excellent job. She was so good with my dog Rugger. She sent us lots of pictures and Rugger looked like he was having the time of his life! He is a senior dog and she took such good care of him! Thanks Monica look forward to seeing you again! Teresa

Monica did an excellent job taking care of our 2 dogs. She continuously kept us updated and sent pictures. She obviously knows how to handle dogs and our dogs were not stressed when we came home. This was our first time using Rover and we will definitely be using Monica in the future!

Monica and Eric were absolutely fantastic! The took the time to talk with us on a meet and greet a few days before we dropped our dog off. Our little guy had a great time with them and they sent multiple picutures thoroughout the day. We will definitely be using them in the future!

Monica was an exceptional dog/house sitter! She was flexible with our needs, stuck to our dogs schedule, brushed them, made them treats, brought them bones and toys, played with them and loved them like her own dogs! We got plenty of picture and video updates, and had total peace of mind while we left our dogs for 2 weeks. We are so grateful to have found her and will absolutely use her for all future travel. Do not hesitate to use Monica, you won’t regret it!
