Availability
On weekends, your pet will have my full attention. Any errand outside of the house I need to run is less than an hour. I will take cues from your pet and your directions on how to occupy your pet's day. On weekdays, I work a 8-to-4 job with flexibility. I typically wake at 6:30AM, return around noon to check on pets + give attention/walk, and stay home after work. Depending on your pet's needs, we can burn off energy or unwind together before I ensure that your pet is settled in for the night with my bedroom door open for nighttime access.

Safety, trust & environment
As someone whose late dog who had medical and social needs, I will follow your care instructions for your pet in activities, mealtimes, and other concerns, along with medicine administration if needed. I will not be leaving your pet alone in the yard; your pet will be kept indoor in A/C with access to the living room and kitchen during weekdays. Please plan to bring some of your pet's comfort items (toys and treats) along with their necessities to ensure they have something from home for boarding. For new clients boarding in my home, I would ask that you are present for at least fifteen minutes when dropping off your pet to allow acclimation to the space and association with me as someone positive while you and I review care instructions for your pet. If meeting in the home is not possible for boarding, a time for your pet to meet me in a Meet & Greet is essential ahead of time. I want your pet's initial time with me to be as stress-free as possible.

Information Monica C. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if there are any concerns I should know to keep your pet safe and content. Please bring your pet's care items. I will ask detailed questions to ensure I understand ahead of the stay, and I will alert you of any concerns in the Rover reports and in timely communication if they arise. I have experience giving pills in food and, if necessary, by force for dogs and have observed/feel comfortable administering pills to cats. Bring the pill maskers for ease. Injections are possible with owner demonstration ahead of time.
A typical day

Your Pet's Personal Butler
Pet care experience
My late dog Casey (d. May 2026) was dog-reactive, and I found out firsthand how hard it is to find a dogsitter without any personal pets or other clients in the home for dogs like her when I travel. I always had at least one dog and cat in the home growing up, but Casey taught me how to set animals up for success by accepting them as they are and adjusting to their needs-- medical, emotional, and physical. For dog boarding, I would like to use my house and fenced-in yard to give other pets a quiet respite when their owners need to travel-- walks, naps, and play included-- and give owners the peace of mind that their pet is somewhere comfortable and safe when they are away. I sanitize and clean my house thoroughly after each pet's visit and pick up the dog poops from my yard to reduce any illness spread between dogs. For housesitting, I would treat your pet and house as I would want my own to be treated if a sitter stayed-- as it was left if not cleaner.

Reviews
Alright: I have three cats and a scorpion. The cats are all also a little unusual and rude. Monica is timely with food and medicine to an exacting degree. Additionally, very able to deal with an animal full on peeing on something and cleaning it up without fuss or damage to the house. Extremely mature about it. Able to feed a scorpion without hesitation or fear, which is an unusual trait. The cats love Monica so much they all tried cuddling up, and they’re usually elderly and cranky if anything. The scorpion did not try cuddling but it can’t be expected and couldn’t be desired. All in all 11/10 experience, will be having over to babysit in the future.
Monica has pet sitted for me several times, and they are great with both cats and dogs. My cat has a heart condition, so I can be pretty nervous when leaving him with people. But, Monica was attentive, followed all of my directions, and gave him the individual care he needed. They also genuinely love animals, and clearly work hard to ensure any pet they are taking care of is comfortable.
