Pet care experience
Art Teacher who LOVES gentle giants
Hello, my name is Monica and I currently work as an art teacher. With many breaks throughout the school year and summers wide open I'm looking to fill my free time with another passion of mine, loving on strangers' pets! I've cared for pets of my own since I was in my teens and currently have two giant dogs, Holmes and Watson, and two cats. I have 12 years experience with Great Pyrenees, and since they are about as stubborn as it gets, I have full confidence that I can win over your pets as well, ha! Being a pet owner, I've worked through stressful adoption transitions, raising and training puppies, food allergies, giving medications to reluctant dogs, and helping giant arthritic seniors down the back steps. You can trust that I will always be careful, loving, fun, and responsible when it comes to your pet in your space.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fully fenced in yard and a love for gardening so my dogs, and even my cats on occasion, love playing and relaxing in the back yard with me. When not outside, we are all smooshed together lounging on the couch with unlimited pets and a good book. I would love to be able to drop in and make your dog/cat feel just as loved and cared for when you are away or working. I'm an annoyingly tidy person so please trust that your home will look just as neat and clean as when you left and any puppy accidents taken care of. You and your pet will have peace of mind and your pet unlimited cuddles with every drop-in.

Monica is fantastic at communicating with us while caring for our dogs. She is attentive to any changes in their behavior and shares with us right away.
Monica is fabulous. My cat is so shy but she warmed up to Monica right away. It gives me great peace of mind when I travel to know that she’s in Monica’s capable care.

Schedule
My schedule throughout the summer will be wide open starting in June and going until late August. Throughout the school year I will be sure to update during breaks where I am, again, fully open. On a typical school week, I will be available on weekends and here and there as needed for nightly drop-ins on weekdays. If you have any questions at all please feel free to reach out and I'd be happy to chat with you!
