Safety, trust & environment

Your pet(s) safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a secure, welcoming home with a fully fenced yard for safe outdoor time and a quiet, dog-friendly neighbourhood perfect for walks. Do you have a dog that isn’t so keen on canine companionship? Not to worry! We provide a split yard, and my dog is good at respecting boundaries if another dog isn’t interested in interactions. This is a kennel-free home, however we do have a kennel indoor if that is a part of your pet(s) safety routine. Other than that I provide a dog bed or if your dog is a snuggler, they are welcome to sleep on the bed with me. My senior dog is gentle and playful, offering a calm companionship to your fur baby. My cats keep to themselves and if needed, I can always separate pets who aren’t comfortable with one another. I have a separate litter box for your cat(s) to use that is kept in another area of the home to prevent any territory conflict. Overall, I create a structured, supervised environment where every pet feels safe, relaxed, and right at home.

Information Monica E. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your pet(s) have any specific needs or medical conditions, as well as any behavioural or temperament issues. Please also provide proof that pets are fully vaccinated with rabies upon booking. To give the best care, I have to be aware of any issues to assure the safety of all pets and myself included.

A typical day

I provide a safe, and welcoming environment for both dogs and cats, whether they’re joining me for onboarding or regular daycare. Each day is thoughtfully balanced with engaging activities and plenty of rest. Dogs enjoy scheduled walks, supervised outdoor play in a secure, fenced yard, and opportunities to explore a calm, dog-friendly neighborhood. Indoor time includes enrichment, relaxation, and positive social interaction. Cats are given a peaceful space to settle in, along with gentle play, attention, and cozy areas to relax at their own pace. A big part of the experience is companionship—both from me and my own friendly pets. My senior dog offers a calm, playful presence for visiting dogs, helping them feel more at ease and engaged. I don’t ever take on more than one client for onboarding at a time which allows me to be attentive to your pet(s) personality, energy level, and comfort, making adjustments to ensure they feel safe, stimulated, and cared for throughout their stay. Whether it’s a playful pup or a more independent cat, every pet receives individualised attention, affection, and a consistent routine that feels like home.

Pet care experience

Caring for animals has always been at the heart of my home and my life. I share my space with a senior dog and two cats, all of whom are treated as cherished family members. My dog is a rescue I welcomed at 2 years old—she initially struggled with anxiety and trust, but through patience, compassion, self-education, and consistent training, she has grown into an incredibly gentle and loving companion. I also opened my home to my older cat after she was abandoned and had the joy of raising her kitten, who is now my second cat. They are both calm, affectionate, and bring so much warmth into my home. Beyond my own pets, I’ve been caring for animals for over 20 years. Since my teenage years, I’ve provided boarding and drop-in care for dogs and cats belonging to friends and family, as well as helping care for stray cats in my community. These experiences have shaped my approach to pet care—I am attentive, dependable, and committed to going above and beyond. From maintaining a safe, comforting environment to providing thoughtful, well-balanced meals, every detail matters. Each pet in my care is treated with the same kindness, respect, and dedication I give my own, because I truly believe they are family.

Monica was amazing. She shares the same love for my pets as I do. She is very careful and very loving. I would highly recommend her.

Monica was fantastic when it came to taking care of my cat, Minerva, while I was serving overseas. She cared for her for a few months, attending to her every need, including playing fetch, giving hugs, and catering to her specific diet. My cat has high anxiety and is afraid of other animals, but Monica managed to train her to be comfortable and even playful with her dog. I was really impressed with Monica’s dedication, time, and efforts she gave to my cat. Minerva almost didn’t want to come back home with me!

Monica did an exceptional job taking care of my dog Louise. She not only took great photos to share updates but kept us informed every step of the way when anything popped up!

I can’t recommend Monica enough! She watched my dog, Bruno and my cat Kelso, for five days while I was away, and I honestly think they were sad to see me come home lol. It was a relief to get regular updates in detail and photos and videos of Bruno playing in the yard and interacting with Kelso which really let me relax and enjoy my trip. Monica treated them like her own, and it shows in how happy and relaxed they were when I walked through the door. If you’re looking for someone who truly 'gets' animals and is 100% trustworthy, look no further!"
