Pawsitively Perfect Pet Care
Hi there! With over five years of experience in pet sitting and dog walking, and a deep love for animals, I make it my priority to keep your pets happy, comfortable, and well-cared for. I’ve done everything from house sitting to caring for cats, dogs, and fish, along with drop-in visits and fun dog walks. I feel most comfortable with small dogs and well-behaved medium or large dogs, like the ones in my photos. I especially enjoy caring for dogs five years or older. I also have experience with senior dogs and giving medications. And as a cat lover with three cats of my own, I love spending time with feline friends too! If you’re looking for house sitting, my husband, who shares my passion for animals, would love to help out. He’s great with pets and even enjoys teaching them tricks, like “shake” or “high five.” Over the years, he’s taught tricks to cats, dogs, and even our chinchillas!

Ratings and reviews
Monica was a superstar pet sitter! She took great care of my dogs and cat-- even when one unexpectedly had an upset stomach. She sent photos on a daily basis, and I plan to rebook her.
Monica is always on time and very kind and caring. Our 3-legged doggie fell in love with her immediately. She notices right away when anyone is amiss with you doggie. She will be our first call for continued quality dog care. Thanks Monica!
She took care of my cats last month and did a really good job. When I got back home from my vacation they all seemed happy. Next time I'll consider Monica again for sure!
Monica is great taking care of my dog. She really knows how to take care of him, she takes him for walking and plays with him a lot. I recommend her! Thank you Monica.
Monica is great with my parent's bulldogs. They normally are a pain to walk since they are lazy and don't like going on walks, but Monica has a way with them and for some reason they get very excited walking with her. 10/10 would recommend her to walk your dogs!
Monica’s been walking and pet sitting my beagle for couple months and I highly recommend her. She is responsive and proactive. Im really happy with her job so far!

Schedule
I recently graduated with my master’s degree and am currently in a transitional phase while job hunting. That gives me plenty of time for dog walking and house-sitting, making this a great opportunity to spend quality time with your beloved pets this season.
