Dog walker for 9 years

Pet care experience

I have been a dog walker/sitter since March of 2013. I am extremely flexible and available on short notice. My number one priority is to give your pet the care it needs. I have plenty of experience caring for animals both big and small. I have had many dogs throughout my life, mostly two at a time. Growing up, I’ve had an American Eskimo and a miniature poodle as pets. I assisted in their daily care and training. I currently have a chihuahua mix and Yorkshire terrier. I feel very competent to care for any pet from any family and of any size. I also have experience caring for multiple cats and fish. I currently have two aquatic pets - a betta and an axolotl. I believe in communicating with clients, so I will make sure to keep you updated with plenty of photos and texts so you know how much fun your pet is having in my care. I am responsible and punctual, and take your dog’s care very seriously. I will be sure to follow your care instructions and to treat your dogs with the same love and kindness that I give my own pets.

Monica was great! She took such good care of our dog and two cats. We didn’t worry about them once while we were on vacation!

Monica was GREAT with Sophie. Sophie greeted her like family when she came to drop off the key. We would recommend Monica without reservation, and plan to use her again the future. Thank you, Monica!!!

Monica is awesome -- she kept me updated and sent plenty of pictures of my dog. I knew from the start that she was knowledgable and capable with any type of dog, and felt very at ease leaving Ody in her care!

Information Monica F. would like to know about your pet

Before a stay, I will be happy to schedule a meet and greet so that you and your dog or cat can get to know me. I would like to analyze their behavior around new situations and people, and make sure that they are as comfortable in my care as they can be.

In my free time, I enjoy running and working out. I am very physically active and can keep up with even the most energetic dogs.
