Information Monica G. would like to know about your pet

If your large/medium dog is not walkable meaning tugs and pulls on leash and is physically strong, it would be difficult for me to walk your pet.

A typical day

I live in walking distance of a park so I’d be able to walk your pet to the park. I have a doggy bed in my office, so when I work from home, your pet would be in the comfort of getting the attention it needs.

I've been a long-time animal lover!

Pet care experience

I grew up having pets and always had a dog. I love animals and care for them as if they were little humans. My pittie has recently passed so my home is available for boarding overnight. I have a doggy door, so your pup has the ability to come in/out of the backyard. My pittie had a lot of healthcare needs and attention, so I am equipped and experienced to handle and understand the needs of pets.

She has taken care of my dog multiple times and always goes above and beyond to take extra care of my pup!

Monica was fantastic! Our dog and her got along very well. She was very accommodating with our dog’s needs. She gave frequent updates and little recaps to let us know how things were going. We would absolutely use Monica again!

Monica is a great dog sitter--this is the second time we had Monica take care of our puppy and he fell in love with her. We will definitely request Monica in the future!
