Nurturing Pet Lover

Pet care experience

Been doing Rover for few years now and what we love about it is when we get to share our love to different furbabies. We only take one dog at a time to ensure they have our focus. We send updates frequently and can do video call if you want to see your pup. I work from home and work only Mondays to Fridays from 7am to 4am. I can sit most days of the week unless I have travel plans. My husband and I are excited to meet your baby!

Monica and Brian were really good sitters for our dog Lola. First of all, they accepted our last minute request, we were worried about finding someone who could take care of our baby cause we were running out of time and they, after a couple of questions, said yes to our request. Then, they showed very interested in Lola’s schedule, activities and behavior which made us feel we were in good hands. They sent daily reports and pictures which was wonderful. We definitely recommend them and will book them again in future 🙌🏻👍🏻

Monica and Brian were so great with Tito who is shy but he felt very comfortable even during the meet and greet. Lots of updates on their walks and how we was doing. Definitely will repeat in the future. Thank you Monica and Brian!

Monica and her boyfriend were so amazing with Lucy - she looked like she had a wonderful time with them. She even came home with a pretty flower accessory on her collar - so cute. I would love to have her stay with them again. Lots of photos and updates during her stay. Thank you so much Monica!

I can't begin to speak enough great things about Monica & Brian! They went above & beyond for my 6 year old Japanese Akita, he has long legs & they even out his food and water on a step stool for him! He had an allergic reaction with some chicken I gave him when he was there & she was so sweet, she played baby music for him & offered to make him chicken & rice. They even offered for him to sleep on their sofa bed! She let me Facetime him a few times & sent videos & super cute pictures where I could tell he was happy & having fun. They sent tons of detailed updates & even took him to play at the dog park! He has dog reactivity issues & they handled it perfectly! There were no dogs at the park when he went. Monica is one of the most warm & caring people I have ever met. Bear adored them both! If you are lucky enough to get them to watch your furkids, you have hit the dog sitter jackpot! We will be forever thankful to them & their care for Bear, it's so hard to find anyone you can trust. We hope they'll watch him again! She even took the time to leave a little surprise for us. I wanted to cry! She truly put her heart into everything she did for Bear.

Information Monica G. would like to know about your pet

I prefer to know as much about their needs so I can prepare and evaluate if I can cater. Would be good to know their routine so we can stay as close to that while you are away.

A typical day

We do have a mini pet park where I can play with them - I prefer to have them there alone so its safer. There is also a trail beside our complex where we can walk. I enjoy playing with them using their toys.
