The bigger the dog;bigger the heart

Pet care experience

I’ve taken care of my own dorks and friends/family/neighborhood dogs for ~8 years now. I’ve taken time to familiarize myself with setting up as an Alpha at the home, different types of training for different dogs, what special needs some breeds have (I own a Dalmatian... I understand special needs Jaja). I’ve taken care of cats, too! While I’d say I’m a dog person, I do love watching cats and am deeply jealous of everyone that can get good cat belly scratches (a secret pleasure normally only given to cats actual owners).

Great in home sitter. We've used her twice. Once for a short weekend, and once for a long 8 day trip. Both times she exceeded our expectations. Thank you!

Monica did a great job. This was our first time using rover, we did the stay at our home option. Monica even helped me get my garden watered. She sent updates and questions about the cat and dog with photos. We will definitely use her again.

Monica took such great care of my pup while I was out of town. She was awesome at giving him the care and attention he needed!

Monica is so great with the pups! I’ve seen her with both small and big dogs giving them so much love and taking them on walks! I’d trust her with my dogs, no question about if they’d get lots of attention

Safety, trust & environment

If you let me take care of your precious babies I can promise frequent updates with photos (because I know I miss my pups when I’m away from home!). They will be treated as royalty, and I’ll be sure they’re looking happy and healthy while you’re away. Ask me for photo dumps of your babies while you’re away - I’ll send as many as you’d like!!

Information Monica G. would like to know about your pet

Any special needs (dietary, attention, affection)? What are their special toys, or are they anxious? What has your care currently been for your baby and how can I provide the same or higher quality of care while under my watch?

A typical day

I have many routes planned out across Lufkin and College Station, TX, for safe dog walking and can walk/run up to 5 miles at a time. Jiji (my Dal) and Mears (my lab) both walk 2 miles daily-I leash trained both myself. Dogs will be shown to stay on the leash and close, for safety.

I became unemployed last month, and am currently applying to WFH options. Because of this, I have a lot of free time to take care of pets! I can fit most schedules, but will take every other weekend off.
