Pet care experience

Pet-loving medical student😊

I’ve taken care of dogs for 18 years ranging from my family’s American Eskimo to my older sister’s pit bull/ lab mix when she joined the military to my younger sister’s American Bull Terrier. I’ve taken care of puppies to senior dogs, as well as cats and birds. I enjoyed feeding, walking, playing with them and even have taken them to vet and grooming visits as needed.

Safety, trust & environment

Caring for your pets in the proper and safest way is my top concern. I would like to go over your daily schedule with them, what you would like them to eat/ when and how much, their exercise routine, their personality, and more to ensure they are safe and healthy at all times. I will also go over with you the proper way to put on their leash and harness to ensure I am doing it correctly and in a safe manner. If I see something of concern such as not eating, feeling ill, etc. I will be sure to contact you ASAP to get your pet any possible treatment to get them feeling better in no time. Additionally, I would love to meet with you and your pet prior to scheduling any services to ensure you and your pet trust me.

Monica took excellent care of our 3 dogs and one cat during a week long house sit. They all adored her! She was very professional and took excellent care of our home as well. Sending us daily updates and pictures. Each of them had lots of TLC from her and we would definitely recommend her to anyone in need of in home care!

Monica was so great with our two dogs, one of which had just had surgery. She kept us updated on how the dogs were doing while we were away and was also very responsible with our home. We will definitely be using her again if she’s available!

Monica has been such a great help for my family! She has cared for and helped petsit my cat, Ozzy, for the past 4 years when I would travel or be away from home and required assistance. I trust Monica because her attentive and warm level of care is reflected in her pleasant and professional demeanor, and my picky kitty instantly gravitated towards her too! Monica is responsive, respectful and reliable; thus, I strongly recommend her for other pet owners!

Monica was very caring and gentle with my American BullTerrior Kobe! He is very playful and full of energy and Monica could handle it all. She followed feeding & walking directions and also kept me updated with Kobe while away. Monica has a history of caring for various dogs and it truly shows. You will not regret Monica watching your furry friends!
