Pet care experience

My philosophy is if you're not covered in dog hair, your life is empty. Animals and dogs have forever been a part of my life. So taking care of them came to me like second nature. I have worked with several dog daycare and boarding facilities, learning crucial skills and lessons along the way. I have also had a personal business for dog walking and sitting. I love working with all sizes and breeds of pups. Whether your fur baby has tons of energy to get out, or needs a snuggle buddy on the couch. My flexible schedule allows me to come stay in your home while you're away. Or visiting during the day for potty walks, medications, or feedings. I have experience in administering medications in pill, liquid, topical and injection forms. If you have multiple pets in your household: the more the merrier!

I was very nervous to have someone watch my 2 large, and sometimes unfriendly Akitas. But, I was so relieved with them in Monica’s hands. She did great with them and kept in touch with me while we were away (even sent pics). We’ll definitely contact Monica again the next time we go out of town. It was a great experience and I wish we would’ve started using Monica a long time ago!

Monica was a wonderful house sitter. Our dog and other pets were well taken care of and she left the house in great condition. We will certainly book her again!

Monica did a great job with both of my babies. Daphne can be a handful but she settled right in with Monica. Knowing both of them were getting spoiled and taken care of helped me really enjoy my vacation. I would definitley use again.

She did a fine job. The house was very clean when I got back from my trip and the dogs appeared just fine

Information Monica H. would like to know about your pet

I love all sizes, breeds, and energy levels the same. Whether you have one dog, or five, I welcome them all. I also love kitties as well! I just ask for written directions if there is anything specific I need to do, or know. Do not ever feel like you are over sharing.. the more communication the better!

A typical day

If your pup has a favorite walk, park, or lake they love to romp around, just let me know! Which ever adventure makes your dog the happiest. I am familiar with quite a few parks, beaches and hikes that are very dog friendly that I would love to take them to. Or if they just want to play fetch in their own backyard! I take numerous photos of your pups and can send them to you while you're gone. Just so you have the peace of mind that they are still being loved and taken care of.
