Amazing experience. She was responsive, super friendly, and our dog loved it so much that when I started walking when I picked her up it stopped and pulled because Monica was being left behind!! Will be for sure our top pick for sitting. Thanks so much!

Monica was in excellent boarding sitter for my dog Nyla. She communicated quickly and efficiently, took excellent care of nyla including administration of oral and eye medications, and sent regular updates with photos, which were so nice. She also showed me her home, and set up a safe And warm space for my dog to be while she was gone. I can tell my dog was excellently cared for and I’m so thankful for her care 10 out of 10 would recommend.

Safety, trust & environment

I am extremely vigilant regarding pets both indoors and outdoors. I pay careful attention to the personalities and needs of pets in my care and don’t hesitate to provide whatever care necessary. I am considerate of public safety and responsibility which extends to any pets in my care.

A typical day

I love to start the day with kisses and affection! Your dog will be exposed to a mentally and physically rich environment. I love slow walks through quiet streets and fun games! Cats make the rules, I follow. I love laser pointers & yarn toys! Your pet will be treated like royalty.

I am open to working with pets of all temperaments and believe active dialogue can avoid majority of conflicts. Tell me about your pet! My patience is limitless.
