Fun, Caring and Loving Sitter!
Pet care experience
I grew up with big, goofy labradors as my furry siblings — I know how to handle energetic, big love bugs as well as a small, cuddly fur babies and every kind of dog in between! Neighbors, friends and family have always relied on me to help care for their furry family member. So let me care for your best friend(s) while you’re away!
Reviews
I cannot say enough good things about Monica! She was responsible, responsive, skilled, and wonderful. She sent me photos which I loved! Mostly, she just did an outstanding job caring for my dogs. My larger dog is sweet but under certain circumstances needs you to be very attentive when you are walking him. Monica understood this instantly and deeply and even helped Juju to behave well in the situations most challenging for him. The dogs clearly enjoyed themselves. She left my home spotless.
Amazing! Couldn't be happier, and I highly recommend her. This was my first experience with a pet sitter and I feel very lucky that it was Monica. Came home to a happy, calm, and healthy kitty. Monica will be my go to pet sitter in the future! :)
Monica is very professional, and goes above and beyond every time. Her love for animals is very clear and she does a great job taking care of them, and has always been prompt and dilligent. She's great about getting the dogs exercised and follows any sort of schedule or guidance given to a T, and then goes the extra mile! Any time I've ever needed help I've gone straight to her.
Monica is incredibly kind, caring, and responsible. When she would come to take care of my Labrador we could always count on her to give our girl exercise and lots of love. Monica is a wonderful and caring dog sitter. I could relax knowing she was taking care of my home and my dog I highly recommend her!
About Monica M.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I quickly learn what your pet(s) needs are after meeting them! If they’re super active you can expect daily walks around meal times, playing fetch, etc. If your pet likes to snooze for most of the day and keep to themselves, I respect their need for space and give them pets and love when they show me that they want it.
Information Monica M. would like to know about your pet
NO BREED PREFERENCE Level of friendliness — is the dog very friendly to strangers? Or is it skittish? Are they good on a leash for walks/runs/hiking? Do they like car rides? What are they scared of? (i.e. thunder storms, planes, vacuum cleaners, etc.)
A typical day
I am always happy to go to a local parks/trail close to your home. If the weather is nice, and the pet is happy to be in the car, I would take them to Mt Tom. I’m very generous with belly rubs and scratches behind the ears. I generally reward dogs with love and pats rather than treats, but I always have some in my pocket on walks.

Currently, my schedule is fairly open and flexible. I typically work part time M-F 9a-1p. I keep on top of my schedule so there isn’t any miscommunication.
