Highlights
Pet care experience
Pets are our passion and mission 💗
I grew up with cats and dogs since was a teenager. I have taken care of dogs and cats of all kinds for my family and neighbors for the past decade. Personally, I raised 1 dog and 3 cats of my own and poured all of my love to my babies/best friends over the years. I love cuddling and playing with our fur friends and seeing their happy reactions always make my day brighter. I also have a secret power to train cats! My two little kitties that I used to raise can sit, high-five and lay down. Currently I’m living with my husband who is also a massive loving pet fan. One of my biggest “fear” or “issue” is that I always fall in love with different fur friends during my trips, and leaving them at the end of the travel makes me heartbroken. I will love your fur baby with all my heart!

Ratings and reviews
Tremendous host. We really appreciated all of the photos, videos and updates regarding our sweet pups. It was so comforting to know that they were in good hands. Thank you :)


I can’t rave enough about Monika and Alejandro! I within minutes of meeting back in good hands. They kept Ruby for three nights while I traveled out of town and they kept me updated every step of the way. I loved receiving photos of Ruby on their balcony and on walks throughout the day. Even when Ruby was having a little tummy issue, Monica and Alejandro were so kind to check in and let me know when the situation improved. We’re so happy to have found our sitters in Jersey City!

Monica looked after our dog for a longer stay, during the visit she was well cared for, with lots of walks, attention and frequent updates for us. My dog had a great time, and would certainly recommend and use again in future

Monica and Alejandro are amazing with Caramel. He’s a shy dog who takes time to open up, but they make him feel at ease every time. This was his second stay, and their daily updates and genuine care really stand out. Highly recommend!

Monica always does so much for Mia - giving so much love and attention. Mia is always super excited and knows when we're walking to drop her off at Monica's. Thanks again!!!

Monica and Al took wonderful care of our corgi, Winston. My wife and I were nervous as this was the first time we were away from Winston since we adopted him this year, but Monica and Al sent us regular updates multiple times a day and we could see that our pup was well cared for and happy. They showed him so much love and affection. They were also able to handle Winston's dog reactivity and it was a very smooth boarding. We are sure Winston would love to see them again!

Schedule
I’m currently working full-time at home so I can dedicate my love to your pet babies during any day of the week. I will have plenty of time playing with your fur babies and walking them during the day and evening.
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced outdoor area in my apartment for the fur babies to get fresh air and a few dog parks downstairs, and a nice long river sidewalk steps away
A typical day
I love to socialize with your pets mentally and physically. For dog babies, I will play games, cuddle them with love and have walks around the neighborhood next to Hudson River or visit the dog parks nearby. Engaging with them as much as I can to get their energies out. For cat babies I love playing with them if they are in the mood, and give them lots of cuddles!
