Pet care experience
Your Pet’s Favorite Sitter
Pet parents love booking with me because I provide fast communication, reliable care, and affordable rates. I typically respond within 2–3 minutes between 7am and 9pm, so you’ll never be left waiting for a response or update. I also have a flexible schedule and can often accommodate short-notice bookings, making things easy for busy pet parents. In July 2025, my heart grew four paws bigger when I brought home Bella, my sweet Goldendoodle—and I’ve loved every second of raising, training, and adventuring with her. I genuinely love spending time with dogs—it’s basically free therapy haha! 🐶 As a dedicated dog sitter and pet caregiver, I treat every dog like they’re part of my family. Whether it’s dog sitting, doggy day care, boarding, drop-in visits, or walks, I make sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I grew up with cats and fostered over 10 through the Underdog Pet Rescue of Wisconsin during college, helping them heal, build confidence, and find their forever homes (one of those special fosters even joined my parents’ family!). From vet appointments and administering medications to daily routines, enrichment, exercise, and lots of snuggles, I’ve been hands-on in every stage of pet care. Your pets will be treated like family—because that’s exactly what they are to me. 💛🐶🐱 If you’re looking for an affordable, reliable, and communicative pet sitter, I would love to meet you and your furry family members!
Qualifications
Ratings and reviews
Monica was absolutely wonderful to work with. She sent plenty of pictures and really catered to the care my puppy needed. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for care for their animals and will definitely be booking again!
This was my second time booking with Monica and she delivered wonderful care to my large pack once again! Highly recommend!
Monica was wonderful. She was so patient with our new puppy and our 2 older pets.
Monica was outstanding from our first messages until the end of the sit. I have seven pets and they can be A LOT, but Monica took care of each one with such love and patience. She kept me regularly updated with a wide array of photos and videos. I was able to really enjoy my trip knowing Monica was taking such fantastic care of my zoo at home. Cannot recommend her and her services enough! Will definitely be sending more booking requests in the future!
Monica went above and beyond! Our dog really had a great time with her and Bella, and the kitties also loved her. She sent lots of photos every day, and our dog also took me to her house once we got home because she missed her! I highly recommend Monica for all of your pet care needs.
Monica M. cancelled a booking 2 days before it was scheduled to begin.

Schedule
I work full-time from home, which allows me to provide pets with consistent attention, supervision, playtime, and care throughout the day. My schedule is structured yet flexible, making it easy to incorporate walks, feeding routines, potty breaks, enrichment activities, and plenty of cuddles without rushing. I live in a very dog-friendly apartment community that features an on-site dog park and numerous walking paths, giving dogs plenty of opportunities for exercise, exploration, and fresh air. I'm also usually available on weekends, allowing for extra companionship and one-on-one attention. I keep my calendar updated every 1–2 days and may have availability even when my calendar appears full, so please feel free to reach out. I'll always do my best to accommodate your needs and provide your pet with reliable care, a consistent routine, and lots of love. 🐾💛
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
I care for pets in a safe, loving apartment environment designed with animals in mind. My apartment is pet-friendly and includes plenty of space, cozy pet beds, and lots of toys to keep everyone comfortable and entertained. Our community features a dog park and several walking paths, providing plenty of opportunities for exercise, fresh air, and enrichment. I'm also always happy to take dogs on new adventures or stop for a pup cup treat! For overnight boarding in my home, dogs are safely crated at night (if crate trained or preferred by the owner) to help create a secure and restful environment for everyone. I'm happy to schedule a meet and greet with you and your pet ahead of time to make sure everyone feels comfortable. Please feel free to ask any questions about my services—I believe in open communication and want you to feel completely confident that your furry family member is in good hands while you're away. My home is fully pet-safe and pet-ready, with a structured, secure, and loving environment where your pet will receive plenty of attention, care, and affection. 🐾💛
Pets
A typical day
Your pet will get plenty of love and engagement while they’re with me! We enjoy lots of play time, and I have toys all over the house to keep things fun and stimulating. We’ll go on walks around the neighborhood, and if you’re comfortable with it, I’m happy to take your dog to the dog park for some extra social time. Of course, there will be lots of pets and cuddles, and we can also play games and use sniff puzzles to keep your pup mentally enriched and happy. 🐾
