This was our second time booking with Monica, and she is truly a wonderful sitter! She takes the absolute best care of Kona whenever I’m out of town, and I always feel completely at ease knowing Kona is with her. Her communication is amazing. Monica sends frequent updates and the sweetest photos that I genuinely look forward to every day. It’s so clear how much she cares about the pets she watches and makes sure they’re happy, comfortable, and incredibly well cared for. I cannot say enough good things about Monica and will absolutely continue booking with her. Highly recommend! ❤️

Monica was amazing with our little boy Blue! She was patient, attentive, and kind from start to end. He had so much fun cuddling and going on walks with her all weekend. Monica was also incredibly gracious and understanding when my flight was delayed an hour and we had to pick up Blue late. Thank you for keeping our boy so safe and happy! ☺️🩵🩵

Monica was amazing. Send me pictures every day and give me updated about everything that’s happening. She took great care of my puppy and Luna really enjoyed her time with Monica.

Monica was an amazing pet sitter, and we had such a positive experience with her! She was incredibly attentive to our dog and consistently sent daily updates, including the cutest photos and little notes about their day together. She was also very communicative and proactive—when Kona wasn’t feeling well, she kept me informed and reassured, which gave me so much peace of mind. Due to unexpected flight issues, we had to extend Kona’s stay twice, and Monica was so understanding and flexible each time. We truly appreciated her kindness and willingness to work with our schedule. We would absolutely recommend Monica and would 100% book with her again!

Monica was incredibly understanding and gave my pup the space she needed. She was also mindful of my anxiety and kept me updated regularly. I’m grateful to have found her and would happily trust her with my pup again.

Monica was fantastic! I will for sure be re-booking with her whenever I need more dog sitting. She was incredibly friendly, a great communicator, and my dog had a great time with her. I am very happy with her service!

Schedule

I work a traditional Monday through Friday schedule (remotely with a self-made schedule) and am available for boarding and other services during this time and weekends. I can accommodate to any needs! ⚠️However, because I like to keep my scheduling open for pups staying overnight, I may not be the best fit for parents who want repeat services (e.g., Monday-Friday weekly). Besides that, I am open!

Safety, trust & environment

I closely follow each pet’s routine, training plan, and care instructions to ensure consistency and security. Because of my apartment size, small and medium sized dogs are generally a great fit! I have access to an elevator with a private garden for potty time.

A typical day

I love walks and playing with fur babies and giving them the best time ever! I also love to relax and have lazy days, so I am a match for all different types of energy levels.

I have no preference really. All I ask is for communication and expectations to be clear if there are any unique accommodations for your baby.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
