Safety, trust & environment

I currently have one medium sized dog who LOVES having friends so if your pet is open to friends, then it would be great for them to meet! Otherwise, I have plenty of flexibility to come on my own and give your pet one-on-one care.

Information Monica R. would like to know about your pet

It is very helpful to know if your pet requires any extra attention with their health, routine or anything that stands out that you believe I should know.

A typical day

I want to enjoy any activity your pet enjoys! If they love fetch, cuddle or going on hikes I’m open to all of that! I want to be sure they are getting all the care and attention they deserve.

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Monica, and I’d love to take care of your furry family member! I’ve had dogs in my life since the age of 11, and my love for them has only grown since. These days I’m the proud dog mom of Nitro, a Cattle Dog/Border Collie mix who keeps me on my toes! I also spent several years volunteering at a dog rescue in Elverta, where I gained hands-on experience caring for dogs of all backgrounds and temperaments. Your pet is in good hands! 🐾 Please note: If you’re booking an overnight house sit, Nitro will be joining me. He’s well-behaved and friendly, but I want to make sure you’re fully comfortable before we get started. Feel free to reach out with any questions!

Monica is wonderful with my tripod cat, playing and cuddling with her. She is respectful of my home and sends adorable photos.

Monica was wonderful! From all her great communication, I could tell she treated my dog, Charlie, like he was her own! And my house was just as I left it! She gave me all the peace of mind you need when you leave your fur baby at home!
