Fit and active dog lover!

Pet care experience

I’ve loved and cared for countless of dogs including my own and those of my extended family and friends. I’m an avid walker and thoroughly enjoy long, brisk daily walks, preferably with a canine companion! At this time I cannot commit to having my own pet, so Rover fits my lifestyle perfectly. I also love spending time and spoiling my Grand Dog Cookie!❤️🍪😀

Our Boxer was very well cared for and Monica provided regular updates, pics and videos. She is clearly an avid dog lover and we felt very trusting in her ability to provide a safe and enjoyable weekend for our dog. Many thanks!
