Pet care experience

Reliable and caring animal lover!

My family had a golden retriever when I was younger and I have been an animal lover ever since! I have experience with walking dogs and daily check ins as well as overnight stays. I am a big believer in knowing your animals will be left in a loving and engaging environment. I do have experience in administering medications as well, and have worked with a range of puppies to older dogs. Most of my professional experience is with dogs, chickens, and bunnies but I do have a special place in my heart for other animals and especially cats since I have one of my own :) I love to play with any dog I meet so getting to share some love with yours would be the highlight of my day!

House Sitting • Oct 09, 2025

Monica was wonderful with our 5-year-old Staffy! She came to meet him twice before the first sitting, took detailed notes, and asked thoughtful questions to make sure she understood his routine. Throughout her visits, she kept us updated with photos and nightly summaries, which gave us great peace of mind. We could tell our pup was happy and well cared for — highly recommend Monica!

I have known Monica many years, and she is responcible, personable, and she loves animals of all kinds. Monica has cared for dogs, cats, bunnies and chickens so she is quite experienced! I would not hesitate to have Monica care for my pets, and feel completely comfortable knowing that they would be pampered and loved as if they were her own!

I have known Monica, and her family for 20 plus years. I would not hesitate to recommend her for ANY job, whether it is dog, house, or even babysitting. She is trustworthy, and very reliable. Per the pics she send me when she is here, its obvious my dogs have felt and been comfy, and well taken care of while she is in charge. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend for any job.

My 13 year old lab, Rocket, loves Monica and so do I! Monica loves animals and cares for mine impeccably. In addition, she is honest and trustworthy. I never worry about my dog or my house when Monica is there. You're not going to do better for a pet sitter.
