Experienced Animal Lover

Pet care experience

Hello My Name is Monica, I have loved dogs, cats and horses all my life and have two cats of my own. I have cared for many dogs growing up ranging from puppies to seniors. Having grown up with pets from a wide age range gives me knowledge on giving medicine, training, and overall care of dogs. I have dog sat a 5 month old puppy for 5 days before in an apartment complex where I fed, played, and walked the puppy. When walking the puppy I taught it some leash manners and took him to the dog park. I currently have 2 cats and love taking care of them. One of my previous jobs gave me the opportunity to interact with horses on a work basis including, feeding, grooming, saddling and riding. Another one of my jobs showed me how to care for and feed reptiles. As you can see I love animals and love working with them. Please consider me for taking care of your fur babies/ pets.

Monica did a fantastic job watching our dog! She was attentive and kept us updated with daily photos and videos. She was comfortable actually staying at our house to make sure our dog always flet at ease. If you're looking for an amazing dog sitter look no futher.

Monica has been taking care of our pup Zeus since he was 10 weeks old. He is now 6 months old and we will continue to use her for all of our walking and sitting needs. She cares for him like he’s her own. We have used Monica for daily walks and have also had her stay in our home for 5 days with Zeus while we were on vacation. She is very trustworthy and responsible. Monica shows up on time and gives us a summary of Zeus’ walks/poops/pees/good and naughty behaviors. She has such great patience especially since he’s just a puppy. She has such great passion for helping animals and even helps us keep his training on track (she uses all of our code words and hand commands with him). She sends us photos from her walks and beach trips/dog park visits and FaceTimed us while we were away on vacation. We even have taken Zeus on weekend walks and people recognize our pup and have said “oh we met Zeus with Monica... she’s great” this goes to show that Monica cares about him and is so friendly with people too! I can’t recommend Monica enough! Pups would be lucky to have her care of them

Safety, trust & environment

Every pet has there own personal needs, some dogs like to play fetch others like relaxing at home. Some cats like cuddling others like chasing toys. Depending of what your pets needs are I will do what you need for your pet to feel safe and happy.

Information Monica S. would like to know about your pet

I do not have a breed preference but I would love to meet the pet before sitting them. I would like to know the pets personality, behaviors, if they are food aggressive, and if they have any health problems I should know about. I would require the number to your vet in case of emergencies.

A typical day

While caring for dogs I can take them to your favorite walking location and depending on your dogs personality we can play fetch, frisbee, walk or work on training techniques. Or if your kitty likes playing with toys we can spend some time playing with their favorite toys before we clean their litter box and feed them.
