Pet care experience

I tell my dog have a good day

Hello! I'm Monica. Dogs have been a part of my family my whole life, so I understand that your dog is a part of your family! Your dog is the family member that sometimes stays behind to watch over your home while you are away and I want to be the person you rely on to watch over your family member left behind. I've grown up with rescue dogs and I personally have a retriever mix names Silvio and a German shirt haired pointer named Luna. I am comfortable with all dog types.

Safety, trust & environment

I talk to my dogs everyday. I let them know we love them and I have trained them to follow basic commands. When meeting a new animal I always offer my hand for them to get used to my scent before approaching.

Dog Walking • Jul 29, 2021

Monica came to the rescue after I had spine surgery and wasn’t able to walk Zeke for months. She was dependable, flexible as much as her busy schedule allows and, most importantly, took the best care of Zeke. Monica listened to direction and asked good questions in order to maintain his quality of care. She has an innate positive shine and I always looked forward to seeing and talking with her. I highly recommend Monica!

Monica has done a great job taking care of my kitty for the past month. She was fantastic at communicating and always asked questions if she didn’t know. So glad to have a trustworthy pet sitter when I can’t be there.

House Sitting • Dec 11, 2019

Monica did a great job communicating. She let me know when she arrived and when she was leaving. I loved that she sent us photos! House looked untouched (i.e., clean)!

Monica was EXCELLENT. She watched our home and dog while we were away for a week. The house was in great shape and the dog was happy and healthy. She provided regular communication and photos. I'd very much recommend her.

We had Monica let our dog out a couple times while we were gone for an overnight. She was great! We didn't have a chance to meet before hand as it was a last minute request but I was able to leave a key and instructions. She was great with our dog, filled his food and water, let him out, took him for a little walk, and even sent us a photo/updates. Would definitely recommend her if you need someone to care for your dog!

Monica was an excellent dog sitter for our puppy, Rocky. Monica stayed at our home and cared for Rocky numerous times for extended vacations. She is very loving and caring with animals. We never worried about our dog or our home while we were gone. She was in contact with us daily and was always quick to respond to texts and calls. She clean and respectful of our home. We came home to a spotless house and a happy dog! We highly recommend Monica!

Let me know if there is something specific your animal likes. Whether it’s a belly rub or playing fetch. Let me know your animals typical routine so I can try and match it.
