Pet care experience

Life with Joy.

I have always been the go-to person to dog-sit for friends and family. I have also trained basic obedience and psychiatric service dogs. I do enforce basic house rules. This helps me keep a safe environment for everyone. House manners include: door manners, food manners, place, and jumping on people. I am back to working on site, so I would be out of the house for a working day. However, I do have a trusted friend that lets the pups out halfway through the day, so pups never go longer than 4-5 hours without a potty break. When I’m gone, pups are separated and given water and their own space to rest. Otherwise, we do outside time in the morning, and when weather and light permits, walks at night. Your pup will have plenty of playtime and socializing. I have a fenced front and backyard that can be blocked off from each other if needed. I also have cameras in both the front and back yard to help keep everyone safe. My personal pup is very social and loving pit bull named Joy. We also have a cat named Rosa. And a toddler boy in the home.

Monika and her dogs was great with our unique and energetic pup! Daily updates, pics, and videos really helped ease some anxiety with leaving him with a new person. I will not hesitate to book with her again!

Safety, trust & environment

My front and back yard are fenced and separate. I always monitor play time with the pups and watch for potential warning signs. Inside time is always structured and relaxed so they get plenty of outside time to run their energy out.

Pets

A typical day

I love to keep the pups active while they are with me. Pups will get plenty of outside, weather permitting. There are toys, beds, a swimming pool, a water bowl, and a large running area to help keep them entertained. We will also go on walks around the neighborhood and to nearby parks.
