STAY AWAY! MONIKA IS TOTALLY IRRESPONSIBLE AND NO ONE THAT CARES FOR THEIR DOG’S SAFETY SHOULD BOOK WITH HER. We booked overnight boarding at Monika’s house while we were away for a week long trip. We did a meet and greet beforehand, where Monika assured us that our pup would be well taken care off and that she would be the only dog staying with her that week. Two days into our trip we received a call from one of Monika’s neighbors who had FOUND OUR DOG ROAMING FREE IN THEIR FRONT YARD. We immediately called Monika to try to find out what had happened. When Monika finally answered her phone after several attempts, we asked her what happened and Monika sounded disoriented and was unable to give us a good answer as to why our dog was found in someone else's front yard. We were shocked when Monika said that our dog “never goes far,” seeming to suggest that she thought it was no big deal that our dog was roaming around the street off leash. When we pushed for an explanation, Monika was very combative, told us that she did not like our energy, and hung up the phone. We genuinely feared for our dog’s safety and had to have a relative go and immediately pull our dog out from Monika’s house and take her to a boarding facility, at significant inconvenience, stress, and cost to us. When we called Monika to tell her that someone was coming to pick our dog up, she said that our dog was fine and was “playing with the other dogs.” Monika had assured us during our meet and greet that there would be no other dogs present, so there should not have been any other dogs there. However, this was a smaller issue than her losing our dog. We consider ourselves lucky that Monika’s neighbor found our dog and did the responsible thing and contacted us immediately. Otherwise, who knows what might have happened to our dog.

I want to start of saying. if not for Monika, Riley's last few months with us would have not been the same. Monika became his second mother and staying with her was a blessing for him. It was also a life saver for me, as I work during the day and Riley really needed a second place to call home. Monika was professional, flexible, accommodating; everything a dog owner could ask for. Riley spent a good 3 months with her on my work days as well as over a few long weekends. She allowed me to drop him off if she happened to be out and was always a great communicator. I know Riley was grateful and I'm sure he is looking down on her with a paw up, a wagging tale and a huge smile of thanks and gratitude. Thanks you Monika! Don't hesitate to let Monika take care of your pup if you are looking for a great place. I could not recommend more highly.
