Pet care experience

Caring, Professional & Loving Pet Care Registered & Protected by valid Pet Business Insurance 🐾 *Just a quick note, please: I absolutely love pet sitting in the countryside. As I don’t drive, there just needs to be a public transport option for me to get there and back sustainably🍀. Thank you so much for your understanding . 🐾 Animals have always been closest to my heart, and I’ve often been told that my connection with them is truly genuine and special. I have been dedicated to house and pet sitting for over eight years. I have looked after dogs, cats, small animals, and homes of all kinds, and have also volunteered with animals at various shelters. 🐾 For more than three years, I provided full time care for an elderly special-needs dog and his family’s listed property on the High Street in Corsham, offering dedicated support and comfort through the final stage of his life. For the past three years, I have supported Coppershell Animal Rescue as a dedicated volunteer - lead. 🐾 I’m dedicated to caring for animals in a way that helps them feel safe, understood, and loved (I genuinely love them). So their owners can relax, knowing their beloved pets are happy, content and safe. 🐾 Before dedicating myself fully to premium pet care, I worked professionally as a property manager for 3,5 years, gaining extensive hands-on experience in the management of homes. I approach every home with care, responsibility, and respect. I am happy to provide a formal recommendation letter, along with additional 25+ five-star reviews from happy homeowners. 🐾 Calm, kind, and caring by nature, with a natural ability to lead dogs through respect and trust. I bring an organised, professional, and loving presence into the lives and homes I care for. 🐾 I practice daily mindfulness, which helps me embody grounded and positive energy. Clean, up-to-date police check available. Non-smoking, non-drinking, plant based.

Monika provided great service looking after my two dogs and house sitting with them for two nights. Her communication before and during was perfect with lots of pupdates and photos. The girls were clearly well settled with her. The house was immaculate upon our return. Thank you, Monika.

Monika was the perfect sitter, Missy loved her (as evidenced by the fact that she didn't even notice me walking out of the door) and she is conscientious, tidy and punctual. What's more, she enjoys walking so you need never worry that your dog is not getting enough exercise. We will certainly be using her again.

Monika was very professional, she communicated perfectly both before the sit and during. She was very calm with Fia and she clearly felt comfortable in her presence. Monika left the house spotless, thank you so much.

This was my first booking through Rover, but Monika exceeded any expectations I could have had. I would happily and highly recommend Monika to anyone looking for a house sitter for their pet. From our first meet and greet I felt assured that I have found the 'right' person - and this indeed turned out to be the case. Thank you Monika for taking good care of Silas and I look forward to your next sitting with us.
