I dig your diggity dog!

Pet care experience

I’ve been around dogs and cats since I was born. I had a few lovable mutts, cocker spaniels, and border collies. They have always been a part of my family and I love them! As of right now I have two cats and a dog. One 10 year-old tortoiseshell Maine Coon named Libby, a 1.5 year-old Tabby named Django, and a 6 month old Siberian Husky named Khali. I like to hike with my dog, jogging, and leisurely walks. I like playing with pets outdoors or indoors, with toys or whatever the doggie/kitty likes to play with. It’s really important for me to make them happy and entertained. Above all else, I like to keep them safe and loved. I am a reliable and flexible person with lifelong experience with pets :). I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you for choosing your friendly neighborhood dog or cat sitter!

Monika was excellent when caring for my dog. She always goes above and beyond. My dog is a ball of energy and she always takes him jogging. Sometimes when I am at work she will also feed him and make sure he goes potty. She will even clean my cat's litterbox without me asking! I would 100% recommend Monika to anyone looking for a responsible and professional dog/cat sitter or for a nice walk for your dog.

Monika was fantastic with my old, grumpy cat. She was very responsive and when I messaged her she got back to me right away, but more than that she took very good care of my cat. I came back after a week long trip to a happy cat, a clean house (the cat had a few accidents that Monika cleaned up), and she even took out the trash. I will request her every time I need a cat sitter. I highly recommend her!

Information Monika M. would like to know about your pet

I’m happy to take care of any breeds of doggos, as long as she/he is leash trained (if you need us to go for a walk). I would appreciate knowing your house rules — do you allow your pets on the couch or the bed? Is your pet potty/crate trained? Does your furbaby need to take some medicine? Are treats allowed? What is feeding/walking/ bedtime schedule? Any commands you’d like me to practice with your doggy? How else can I help?

A typical day

I’m a very active person. I enjoy hiking, running, climbing, kayaking, biking, yoga, aerobics, snowboarding. These are examples of activities that I’m doing on a regular basis (depending of the season). I love to include my pets in my activities (Django - my cat - loves practicing yoga with me:) I live right next to Iron Horse Trail and I spend hours walking there with doggies. If you live in the hills or close to a dog park - that’s perfect too. If your pet likes to hang out at home and just need a buddy to spend time with - that’s awesome too and you can count on me!
