Pet care experience

Reliable Pet Care with Endless Love

With over 25 years of hands-on experience caring for pets, I understand that every animal deserves patience, compassion, attention, and love. I have cared for pets of all ages, breeds, temperaments, and sizes — from energetic puppies and playful kittens to senior pets needing extra gentle care and support. My experience includes administering medications, feeding routines, senior pet assistance, walks, play dates, overnight care, cuddle time, and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. I’m experienced with big and small breeds alike and truly enjoy building trust and bonds with every furry friend I meet. Whether your pet loves long walks, belly rubs, playtime, quiet companionship, or extra patience and care in their golden years, I always tailor my care to their individual personality and needs. I treat every pet like family because I know how important peace of mind is when leaving your beloved companion in someone else’s care. My goal is to make your pet feel loved, secure, and stress-free while giving you confidence that they are in caring and reliable hands. Tail wags, happy walks, cuddles, and loving care guaranteed! 🐾

I am very happy with the day visits Monika's did for my two cats, one of which is elderly and very needy. She clearly loves my cats and she was equally as respectful of my home. She was punctual, communicative and very professional. I would trust her to take care of my cats abd home again no hesitation!

I cannot recommend Monika highly enough for Rover. She has cared for my two dogs — a Pitbull and a Pug/Chihuahua mix — as well as my two cats, and she truly treats them like they are her own family. Whether we need someone for a quick walk, a drop-in visit, or weekend pet sitting, she is always dependable and goes above and beyond. Knowing my pets are with her gives me complete peace of mind. She is incredibly kind, gentle, patient, and naturally amazing with animals. My pets absolutely adore her. She is also great with training and understands how to work with different personalities and energy levels in a calm and loving way. Beyond how wonderful she is with pets, she is also extremely reliable, trustworthy, clean, and organized. She always shows up on time, communicates well, and honestly leaves everything she touches better than how she found it. I would trust her completely with any animal, and I know any pet owner who works with her will feel the same way. She would be an incredible addition to the Rover community.

Schedule

Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine because providing dependable, loving care for animals is something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize in my life. I carefully balance my personal schedule to ensure each pet receives dedicated attention, consistency, patience, and quality care throughout the day. I maintain a structured routine that allows me to stay organized between caring for pets and communicating with pet parents, including scheduled updates, photos, feeding routines, walks, medication administration, playtime, and companionship. I believe it’s important to create a healthy balance that allows me to fully focus on each pet’s individual needs while also keeping owners informed, reassured, and confident that their furry family members are in caring and reliable hands. By maintaining clear communication, time management, and personalized care routines, I’m able to provide a calm, trustworthy, and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners.

Safety, trust & environment

I provide pet care in both my home and my client’s home, and in either setting my focus is the same — making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for. When pets stay with me, they’re in a calm, secure, and welcoming space where they can settle in, stick to their routine, and get plenty of attention and affection. When I go to a client’s home, I respect their space and routines while making sure their pet is well cared for, relaxed, and comfortable in their familiar environment. I’m reliable, consistent, and attentive, and I always keep pet parents updated so they feel at ease while they’re away. At the end of the day, it’s about trust, consistency, and making sure every pet feels at home no matter where they are.
