Doggy Day Care • Nov 03, 2025

Monika has a really chill vibe, making her an ideal pet sitting candidate for our somewhat anxious dog (and maybe somewhat more anxious dog parent!). Monika responded quickly to the booking request. Drop-off was convenient: Monika came to the parking lot to grab Scarlet and Scarlet's toys, etc. Scarlet was noticeably tired when she came home from staying with Monika. Appreciated the daycare report card. Recommend!

Safety, trust & environment

My philosophy is that a tired dog is a good dog! I prefer taking dogs on a long walk in the morning before I start work so that they go straight to sleep for most of the day. A play break or quick walk around lunch time and another evening walk/adventure with as many potty breaks and cuddles during the day as needed to keep your beloved pet happy!

A typical day

I live close to many neighborhoods, pop up dog runs, which makes it easy to take dogs on long adventures and keep things interesting by never taking the same route twice! My apartment is also perfectly located to allow for great people so they’ll never be bored!
