Pet care experience

I have taken care of dogs since I was a child. We had 3 dogs, unfortunately they all passed due to old age recently. We would love having your dog as part of our family while the visit. I treat them like my own kid, lots of play, cuddle, balls and going on nice walks. Dogs have been a big part of how I describe who I am, I also rescue dogs and help them find loving forever homes. We have a huge fenced yard and leave close to a park, we love to go on walks and stay active.

Ashley had a wonderful time with Monika and her family. She was well taken cared. She was very welcomed. Monika gave us the updates/pics/vids we needed. We’ll definitely have Monika and family again. Thank you so much Monika.

Monica is a dog lover and a baby lover and she's super gentle and playful with both. Monica has a gift for care-giving, whether humans or animals. She also has a strong sense of responsibility and nothing bad would ever happen under her watch. She's super careful and can be trusted. Monica is also just a fantastic person all-around. She's smart and fun and gentle and has that kind of energy that people want to be around. So do dogs!
