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!

Monika is a big dog person! She is so good with dogs and knows exactly what she’s doing. Your dogs will be in good hands with Monica. She is loving, caring, and goes above and beyond for animals. She is also very punctual and responsible. Monika is very friendly and easy to communicate with as well.
