Information Monique D. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if they have any separation anxiety. Also if they are crated or they walk around. I have no special breed preferences just not any that are aggressive.

A typical day

Here's where we'll take our walks I live in a wonderful neighborhood so we normally walk in circle. There are plenty of dogs in my neighborhood so they can bark at others too!! Your dog's sleeping arrangement You are welcome to bring a bed. I have two beds for dogs but I do not let me dog sleep in my bed. If your dog prefers the safety of a crate, I also have one. Time I'll spend with your dog I work from home so they get a lot of attention and love sleeping in my office. We take walks randomly during the day.

Pet care experience

I have always watched dogs for my familly and friends even before I had a dog!! I work from home so your dog will be out most of the day. I live in nice neighborhood where we can get out and walk. I have experience with older dogs that have special needs and need to take medications. I can crate your dog if that is what they prefer or they can be out and about in my home. Why I love dog sitting I have always grew up with dogs. My aunt got her dog in 2000 and I watched her dog all the time. I finally got my own in 2006 and have been in love since. I love having someone to talk to and cuddle with!! I always watched my aunt dog even when she was older and blind. It was nice to have the two around. About my yard I have a nice size back yard that we can play in. Also my backyard is totally fenced in. My experience administering medication I am very comfortable with oral medicine. My aunt's dog had high blood pressure so I'm used to making sure the pill is chewing. I can also do eye drops as well.

Monique took such great care of our girl! Our original sitter backed out last minute so we had to find someone in a panic but Monique took her in right away and saved us. Great communication, sent lots of pictures and made the whole experience very easy. Doodie had a great weekend playing with toys, sunbathing in the backyard and cuddling ever chance she got.

Monique was absolutely amazing with my dog Kingston. She sent me photos and let me know how he was doing throughout the day. Kingston was very comfortable with Monique, and was well taken care of. Monique took him on walks and he had free reign in her backyard. Kingston also got along vey well with her dog. I really appreciate the care and attention she gave my Kingston while he was there, and I was not worried at all. I highly recommend Monique, and I will most definitely use her services again.
