Pet care experience

We Speak, Snuggle and Play Dog!

We have had dogs all our lives for 50+ years now. David grew up on a ranch, participated in 4-H caring for all kinds of animals and grew up with Golden Retrievers and horses (largest kind of dogs). Monisa grew up with, and dog sat Huskies. We have always been the dog sitter go to for family and friends and have cared for many furry friends over the past 40 years. We love being with dogs, treat them like family, give them lots of play time, affection, attention and care. We are empty nesters and Monisa is home nearly all day on weekdays, while David works full time at LLNL and is home nights and weekends. David is a dog whisperer and Monisa indulges by giving light touch doggie joint, back and head massages. We are currently in between dogs (Pomeranian) so your pup will receive extra attention and individualized companionship.

Monisa and David were top-notch dogsitters for our 10 yr old, 20 lb., Yorkie mix, Cody. Monisa kept us informed throughout our absence, and we never worried about Cody. He loved their doggy door that led to their large, grassy and shaded backyard. We hope to book with Monisa and David in the future.

Doggy Day Care • Jul 15, 2026

Shaka seemed to have a great day at Monisa and David’s house. She even got a nice brushing from Monisa! We feel so lucky to have gotten a referral to Monisa and David from one of their neighbors. We plan to try to book both day care and overnights with Monisa whenever they are available and we have the need. I’m learning they are VERY popular with other pup parents, so booking early is important. Thanks for a perfect first stay for Shaka!!

Monisa and Dave took such great care of our 1 year old labrador while we were gone for a week. They offered great communication with photos and videos. The peace of mine they provided for us and the care they provided for our pup was priceless. Thank you both so much!

Monisa and David took care of Neela really well. My plan was to leave her for two nights but our plan changed and I had to pick up Neela the next day. She was cheerful and running around. She seemed to have had great time. Thank you Monisa and David🙏
