Pet care experience

I rarely meet a dog I dont like

I have had dogs in my life since i was 11 years old (27 years). Last october i had to say goodbye to my companion of 11 years, Wanda. I am not ready for another dog of my own and want to be around your dogs as much as possible. I believe in reciprocal relational dynamics between humans and dogs are the best approach to training and trust, not dominance and control. I would like to care for your dog by building a relationship with them based on their personality and needs. Would love to meet you and your dog!

Safety, trust & environment

I live in a household with 3 other dogs who are my roommates', so I cannot board at my home, but am more than happy and available for caring for them at yours. I am good with all size and age of dogs.

Thank you so much for taking care of my pups and being responsive to my last minute communication. It was so nice to know my pups were taken care of

3rd time Monty has watched the pups and I couldn’t be happier. I came home to happy dogs and she kept me updated.

Monty provided wonderful care for Jello while I was out of the country. They were super responsive when I checked in and sent photos most days, which I really appreciated. They were also great about adapting to my 15 month old’s puppy energy and zoomies, which is no easy feat. Would absolutely book with Monty again.

Monty was great with communicating with us throughout our trip. Everything went smoothly and our pups were very happy.

Monty was awesome! She was patient with my older dog who takes a minute to warm up to new people, and kept me updated. The house was cleaner than I left it, which was such a pleasant surprise after a long day of travel. Will definitely have her watch the dogs again when needed.

I am so glad I found Monty to watch my dog Honeybun! They were a perfect sitter for him, he seems happy and very well cared for after my little trip and that means the world to me. Highly recommend Monty 😊
