13. Monica D.
“This was our first time using Rover and Monica made the process so easy. She sent us notes and lots of pictures at every visit. She took cues from our dog on how far she could walk at each visit depending on the weather and then spent time cuddling our Boston Terrier too (which is just as important for our dog as exercise). We were out of town and never had to worry if things were going well! Our family highly recommends Monica for your pet walking/sitting needs!!”

About: I have worked as an assistant manager at a dog daycare and boarding facility for 1 year. I have always had dogs growing up. I am currently in training to be a dog trainer. I am available everyday anytime I only work 3 hours two days a week at a dog training facility as of now. My hours are very flexible. I believe that dogs are part of the family so they should be treated that way! I have a lot of love for dogs and making sure they are well taken care of and loved. I want to make sure that you are at ease whenever you need to be away from your dog/dogs, knowing that they are getting lots of attention and love!
20. Melodie P.
“Melodie is extremely kind and compassionate towards humans and animals alike. She has graciously watched my animals for me before and has always done a good job of it. She follows instructions and I feel secure leaving her in the care of my precious animal companions. She has clear communication. She has always shown up in time she said she would. I don't trust very many people with my pets but I do trust Melodie was them and so much more. Animals and children feel safe in her presence and I think that says a lot about a person.”
