About Monica

My home is your dog’s home away from home. I offer a comfortable, relaxed environment with plenty of options for resting, snoozing, lounging and simply doing their own thing. My fully fenced yard offers lots of interesting things to sniff and explore at their own pace, whether your dog enjoys a little outdoor adventure or prefers a quiet spot to relax.

I believe that good care means meeting dogs where they are. Some are playful and curious, while others are happiest with a predictable routine, extra reassurance and a cozy place to rest. I respect their individual needs and never expect every dog to fit the same mould.

Most importantly, when your dog stays with me, I care for them like they’re my own. I know how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else’s care, and I want you to feel confident that your little companion is in understanding, experienced and loving hands.

Whether your dog is a lively little character, a sweet senior, or a dog who needs some extra TLC, I want their time with me to feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible.

I have three dogs of my own and generally welcome dogs that are friendly or comfortable around other dogs. If your dog needs its own space, I can accommodate that too.

As a self-employed professional, I have flexible hours and am home frequently throughout the day. Dogs are never left alone for more than 2–3 hours at a time. Depending on your dog’s temperament and comfort level, they may also be able to join me at my dog-friendly office. We can discuss what works best for your dog during our initial meet-and-greet.

I have experience with feeding raw, administering medications orally, syringe feeding, managing incontinence issues, keeping track of feeding schedules, managing complicated feeding schedules, managing dogs as they recover from surgeries. I have essentially been managing high needs dogs for 10 years. 

I understand the special bond we share with our pets and how important it is to find someone you can trust. Your dog will be cared for like one of my own, with patience, affection and attention to their individual needs.

Thank you for considering me to care for your dogs! I look forward to meeting you and them!
