Silicon Valley Pet Sitting

My husband and I moved up to the Bay Area a little over a year ago and we were in need of an overnight dog sitter when we traveled. We have a 10 year old Sheltie and a 5 year old lab/​pit rescue who needed extra attention. I was extra nervous having a stranger in our home and watching our dogs because as our pups normally get along, but unfortunately they’ve had one big fight once before while we traveled. With this occurring, they need to be watched closely or separated at all times. So, I needed to find someone I really trusted to take the extra time to do this for our precious doggie children. Upon meeting Mona, she was so open to adjusting anything in her routine to make us and the pups feel comfortable. She heard my concerns and always alerts us if anything seems funny between them. It’s awesome getting daily pics (twice a day!) as that puts my nervous mind at ease that they are all doing great while we’re away. Mona watches our pups at least once a month on overnight visits and we feel she genuinely cares for our dogs like her own while she stays at our home. We have tried other dog sitters when she wasn’t available, and it’s never the same. We always choose Mona before anyone else and sometimes we don’t go out of town if she isn’t available just bc we don’t trust anyone else. Other things we love about Mona, she always leaves our home cleaner than we left it (bonus) and she will always try and make a quick unplanned doggy visit work if we call last minute for a dog feed and walk.
Although I’d like to keep Mona available to ourselves and not share her, I would highly recommend her to care for your animal family.

Mona is a fantastic pet sitter! We’ve used her both for dog walking as well as for overnights with our dog, Tux.
Tux is a handful. He’s a high energy dog who can be very shy and nervous with strangers. But he LOVES Mona. And so do we! When we’re away, she’ll send updates and photos of him just to let us know how he’s doing. She also takes great care of our home.
We can’t recommend her highly enough.
