Monica came over last minute to watch my children after a sitter that agreed to keep them changed her mind at the last minute. She was prompt, kind, and very good with my children.

I spoke with Monica during the interview and explained the need for a reliable sitter. She emphatically told me she would be available to watch my kids. One morning before I needed her to pick up my children she text me that her Dad was sick in Colombia and she had to return to care for him--but she has logged on to this site since she told me. Again, she was unprofessional for not providing adequate notice. She is also not fluent in English.

My experience with this pet-sitter was unsatisfactory. I received her offer to take car of my dog more than 3 weeks in advance of the desired date, and accepted it. Because of the commitment I'd made to her, I passed up several more qualified candidates. On the night I needed her to pet-sit, one hour before I was due to leave my dog with her, she told me she could only do the job if I paid for her parking. This had never been mentioned before, even though she had 3 weeks to look into the parking situation. At this point I really didn't have a choice, so I agreed, though I didn't like the way she had put me in this position. Then, 15 MINUTES before she was due to arrive, she texted to say her car had broken down, and she couldn't make it. I suppose things like this can happen, but given our exchange just a little bit earlier, I'm not inclined to believe what she said. All in all, I found her behavior less than professional.

I responded to her message after i had posted about a job position. It clearly stated in my job post the duties & times. Cooking was one thing listed. After texting back & for she ask of she will have to drive or cook. I said driving no cooking yes which is just simple yhings like pb&j soup sandwich ect. . She replies back "I AM A BABYSITTER NOT A NANNY. I DON NOT COOK. NANNY DO" . Mind you she would have my kids for hours at a time. & your telling me you cant even make a pb&j! DO NOT LEAVE YOUR KIDS WITH HER, THEY WILL STARVE!

Monica is a great sitter! She communicates well and makes sure to be available when you need her. She was kind to my 1 year old son and he always seemed excited to see her as well. Thank you Monica!

We had a last minute cancellation from another sitter, and Monica saved our day. She was able to take a job on a very short notice. Arrived well before time we stated. Kids already miss her, it was a fun night but with their normal routine done as well. I do recommend this person!
