I'm Mona, owner of Mount Tabor Pet Care. I finished my degree in Psychology in 2009; however, I decided not to pursue a career in that field. I worked in customer service in various settings for many years before concluding that the only way to be part of a business that fully supported my values was to work for myself. Having also been an animal lover all my life, and after having the experience of working in a vet clinic and realizing it wasn't the right environment for me, I decided to start my pet sitting business.
When I started pet sitting professionally in September of 2013, I was delighted to find that business ownership felt very natural to me, and gave me a sense of pride in myself and my skills in a way that working for other people or companies never did. I was also pleased to find that not only pets, but also clients, were able to establish a sense of trust in me right away. Dogs and cats have always taken to me, and I understand them well. I'm able to quickly identify their particular personality types, preferences, and needs. I believe that my background in psychology and customer service has also helped me to form strong relationships and good communication with clients. I feel gratified when clients tell me how relieved they are to have someone they can trust and rely on to take care of their homes and pets while they're away. These sentiments have continued to deepen over time, as clients new and old continue to contact me for my assistance.
I feel very fortunate to have created a business that allows me to do something I truly enjoy: helping neighbors, building community, and working with people and animals in a way that feels personal and meaningful. I love meeting new clients, and I've had the pleasure to work with wonderful people and animals along the way. I'm grateful for the support and encouragement I've received from clients, friends, and other small business owners alike. After five years of helping people and pets, I believe there's no other job that would be a better fit for me.
