Spreading love for any fur baby❤️

Pet care experience

I have experience with all kinds of animals ranging from mastiffs to itty bitty chihuahuas and kittens. At the age of 13 I was a full time care giver to a paraplegic kitten that was shot in the spine with a BB gun. Family and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe, and play with their pets for days or even months at a time. My love for animals has only grown and I am working towards becoming a veterinarian in the future. I have volunteered at animal shelters since the age of 15 and have happily cared for these furry bundles of joy. I work well with giving animals their medicine if they have any and I work with any diet. IMPORTANT‼️ If possible, I would like to have a meet and greet and make sure everything is in line before I pet sit or walk any of your fur babies. It is important I understand yours and your pets boundaries and your expectations. If possible, I would also like it if any food/toys/leashes come with your pet to keep things as familiar as possible for your fur baby. Please be able to drop off and pick up your fur baby as I do not have a vehicle to come pick up your pet just yet. ‼️I will always send picture and message updates throughout the day usually ever hour or two‼️ Please remember I am a college student and will be busy. A picture of my schedule is located in the photos below. Again, I do not have a vehicle to pick up and drop off your pet.

She treated my pets like a mom and gave excellent care for my dog for months when I had last minute emergencies and had to go out of town. I trust her very much and she gave me hourly updates and sent photos of my dog. She's established a great relationship with them.

She's really good with animals she would gave my dog cats their medicine on time. Took them on walks. Took her my sick cat when she had cancer she bathed My miniature schnauzer mino. I was able to booker last minute to watch my dog mino for the weekend. Overall she engaged very well with my pets.

Abril was a very loving and responsible pet sitter. She showed all 7 of mine love in their own special way. They all love and adore her. She took all of her responsibilities and went above and beyond with them. I would 100% have her over again.

I’ve known Abril for a couple of years now and every time I go out of town or to different states because of business I always call her to pet sit for me, she even takes care of my birds really well even tho they don’t like any one but me and her ig, and for her size i was surprised she could even walk my blue nose bully mix but no she’s surprisingly well with big and little dogs, she’s even picked up stray cats from my neighborhood just to take care of them and take them to the proper place to find help, I would highly recommended her with any animal not just dogs and cats

Information Abril G. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if your dog has any special needs treatments, medications, or behaviors I can account for and help with. I prefer to work with special needs cats and small dogs as I am a short person. If there are any toys or a certain diet your fur baby eats and plays with, please provide those items. All animals must be good with cats!

A typical day

I love to have a dog come home after a walk stimulated and happy. I have a tennis court near my home and a large field for them to play in. If your cat or doc play with any toys, I will definitely keep them entertained.

Availability

I am college student working to become a veterinarian and hope to earn as much money as possible caring for animals. My class schedule is provided in the photos below from Monday - Thursday. I can have a pet drop off anytime before 9 am Monday-Thursday and later any other day. Please be okay with having your animal in my apartment for a few hours in the morning while I am in classes. Before I leave for classes I will give your pet a walk, feed them and more and will do the same once I get back.
