Dog Walker/Lover with Flex Schedule

As someone whose Mother regulated her pets to goldfish as a child, I grew up always wanting a dog. In fact, when I moved in with relatives, during college, finally had one! Rosie, an adorable and sassy Maltese, who was a treasured part of our family. When I moved to the District, I did not have the time or space to properly love and care for a pet of my own so I would walk, play, and on occasion sit for friends and neighbors dogs and cats. My schedule currently is flexible, which would allow me to work some of your more difficult to fill timeslots. Looking forward to spending time with your puppy! Shoot me a message if you have any questions! Warmly, April

April was super easy to coordinate with, made sure Nero was comfortable and had everything he needed (including company) on a hot 4th of July! She was really responsive and sent lots of updates. I would definitely recommend her!

April was wonderful. She took our pup for 2 weeks and sent pictures every day. Would book again!

April took excellent care of our Lexie and communicated frequently with us, letting us know how Lexie was settling in, sending photos and videos, and even inviting us to check in by phone a couple of times. She has a calm and positive presence that made us all feel comfortable. Lexie clearly enjoyed hanging out with April and we appreciated so much that she was with such a caring and responsible individual.
