Compassionate Dog Admirer

Pet care experience

Growing up my family dog was my best friend and I have been a dog lover ever since. I've enjoyed the company of my family's, friends', coworker's, and roomates' dogs. From small to large and young to old, I have always been happy to help take care of them when I can. I currently do not have a dog of my own because my schedule gets very busy in the summers. I like to exercise and would love to be able to walk and play with a dog whenever possible.

April was awesome! Very responsive and gave our dog lots of love. Really put our minds at ease while we were away. Thanks, April!

With almost 20 years of dog care experience, April is well suited to meet the needs of any dog. She watched our former high-energy corgi, Lilly, multiple times during day trips and overnight outings. We were always confident that Lilly would be well exercised and loved any time April was caring for her.

April is the best! She always would step in and watch my dog Maui. Maui is pretty shy but she absolutely loved April! She treats other dogs like they’re her own. She always makes me feel confident and comfortable that my pup will be in the best hands. I highly recommend April!

April is a caring and compassionate pet lover. Not only this but she is incredibly diligent, focused, and knowledgeable when it comes to working with individual dogs and their behavior. I trust April to care for my pets as if they were her own.
