Safety, trust & environment

I care for your pets like I do my own. I always set up a meet and greet first. This way I go over exactly how you would like me to take care of your pet, your instructions and rules, and make sure it’s done to your liking. I always try to go above and beyond, as I would for my own fur babies.

Information April B. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preference. I have worked with all sizes, and breeds of dogs. I cannot accept any dog that has aggression towards children.

A typical day

I have a huge fenced in yard and tons of dogs toys. If it’s too hot, we have air conditioned room for a cool off. If your pup likes water play, have a baby pool as well.

Dog rescue mom, very experienced!

Pet care experience

I have been taking care of animals for 36 years. I use to run a non profit 501c3 dog rescue for 15 years when I use to live in NC I can handle medical animals, use to giving medications and animals with disabilities. My passion is animals, changing laws and saving lives. Cats and dogs accepted. Have even had pigs, chickens, birds and reptiles. Many references available. I work from home so I am available almost all the time. I do have a 12 year old , very responsible daughter who does accompany me sometimes. When permitted , of course . I have a SUV if your animal is needing transport to a vet, etc. I personally have five dogs and two cats. If you’re looking for someone trust worthy that will take care of your animals like they are spoiled children, you have found the right person. I message when I am heading towards your house, message when I leave and take pictures. If you like what you’re hearing, feel free to reach out to me! Look forward to speaking with you!

April took good care of Mocha. And I love that she took her for a walk as that is one of her favorite things to do.

I am very happy to have found April! She watched my 12-year-old dog over the weekend and I felt very comfortable with her. I already have her booked for two more visits.

April is just wonderful! She is the perfect pet sitter, she is honest and open to special requests. My cat is a scardey cat and hides under the bed making it difficult to check on her and give daily pictures but she really came through.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
