Energetic farm girl animal lover!
Pet care experience
I’ve spent most of my life caring for animals. From my pet baby snapping turtle when I was eight, on to lizards, snakes and dogs and then adding cats, chickens, ducks, geese, goats and horses when we moved to an acreage. Horses where my main area of care and expertise for over 10 years and I've had a dog for the majority of my life. I worked at a vet clinic for a while in high school as well and enjoyed getting to care for so many different animals every day. I love animals of every kind and appreciate the joy they add to life.
Reviews
April took such great care of my dogs and my house! She was very professional and a great communicator. Would trust her again with my furbabies!
Dogs were completely content and very well cared for! April handled our very big playful Dane like a pro! Thank you April
April has been an animal lover her entire life. She has rescued and adopted kittens that were dumped near her home, and once drove through an ice storm to southern Minnesota to adopt two puppies from a shelter. She also worked for a veterinarian as a teen because she loved animals so much and wanted to be around them. She has experience caring for dogs, cats, horses, goats, chickens, ducks, geese, parakeets, hamsters, rabbits, and turtles. That perfect combination of extensive knowledge/experience and love for all animals is a rarity from which you will benefit if you choose April to care for your pets.

Safety, trust & environment
I am very open to working with the needs of pets and their owners. Keeping up routines and being in familiar spaces can be helpful for animals, so I like to try to follow routines and care the owner has already established for their pets.
Information April B. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if there are any special needs, medications, attention, etc that your pet needs. I try to accommodate however I can, just want to make sure we're both on the same page from the beginning!
A typical day
We love walks! Hiking is my favorite to do with my dog, so if your pet is comfortable with being on the trail I'm down for that! Lots of petting and playing and love will be involved no matter what! I love to hear what your pets favorite things are and focus on those things!
