Fur-ever Friends

Pet care experience

Hello! 🐶🐱🫶🏻 Please read all information before booking. Thank you! 𝑹𝒆𝒒𝒖𝒊𝒓𝒆𝒎𝒆𝒏𝒕𝒔 | 𝑩𝒐𝒂𝒓𝒅𝒊𝒏𝒈 | 𝑫𝒂𝒚𝒄𝒂𝒓𝒆 Your pet must be up-to-date on vaccinations. Your dog must be spayed or neutered. Your dog must get along with all dogs. -No aggressive dogs. Your dog must like or tolerate kids. -We can provide quiet areas for older dogs. No destructive dogs. -No diggers. Potty trained only. 𝑫𝒊𝒔𝒄𝒐𝒖𝒏𝒕 Get $20 off your first booking by using my Rover code APRILB98256 My goal is to go above & beyond to make pet parent's lives much easier & pets happier. 𝑬𝒙𝒑𝒆𝒓𝒊𝒆𝒏𝒄𝒆 I've been with Rover for about six years. It's allowed me to do more of what I love. I've pet sat for family & friends throughout the years, taken in flood evacuee pets & fostered/rescued dogs, bunnies, kittens & birds. Prior to their closing, I helped The Doghouse in Lathrop when needed. I took on clients they were unable to accommodate & some transport. 𝑯𝒐𝒎𝒆 𝑺𝒘𝒆𝒆𝒕 𝑯𝒐𝒎𝒆 We are a husband & wife team. My husband works most days, but is a rockstar pet sitter when he's home. We have a clean, safe home to share with our fur friends. We have two living rooms. They are separated by a tall baby gate. The baby gates are to prevent runaways at the front door, to ensure quiet areas & to separate while feeding. Our doggy living room has a comfy couch, kennels/playpen if needed, toys & drinking water. The slider is open 'most of the time' for potty breaks & outside play. We can provide kennels, playpen, beds, cots, blankets, toys, bowls & treats unless your dog wants their special something from home. Please do not send anything sentimental. The only thing we do not provide is food. 𝑨𝒃𝒐𝒖𝒕 𝒎𝒆 Hi, my name is April. I'm a pet owner & animal lover. I'm currently a stay-at-home mom/owner of Fur-ever Friends & my husband works in the masonry/tile field. We are animal people & avid campers. Our Nessa Marie is a 9-year-old terrier vizsla mix. Well loved & socialized. Please message me if you have any questions. I look forward to meeting you!

April is awesome! She is super caring and loving with our baby fur. We are so glad we found someone like her to take care of our dog. She always sends pictures or videos of him and has amazing communication. We highly recommend her 💕

April is awesome. She continuously communicates with me and provides frequent updates of my babies. They are well taken care of when I picked them up

April took good care of our dog and sent us check-in videos. Our dog was very happy. My only complaint is that when we picked her up she was filthy dirty as she had apparently gotten into something in the backyard. I had to take her immediately to the doggie wash station and clean out the inside of my vehicle which got so dirty just from her. A headache I was not planning on.

𝑺𝒂𝒇𝒆𝒕𝒚 | 𝑩𝒐𝒂𝒓𝒅𝒊𝒏𝒈 | 𝑫𝒂𝒚𝒄𝒂𝒓𝒆 I like to plan meet & greets before pet stays & visits. Dogs are introduced one by one on loose leashes. We feed all dogs separately. We have tall baby gates to avoid runaways at the front door, etc. *Dogs that show aggression will be separated or kenneled.

Information April B. would like to know about your pet

Is your dog, dog selective? Does your dog have medical needs/anxiety? Does your dog require a special diet? What are your dog's likes & dislikes? Has your dog been in boarding before? Has your dog been in daycare before? Is your dog a chewer? Do you kennel your dog? Is your dog prone to resource guarding? -Resource guarding occurs when dogs exhibit behaviors like growling, lunging, or biting over food or toys. This behavior is also known as “possessive aggression” and may occur in dogs of any breed.

A typical day

Activities depend on your dog. Some like to play, while others like to cuddle. We enjoy playing ball, car rides, pup cups, water fun, short walks & cuddles. This mama bear likes to give hugs & kisses too. Yes I'm that sitter. haha
