Happy Walker

Pet care experience

Volunteer and pet-lover, I have experience with shelter and rehomed animals that need a second chance and structure. Previously owned 2 rescue boxers and gave them a great quality of life. I understand dogs and especially ones with special needs who require more patience than usual. I give great walks, have experience with crate-training, and enjoy the outdoors, I offer positive reinforcement and love to keep pups engaged (and out of trouble). Your pet will receive lots of head pats and belly rubs. Treats whenever you wish! Animals just need time and mental stimulation to stay happy and healthy! Messes will be cleaned up when/if they happen and I’m comfortable with walking larger breeds, too. Dog parks are also an option if you wish! Thanks for reading!

April is the most caring individual that I know. When it comes to animals her compassion is second to none. She provides companionship when others can not be there for them. She has grown up around dogs and cats which makes for an easy process of getting to know an animal. Her heart and hands are very gentle when it comes to your beloved animals.

April is by far the best dog sitter I have ever had. She and her husband come stay in my home with my dog and cat and treat the house with such respect and treat the animals with even more respect. She gets a 5/5 recommendation from me and will rebook again and again. Thank you April!
