April has taken care of angel a few times now and she is great. Angel loves being at April’s. She comes home happy. We recommend April to others as well as rover.com.

April did a great job of looking after Coco. Poor Coco had diarrhea for a couple of days and April had to deal with all of that and also clean up poor Coco. She kept in touch on a regular basis and I was very happy to see all the photos. I highly recommend April as a dog sitter

April and her family were great. They sent lots of pictures while we were away and my dog seemed to have a great stay. I’ll definitely try to book again with April.

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.
