Reliable & loving care

Pet care experience

I have cared for dogs, cats, guinea pigs, hamsters, rats, birds, and fish in my home and others homes for the last 19 years. We have an energetic 8 year old Golden Retriever/Lab mix, 14 year old Boston Terrier who is deaf and blind, a 19 year old cat, 2 guinea pigs and some fish! I used to board dogs in my home through Rover and I loved it but my senior cat and dog no longer liked it. I am currently available for drop in visits and dog walking. My 12 and 14 year old daughters love animals and sometimes come along to give extra love and attention, so dogs must be friendly.

April is a great communicator and provides reliable and loving care. She was very good for drop in visits with our cat.

I have used April for dog sitting during my vacations for years. My dogs are always happy and well taken care of any enjoy seeing April. April administers meds to them and always makes sure they have everything they need.

I always feel 100% comfortable leaving our cat in April's care. He has a heart condition, and I know that she will give him the love, care, and medications that he needs.

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.
