Sittin' Pretty Pet Care

Pet care experience

Hi there! My name is April and and my fiance's name is Darren who helps me with pet sitting, this is a joint account for us. Animals have been my passion ever since I was a child. In my life I have had several pets; hamsters, gerbils, fish, snakes, lizards, birds, cats, frogs and dogs. I graduated from Wilson College in 2014 with my B.S. in Veterinary Medical Technology and am currently working full-time as a professional dog groomer since 2013. I have previously worked at a boarding kennel for 2 and a half years where I helped care for all of the dogs and cats staying there. Because of my work and college experiences, I am very comfortable working with and caring for all varieties and sizes of animals. I have experience with fearful dogs, aggressive dogs, seniors, puppies and all in between. It is my mission to make every dog feel as comfortable as possible and gain their trust. Our pets are our family, our fur children, and they deserve to be treated that way no matter what. While you are away, both you and your pet should have peace of mind knowing that they are safe, being well cared for and loved as if they were my own. That is my promise to you while your fur baby is in my care. I look forward to hearing from you and meeting your pets! :)

I can trust April to care for our pup when we are gone. Seamus is very happy when we return to him.

April was fantastic with our two dogs, Bella and Bailey! She was extremely flexible and accommodating for our last minute stay. She sent us photos and updates, making us feel very comfortable that the dogs were doing well in her care. We'd definitely use her again! Thanks, April!

April is absolutely amazing! You can really tell how much she loves animals and how much they love her! There is no one else I could possibly trust more with my dog! She's well experienced and even gives me advise on him from time to time! Best sitter ever!
