Loving Care-Because Pets are Family

Hi there, and thank you for considering me to care for your beloved pets! I’m excited to share that I’m fully back to pet sitting and ready to provide top-notch care for your furry (or scaly!) family members. With years of hands-on experience and a deep love for animals, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for them like their own. That’s exactly what I do. #### **What I Offer:** 🐾 **Leash Walks & Let-Outs:** All non-aggressive dogs are welcome! I understand that dogs can be full of energy and excitement, especially when it’s time for a walk. A little jumping or pulling is no problem—but for everyone’s safety, I cannot accommodate dogs that show aggression toward me or others. Let’s chat about your pup’s needs! 🐾 **Cats & Small Animals:** Always welcome! I love caring for feline friends and other small critters. 🐾 **Farm Animals & Reptiles:** Yes! With experience handling everything from horses to chickens to reptiles, I’m happy to help with your unique pets. Pricing varies based on the specific needs of your animals, so book as a pup, and we’ll discuss the details to ensure the best care. #### **Why Choose Me?** I’m not just a pet sitter—I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for dogs, cats, horses, and farm animals. My home is filled with love, including **2 dogs, 6 cats, and 2 horses**, so I completely understand how much your pet means to you. Leaving your pets behind is never easy, but I strive to make the experience stress-free for both you and them. I’ll send updates, photos, and plenty of reassurance so you can relax knowing your pets are in loving, capable hands. I can’t wait to meet your amazing animals and give them the care and attention they deserve. Let’s connect and make sure your pet is in the best hands while you’re away! ❤️

Safety, trust & environment

When I care for your pets, I treat both your furry friends and your space with the utmost respect and care. I know how much trust it takes to invite someone into your home, and I’m committed to making sure you feel completely at ease while you’re away. You’ll also receive updates and photos so you can see for yourself how well your pets are doing. You’re always welcome to call or text me anytime to check in—I’m here to give you peace of mind. Need your plants watered or your mail brought in? I’m more than happy to help with those little tasks, too. My goal is to make sure everything is well cared for so you can enjoy your time away without worry. 🐾❤️

We've had April take care of our kitties on several trips now, and she's always the best! Love that we don't have to worry while we're away.

Always the best. She’s the only way I have peace of mind when we’re away for a few days.

Schedule

Running my own eCommerce business gives me the flexibility to create my own schedule, which means I can dedicate plenty of time to caring for your fur babies! I understand how stressful it can be for pets to adjust when their humans are away. That’s why I’ll do my best to keep them on their usual feeding, walking, and play routines. If your pet needs a little extra attention or love, I’ll be sure to give it to them to help them feel secure and happy until you return. Your pets are in safe and loving hands with me! 🐾❤️

Please let me know if your pet is prone to anxiety or has special needs. If medication is needed we will go over it at our meet and greet. If it is a return visit please make sure I am aware of any new issues. I also like to know your pet's schedule so we don't have any accidents.
