Safety, trust & environment
We have a large, fenced-in yard, and are able and willing to bring your dog on walks around our neighborhood. I have two responsible children at home, ages 9 and 12, and they are experienced with dogs and have been involved with care and training. We can accommodate all kinds of needs. As a registered nurse, I am trustworthy and responsible, and am very experienced with following a care plan and providing detailed updates. I’ll be happy to send reports and pictures while you are away from your pet!

Information April N. would like to know about your pet
Let me know and details involved in caring for your dog. Please let me know if your dog is fearful or anxious so I can make sure we are equipped to provide excellent care to your dog.
A typical day
We love working on training exercises with dogs—with positive reinforcement, it is a fun activity and facilitates a positive relationship. We would love to play with your dog and its favorite toy. We like to go for walks, and especially to allow dogs to enjoy “sniffy walks”—great for their brains and lead to happy dogs!

Pet care experience
**Updated 5/25/24: the only pet we have at the time is an English angora rabbit who lives outside or in the garage. We have had dogs in our home until this year, and have experience with all kinds and sizes of dogs. We are very experienced with positive reinforcement and fear-free methods. We have an English Angora rabbit, so are experienced with rabbits and can provide drop-in service for small animals as well as dogs and cats.
Reviews
We always have positive experiences with April and her family. Our dog seems happy and relaxed to stay in their house. They are friendly and attentive. April provided daily updates, pictures and videos of our dog. They also took our dog on walks and play with him. Thank you so much!
We are incredibly grateful to April and her family for taking such wonderful care of our cat, Mufaza, while we were thousands of miles away visiting family. April made our trip anxiety-free by not only looking after Mufaza but also keeping us updated with thorough visit summaries and delightful pictures. It was clear from the updates that Mufaza was not just cared for but also given enough attention and stimulation to make him feel at ease despite our absence. April’s care was so exceptional that we would be delighted to have her watch Mufaza every time we travel without him. Thank you, April, for your exceptional service and for treating Mufaza as part of your family!
Excellent job, daily updates and photos. April and her family are so helpful and they took really great care of our dog. Thank you very much! Highly recommended!
April and her family took awesome care of our dog! I definitely recommend her!
