Pet care experience

Lawyer by day, pet-sitter when you’re away!

I have 5+ years of experience caring for a range of animals including dogs, cats, horses, goats, tortoises, and the occasional donkey pair! From shy souls to sassy sidekicks, I'm happy to cater to all personalities! 🐈🐶 As a keen equestrian, I’m not one to shy away from walks in muddy fields or tending to farm animals! 😉🐎 Pet-sitting is a win-win for me as it allows me to take a break from the legal life and do what I love most! 🚨IMPORTANT🚨: Please note that I am unable to take weekly recurring bookings for drop-ins/walks due to limited capacity.

April looked after my Mum’s dog who has bad separation anxiety, which prevents my Mum getting out much. It was great to have peace of mind so my Mum could enjoy the concert, knowing Lacey would be well looked after in her own home. It was also my first time using Rover and April was also really helpful in helping me navigate the app to book the right service. Thank you so much April!

April was amazing with Jax, she really took the time to understand his needs and went above and beyond to make sure he was well looked after & happy. We received daily updates and photos. We felt really comfortable leaving him in her care. Looking forward to next time!

April is always so attentive and we know that Milo is in good hands! This is the second time that April has looked after Milo and we couldn’t be happier with the updates and communication we receive.

This was our first time using a Dogsitter so we were a bit apprehensive as our boy can be a bit anxious and suffers with separation anxiety, but April was brilliant. She kept us up to date with how he was doing and he took to her so quickly - she really looked after him. She was also the perfect house guest and we would definitely be happy to use her again 😁

Milo was well looked after by April who was great at communicating with updates throughout the day. Willing to go the extra mile and accommodated all our requests. We’d have her petsit again any time!

Please let me know if your pet is a little shy or has any behavioural issues that I need to be aware of. I’m happy to accommodate any quirks, but cannot accept aggressive or territorial dogs.
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.
