My dog Grizzly is new to our house hold and I needed a break from his puppyness. April made me feel comfortable about leaving my dog there with her. It helps that she also watches my sister dog as well! Grizzly was comfortable from the get go from the pictured April sent me. I highly recommend her!

April did a wonderful job watching our 2 cats. Our home was left exactly as we left it and my cats were both very happy. She also sent several photos after each daily check-in, which was a wonderful addition to the visits.

April was amazing babysitting our Corgi Miso. She updated pictures throughout the time gone and kept up with his energy. I was VERY impressed. We ran a little late and so of course provided a much deserved tip and was very understanding! She delivered everything we wanted in a dog sitter.
