Reliable with 20+yrs of experience

Hello, my name is April R. I have had more than 20 years of experience with dogs of many breeds. Currently own 3 dogs, one is a 6 year old pit bull, the others are a 3 year old lab and a 6m old corgi. As your sitter you can expect your dog to play, run and be tuckered out by the time you come home. I also offer baths, nail trims and minor grooming. I am studyinging to get my ADT for dog training, I can offer some training in leash walking, manners and a few comands now but hope to expand that in the future. I look forward to meeting you and your 4 or 3 legged companions. Thank you for your consideration in you pet sitting needs.

ALL dogs must be dog and child friendly. Any issues with leash walking, food/toy aggression will need to be disclosed. Large breed dogs that tend to pull should have a gentle lead. Any issues with cats needs to be disclosed so that I may protect my cats while your pet is here.
