Pet care experience

Treating your pet like family!

I, and my family, are animal lovers, especially dogs. We recently had to send our dog of 9 years over the rainbow bridge and need to cure the no puppy blues. I have experience with all breeds and sizes from Yorkies and Boston Terriers to Boxers and larger (those adorable jowels get me every time!) With flexible availability, great location for potential overnights, and love for all things furry, I hope to make your pet at home when you're not able to be there! From a basset who needs a slow walk and belly rubs to a border collie who needs a fierce game if fetch, to an aging family member than needs an extra bathroom break during the day, I hope to be the peace of mind you need.

April and Cory are simply the best! We continue to request their care each time we need assistance. Gus is always so happy when he comes home and loves to play with their pup as well! ☺️ We are so grateful to live near such awesome care!

Doggy Day Care • Jun 16, 2023

First time Rover user so first time using April. Our boy Leo just lost his brother this week and we desperately needed a friend and safe place for Leo to get adjusted to other dogs . We are so happy with this first experience and already plan to use April and her family again.

This was our first time using Rover and we had such a positive experience with April and her family! She sent us an update every day and Maverick looked so happy playing with the kids and their dog Ruby. Will definitely be using her in the future. Thank you April!

Our dog, Gus, had such a wonderful time staying with April and Cory. It was so nice knowing he was in the best of care while we were away. They were fantastic communicators always sending us pictures of our pup letting us know what he was up to. This is our second time using them for overnight care, and we’ll definitely continue to come back! ☺️

April was great to work with! She took the time to make sure Watson would be a good fit in her family before agreeing to watch him. She was easy to work with for drop off and pick up times, and we got lots of pictures of all the fun Watson was having!
