Highlights
Pet care experience
Care for Every Tail & Whisker
I have two dogs of my own, a Newfoundland and a Border Collie/Aussie mix, so I’m very comfortable managing both giant breeds and high energy working dogs. Living with two very different personalities has given me hands on experience with grooming needs, exercise routines, training consistency, and understanding breed specific behaviors.
Cat care experience
April also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.

Safety, trust & environment
I work remotely from home and have flexible hours, which allows me to accommodate drop in visits, walks, and overnight stays throughout the week. My schedule flexibility also means I can provide more consistent supervision and attention when needed.
Ratings and reviews
Responsible, Adjusted to our constantly moving plans
April was so wonderful to care for our pup Norman while I was out of town and my husband had extended work days. Starting at our meet and greet, she was so kind, professional, and easy to talk to. She helped me feel comfortable with the whole process since it was my first time using anyone through Rover. This week April stopped by three times to help with Norman during the day. Each time, she provided the sweetest pictures and updates. It was such a comfort, knowing our pup was fine. Thank you so much, April!
April is wonderful! I can't recommend her enough. She took excellent care of our dog and cat while we were away. She was punctual, professional, had great communication and sent multiple photos/updates each day. She also left our house in tip top shape, even bringing in our trash cans and packages for us while we were away. She is excellent and she'll be our go to for services in the future.
April is fantastic! She took such amazing care of our two dogs and our home while we were away. It was the longest time we've been away without our dogs and she completely put us at ease. Both of our dogs have unique personalities and quirks, and April was so patient and caring. April communicated as she said she would throughout the trip and honestly went above and beyond with our home. Thank you, April! We are so happy we found you!
April did a wonderful job taking care of our pets! Our dog needs lots of play time, and she provided that! We could tell that both our dog and cat were well looked after, as well as our home! We would definitely hire April again!
April did a great job caring for our 2 cats. Communication was easy, she consistently sent us updates and pictures, and the cats received full care. What I especially appreciated is that she did not just come in, but also spent the full half hour playing with them and giving them some love. Would recommend!

Schedule
I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. From gentle giants to fast moving herders, I adapt my approach to what each dog needs to feel safe and happy. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. With two dogs at home, my days are structured around consistent feeding schedules, walks, exercise, training, and downtime. Because of this, adding additional pets into my schedule feels seamless rather than disruptive.
