Information April S. would like to know about your pet

If they have any specific needs, their behavior around other animals and people (particularly for when walking them). What their favorite things are so they can be taken care of in the best way.

A typical day

Depending on what your pets personality is, I can do a range of activities. I have a park across the street that I can explore with them, I live near the cascade to Palouse trail and often walk there. I’ll give them lots of pets and cuddles if they enjoy that. Along with playing with them and their favorite toys.

Dependable & Attentive Pet Care

Pet care experience

I recently lost my senior dog at 15 years old. I’m looking to provide that same love, patient, routined care to others pets. I work remotely and have a flexible schedule, allowing me to focus on the care your pet needs. I have experience in specialized diets, medications, and mobility support. I also love to walk and would be happy to take your pet for sniffaris.

I could tell my dog was very happy and I could feel Paloma was in great hands with April right from the start. I’ll definitely be reaching out to her for my future puppy care needs. Thank you!

April is a great choice for a pet sitter! They are very attentive and thoughtful which makes them a great care taker for pets. I trust them with my pets because I know they will receive the best care and lots of love.

April is an exceptional pet caregiver. She is kind, compassionate, and remarkably attuned to animal behavior. You can see her gentleness in the way animals naturally gravitate toward her and settle into a sense of safety and comfort in her presence. She treats every animal with genuine care and respect, as if they were her own. Beyond her warm nature, April is also incredibly smart and resourceful. She handles the inevitable unpredictability of animals with calm confidence and sound judgment. I trust her completely with my pets and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone seeking truly thoughtful, reliable care.

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.
