Safety, trust & environment

I understand the need for a trustworthy, accountable dog sitter for your out-of-town needs. My family is a wrestling traveling family so finding someone special to watch our dogs led me to want to offer the same for others. I can watch your pets at the comfort of their home or I can just do quick walks/drop-ins while you are working.

Information April S. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know in-advance of any special needs your pet requires to ensure I am allowing enough time on visits to meet those needs of your pet.

A typical day

I love taking long walks with dogs. Not only does it help exert their physical needs but all the sniffing and exploring will also calm their brains and help relax them. I also love playing fetch with balls and frisbees and rope pull challenges for those pups that love ropes.

Don’t know how we got so lucky, but April is THE best dog sitter we’ve ever had. Our dogs love her, she sends very detailed updates and the funniest and cutest photos of our pups to let us know they’re okay♥️ thank you April for going above and beyond!

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.
