Pet care experience

Easy going pet lover & house sitter

I've been fortunate to spend the majority of my life with animals. I’ve personally owned all kinds of animals - fish, hamsters, cats, and dogs (Ranging from a Chow Chow to a Chihuahua.) I am extremely diligent about the care I provide for pets of friends and family. I believe that people are responsible for providing pets with proper care.

Safety, trust & environment

Although I am unable to take your pet home with me because my cat does not get along with other animals, I would love to pay you a visit! I promise to take the utmost care and respect towards your home and pet. I enter and exit your home according to strict security procedures, treating it as if it were my own. You can trust me with your personal belongings because I have the utmost integrity. Gaining your trust is one of my top priorities.

April was amazing! She kept me updated the whole time she was staying with our dog and sent plenty of pictures and videos. I felt at ease knowing she was there with him! 😊

April was the best!! She was so kind to us and thorough every day sending us an update with pictures of our buddy while we were gone. She treated our home so respectfully and we’ve already asked her to come back 😂 Highly recommend, Frankie loved her!!

This is my 2nd time using April and she was just as great as the first time! Consistent updates and Kuma was exhausted the next day so I know he was taken well care of. I would 100% recommend.

April is AMAZING! This was my first time using Rover and I was so nervous, especially because my little schnauzer can be… a lot 😂 But April went above and beyond! She sent constant updates and the cutest pictures, took him on walks, and gave him so much love. I could tell he was truly cared for the entire time. I couldn’t have been more pleased with the whole experience. I will definitely be booking with her again. If you’re looking for someone who is kind, patient, and truly attentive — book April!! She’s the best. 💛🐾

April was incredible! We were going on a trip and due to flight issues decided last minute not to bring our pup. She was available and even made time to do a meet & greet. Her communication was a 10/10 and she sent daily updates with pictures. Our house was perfect when we got back and we could tell that our dog had a great time with her. I would highly recommend!!

Your pet(s)'s social behavior around strangers and other animals. When out for a walk and there's a chance of running into other people's pets, what is their typical response? Are there any particular demands or specifications? I am comfortable giving any necessary medications or treatments because I have experience working with animals of all ages.
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.
