Easy going pet lover & house sitter

Pet care experience

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.

April was extremely accommodating for our pup and short notice. We would definitely recommend April for your pet sitting needs. She was very helpful especially with our doodles anxiety and Charlie loved her care and kindness! Definitely would recommend and look forward to our next adventure.

April is the BEST dog sitter I’ve found on Rover so far! When first meeting, she was personable and my dog, Kinney, loved her. April provided daily updates and photos for a week while house/dog sitting. I felt like we had a great line of communication and Kinney was in loving hands while I was away. I’ll definitely be calling her back for any future sitting needs! 😊

This was my second time having April as Kyro’s sitter! And April has become family! She was a super star. She aided him back to great health after he experienced anxiety diarrhea. She was respectful of my home as always and was great at responding fast and giving me updates!

April was great. She kept me updated every step of the way and sent lots of pictures. There were a few rainy days so she wasn't able to walk my babies as often but I know she took great care of them because they were looking for her in the guest room when I got back home. She left my home clean and I plan to rebook her for my trip in April.

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.

Information April V. would like to know about your pet

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.

A typical day

Dog care: I promise to make sure your dog has a blast while I'm dog sitting! To make sure they feel comfortable and loved during their time with me, we'll go on exciting walks to discover new smells and sights, play games like fetch or hide-and-seek to keep them active, and end the day with some soothing belly rubs and cuddles. Cat care: I'll make sure your furry feline has a purr-fectly fun time while I'm watching them! To spark their playful side, we'll play interactive games with feather wands and laser pointers. In order to make sure your cat is comfortable and happy while you are away, I will set up comfortable areas with blankets or bright windows for lounging. We will also enjoy quiet moments of bonding together and gentle grooming. While not all pets are active, we will have a great time engaging in their favorite pastimes if they are.
