About: I started off younger just walking dogs in the neighborhood. I recently worked in a vet clinic as a technician. Watching the pets, cleaning the pets walking and pretty much any and everything I could do so the pets were comfortable. I am widely available. Don’t hesitate to get in touch with me even if it is at the last minute. I love pets and I will do my best to make sure your pet is well cared for. I like to first listen to what the client says. I know some pets have different tendencies. I know some clients would rather I keep the pet inside and some prefer more walking and activity. You can trust me to do what you need for your pet.

About: I have been taking care of and had many dogs for over 15 years! I love dogs and cats of all ages and have 3 sweet pups and a cat of my own 😊 I can help train your new puppy or relax with your senior dog. Whatever style fits! I own my own business and have a lot of free time during the week for your dog or cat care needs. I do travel often on the weekends, but can accommodate weekend sitting if reached out to at least 14 days in advance. I have a fully fenced in yard available for your furry friends and 3 extremely friendly and playful dogs of my own. Your pet will be very well taken care of here!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all ages & sizes, as well as cats with a wide range of temperaments. I truly enjoy spending time with and caring for animals, so you can have peace of mind that your pet is safe and comfortable while you’re away. I currently work remotely and have lots of time to dote on your furry friend! I’m also available to check in on your home - I do have a cat of my own so would prefer to sit at yours. My goal is for your pet to feel as secure as possible in your absence. Whether that means long walks, play sessions, or giving them space to warm up, I approach care in a personalized way for each animal.

About: I am experienced with both large and small dogs. I can give medication/help reluctant pets eat. I am a huge fan of walks and will love your pet like my own! I grew up with a Rhodesian ridgeback and I have spent time petsitting for friends and neighbors (both cats and dogs). I am currently a college student, so having a pets is not practical for me right now, but I often interact with friend’s pets regularly and sit for people whenever needed! I can take pets out for the bathroom on a long walk or in the yard with a poop bag. I am very adaptable depending on the locatIon and take instructions well!

About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and small pets. I have an undying passion and love for animals of all ages, shapes, and sizes. I would call myself a ‘dog whisperer.’ All of my friends find it amazing that I love dogs as much as I do. I am also currently in the process of obtaining one of the most reputable certifications of becoming a professional dog trainer. Being that I also may have a bit of OCD when it comes to cleanliness— your home will not only be cared for but will be spotless upon your return! If there are plants in the home as well, I can also make sure that those get watered and cared for as needed. It’s an understatement to say I am attentive to detail. I am currently attending school for a few certifications so I believe most of my attention in the mornings and evening will still be focused on the pets I’ll be caring for. I have a condo located in Uptown Charlotte hence why I can only host one small dog along with my own two pups(Doberman and Chiweenie.)

“Admiration, fascination, and dedication are the three best descriptive words for April's love for animals. She admires each animal she meets for who the animal is, not a "breed".
