I am April Barnett (a.b.) owner of a.b.'s fuzzy babies and proud parent of two fuzzy felines. I have been taking care of pets in and around the Mid City area for 17+ years.
Since 1994 Pet Sitters International has been the world's largest educational organization for professional pet sitters and dog walkers and I have been a proud member for 17 years and received my accreditation as a Certified Professional Pet Sitter.
I am also insured, bonded, background checked through Acutraq, certified in Pet CPR/First Aid and...I was voted 2023's Neighborhood Fave by Nextdoor.com!
After a decade in corporate America, I decided it was time for a change. Reflecting on the joy I experienced years before as a personal assistant to celebrity clients and caring for their pets; I realized my passion for animals combined with pet sitting was the perfect fit.
From a young age, pets have been cherished members of my family. When I traveled, it was a relief to know that someone was not only caring for my fuzzy babies but also adding a layer of security to my home.
I wanted to offer that same peace of mind to others, and that's how a.b.'s fuzzy babies started. I look forward to providing you with exceptional service!
My mission is to offer comfort, peace of mind and reliability to my clients by ensuring their pets receive exceptional care from a professional pet sitter. Through personalized in-home visits, I provide both comfort and security, adapting to each pet’s evolving needs. I believe in honesty, integrity, accountability, a strong work ethic and providing clients full disclosure on their pet's health and well being. I am committed to continually expanding my knowledge of pet care, fostering long-lasting, trusting relationships with both my clients and their beloved pets.
