Experienced Veterinary Technician

I have extensive experience caring for pets through both my professional and personal background. As a veterinary professional and manager in the veterinary industry, I have worked closely with dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and temperaments. My experience includes administering medications, monitoring pets for signs of illness, handling anxious or reactive animals, and providing compassionate care tailored to each pet’s needs. I understand the importance of maintaining routines, ensuring safety, and providing regular updates to pet parents. Whether it’s walks, drop-in visits, overnight care, or special medical needs, I am committed to providing reliable, attentive, and loving care

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I care for pets in their home by maintaining their normal routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. This includes feeding, fresh water, walks, potty breaks, playtime, administering medications if needed, cleaning up after them, and providing plenty of love and attention. I also keep pet parents updated with photos and messages so they can have peace of mind while they’re away. 🐾❤️

Oh my gosh! This was our first Rover experience and April made it so easy and stress free!! She sent pictures the whole time and I could tell our dog was very content.

April was SO great taking care of our girl Eve. She can be a little shy at first and has some separation anxiety neither of which phased April. She was patient and playful with Eve and set her right at ease. We also came home to the clean house right like we left it which is also such a relief!

Highly recommend April to watch you pup!!! I have an Akita who is not always the friendliest fella. Because of this, it is important for us to find someone who is confident and diligent around larger, potentially reactive, breeds. April was just that!! My dog took to her instantly! During the stay she kept me well informed on his walks and sent many updates and cute pictures! She quickly became a member of my dogs very little circle of friends - I can tell he really was comfortable around her!! Because of Aprils thorough care for my dog, I was able to relax on my short vacation. We will definitely contact April for future bookings and feel lucky to have come across her. Thank you April!!

April was great and very communicative with us the whole weekend that she watched our two medium sized dogs.

April was absolutely wonderful with our senior pup Chuck! As first-timers trusting someone outside family with him, we couldn't have asked for better care. Her vet tech background gave us huge peace of mind, and she was so communicative and genuinely sweet with Chuck the whole time. 10/10, would book again!
