Pet care experience
I am a 26 year old massage therapist/drafting and design graduate. I worked for over 4 years as a dog bather at Paws Palace Grooming Shop and I still pick up shifts there. My duties included bathing, nail trimming, pads, teeth brushing, blow drying and brushing out tangles. It's a very fun job and it's great getting to love on the dogs throughout the process. Some need a little coaching and extra care in the bath (because water can be scary!) Along with having my own dog for 16 years and working at a dog grooming shop I have plenty of experience around and caring for dogs young and elderly. Being a massage therapist, my special skills would be that I am very patient and seem to have a calming effect through touch. My dog of 16 years passed last year and in her old age I really came to enjoy the responsibility of caring for a senior dog. Their little gray faces warm my heart!
Reviews
April was a wonderful sitter. She was extremely easy to work with, and very patient with our six-month old Weim puppy. She sent us daily pics which we really enjoyed. He came home very happy and calm. We felt lucky to have her take care of him for 8 days over Christmas!
April was easy to work with. She sent us pictures of Zoey and gave us updates. She appeared very responsible and good with dogs. I will use her services again.
My dog, Bentley, stayed with April for 9 nights. She took wonderful care of him. She sent me at least two, often three updates and pictures per day and they went for many walks and had a lot of cuddle time. Without hesitation, I would definitely have April take care of my little fur baby again. Thank you, Ashley! You made my time away from Bentley very stress free!! 5-star service!!
I enjoyed meeting April and I am sure that my Gizmo did as well. She was very attentive to my little senior doggie and the picture updates showed that he was in good hands!

I love to go to Sharon Woods and parks where the trails aren't concrete but rather a dirt path through the woods. I love that atmosphere and I know the dog's love the adventure also.
