I am a Veterinary Technician

Pet care experience

I have owned pets since I was a little girl. I am a veterinary technician that will treat your pet like my own. I have worked in the animal field for 21 years and love what I do. I love all animals dogs, cats and exotics. In my mind animals are to be treated as humans if not better. I will use my experience in the animal field to help with any situations that occur with health or well being of your loved one. I myself have 6 cats and 1 dog. Animals are my world and I love being around them. You can trust me with the life of your beloved pet. Give me a chance to show you what a true animal lover can do for the happiness and well being of your pet.

April was excellent with our older lab for the entire weekend. We never leave her anywhere, she has medications, arthritis, a paralyzed esophagus, and anxiety. I’m so relieved we found her, because we were extremely apprehensive about leaving our dog. April sent us texts and pics the whole time, and the house was perfect when we came home. Chloe was relaxed and happy when we came home. You can tell by the pictures and how the dog is behaving that she was very happy and safe with April.

It says a lot that I have already booked April for another stay with my dog. She bonded right away with my sometimes-cranky dog and sent pictures of him every day. She was also staying at my house during the week I was away and left everything neat and clean. Because April is a vet tech, I felt especially confident that she could handle any problem that came up. I hope she will be available for a long, long time!!

April is an outstanding pet sitter. She took wonderful care of my pets, gave them all the attention they needed, gave them all of their medications and even texted me pictures of my pets while I was away! It made my day when I received pictures of my pets! A

With over 20 years in the veterinary nursing profession, it's clear that April's passion is animals. As a Veterinary Nurse, she is experienced with emergencies and cognizant that fur babies are beloved family members. She can handle any animal as if it's her own. But her best quality is her snuggle-bility. Dogs, cats, birds, heck even fish, respond to her caregiving nature and loving spirit. I highly recommend April Melio for all your pet's needs. Whether big or little, she is the right person for every animal.
