April can care for
Availability
Caring for animals fits naturally into my routine. I work PRN, which gives me flexibility in my schedule. I only accept bookings that I can fully commit to, and once care is confirmed, your companion’s routine and needs are my priority. I plan my days carefully to ensure every visit, walk, or check-in is consistent and reliable.

About April T.

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I care for animals exclusively in their own homes, where they feel safest and most at ease. I treat every companion like family, offering play, comfort, and consistency while maintaining routines. I’m thorough with care and always make sure your home is left exactly as I found it.
Information April T. would like to know about your pet
It’s helpful to know about any special needs, medical considerations, anxiety around new people, or safety concerns such as door-dashing or escaping. I’m always happy to schedule a meet & greet beforehand so everyone feels comfortable and confident moving forward.
A typical day
A typical day is centered around keeping your companion happy, engaged, and comfortable. This may include neighborhood walks, playtime at home (such as fetch or interactive games), lots of affection and head rubs, brushing or light grooming when appropriate, and administering medication as needed and as instructed.

Pet care experience
Animals have been a meaningful part of my life for as long as I can remember. They’re family members who bring comfort, joy, and unconditional love, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. For over 20 years, I’ve helped families care for their beloved companions—both dogs and cats. I previously owned and operated an in-home dog boarding business, Play With Des, in Hong Kong for six years. The business was inspired by my late best friend of 16 years, Desmond. Seeing him grow more confident and social simply by being around other dogs was incredibly rewarding and remains one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. Through my work, I’ve cared for dogs and cats of many breeds, ages, temperaments, and abilities. I truly enjoy cats and appreciate their unique personalities, independence, and routines. Many of the families I worked with trusted me long-term and returned year after year. I’m comfortable supporting companions with health concerns or special needs and always aim to care for them as if they were my own. Whether it’s walks or check-ins, I’m happy to provide dependable, thoughtful care so you can feel at ease knowing your family member is in loving, experienced hands.
