"Your babies are my babies!"

Pet care experience

I have been taking care of pets since I was just about a teenager. I have experience with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, fish, and snakes. My dogs are my life and so I treat them as if they are family. My dogs are allowed on furniture, beds, and I love cuddles and kisses! I am looking forward to helping people feel comfortable leaving their pets at their home away from home knowing that they will be left getting the best care possible. I am comfortable with puppies all the way up to senior dogs. I am also comfortable with special needs pets, or pets requiring medication. I am an ICU nurse baseline so I have extensive knowledge of disease processes and medications. Please contact me with any questions you may have. I am also certified in pet CPR and first aide. I always go above and beyond to ensure your pet is safe, comfortable, and gets sent home with little extras so both your pets and parents remember us! This includes to-go treat bags, report cards, doggo art work, seasonally themed bandannas, and more! Doggo activities are always planned daily to include free-roaming playtime inside / out, scavenger hunts, bubble parties, neighborhood field trips, and others (weather permitting). We take plenty of photos and videos during your pet's stay! We try our best to share those throughout your pet's stay and put together an album after your pet has returned home sent thru Rover!

Thank you for taking great care of Sydney on the 16th. All the pictures showed what an awesome time he was having. Sydney thanks you so much for the doggie treat and excellent report card during his day care. He was so exhausted he passed out not long after we came home. He can't wait to come and play again with all his new friends. We highly recommend April for all your doggie needs.

April did such a great job with our pup. She is a Shiba Inu, and dog lovers know how finicky these guys can be. Tilly also has separation anxiety. We were so worried about finding a great place for her when we have to travel. She loved April's place. You can tell she was happy and had great care. We will definitely bring Tilly back to April, and it is a load off of our mind that we have found someone we can trust.

April was fantastic and made sure Tango got lots of play time. I really enjoyed that he was one of the family while we were away and did not need to be kenneled at all.

April is amazing! She was able to keep up with our highly active (1year old) doodle and give him the exercise he requires! She was also able to care for our 12 year old who typically never feels comfortable when we leave yet he played with the other dogs and was out and about instead of hiding. We also received art work that our pup did which we appreciate so much, she truly cares! We were able to go away and not worry about the pups like we typically do! We will 100% be booking with April / pawboss again :).

Safety, trust & environment

I have a two- story house with a fenced yard. Everything is dog proof and I have two English bulldogs of my own to keep your babies entertained. I'm not afraid to get down and play with the big dogs either! I treat my dogs as if they are royalty so your babies are welcome to nap on my couches, beds, or wherever they may fall asleep! I believe people should be able to go to work and receive exceptional care for their pets while they are away.

Information April T. would like to know about your pet

Please don't hesitate to let us know about your pet's daily routine, how and when they're fed, where they usually sleep, if they need crated at night, or any other considerations necessary to ensure your fur-babies are as comfortable as possible while staying with us at Paw Boss. We have all the necessary equipment needed to ensure your dog has the best stay possible to include crates, feeding and water bowls, and dog feeders that rise or lower to your dog's desired height.

A typical day

We strive to provide unlimited play time and interaction. Your pets will never be left alone, crated, or separated from the pack unless requested by the paw-rents. Every dog has free roam of the house inside, and outside within our safe, fenced-in yard. There are tons of dog toys to go around - balls, chewies, and stuffed animals! We love taking our guests for walks around the neighborhood to provide additional stimulation and exploration to ensure a happy doggo while with us.

I am currently not working and free full- time for daycare, boarding, and walks. I have two English bulldogs at this time so my day revolves around feeding, meds, playtime, naps, and doggy baths! Paw Boss and the care of your pets is my primary and only attention throughout their stay. Pets will never be kenneled or isolated unless on the preference of the owner.
