Certified Pet Nutrition Specialist - Nationwide

Verified Member since Jan 2026 Verified checkmark

Hi! My name is April - otherwise known as PetCoach-April! I have been offering pet wellness and nutrition consultations for nearly a decade now with great success! I love what I do - there is no better reward in my life than to ease the suffering of a pet and guide their guardian to return their body back to health!

I am certified in pet nutrition as well as am a certified master pet herbalist. Using both nutrition, nutritional supplements and herbal medicines along with other holistic care practices, I have yet to see a pet I could not help.

I look forward to meeting you and helping you and your pet find more happiness through health!

How did you hone your craft?

Over 25 years of working professional with pets, as well as personal pet gaurdianship, and fostering cats and dogs - as well as my professional certifications and a general hunger and thirst for learning and helpign the pets of the world - i research new informaiton every day.

What tip would you give pet parents for working with animals that you've learned as a pro?

The most important thing I can tell anyone who cares for a pet is that every single thing your pet eats is either supporting their optimum health, or diminishing their health - truly every bite is that important.

What is one thing you want pet parents to know about you? It can be whatev-fur you'd like!

In addition to all my expereince with pets, I also have been surviving through a progressive and terminal neurodegenerative disease for the past nearly 2 decades. Doctors are amazed at how well I am still doing - and I credit it completely to my thirst for knowledge of natural health, and the great efforts I put into living an optimum lifestyle of whole foods, low environmental toxins, exercise, fresh air, sunshine.
