April has been a veterinary technician for 8 years and is working towards becoming a licensed technician. She always had a love of animals, even spending her summers with her grandpa taking care of the farm animals, spending hours talking with the animals, and reading to them. That level of care and attention has influenced the type of technician she strives to be.

April loves educating pet parents on the care of their fur babies. She also enjoys working with patients in recovery from dental cleanings and surgeries.
When working as a recovery nurse, she ensures that their recovery is smooth and that the pet parent is educated on home care after the procedure. She also spends time talking to them and giving them the love and attention they deserve.

April and her husband have 3 dogs Honey, Ben, and Clay that keep them busy.

Aria is a Veterinary Assistant and a future Veterinary Technician. She is currently enrolled in the Veterinary Technician program at Penn Foster.

Aria started as truBOND’s receptionist but has quickly worked her way up to becoming a veterinary assistant. Aria’s love for animals goes beyond cats and dogs and pours into wildlife, where she is licensed as a rehabilitator through Texas Parks and Wildlife.

The only thing she adores more than helping animals is her husband and their four children. Aria has an assortment of rescued fur babies as well ranging from a 140 lb great dane to a 3-legged raccoon.
