I'd avoid any kind of shop if possible. How about a friendly co-
worker (could be done in the parking lot at work) or landlord, or 
girlfriend, or neighborhood kid, or random passer-by? It doesn't take 
any real skill to just turn the key and most people are willing to 
help once they get over the surprise of being asked.  

Just be clear about exactly what you're going to do and what you 
need them to do to help.  

I was once desperate for help bleeding some brakes. I got the 8 
year old kid from next door to help. I think it REALLY made his 
day, and I made a friend forever.  ;-)
