Certified Animal Care Specialist
Pet care experience
As a certified Animal Care Specialist and supervisor at my current job (an animal rescue) as well as years of experience in the field, I excel as a dog walker and sitter. My extensive coursework in animal behaviour, welfare, and BASIC veterinary care equips me to handle any situation with expertise and care. Previous roles in a kennel, as well as fostering dogs, have honed my skills in safety protocols and compassionate handling. Additionally, shadowing veterinarians and working in a vet clinic have broadened my understanding of animal health and wellness, ensuring that the pets under my care receive the best possible attention and treatment.
Reviews
Caidence M. cancelled a booking 2 days before it was scheduled to begin.
Caidence was lovely. On time, Good communication, and Ruby liked her.
Caidance is very reliable and Zeus loves her. I am so happy I found her. I definitely recommend her. I have used her services on a weekly basis and I m really happy. I got very lucky to find an awesome dog lover like her. I will also use her for my cats and dog sitting when I will need it. I fully trust her. You would be lucky to have her!
My dog LOVES walking with Caidence! She comes back so happy and ready for a rest. Caidence’s experience and knowledge about dogs is evident and I know our dog is in good hands when they are on a walk together. She is always on time, and excited to see our dog. We have rebooked with her several times and will continue to do so.

Safety, trust & environment
In my line of work there isn’t much I haven’t seen.. which is why I take safety extremely seriously and provide the following tools as precautions, no matter what. -Pet first aid kit -Slip lead incase of leash failure -Glow in the dark equipment for night walks -Freshly cleaned water dish and water for walks - Heathy and high valued treats incase of escapes And more… I promise to send you honest and frequent updates to ensure your pet is acting regularly to its normal behaviour. I feel with my extensive education and experience I am able to advocate for your animals and never put them in situations they may be uncomfortable with.
Information Caidence M. would like to know about your pet
I have experienced all sorts of special needs at the kennel and shelter, I am completely confident and comfortable providing appropriate help and care to many of them. This includes diabetic dogs, mobility issues, dog aggressive dogs, and almost any kind of medication However, I will need notice as to what form of special care I must provide in order to ensure I am confident that I am the best fit for your animal. Please note that meet and greets are always mandatory. Here are some things I MUST know before hand to ensure everyone’s safety. - if the animal has allergies (as I will provide treats unless asked otherwise) - if the animal resource guards - if the animal is aggressive with other animals on or off leash - if the animal has bitten anyone - if the animal is selective with children, men or strangers (to ensure I can avoid on walks) - if the animal is prone to escaping I am comfortable assisting with any of the animals that have struggled with the problems above. However, I need to know in advance to ensure I am appropriately equipped. Thank you!
A typical day
Besides my 8 hour work day, on weekend and after work I am highly adaptable and willing to work with any schedule you see fitting for pets needs best. As someone who has researched and done courses on animal enrichment, I believe is keeping pets entertained and satisfied. If you have a trained animal I don’t mind keeping up with its training for you or just standard playing, hiking extra.
