Pet care experience

Walks and Visits

I have used Rover for years and couldn't be more grateful for the awesome sitters I have found for my dogs. Now that I am retired early, I'd love to return the favor by offering to help others with their dogs. I walk and hike everyday and until my current dog, have always owned big dogs. I understand how important it is to follow your directions for your dog, they are like kids and they all have special routines to follow. I'm happy to provide walks, day care and boarding for dogs that get along with my pup. A meet and greet is a must so I can meet you and learn how to best care for your pup.

I highly recommend Candy for dog walking or anything related to caring for animals. She is reliable, caring, trustworthy, and truly wonderful to work with. She is dependable, communicates well, and treats every dog as if it were their own.

Safety, trust & environment

I have a pup of my own due to a foster failure, I just couldn't give him up. I have trained.and handled lot of different types of dogs as a volunteer for HARP and Canine Companions. I will always treat your pet as if it were one of my own. They will get a long leisurely walk with lots of time to sniff and explore. I'll make sure they are settled in when we return home and have fresh water. Your instructions will be followed and I'll always leave you a note and keep in touch as directed.

Pets

A typical day

I'll make sure your pup gets the attention they need while on our walk and when I drop him back at home. I'll make sure he is settled in before I leave him if you feel he needs the extra attention. Happy to text and send pictures to let you know they are doing well.
