Information Candi C. would like to know about your pet

Any health or disposition issues. If I know ahead of time I can ensure a positive experience. For example; I have one sensitive to heat so his walk time is shorter. Another is cat aggressive so i keep an eye out for kitties.

A typical day

I enjoy taking my dogs to the many parks in texarkana and allowing them to experience new surroundings. Walking paths with plenty of shade is important. I like to let them do their dog things like smell the smells(checking "pee-mail") roll in the grass and enjoy bonding time on a leash.

Pet care experience

I have been a cat and dog owner my entire life. As well as horses, goats and various farm animals. Working with Operation Roger I fostered and transported many animals cross country, mostly special needs and rescues. Currently, I have 3 dogs ranging in age from 9 mo to 14 years old. The baby is a Great Pyraneese rescue. My 7 year old German Shepherd is a special needs pup, fostered from the pound. He stole my heart and I couldnt resist adopting him. My little Yorkie mix was rescued 11 years ago. She does a remarkable job comforting and teaching all the rescues and fosters that have come in and out of her life. Visiting nursing homes as a comfort pet is among her favorite passtimes.

Candi is a natural. You can tell when someone loves animals because animals naturally love them. I have 2 very anti social cats and they instantly wanted to be buddies with Candi. She did a great job for us and will definitely be our go-to when we travel now. 10/10 would recommend.

Candi has been an absolute life saver. I go on cruises with my family and it is such a relief to know we have a safe, reliable and just fantastic sitter to look after the bunnies. I'll definitely be hiring her again.

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
