Pet care experience

Animal Lover!

My pets are my family. I currently own two horses three dogs and board a horse that gets treated like my own. I’ve had dogs, my whole life and horses since I was 12. I live on 40 acres a feel my pets are living their best life. They are treated like family and always make my days better. If you were to trust me with your pets, they would be treated like family as well. I can’t wait to meet your furry friend. Happy Tails.

She asked if she could take our dog in her car. He loves car rides, but needs a ramp to get into vehicles, so she used the ramp we had available and had blankets for him to sit on. A nice extra for our dog while we were gone! Lots of great pics, incuding a video of a beautiful autumn walk; we enjoyed hearing him howl with a siren.

Candia was great! She was very responsive and easy to communicate with. After the initial meet and greet we could tell she was an animal lover and felt comfortable with her being in our home and caring for our fur babies. We’d definitely hire her again.

Excellent happiness-generating attention to our pets with very good amount of outdoor time that included photos and a video. Our dog bonded at the meet'n'greet. Reliable!

Candia was great! She kept us updated with photos and made us feel so comfortable leaving our dogs for the weekend.

Candia was a great fit for my dogs! She was very respectful of my home and cleaned up after herself. I appreciated her prompt communication. I will definitely book with her again!

I’ve been friends with Candia for over 10 years now. We met through the horse world. We travel for horse shows most wkds in the summer. We spend a lot of time together in tight quarters and in high stress situations. Shes always a “one step ahead” kind of person. She’s also cared for my horse at her stable for 5 years now, and I’d trust her with his life. She is looking to retire from her career as a dental hygienist, and working with animals would be the perfect position for her! She is incredibly knowledgeable and responsible. Her dogs are her family, and have lived the absolute best life and always have the best care. She is also very down to earth and easy to talk to, so I think everyone would feel comfortable having her care for their pets. She would love to take care of pets, and I know pets love her, so working with Rover would be a perfect fit!
