Pet care experience

As a PhD student with 15+ years of experience, I'm organized, responsible, and committed to providing high-quality care. I have a special knack for connecting with furry family members—whether they're energetic, shy, or somewhere in between. I take the time to learn each dog's unique personality and have been trusted by neighbors, family, friends, and colleagues throughout Columbus, OH and beyond!

Candice has been a great pet sitter! I have had the pleasure of hiring her care for Miles, my cat daughter, over the past 3 years. I appreciate the daily pictures and updates she provides that demonstrates how far she goes to provide care and comfort for our pets while we're away! Always thankful for her!

Candice took great care of my dog while I was away on an international trip. My dog struggles with significant separation anxiety, and she handled it with patience, consistency, and genuine care. She went above and beyond to keep him happy and engaged, taking him on long walks, playing with him regularly, and preparing lots of enrichment activities like Kongs and lick mats. She was also diligent about administering his medication on schedule. But the most important thing, my dog absolutely loves her! He is noticeably more relaxed and less anxious when he’s in her care, which gives me peace of mind when I’m away. I would highly recommend Candice to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and compassionate pet sitter or dog walker.
