I treat them as my own babies. I make sure that they are taken care of and all the needs that they have are met. I want them to feel comfortable in their environment and feel like an extended family member is taking care of them while you are away. They will be played with, exercised, fed, and able to take care of business outside every 4-5 hrs a day

Information Candice C. would like to know about your pet

It is important to know a little bit of the background of how the owner came about owning the dog. Does the dog have training. Has the dog ever attacked another dog or been attacked. Has it been socialized. Lastly has the dog ever been to a dog park.

A typical day

I was living in the mountains and normally I would love to go hiking with dogs up there. Now being in the city, I would play with them inside allow them to go in the yard and play and do their business. Make sure they are well hydrated. Let them play with the other dogs if they want to. I like to do basic training with the dogs. As well as stimulating and fun games that make them happy and tired. Dogs learn and progress every day. They are smart and feel just like we do. I would be willing to take your baby to the dog park, but only if it is requested.

Pet care experience

I have helped several friends and family members pet sit; and train their dogs. I absolutely adore animals. Specifically dogs and cats. I have experience with all ages, breeds, and sizes. I have rescued many dogs, and some in horrible conditions bringing them back to life with extra care and attention. If I could rescue, help, and love every dog and cat. I would. 🙏💕 I am a caregiver as my primary job, and it is very flexible schedule. I am able to be home a lot when needed. I have a big heart, patient, observant, and detailed oriented. I am able to administer medications and injections as needed. I know each of my dogs have specific needs and regimens. So I would give your babies the same love and attention to their needs. I live in a large home with a yard that is fenced in. It is a 8ft brick wall all the way around. I have the capability of having your dogs kennel and necessary things in my home in their own space, or they can be together with my pups. Anything is possible! I am very flexible to cater to the needs of your babies 🩷 Treat others how you would want to be treated. In other words I would treat your babies how I would want mine to be treated, and mine are spoiled 😂🥰

Candice went above and beyond and worked to make sure my higher anxiety dog accepted her.

Candice was born to be with dogs. She has given much of her life to not only her own rescues, but to all dogs. She calms them, connects with them, gently teaches them to get along with others. Her bright smile and blue eyes come to life when she is around them. Their tails wag and they run to her, sensing her enthusiasm and genuine love for them. 🐕 🐶 ❤️
