Reliable Dog Sitting & Walking

I genuinely love all dogs and enjoy giving them the care, attention, and comfort they need while their owners are away. I’m dependable, patient, and great at understanding each dog’s personality and routine. Whether your pup needs walks, playtime, or someone to stay with them and keep them company, I’m here to help. I provide consistent updates and photos so you always know your dog is happy and safe. I treat every dog like family and make sure they feel relaxed, loved, and well cared for.

Safety, trust & environment

You can count on me to give your dog the same level of care and attention I’d want for my own. I offer a safe, comfortable home environment where your pup can relax, play, and feel completely at ease. I handle feeding on a consistent schedule, keep fresh water available at all times, and follow any dietary needs you provide. If your dog requires medication, I administer it carefully and exactly as instructed, making the process smooth and stress‑free. Daily walks are part of my routine too, giving your dog the exercise, stimulation, and potty breaks they need. With me, your pet gets dependable care, clear communication, and plenty of love every step of the way.

Candice was on time for our meet and greet and very responsive when I reached out. I look forward to booking her to watch my dogs the next time I’m out of town. I think she will be patient and kind with my senior dog and give lots of love to my high energy dog!

Candice was great, not being home for a few hours always hurts me, but she definitely gave her a lot of playtime and love. Would definitely choose her again.

Candise was wonderful with my cat Fiona. When i came home, my Fiona was laying very comfortably on Candise's lap! Not unusual for cat to lay on someones lap but Fiona normally only on my lap or my husband's lap. She will jump off if anyone picks her up and tries to get her to lay on their lap.

I expect the dogs I watch to be friendly, safe to handle, and comfortable following a simple routine. As long as they’re gentle, house‑trained, and able to settle in my home, we will get along great!
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.
