Auntie Candie ~ Will sing to pets:)

Pet care experience

Good day, pet-owners! I do not have a dog or cat, but I am an Aunt to many fur-nephews and fur-nieces (whom, I affectionately refer to as my little fluffers). I'm a responsible music teacher in my early 30's who really loves to respect and follow rules. I have many years experience living with, walking, and training animals. I care for my sister's Blenheim Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and Cat for seven years and still walk her dog daily. I have cared for/walked: ~ Chill/friendly dogs and cats ~ Aggressive dogs ~ A Ruby Cavalier King Charles Spaniel ~ A Malmut Husky ~ A Siberian Husky ~ A Toy Poodle ~ A Cocka-Chon ~ And helped train/care for an adult Golden-Doodle rescue, a Portuguese Water Dog, as well as two German Sheppards. I dearly love animals, and am passionate about treating them well. I'm a firm believer that if my fluffers do not like/are nervous with a person we meet...then there is a good chance that there is a fine reason. Canine's know! Whatever did humans do to deserve doggos? Whatever it as, I sure am glad for our relationship with four-legged furry friends! I have also taken care of several cats, there's a reason why they have taken over the internet, cuteness overload! :)

Candice is the most caring, kind, positive person I've ever met. This translates to the way she treats animals. My 80lb husky can be a pain in the keister at times and has a strong personality to boot, but she LOVES Candice.Candice has that great balance of being kind and bubbly but knowing that dogs need someone to be firm at times. I can say with 100% confidence that I always know my bratty fur child is in safe hands with Candice.

Information Candice L. would like to know about your pet

I love all breeds, am not afraid of anxious/vocal dogs. In order to provide the best care to pets, I would love to know about any present leash-aggression, food/environmental allergies , medications, and anxieties (loud sounds, vacuums, brooms, etc) before committing to caring for an animal.

A typical day

I love to walk dogs on-leash and off-leash, in any weather, as I am an avid hiker and love being in the woods. I often play guitar or ukulele and sing to pets, serenading them with songs and giggles. Things I'll do for pets: ~ Play fetch, tug-toy or cat toy for hours ~ Give massages, butt scratches, and belly rubs. ~ Take friendly-pets to dog parks ~ Keep unfriendly/aggressive pets away from dog parks ~ Cuddle as much as the pet wishes ~ Administer ear/eye drops and oral medication ~ Bathe animals ~ Soak paws and apply topical medication ~ Use hand signals for tricks/commands ~ Brush out fur ~ Safely and calmly cut out matted knots ~ And, I have become a PRO at putting dog-boots on paws with calm ease and great success.
