Hello, my name is Candice! I have had dogs my whole life including a german sheppard mix who was born at my house and a deaf australian shepherd. I worked at a dog and cat boarding facility for 6+ years in Southern California until moving here for college (UC Davis). While working there I would walk 50+ dogs per day of all breeds and temperaments. I would also care for all the dogs (feed, water, clean up after, exercise, light grooming) including special needs dogs. I gave oral medication and feed them according to their dietary needs. I currently work for the California Department of Fish and Wildlife as a scientific aid studying small mammals and reptiles. I love the outdoors and would love a walking/jogging buddy to keep me going!
