Pet care experience
I have been caring for pet since I was very young. We had a dog, cat, goat, ducks, chickens, rabits and fish at different times while I was growing up. As an adult I have had 2 dogs, 3 cats, chickens, ducks and fish. I currently have 2 cats and my room mate is available to care for them if I am house sitting. I have done some house/pet sitting for people on the Trusted House Sitters site and can direst you to my reviews there. I also volunteer as a dog walker at the Humane Society. I am looking forward to getting to know many more pet friends and enjoying their unique personalities. I run my own business from home and work as much or as little as I want, which allows me to be available to care for others pets. I also can share my google profile if you would like to see the reviews for my other business. For drop in care I would expect that I would follow the owner's directions including playing with the dog or cat in the house or back yard. For house sitting I would also walk dogs once or twice a day depending on their needs and follow what ever instructions are left form me as far as feeding, medications, etc.
Reviews
Candis O. cancelled a booking 1 day before it was scheduled to begin.
I’m very pleased with the care Candis gave my pets and the security she provided my house while I was out of town. When I returned the animals were happy and well cared for. The house was clean. That was a joy to come home to. Candis stayed in touch with me daily. I would hire her again!
Candis is the sweetest! My pets were happy and well cared for. She sent me pictures and updates which were so kind. She had her hands full with 4 teen kittens and one very old yorkie… I would highly recommend her and trust her
I have known Candis for many years. She is caring with both people and pet. She is a hard worker with integrity who I would definitely hire to care for my own pets.

Safety, trust & environment
I would follow any instructions of the pet owner such as feeding, scooping litter, letting outside, playing with cats or dogs in a way that they like and give them snuggles.
Information Candis O. would like to know about your pet
I would want to know if there are any behavior issues I should look out for such as does the dog try to escape when I open the door. I would want to know if they are easy to handle while walking or if they pull hard, etc. How much food do they eat at each meal and what are their typical meal times. What are their favorite toys and activities.
A typical day
With dogs I usually thow a ball or other toy that they like to catch. I would play tug of war with them if they like that. I would brush them if that is something they enjoy. If I were house sitting they would also get lots of snuggles.

Availability
I am able to fit pet care into my work schedule since I am a business owner working from home. I usually set work appointments a few days in advance so I would know what times I have available for drop in and walking.
