Information Candy J. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any special needs or medical attention before we meet! That way I can prepare properly! I don’t mind active breeds as I have dog sat various types of lively pets!

A typical day

We will go on walks to the park and if allowed, visit the dog park so they can socialize with their dog friends. If it’s kitties, I will play with their toys to stimulate their minds and help them be active!

Pet care experience

I have experience with small and large dogs. I have grown up with dogs in my family and have learned the needs that are specific to certain breeds. I have walked Morkies, Boxers, Rottweilers, Black Labs, Havanese, and many other breeds of dogs. I can handle energetic puppies and dogs since I have had experience with them in the past. I have walked small dogs and large dogs for other families before. I also enjoy taking the dogs I have or watch to the dog park to play fetch or play with other dogs in a leash-free setting. I also have some experience training my own dogs and tips I have picked up along the way for certain dog behaviors. I can handle baths and light grooming if needed.

Candy took great care of Selene while I was out of town. She sent daily pictures of activities and constantly updated me with how Selene was doing while I was away. Would recommend to anyone looking for a dog sitter!

Candy took awesome care of my Siberian Husky Selene. She took Selene on daily walks and checked on her multiple times a day while I was out of town. Will absolutely book her again!!

Candy is a caring and loving dog owner who excels with walking and watching others pups. She is a go to person among family and friends when they are looking for a sitter. Any dog parent should feel very comfortable with her caring for their pet.

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.
