I came home to two very relaxed and happy pups and was able to go away on business without worry, knowing they were in great hands. 😊

I am so happy I have found Kandy to help me when I have to be gone from my home for long hours. She is very thorough and really gives a lot of attention to detail. She is very knowledgeable, kind, and flexible. I get very worried about my two senior dogs when I have to be gone, and now I have a level of confidence that they will be ok when I can’t be there if she is with them. It’s a real gift to have her look after them and I’m very glad I found her!

Great sitter and obviously an animal lover to her core. Both my fur kiddos loved her and were very happy and relaxed when I returned home. Really professional and easy to work with too!

Kandi went above and beyond for my boy Rummy. Having this be our first time using rover we could not be happier with our experience with her! Daily photos and videos gave us reassurance that Rummy was in the best hands! Thank you so much!

Safety, trust & environment

Services Offered: Feeding, grooming, and maintaining a clean and safe environment. Regular exercise and playtime to keep your pet happy and healthy. Administering medications, including insulin, as prescribed. Attending to special dietary requirements. Offering companionship and TLC, ensuring your pet feels secure and loved in your absence.

Information Kandy Marie M. would like to know about your pet

Please have your veterinary clinic updates, any special instructions regarding if feedings are needed, level of energy, and anything special your loved one needs from me. If there is a prior bite history, please let me know the details as it is not an automatic declination.

A typical day

Playtime: I would engage in interactive play sessions with the dogs, incorporating their favorite toys and games. This could include fetch, tug-of-war, or simply providing them with plenty of attention and belly rubs. Walks: Dogs benefit from regular exercise, so I would plan daily walks to help them stay active and explore their surroundings. The specific locations for walks would depend on the dog's energy level, temperament, and any specific requirements they may have. Rover encourages safe, enjoyable outdoor adventures, but I would always stay within familiar, dog-friendly neighborhoods or parks. Nature Hikes: If the dog is particularly active and enjoys the outdoors, I might take them on nature hikes or trails. This is a great way for dogs to experience different environments and get some fresh air. Dog Parks: If the dog is social and enjoys interacting with other dogs, I could take them to a local dog park to play with other furry friends. Special Places: When it comes to special places for walks, I would consider nearby parks, nature reserves, and quiet streets with minimal traffic. Dogs often enjoy new smells and environments, so I'd choose places that provide them with an engaging and safe experience. Customized Activities: Above all, I would adapt my activities and walk locations to the dog's individual personality, energy levels, and any specific requirements they may have, ensuring they have the most enjoyable and comfortable experience possible. It's important to note that the safety and well-being of the dogs I watch would always be my top priority, and I would follow any guidelines and instructions provided by their owners to create the best experience for each dog in my care.
