About: I have a German Shepherd myself, so I understand big dog needs. I provide patient, loving care for all pets—puppies, seniors, and everything in between. I work full-time 10–6 but have 30-minute breaks to check in. I’m fully available on weekends for walks, playtime, cuddles, love, and quality pet care. I have a large fenced yard for safe play, a friendly German Shepherd, and a peaceful neighborhood perfect for fun, relaxed walks and outdoor time.
About: I have taken care of different kinds of pets since I was a little girl. I have had to give medicine to them. I have also taken care of young, old, and high anxiety furry friends. They deserve love and care while you’re away. I work during the week 8am-5pm Monday- Friday (sometimes I get off early on Fridays). I also work right around the corner from where I live and get a hour lunch. I can easily let them out to go potty and play with them especially after I get home. I am off on the weekends so I can definitely be with them all day then. I have a fenced in yard. I have 1 dog and 2 cats to keep your fur baby company! I also have a nice comfy crate as well as a baby gate if needed.
About: I have had dogs all my life! I started watching other people’s animals when I was 15 and I also worked on a farm during that time. I worked as a veterinary technician for 2 years and have a keen eye when it comes to dogs! I rescued my own dog almost 4 years ago and life has been great with him! I would give your animal the same care I would give my own! And let me tell you … my boy miiight be a bit spoiled! I currently work Monday through Friday and I am away from the house 8-5. On weekends I would be able to give the pups my time and attention. I am very active and enjoy bringing my dog on quiet trails or out to the park. My dog River is a chihuahua mix that is very good with other animals. If I am to come to you, it would either just be me or River (my dog) and myself depending on what your animal is most comfortable with! You and your home will be treated with respect at all times. We give lots of snuggles and scheduled feedings, and I am fine with administering medication. Your dog will feel like they are on vacation when they are with me!
“Candace was wonderful. She helped me out last minute over thanksgiving. My dog came home calm and happy. She loved Candace’s dogs and I received lots of updates. We will definitely use her again!”
About: I have been around for 19 years and have owned a pet every single one of them. I have nursed my childhood dog from his rescuse up until his trip to heaven. I adore taking care of my babies I have right now both dogs and cats. I have given my most recent kitten her shots and have been able to teach almost all my pets simple things like sitting and staying. I love spending time with animals and would appreciate time in caring for yours. I am available all day on weekends and during the weekdays I can come in early in the morning to Feed, Walk, or any other Care you would like extended to your pets. I get off work around 3 and can show up to your residence at 4:00 or anytime after for Bed Time, Sitting, Walks, Feeding, and anything else you would like done. I can stay and entertain your animal in your home, keeping them fed and safe. I am fairly active so taking trips to the park and going on walks is always a welcome activety. In the event I am asked to care for your pet in my home I myself have 2 kittens and 2 rooms in the event that they get scared. My kittens are very outgoing and love playing with eachother so I see no problem. My male kitten is not sexually mature to be neutred yet but in a few weeks we have an appointment set up. I will update this when he gets fixed.

Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
