Poppy absolutely loves Candace! She is so professional and it’s such relief having her take poppy outside while we are working.

Candace is so professional and fantastic to work with. She took our dog for walks while we were at work, and it really set us at ease to know that our girl was being taken care of.

Safety, trust & environment

My home is centrally located in Ankeny, IA with a large privacy fenced back yard (1/3 ac). I have 2 mid-sized (50-65lbs) friendly dogs of my own. Penny (Golden Retriever) is 8 years young with playful yet submissive energy. Benor (Aussie/Lab Mix) is 1 year old with energy that doesn't quit! Both are very excitable, so I am very used to being smothered with attention! With previous pet care industry work I am very flexible to your needs including, but not limited to - walking - potty breaks - geriatric pet care - special needs care - feeding - administering medications (Experience with eye drops, pill form, insulin injections, and more) - mess clean up - solo care in your home - play dates with my pets
