Pet care experience

Lifetime animal lover ❤️🐾

I have always had pets.. dogs, cats, chinchillas, birds, and gerbils. I also worked at a vet clinic for 4 years during college. I was also a volunteer with the Blackhawk Wildlife Rehab, rehabilitating animals such as raccoons, deer, eagles and other various birds. I had 2 senior chihuahuas who passed away 2 years ago and now I have a 2 year old English goldendoodle named Sonny. He loves other animals so much.

Candance took great care of our dog and kept us updated with pictures while we were away. Everything went smoothly, and we’d use her again.

Candace did a great job taking care of our Sadie while we were away on a trip. Great communication, shared multiple photos. Will not hesitate to book with Candace again in the future.

Great experience with Spencer and Candace taking care of my dog. They were very nice, helpful, and always responded quickly. I also really appreciated how flexible they were when I had to change the time last minute. I would definitely recommend them!

Candace took the absolute best care of Lilly, lots of pictures and flexibility of picking Lilly up after my flight was delayed. Lilly came back the happiest girl 🩷🐾

Always feel at ease when my dog stays with Candace and Spencer because I know he is very well taken care of!
