Availability
I do work full time, but my schedule is pretty flexible, as I set my own hours. My full time job is hybrid, remote three days a week and I travel two days a week. Those days are not set, but I prefer to travel on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I am a great communicator and will always provide ample notice if I am not available, and I am happy to work with you to my best ability.

About Candace J.
Communication
Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
When it comes to pet sitting, I ensure your furry family members feel safe, loved, and at ease. I prefer pet sitting in the client home because this is where your pets are going to be the most comfortable. I prioritize maintaining their routines and creating a calm, familiar atmosphere. From feeding schedules and walks to playtime and snuggles, I follow your instructions to the letter, ensuring your pets feel cared for and content while you’re away. I also find it important to maintain a clean, comfy, and secure space. With my years of experience, I understand the importance of communication and will keep you updated with regular check-ins and photos, so you can rest easy knowing your pets are in loving hands. My goal is to provide the same level of care and attention I would for my own pets, ensuring their happiness and well-being every step of the way.

A typical day
Your pet will enjoy personalized care, tailored to their unique needs and personality. For energetic pups, we’ll explore outdoors with walks, hikes, or playful games of fetch. If your furbaby prefers a slower pace, we’ll relax with leisurely strolls or cuddle time. I also love incorporating fun enrichment activities like treat puzzles, training sessions, and plenty of belly rubs. Whether it’s tug-of-war, sunbathing, or cozying up on the couch, your pet will always feel loved, entertained, and safe in my care.
