I stay at home when I am boarding your pets so they have my full attention almost always. If I have to run to the store or anything like that, I have a Furbo camera so I can check in and talk with your pet and even toss them a treat or two while I’m away.

Information Candace & Jimmy A. would like to know about your pet

I have no breed preference - I love all breeds. The only concern is how your dog handles other dogs so that I can prepare the house to keep them separate if needed.

A typical day

We have a fantastic neighborhood with 6 cul-de-sacs and only one entrance/exit. It’s great for walks and I try to make sure each dog gets at least one walk a day, usually in the evening once it cools down.

Pet care experience

Hi, I'm Candace! I've been a dog lover and owner my entire life, growing up in a household where training and caring for dogs was second nature. My mom and I even trained a toy schnauzer to be a certified service dog for my father! At home, our three Boston Terriers rule the roost. While the two older ones prefer to lounge in the back room, our youngest is always excited to make new furry friends. I do my best to be attentive and responsive to each dog’s unique personality and needs. I never rush or pressure a dog to do anything they’re uncomfortable with. Every pup has their quirks—one of mine is scared of shiny floors, another is afraid of certain water bowls—so I make a point to be flexible and understanding. Because every dog is different, I typically keep boarded dogs separate from ours for the first half-day. This gives them time to settle in and adjust to a new environment at their own pace. Once they seem relaxed and comfortable, I slowly introduce them to our Boston Terriers, one at a time. This gradual approach has led to much smoother transitions than doing all the introductions right away. Our home is well set up for both safety and fun, with plenty of space for play, relaxation, and quiet time as needed. My boyfriend, Jimmy, and I have lived together for 14 years, and we’ve cared for hundreds of dogs over the years—proudly maintaining a 5-star rating! We're both very hands-on, making sure every pup gets regular potty breaks, walks, and plenty of affection. I’d love the opportunity to meet your pup and provide them with a safe, loving, and fun environment while you’re away!

She was amazing with my pets! She took such great care of my golden doodle, Winnie, and my chihuahua. They were happy, relaxed, and clearly loved spending time with her. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. Thank you !!!😊

Candace did an incredible job. She is very thorough, sends lots of photos and videos. Our dog Steve loved her home, her dogs, and her backyard. He came back more confident with other pups and even more obedient!
