Candace is a long time dog owner and has years of experience working in accredited zoos and veterinary clinics and kennels.. She always follows proper care guidelines and treats the animals in her care as she would her own.

I have been friends with Candace for over 20 years and I have to say her affinity for animals is one of my favorite things about her. I'm doubtful there's a creature she's met and disliked. She has 3 sweet dogs of her own and so much experience! Candace has years of vet tech and zoo experience so your dogs would be in the safest of hands, you truly couldn't find a better person to leave your best friends with.

Schedule

I work for the film industry and would love to pet sit your pet while I’m in between jobs. Productions have slowed down a lot over the past few years, so I have time currently.
