A best friend for your best friend

Pet care experience

I grew up on the Northside of Jacksonville in a (no longer) rural area known as Black Hammock Island. Since a young age, I have loved and cared for many domestic and exotic animals, and although I love all animals - nothing compares the bond that can be shared between a human, and a canine. Dogs come in all shapes and sizes, and no two are the same! I promise to get to know each and every one of the dogs I interact with. Your dog is your family, and I would love the opportunity to be able to share my love, energy, and compassion for them as if they were my own. I am employed full time doing Web Design and Search Engine Optimization for a company here in Jax, but I am available on weekday afternoons & evenings, as well as weekends. You can rest easy that your pet will have a home away from home, a second mom, and a new best friend when in my care. I love going on nature trails, camping, & other outdoor activities, and nothing beats having a furry friend by your side!

Candace is great with dogs! She used to dogsit for me when I went out of town, and my dog adores her. She always treats him like her own and he comes back happy and healthy.

Candace is very responsible and professional. I feel safe leaving my dog in her care. I would most definitely use her as a dog sitter again.

A typical day

Every dog is different, so of course, our activities will vary based on owner instructions and individual dog information/preference. I enjoy nature walks & beach runs. There are a few dog parks in town that are fun to visit, and I love to camp! (approval for this type of outing would be required) If your dog has a special place they enjoy visiting, I will do my best to accommodate them!
