Pet care experience

PRIVATE, PERSONALIZED PET CARE

I provide personalized, attentive care for dogs, with both private boarding in my home and house sitting in yours. For boarding, your dog stays as my only guest in my quiet private home-an alternative to kennels, commercial facilities, and high volume boarding. For house sitting, I care for your dog in the comfort and familiarity of your own home while respecting your routines, property, and privacy. I maintain established feeding, walking, sleeping, and medication schedules and provide regular communication while you are away while being considerate of your time. I have a lifetime of hands-on experience caring for animals and bring a calm, dependable approach to every stay. My focus is simple: individualized attention, consistency, safety, and the reassurance of knowing your dog-and your home- are being cared for thoughtfully.

Candace was very attentive to the specific needs of my dog. Her place was perfect for his needs. Sheis a very warm and loving person. My dog saw her as a member of the family.

Absolutely the best. I have a difficult dog, and Candace was extremely confident and loving with her. I have full peace of mind when she's watching my dog. Thank you Candace!

Safety, trust & environment

ENVIRONMENT Because your dog is my only boarding guest, I can pay close attention to the small things - its normal routines, appetite, energy, behavior, sleeping preferences and the signals that tell me whether it is completely comfortable and settled. Feeding, walking, medication and other established routines are followed carefully and consistently.
