Hi I'm Candi, Auntie of all animals

I love all animals, and since I can't own them all, I'd love to borrow yours. Whether it's for an overnight stay at our farm, a drop-in kitty visit, or just a walk at a dog park or in your neighborhood, I am your girl.

Candice is a beyond excellent sitter. As always, our dog was spoiled and loved the whole time we were gone and we felt 100% confident in leaving her with Candice and her family. I think she enjoyed our vacation even more than we did!

Candice covered for our usual pet sitter for a last minute booking and we are so grateful she did. Our 3 cats were immediately comfortable with her and she was even able to administer insulin to our skittish diabetic cat by the first visit. Thank you, Candice!

Candice is always reliable and great to work with. I continue to use her for my dogs house visits on my long work days when I can’t get home to let them out.

Schedule

After 22 years of nursing I decided I needed a better work-life balance. I wanted to devote more time to my family, pets and garden. Turns out I love caring for animals just as much, if not more, than humans! I am available during weekdays and weekends for dog walks or drop-ins. I'm also available most days for full boarding. I also know my way around plants, so happy to care for them while you're away as well. Will take out garbage cans, bring in mail, etc. I can administer oral and injectable medications to cats and dogs.

Safety, trust & environment

My husband, two sons (ages 20 and 15), and I live on 1/3 of an acre in the Juanita area of Kirkland with a fully fenced yard. We have a dog-savvy cat, two Goldendoodles (ages 5 and 2), rabbits, and chickens. All are happy to have guests in their home. My husband works from home, so there is always someone here.

I live right up the street from Edith Moulton off-leash dog park. There is plenty of room to play and fetch in my large fully fenced back yard as well.
