Pets are people too

Pet care experience

Hello! My name is Candice and I have been in love with caring for animals my entire life. I love the outdoors and nature and even won an animal lover award at camp for breaking code to care for a lost animal. I have fostered for shelters back home in California and have pet sit multiple times for family and friends a like. I’m also a huge animal advocate and believe that we need to be their voice. If you choose me I can promise you that your baby will be well loved and taken care of. I even send updated videos and photos through their stay so you know how they are doing each step of the way! *I can also care for birds, rabbits, chinchillas and other small pets like guinea pigs, hamsters, mice, rats, fish and some reptiles including snakes. I love all creatures big and small.

Candice was fantastic, for such a last minute request, She came through and took our furbaby for the day. Love the updates through out the day with pictures, in which Kenai was def smiling in each. Candice is stop notch if you are looking for someone to not only provide doggie daycare but also continue any training you have been working on. I would def keep Candice in my favorites! Don't hesitate!! ???

Keeps you updated always and loves your pets as her own. Affordable and just overall the best. I wouldn’t choose any one else to care for my pets

Candice is a true animal lover, and it shows through the care and interactions I’ve seen and experienced with her. She is very attentive and loving to any animal she comes in contact with. You can tell she has a loving heart towards animals of all kinds. When she babysat our dog, cockatiel, and 2 backyard chickens when we went away on a 10 day vacation, I had no doubt that they would be in good hands and taken care of. She did a great job, and all the pets were happy and loved. You can trust me when I say, your pet/pets will be taken care of and loved on if she is watching them.
