Enrichment and cuddles is key!

Pet care experience

Positive reinforcement and patience is key. Enrichment is essential. Love is...what I got! I’ve always loved animals and taking care of them is my passion. I've spent many years volunteering around the world working with animals – from managing sanctuaries with lions and monkeys, to tiger husbandry. I’ve fostered numerous dogs and cats, worked with reactive dogs and cared for senior dogs. My professional background also includes working as a nanny for high profile clients. Whether it be children or animals I always provide a nurturing and safe environment. I'm a firm believer in positive reinforcement, patience and a whole lot of love as the key to a wonderful bond. Certified in Pet First Aid and Animal Reiki. Trained in pet massage. (I love giving doggy massages!) Short walks, long runs...drop ins, play & cuddle time, whatever it may be, I look forward to meeting you and your furry ones!

Candice was warm, responsive and professional from the get. I felt totally comfortable with leaving my fur-baby with her for a week. She sent me photos of my dog's adventures with her, and it was very clear how well-cared for he was, and that he was relaxed as well as having a blast. I couldn't have been happier with the service Candice provided and would not hesitate to have her watch Tosh again.
