Safety, trust & environment

We have a fenced yard with 3 dogs. We have a dog kennel in the back and we also have inside kennels as well. When it’s cold we keep them inside because they are our little princesses. They do get along with other dogs and your dog will come home tired and happy. If your dog is a free roam dog around the house we welcome that too 😁.. ** The boxer is my dog and the other 2 dogs are my BFs dogs , it may sounds a little confusing. just wanted to be more clear on it.**

Information Candice W. would like to know about your pet

Just let me know what your pet needs. I will be open and honest on what I can and can’t do :). If your like me , my dog is the love of my life. Okay well my kids are too but they are all grown up now.

A typical day

Of course we get loves and pets in the morning. I throw the ball and talk in silly voices then I head to work. If it’s near my work I will run to the house and give snacks, love time and play time and head back to work . After work depends on your dogs personality. Would love a quick hike or snuggles on the couch works for me ❤️ I also love to send daily pictures of your animals ( I write a little story as if they were a camp while your gone )

As always, Candice was reliable, did a good job, and sent us photo updates. We will continue to call on her every time we need a sitter.
