Your Furbabie's Home Away From Home

Pet care experience

Hello my name is Candida (Candi). I have worked in and with Rescues and Humane Societies throughout the State of WI over the last 30 years. I currently have 4 dogs and live out in the country with lots of room to run. I am very familiar with different behavior issues as well as how to work with your pets to get through those issues. This experience comes from fostering many high risk animals over the years. Your pet will be treated the same in my home as he/ she is treated in your home. If they go on your furniture, they are welcome on mine, etc. I am always willing to go the extra mile, if your pet needs a bath or a nail clip, I am happy to do that. I have experience with training, CPR, Giving Meds both by mouth and shot. Some of my friends lovingly call me the crazy dog lady because of my deep love for dogs, they have feelings and emotions just as we do and I always take that into consideration when caring for them. Given the opportunity I will show you that you can trust me to care for your baby while you are away just as you care for them when you are home.

We couldn’t be happier with Candida and the love and attention that she give our pets when we go on vacation. It gives us such peace of mind and allows us to enjoy our time away without being worried about them. I wholeheartedly recommend Candi to any pet parent seeking top-notch care for their furry family members!

My girls are my world. Candy makes me at ease knowing my girls are well taken care of and happy. Plenty of room to run and the attention she pays to them while I’m gone is amazing. She keeps me updated on how they are doing and what their day is like. Most of the time my dogs don’t want to leave they enjoy spending time with her family and dogs. If you need someone to care for your dogs highly recommend booking her. She even keeps the schedule you have at home at hers while they are there.

Candi is nothing short of incredible when it comes to taking care of dogs! I had the pleasure of leaving my 6-month-old Pomsky, Tutu, in her capable hands for nearly a month, and the experience was fantastic. Her sprawling 40-acre property became a paradise for Tutu, allowing him to live his best life, running around and exploring every day. What made me even happier was the fact that he was able to gain some much-needed weight under Candi's care, as he was previously underweight. Candi's four fur babies welcomed Tutu into their pack, and he got along with everyone, especially Scout. The assurance of her competence came from the very beginning, with her oldest fur lady, Juneau, being a staggering 18 years old! What sets Candi apart is her reliability. She provided daily updates, including interesting moments, photos, and videos, ensuring that I could see Tutu every day. Her dedication and love for what she does shine through in every interaction. I can wholeheartedly say that Candi will be my go-to choice if I ever need to board Tutu again. Her commitment, love, and understanding of dogs is simply unparalleled, and I wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone looking for exceptional care for their furry family member. Thank you, Candi, for making Tutu feel right at home!

I have four dogs that are the sweetest babies. They get along great with all animals as well as kids. I do not have a fenced yard as we live on 80 acres out in the country, but I do have a portable temporary fencing that can be put up for outside time. We have a large area in the lower level of our home for inside play time. As I said earlier, when your pet is in my home, they will be treated just as they are when they are with you. I know how important routine is to their little minds. If you feed at a certain time, I will follow that routine. I know mine have a very set routine, they surely know when dinner time is. :o)

Information Candida L. would like to know about your pet

I like to know your pets struggles...are they pet friendly, kid friendly, do they prefer to have their space, do they have separation anxiety. All of the little quirks are the things id like to know.

A typical day

We live very close to the state trails which allow dogs, we walk our there daily. They love the interaction with nature as there is water and bridges etc along the trails. Lots of new smells. We also have kiddie pools for summer that our dogs absolutely love. We have air conditioning on all of the warm summer days so the pets with breathing issues or medical issues are always comfortable.
