Pet care experience

Animals are my true passion♡

I grew up raising/with English Mastiffs and had my own Cat, that I alone took care of, from age 6-18 as a teenager. I worked at my local shelter every Wednesday and Sunday for 8 years. I was trained to work with elderly dogs/cats, and special needs animals. I know how to give CPR to cats and dogs. I started to learn how to train animals and have just recently signed up to start taking courses through Rover to get certifications in training. I know how to administer medication, orally and by injection. I am a massive animal lover. I promise to take care of your animal and keep them safe as if it were my own children. I have 2 kids, ages 6 and 11. Both of whom are as much as an animal lover as I am. Your pet will be cuddled, played with, and taken on as many walks as you would like me to, or as much as they need, when they need too. I have a huge yard with a gated high 6feet high fence. I would love the opportunity to take care of them while you are unable to. I promise that your pet will be loved, and completely safe with me, for as long as you need. I promise your babies will have a loving home while they are with myself and my family. They will be taken care of with so much love and so much play. As long as your pet is in my home they will be in a loving, caring, secure home. My home is their home when you are away. ♡ They will have their very own vacation while staying with myself and my family!

Doggy Day Care • Aug 09, 2026

Chewie absolutely had a blast at Candra's home and was totally pampered! Every member of the family was actively involved in taking care of him and made him feel so loved and comfortable. Their kids are absolutely adorable and were incredibly sweet and gentle with Chewie. It was wonderful knowing he was in such caring hands. We would happily leave Chewie with them again!

Boarding • Aug 07, 2026

​I cannot recommend Candra and her family highly enough! She was an absolute lifesaver and was able to accommodate Titus at the very last minute. Before he even arrived, she asked for his care sheet, which immediately showed me her genuine and deep level of care. ​Titus had an incredible time staying with her, her husband, and their two kids. The environment was perfect for him—he got so much playtime running around in their yard and plenty of sweet cuddles with them on the couch afterward. ​Throughout his stay, Candra kept me thoroughly updated with tons of pictures, videos, and regular reports on exactly how much he was eating. It gave me complete peace of mind knowing he was happy and so well cared for. Everything about the experience was amazing, and it is clear she genuinely loves animals. We will absolutely be booking with Candra again!

Candra and her family are truly the best!! From the moment we dropped off our fur baby, we felt completely at ease. They treated him like part of their own family and gave him so much love, attention, and care. He’s a sassy German shepherd at times and they put up (and loved) all his drama! We got regular updates, videos, and photos, and could clearly see how happy and comfortable he was the entire time. They made our trip 100 times more enjoyable knowing our boy was having his own little vacation the entire time too! You can see Candra’s whole family’s genuine love for dogs through and through! 100% would recommend and will be booking again in the future!

Fun times for these 2. This was Sunny's first time away from his family. We could not have asked for a better family home for him to be at. Candra exercised them, loved them and even slept with them during Fireworks. We will certainly be returning. Thank you Candra and family❤️

Doggy Day Care • Jul 08, 2026

Candra is a truly great sitter! She was prompt in responding to my last minute request and sent consistent communication and pictures while she had my little guy Brody for the day. He’s still a puppy and a little anxious - she was patient with him and understanding he’s still potty training. Her kids are very sweet and great with dogs. She’s also working on becoming a trainer!

Schedule

I'm currently a stay at home mom. I'm at home all day. If I need to leave the house, you pet will not be alone longer then 30minutes to an hour at the most. My kids are on Summer break and home almost everyday. If your pet is not good with children, then I'm more then happy come to your home and do daily check ins and or walking. If your pet is good around children then your pet can stay with me at my home for as long as you need! They will be spoiled with so much love, as my children adore animals as much as I do. I'm here 24.7 all days of the week to help take care of your needs and your babies needs. Most of the time I am good and able to take requests on very short notice. I'm very flexible and able to work on different times and needs. Just let me know what you need from me and when you need it and I'll do everything in my power to make it work!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a fully high fenced yard. A huge backyard and a big front yard. Fully fenced all around my house including my front yard that has a gate that I can open and shut. If your pet wants to explore my frontyard, I am more then happy to shut the gate and let them smell all the smells. If I have an errand to run and your pet has to be alone, I will never leave them alone longer then an hour at most but my families normal routine when we have a pet staying with us, is that either my husband or myself will stay home with them while one of us goes and runs our errands. I will ALWAYS be outside with them when they go out to play or go potty so I can always keep an eye on them and make sure they stay safe and secure. If they want to relax outside and enjoy the sun, I am more then happy to stay outside with them. If they want to play, my kids and myself can be out there for hours when the weather is cool enough to play. Downstairs I also have a long hallway that we play fetch down when it is super hot outside. So no matter the weather, we are always playing and having so much fun and exercise with the pets in my care. I have no pets of my own currently. I have 2 children, aged 6 and 11. My children are very gentle, kind and caring. They love animals of all kinds. They are both animal lovers. I am a stay at home mom. Rover is my only job and the job I love the most. I am looking forward to walking, playing, cuddling, and giving all the attention I possibly can to your pet. I love doing boarding and doggy day care! I would also love a chance to come to your home and taking your dog outside to go potty and/or for a walk, while also giving lots of cuddles and play. If your pet comes to my home, know that they will be safe and unbelievably loved. Your animals are free to lay on my furniture if you allow it. I will do my best to make sure your dog keeps the same routine as they have at home. I'm all for cuddles, games and love. Whatever your pet needs, I promise to give it my full attention and go above and beyond! If your pet loves children, then I can guarantee they will be unbelievably spoiled. I worked with elderly animals and special needs animals when I worked at the shelter in Arizona. I hand raised puppies from the day they were born until they were able to eat on their own. I know dog/cat CPR and I am in the process of getting my certification for training through Rover courses. I look forward to this next step, and getting to love your pet just as much as you love them. I have had animals all my life. From age 4 to age 29. I'm currently now 31. I have hardwood floors, so if they have an accident, its not an issue. I live in a 2 story house with 5 stairs going downstairs and 5 stairs going upstairs from my front door. Your pet is free to roam the house. I can not wait to love your pet and give them all they need and more!

A typical day

I will stimulate your animal with lots of cuddles, games, long walks, and of course lots of massages and pets. I promise to go above and beyond in giving your pet what they need and deserve. I will give you daily updates and lots of photos through out the day. If you would prefer to only recieve a few photos, please let me know. If your pet is involved with training, just tell me what they are working on and I can do my best to keep that same protocol and practice. I will go above and beyond to make sure your pet is safe and extremely loved! I promise to give your pet a nurturing, loving, safe home as long as they are with me.

I am only accepting two pets for boarding and one doggy daycare at this time. I want to make sure I can give my full attention and love to your pets! ‼️It would be very helpful if you could make a care sheet for your pet with instructions on their daily routine, the commands they know, how much food to give per day and amount, what their favorite things to do are, and what their favorite toy/games are. Any behavioiral tendencies they have that I should keep an eye out for. If they are on medications, put the name of the medications, how to give it and the what times they are needed. Please leave me your vet information incase of an emergency and if you have an emergency contact person, make sure to put them on the care sheet! The more details about your pet on the care sheet, the better! Please let me know if your dog has special needs ahead of time. If your dog is taking any medications, please let me know within the first few messages‼️ Let me know everything I need to do to make your pet comfortable, happy, and safe. If you have any special instructions, notify me ahead of time and put it on the care sheet so I can make sure I give your pet exactly what they need and more. If you are unable to bring any of your pets needs (bed, toys, food, bowls) please let me know before the stay so I can clarify that I have everything that they need already or if you need me to go get them. I have a couple bowls for food and water and a lot of toys. I also have a dog bed of my own that I bought. It was the largest size I could find so that any dog in my care can fit and be comfortable on. I will always want to do a meet and greet with myself, husband and kids before having your pet stay with us. I will be the caregiver but my family will be home so they will be playing and cuddling your pet as well. If you are not located near me, I am more then happy to meet somewhere closer to you! I look forward to meeting you and your pet and for you to get to know myself, my husband, and my kids. Have a beautiful day! ♡
