Hubby & Wife Duo of dog lovers!

Pet care experience

Hey hey!! We’re Dannette and Candido, a husband-and-wife pet-sitting duo passionate about dogs and dedicated to providing exceptional care for your furry friend. Our love for animals runs deep—we’ve been actively involved in rescuing and rehoming foster dogs through local animal rescue efforts in West Palm Beach. Our family includes Bella, a sweet and friendly dog we adopted before our first fur baby Brewzer passed away. Bella has lived in homes with children and dogs her size and gets along wonderfully with other dogs, making her a great companion for your pup during their stay. Brewzer taught us invaluable lessons about caring for elderly dogs, including administering injectable medications and providing the patience and compassion they need in their golden years. Through his memory, we continue to honor our love for all dogs, regardless of age or breed. We welcome dogs of all shapes, sizes, and breeds, including those often misunderstood, like pit bulls. We’re passionate about providing care for all dogs and treating them with the same love and devotion we give to our own pets. In our home, we can comfortably accommodate dogs up to large breeds. For extra-large breeds, we provide in-home visits and walks to ensure they receive the personalized care and attention they need. Candido grew up with dogs and has extensive experience in high-quality pet care. As for me, I started pet-sitting in middle school, looking after a black lab named G, and continued pet care and volunteering at shelters through high school and beyond. It’s a joy to combine my lifelong love for animals with our current life together as a married couple. Our experience as pet owners and sitters taught us how challenging it can be to find a reliable, caring pet-sitter who can provide personalized, in-home attention. That’s where we come in! I’m a teacher and home in the afternoons, while Candido works from home as a web developer, ensuring that your dog will always have the companionship of either one of us and Bella. We prioritize your dog’s needs above all else, treating them as part of our family. We spend most weekends at home or dog-friendly places, often taking Bella along—and we’d love to bring your pup too! For those moments we can’t include the dogs, you can rest assured they’ll never be left alone for long periods (or at all depending on your preference). Our commitment to being patient, loving, and attentive sets us apart as professional pet-sitters who genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. We also believe in open communication and will keep you updated with creative photos and videos of your pup’s activities. Let us provide peace of mind and a caring environment for your furry family member while you’re away!

Safety, trust & environment

We offer personalized care for pets in both our home and our clients’ homes, ensuring their comfort and well-being no matter the environment. Care in Our Home: When pets stay with us, they become part of our family. We provide a safe, welcoming space where they can relax and feel at ease. Dogs have access to comfortable indoor areas and plenty of space to walk around our neighborhood. We maintain a consistent schedule for feeding, walks, and play, tailored to their specific needs and preferences. For social pets, our dog Bella is a friendly companion who loves the company of other dogs. We also offer enrichment activities like interactive toys to keep them mentally stimulated. We can accommodate dogs up to large breeds in our home, providing them with ample space to move around and feel at home. We ensure the dogs are never left alone for long periods, as one of us is always present to supervise, provide care, and shower them with affection. Care in Our Client’s Home: For pets who feel more comfortable in their familiar surroundings, we offer in-home visits and walks for either 30 minutes or 1 hour. During these visits, we adhere to your pet’s established routine, including feeding, medication administration (including injectables, if needed), and any special care instructions. We take the time to provide companionship, play, and walks tailored to your dog’s energy level and preferences. This service is particularly ideal for extra-large breeds or pets who prefer a quieter environment. We also pay close attention to home security, ensuring your space is respected and secure during our visits. Whether at our home or yours, we treat every pet as if they’re our own, prioritizing their happiness, health, and safety. Communication is key—we keep pet parents updated with real-time photos, videos, and updates to provide peace of mind while they’re away.

Information Dannette & Candido M. would like to know about your pet

All dogs need to be up to date on vaccines as well as heartworm and flea/tick preventative if they are to be staying in our home. I would love to know: - Your dog's daily schedule (i.e. feeding, walking, bedtime) - Your dog's temperament with other dogs - Your dog's medicines and instructions for care - Your dog's favorite places (we can try to include those on weekend outings while they are with us)

A typical day

Our time with your pup will be a balanced mix of walking and outdoor exercise combined with cozy indoor snuggles and relaxation in our dog-friendly home. To help new dogs feel welcome, we like to offer a special “welcome treat” (with your permission). We find that this small gesture helps dogs settle in more quickly and feel at ease in their new environment. We take the time to get to know your dog, observe their behavior, and tailor our care to their individual needs. For energetic pups, we’ll plan extra activities like visits to the dog park, long walks around the neighborhood, or even trips to hiking trails if you’re comfortable with that. For older or more laid-back dogs, we focus on creating a calm and restful environment with gentle strolls and plenty of cuddles. Our home is designed with dogs in mind—pet-friendly spaces where they can roam freely unless otherwise specified. Our neighborhood is equally welcoming, with a scenic loop around the complex, grassy areas to explore, and a dog park just minutes away. Whether your pup is up for an adventure or prefers quiet companionship, we’ll make sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for during their time with us.

Pet care is seamlessly integrated into our daily and weekly routines. As a teacher, I finish work in the early afternoon, and my husband works from home as a web developer, so there’s always someone at home to care for our pets and any dogs in our care. In the mornings, we always start the day with a walk, ensuring the dogs get exercise and mental stimulation. Throughout the day, we take breaks to check on the pups, provide belly rubs, snacks, and keep them engaged with toys or cuddles. Evenings are dedicated to longer walks, quality playtime, or relaxed cuddles. Weekends are intentionally kept flexible to prioritize time with the dogs. We often visit dog-friendly parks, trails, or outdoor spaces where the dogs can safely explore, socialize, and enjoy the fresh air. If a pup isn’t comfortable in those settings, we focus on in-home activities tailored to their needs. We also maintain a consistent feeding and medication schedule, making sure every dog in our care feels secure and well-cared-for. Open communication with pet owners is part of our routine as well, sending updates, photos, and videos to keep them connected with their furry family member while they’re away. For us, pet care isn’t just something we fit into our lives—it’s a central part of who we are, and we wouldn’t have it any other way.
