How Did Pet Care by Candace Start?

What started as casually pet sitting for family members quickly grew into a full-blown passion. Growing up, I wasn’t able to have pets of my own, but I have fond memories of excitedly greeting the neighborhood dogs. Even at a young age, something about animals ignited so much happiness within me, and I felt a deep, natural connection with them.

Fast forward to my college years: alongside my love for animals, I also had a passion for art. I studied animation and game design, and during that time I began pet sitting—both for family and on Rover—to earn some income and fill the pet-shaped void in my heart. I ended up loving it so much that I decided to pursue it full-time after graduating!

I eventually started my LLC and have been having the time of my life meeting pets and people from all backgrounds and walks of life. I don’t just love and care deeply for the animals I watch—I also truly value building relationships with my clients. I see us as a team working together to provide quality, loving care for the animals who bring so much joy to our lives! 

What Is My Experience? 

I have extensive experience caring for pets with various behavioral needs, including reactive and anxious dogs. I’ve also cared for many pets with medical conditions—such as mobility limitations, deafness, and blindness—and am comfortable handling and administering medications.
