Pet care experience
Last Minutes Welcome!! A lover of all animals! I have worked as a pet sitter in the past and can’t wait to start again! Even though I want the best for my fur baby, I’m not looking to go broke... that’s why I keep my rates low but my quality pet care high! I understand needing a great pet caretaker but not always having the money to do so. I AM WILLING TO WORK WITH YOU :) Your pets well being is my main concern and if there is something I can do to make it easier, I will! Up until two years ago I have always had dogs, mostly golden retrievers, Australian shepherds, border collies, I have also raised many puppies! I am patient with timid dogs and energetic with energetic dogs. I take into consideration any limitations he/she may have, I can be a cuddle buddy or just a companion for him during my visit! Your fur baby will be treated as my own! I know how hard it is when you are away and need your baby taken care of! Leaving my kitty behind on vacation is the hardest! And knowing he is with someone trustworthy makes all the difference! I am a picture taker and a love giver, with all the love and spoiling he/she could need!! I have been around all types of animals from having small critters like ferrets, to cats (currently have 2 Bengals) to dogs and horses! My husband is an EMT and may come with me if I am taking your dog on trails that could be isolated. I have such a love for animals, and the experience needed to take care of a variety of animals, that I wanted to put that into use! I cannot wait to meet your fur babies!! Now accepting boarding. One dog at a time so he/she gets full attention. We do have two cats, so your dog will need to be cat friendly as they have free roam of the house! We have a small screened in porch and a nice sized fenced yard- we have chickens in the fenced yard so if you are unsure how they will react I can keep on a long leash and there will always be 100 percent supervision! Perfect house for puppies to get socialized with a variety of animals!! We don’t mind dogs on furniture as long as they are allowed to in their own homes, if you prefer them not to we will enforce any rules you may have!
Reviews
Was a great help when the last rover booking canceled at the last minute. I was already on the road and had to find someone quickly to let my dogs out. Was able to pick up the booking a d had no troubles and took excellent care of them.
Best for last minute and booking!
Such a good feeling knowing we’re leaving our dog in the hands of someone who cares so deeply for animals! Courtney is great with communicating, punctual, and so loving to our fur babies!
Courtney was an excellent sitter! Spent lots of time getting to know the pups at the meet and greet, was very responsive and we came home to very happy dogs :) Would definitely recommend!

Communication
Skills
Information Courtney B. would like to know about your pet
Does he get car sick if we go for a ride? Is he fearful of men/women or children? Is he okay around other dogs? (So I know where I can take him and when to be cautious) What are his likes/dislikes? Does he prefer walk/jog/run or backyard playtime for the 30min? What treats are acceptable to give him/her?
A typical day
I can take them around the neighborhood, take them to dog parks or on hikes! Play ball in the backyard! Whatever the dog mommy/daddy feels comfortable with! $15 for 30 min (around neighborhood) $25 for 1 hour (can drive him/her to trails, parks etc. require one hour time slot) Any details and/or instructions about your pet I will follow to the T. Lots of pictures for those who love to see their pet during the day! For my cat parents! I currently own a cat and he is spoiled with love and toys! I have a very active cat so I know how to keep them excercised! I have also leashes trained him! I adore all cats! I have patience for the timid/shy and the knowledge of how to keep the high energy ones active!
