“Thankful I found Courtney to take care of my dogs. I had a previous dog sitter cancel on me last minute and Courtney was able to save the day help me as soon as she could. Very nice, reliable and trustworthy. I will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future.”

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover who’s had dogs my entire life—and I wouldn’t have it any other way. I adopted Remington and Mitra, two wonderful mixed-breed brothers, six years ago. They’re full of love, energy, and just the right amount of drama. Our youngest is Copper, a goofy, lovable bloodhound who’s just turning one and keeping us all on our toes. I’m very comfortable with large breeds and active dogs, and I frequently host visits from the neighborhood pups, too. I also care for a bearded dragon and have experience with reptiles and birds—so no matter the species, I’m here to make sure your pets feel happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’d love to help with quick check in to make sure water bowls are full and little walks or runs in the backyard as needed Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. At home, I use kennels appropriately to ensure structure and safety—especially during mealtimes or when dogs need space to decompress. I closely monitor interactions between pets and always follow your care instructions to make sure your animal feels secure, calm, and well cared for.

About: I grew up with a few of childhood dogs and currently I am the owner of one beloved cat. I've taken care of seniors and babies alike, with different personalities, needs and quirks. I like to learn specifically each detail of their established routine and pay attention to any special instructions for their family so that their beloved pet will be most comfortable. I love animals and look forward to care for them in each and every job. My weekly schedule often fluctuates. I tend to prefer working in pet care towards the afternoon/evenings, but I may be available for a couple of select mornings as well. I also have availability on weekends. I don't mind checking in on them twice a day as well. For dog care I am available to care for them in their own home and check on them twice a day for those who are out of town depending on the service requested. I can also transport them to a dog park or walk in town upon request. For cat care, I am available for both in-home care and also keeping them in my own home, the only requirement being that they are comfortable around other domestic cats as there are four currently in my home. Otherwise I am flexible with specific instructions/routines.
