Dog Sitting Mantoloking

About: Hi! My name is Courtney and I have always been known as the animal girl/lady and have worked in just about every part of the pet care industry with pride. I am a former master groomer as well as canine trainer, have worked with thousands of dogs regardless of breed, age, or background and have never met a dog, cat or creature that did not love me as much as I do them❤️ From trimming nails to snuggling up with your pup at night, if you choose me to care for your animals, they become my own and part of my family❤️ when applicable, I also do incorporate training into regular walks and drop ins to make life a more pleasant experience for both our furry family members and us humans! I am also well versed in other species from big to small and am meticulous in my care of all creatures. As a trainer and handler I have also cared for dogs during show days at venues, prepped dogs for the show ring and taken dogs to canine sporting events as well as lessons. Lastly, I’m always quick to snap a great photo of a pup, cat or our other family members looking their best, and always love a good impromptu photoshoot to send you! Overall, I am here to support you and your animals to have and be the best you can be as a team, and look great doing it! I currently have full availability to bring any animals into the Courtney’s Cuddles and Care Family❤️ I work from home making dog apparel and service dog gear, so always open for communication and a drop in! I am always happy to go over each individual pets needs and routines and follow them meticulously, as well as incorporate training and/or grooming as needed! Every animal I have the pleasure of caring for becomes a part of my family and is treated like my own. My service dog, Tsunami, is also an extremely well trained, very neutral dog that I am happy to introduce to others that need friends! She is a rough collie, or as many people recognize, a lassie dog!

About: Hello! Thank you for checking out my profile! Since I was a child, I’ve taken care of dogs of every kinds, cats, turtles, fish, rabbits, hamsters, and chickens. I’m open to taking care of a snake but I might need a minute to get comfortable! I grew up with a sweet, special needs bichon frise and cocker spaniel. In 2016, I started house sitting and walking dogs for clients, neighbors, friends, and family. I have experience with all dogs- young, old, and special needs. I have given medication to cats and dogs for medical conditions and separation anxiety, in addition to providing extra love and care. I love animals and would be glad to help you have a wonderful vacation knowing your pets are well cared for! If you have any questions, feel free to be in touch. I’m available for dog walks, pet drop-ins, and housesitting in the pet parent’s home on weekdays and weekends. I taught special education for the last ten years but will not be returning this year, so my availability has opened up. A little more about my background: I earned a Bachelor of Science in Community Health Education with a concentration in Health Promotion and Culture and a Master of Education in Special Education. Before changing careers to teaching, I worked with veterans and at a free health clinic as the Community Health Education Coordinator. I can provide house sitting in your home and take care of your pet’s individual needs. At this time, I cannot board pets in mine. Unfortunately, my landlord won’t allow pets.

“Micaela was FANTASTIC!! Not only did she always reply quickly, she was very accommodating. She sent us multiple photos everyday and made a great connection with our cat. Would recommend her to anyone!”

“Melissa is a wonderful pet sitter! She did drops ins for my two cats. She washed dirty bowls that my cats used after eating. I thought that was so thoughtful of her to do this. She also took pictures of my pets , the pet food she fed them, as well as the cat pen area that she cleaned, everyday. In addition, she came over the day it was supposed to snow, on very short notice, for additional drop in visits. I asked her if she could do drops ins the day before, for this day. And even though it was short notice for this additional booking, she agreed to do the drop ins. I was relieved to not have to travel back home, an hour away, in inclement weather, the next day. I am so grateful for her hard work and for excepting my last minute booking, without much prior notice. Melissa is a reliable , flexible and kind pet sitter! I highly recommend her!”

“Great experience. Our dogs are not the easiest to handle and max did an amazing job. This was one of the longest trips we have been on away from our pups, and they were in great hands. Would book again!”

About: I was raised alongside litters of puppies and my life has revolved around animals ever since. My family consistently had 8-10 dogs in our home, ranging from big dogs like labs or American bulldogs to smaller dogs like French bulldogs or terrier mixes. Since I was in elementary school, I was tasked with feeding, grooming, walking and playing with all of our dogs. As an adult, I've helped my parents out in watching their many dogs (my dad has 12!) when they are out of town and pet-sitting for friends and family. I adopted my own two cats, who I've had since they were kittens, and love them with almost my whole heart - I have two ferrets that take up some space in my heart too. Ferrets are notoriously difficult pets to take care of, so if I can handle them and all their energy & mischief, I think I'm prepared to take care of just about any creature. I have been conscientious, responsible and caring for my own pets and I promise I'll treat yours the same way :) I work 9-5 on a hybrid schedule but, as a manager, I have flexibility in terms of remote work — I can always change my schedule around to accommodate yours! I need advanced notice for overnight bookings, as I commute into the city twice a week. I can always switch my-in office days with enough of a head's up, so please reach out if my current calendar availability doesn't align with yours! We may be able to work something out. Unfortunately, I know the feeling of coming home from a trip and realizing that some little things were unattended to by a friend I'd trusted with my pets: the water fountain was half full, the litter box hadn't been scooped in a few days, their 24/7 bird streaming YouTube video wasn't on (lol). Of course my pets were still fed, but it didn't feel like they were cared for the same way I would have. I promise that won't happen if I am entrusted with your pet. I am very good at noticing and handling those little details, even if you forgot to mention them, because that's what I would want. That said, I am great at following pet-care instructions, and I'll surely feed, walk, play with (and love) your furry friend according to the schedule you set out.

About: I absolutely love animals especially dogs and cats. I have taken care of multiple dogs at and had to visit the home multiple times a day. I also have had dogs in my life since the day I was born and I am familiar with all different breeds. I will make sure to take the best care of your pet and make sure he/she is taken care of wonderfully and with love. The biggest dog I have taken care of was a golden retriever. And the smallest dog I have taken care of was less than 20 pounds. I have been surrounded my dogs my whole life and I know I will enjoy this job so much. I also love kitties and have been taking care of them for 3 years! I have a cat of my own who I adore. I cannot wait to take care of all the amazing animals.

“Skye took excellent care of my cat, Betty! He is very kind, attentive and responsible. I loved seeing the photos he sent me of Betty happily sitting on his lap. That’s how you know! :) Would definitely book again!”

“Monica provided excelent care for my babies. She found a rapport with the dogs, so despite our absence, they remained playfull and calm, they ate, and did not destroy anything in the house. Usually, they are real monsters when we leave for more than few hours.”

“Margret always provides the utmost care and love to my dog Sandi. She’s a great sitter and has a wonderful personality. My dog loves her so ❤️”

About: I have over 6 years of hands-on experience caring for a 60 lb Labrador Retriever, whom I raised from puppyhood. During that time, I learned how to understand dog behavior, body language, exercise needs, and daily routines at every stage of life. I also have experience caring for cats and understand that every pet has its own unique personality. I take the time to build trust, whether a pet is playful, shy, or needs extra patience.

I make sure pets have a safe, comfortable, and calm environment where they can relax and feel at home. I follow each pet’s regular routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions provided by the owner. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain the pet’s normal routine to help reduce stress.

About: I have had pets since I was born, my first being a cat. Unfortunately, she died when I was young but was my best friend during the time we knew each other. I have had dogs for most of my life, mostly smaller breeds like shih-tzus. However, I frequently visited my family, who had bigger dogs. I also visited adoption centers that had larger breeds to get a feel for them. Currently, I do have a foster cat who is very nervous and scared, so I understand how to read cat behaviors. I also have lots of experience with aquatic pets, including Bettas, Tetras, and my current pets, African Dwarf Frogs. I am currently only living on acting, so most of the time I have an open schedule. I love going out on a walk in the morning but enjoy afternoon and evening walks as well. I ensure that the animal is comfortable with any situation I might be in with them. I always maintain a calm demeanor in case of any upsets and put the animal's needs before my own.

About: Hi, I’m Myranda! I have had a very healthy dog of my own for 14 years now. He is truly the best dog I could’ve asked for! I have also been a pet sitter (including dogs, cats, fish, guinea pigs and even turtles) for 5 years. I have cared for pets while their parents were away on trips countless times with several clients that use my services regularly. I have a very calming presence with animals. They tend to warm up to me pretty quickly so usually does not take long for us to get comfortable with each other. I am extremely patient with any issues that arise. I treat every pet with the utmost attention and care. This includes pets that may try to run away/escape from their homes, pets that attempt to eat items they should not, pets who have high anxiety levels, and much more. I am genuinely a lover of all animals and I have a very big heart so you can rest assured that I will love and care for your babies as if they were my own! I also have experience with administering medications, preparing special diet regimens, as well as caring for animals that are sick, taking them on vet visits, and caring for them after intensive surgeries. I am happy to give them a little extra love and company if need be! Whatever their needs are, I am capable and well ready to take them on. I’m a cat lover too! I have much experience taking care of litter boxes, playing and entertaining cats, and keeping them out of any trouble. I can water plants as well. Truly anything that you might need, feel free to let me know! I am currently only focused on pet sitting exclusively so my schedule is extremely open. The only hang ups are based on whether I have already booked to sit for someone else. I am an early riser so early morning care is not an issue for me. Late night dog walking is not an issue either. I am able to take dogs on frequent walks and scoop kitty litter several times a day. I can feed pets frequently as well. I am great at getting cats to eat wet food! I can mix different ingredients together or prepare food in any particular manner even if that means I need to cook it. I can administer doses of medication. I am great at remembering what needs to be taken when. I can care for animals that are extremely anxious or pets that are injured as well. I am also able to clean up after them if needed. I can play with them anytime. I am happy to cuddle or pet if they need any attention. Of course, change water for them everyday. I can take care of basic everyday grooming as well as special care and grooming needs for hairless pets. I am also very good with plants and happy to look after those as well.
