Safety, trust & environment

I prioritize safety, comfort, and a calm environment for every pet. While in your home, I supervise pets at all times, follow routines and instructions carefully, and provide plenty of exercise, attention, and mental stimulation. I respect your home, maintain a clean and secure space, and communicate regularly with updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is happy, safe, and loved.

Information Cortny W. would like to know about your pet

To give your pet the best care, I love learning about their unique personality ahead of time. Knowing their routines, favorite toys or activities, medications, and any special needs or safety concerns—like reactivity to other dogs, kids, or bikers—helps me tailor walks, playtime, and attention just for them. The more I know, the happier, safer, and more comfortable your pet will be while in my care.

A typical day

A typical day with me starts with plenty of attention and affection, followed by walks or playtime to burn off energy and keep dogs healthy and happy. I love interactive play with toys, gentle training or reinforcement of commands, and lots of cuddles and praise. Depending on the dog’s personality and needs, I include activities like fetch, tug, puzzle toys, or simply relaxing together. My goal is always to make sure pets are safe, stimulated, and feel loved while maintaining a consistent routine.

Pet care experience

I’m a responsible, dependable, and genuinely dog-loving caretaker with a lifelong connection to dogs of all personalities and energy levels. I’ve been caring for family and friends’ dogs for as long as I can remember, including daily care, walks, basic training reinforcement, and behavior support. I have a natural affinity for dogs—especially those that are shy, anxious, high-energy, or misunderstood. I’m patient, observant, and calm, which helps dogs feel safe and understood quickly. Whether I’m working with a nervous pup, a strong puller, or a laid-back couch companion, I meet each dog where they are. I’ve helped reinforce basic training such as leash manners, sit, stay, recall, and calm behavior during walks. I’m currently working toward becoming a professional dog trainer, and I stay mindful of canine body language, energy levels, and positive reinforcement techniques. One of the most important things for a happy, well-balanced dog is appropriate physical and mental exercise. I take that seriously. I’m reliable, attentive, and committed to making sure dogs get the movement, stimulation, affection, and structure they need to thrive. When your dog is with me, they’ll be treated like family—loved, respected, and cared for as if they were my own.

Five stars! I cannot recommend Cortny enough. I had to book her last minute, and she was incredibly accommodating and reliable. She took amazing care of my Labrador Evie, she took her on daily walks and played with her a lot. She also worked on her training cause my dog can be a bit wild. On top of that, she left my house completely spotless and clean, honestly she cleaned my house better than we clean it. We had her watch her for a whole week and it was everything we needed for a stress free vacation. If you are looking for a trustworthy, caring, and professional dog sitter, look no further! If I could leave more than 5 stars I would.

Cortny did great! My dog ended up getting sick before I left town and Cortny still took care of her and gave her all of her medicine. Cortny kept me updated and she left my place better than I left it.

Cortny is fabulous and we couldnt recommend her enough. She took care of our dog for two weeks and never once did I worry. She made sure to send us daily updates with pictures and videos. She took our dog on daily walks and made sure he was loved on while we were gone. If your in need of a reliable professional dog sitter I highly recommend Cortny.

Cortny has watched my fur babies for years. She not only loves fur babies but fur babies love her. She is a very caring and thoughtful young lady! Her knowledge of animals is impressive! I have learned more about taking great care my fur babies from her. I would highly recommend her with your fur babies!
