Loving care when you’re not there

Pet care experience

What sets me apart is the genuine love and care I give each dog, I treat them like my own. Your pup Will enjoy 2 daily walks, optional runs around the lake and plenty of cuddles, playtime and personalized attention. I create a safe and happy environment tailored to your dog. Just lost my 15 year old boarder collie and looking to bring some puppy love back into the house.

Courtenay is amazing with our girl. We have a reactive rescue dog and Courtenay is wonderful with her. ❤️💕

My dog immediately took to Courtney and was excited to see her the next visit! So pleased!

Courtenay is a kind and thoughtful person who truly cares about the animals she looks after. From the moment Gary stayed with her, we knew he was in wonderful hands. Even better, Gary didn’t just have Courtenay caring for him — he had her whole family, all of whom shared in providing a positive, loving, and nurturing environment. It gave us such peace of mind knowing he was surrounded by warmth and attention. Courtenay clearly has a genuine love for providing quality care. She prioritizes exercise, engagement, and individual attention, making sure Gary was not only safe but happy and well cared for. It’s obvious that caring for dogs isn’t just a job for her — it’s something she truly enjoys and takes pride in. We couldn’t recommend her more highly!

Courtenay and her family were amazing hosts for our 13 month old golden retriever. Even though it was his first time staying with strangers, they quickly helped him feel like part of the family and showered him with attention. Courtenay’s experience and knowledge helped ensure our fur baby was safe and well cared for. We also appreciated her excellent communication and video updates.
