Pet care experience

Trustworthy dog lover

Hi, I’m Courtnae! I’ve been around dogs my entire life—my dad was a breeder before I was born, and I grew up helping him care for and later rescue dogs. That early experience taught me how to confidently handle a wide variety of breeds, personalities, and situations. I’ve also lived with both dogs and cats my whole life, and I currently share my home with my Border Collie, Fly (a cardiac alert service dog I personally trained), and three cats—who are exceptionally friendly and well-socialized with dogs of all sizes. I’ve been professionally dog sitting for nearly 10 years, primarily in Tucson, AZ. I’ve cared for pets belonging to residents of a prestigious country club and their close associates, gaining extensive experience with dogs of all sizes—including larger breeds like Rottweilers and Great Pyrenees. My fiancé and I now work as a team to provide reliable, high-quality care. We both offer basic training support and work together to ensure each pet receives calm, attentive, and loving supervision at all times. We are committed to creating a safe and structured environment tailored to each dog’s personality and needs. Whether your pup needs structured routines, active playtime, or just lots of affection—we’ve got it covered together. For added convenience, we also offer light grooming services upon request (baths, brushing, nail trims, and more). We’re also lucky to be within walking distance of four spacious parks and Dutchman Dog Park—perfect for pups who love to stretch their legs and enjoy outdoor adventures. Once a booking request is submitted, either my fiancé or I will reach out to schedule a meet and greet. We typically arrange these introductions at a neutral location, such as a nearby park, to safely and calmly introduce our pets. Meeting on neutral ground helps minimize territorial behavior, encourages more natural interaction, and reduces stress for everyone involved. During this time, we’ll also take the opportunity to thoroughly review your pet’s needs, routines, preferences, and any important behavioral or medical notes. Our goal is to be as detailed as possible so we can mirror your pet’s home structure, reduce anxiety, and provide a seamless and comfortable transition into our care. These steps help us establish trust with both you and your pup—because your peace of mind and their safety are our top priorities. For new clients: Looking for a pet sitter?

Safety, trust & environment

We live in a home with a fully walled-in yard—perfect for outdoor play and potty breaks. Our home is equipped with a security door and a Ring security system, so I can monitor the dogs in real-time whether they’re playing, resting, or exploring the home. You can feel confident knowing your pet is safe, supervised, and treated like family.

I would absolutely recommend and would have Sienna stay with them again! Super easy communication, lots of updates, and they took great care of her and got creative to let her get energy out with it being hot out. They had her washed and brushed ready for pickup and she was a happy pup, thanks again!

Highly recommend! Our pups love staying with Courtnae and we never have to worry about them while we’re away. She’s great in sending pictures, videos and updates.

Absolutely FIVE STARS! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Courtnae took wonderful care of our two little pups for two weeks, and we couldn't be happier with the experience. From the start, her communication was excellent—she kept us updated throughout their stay with frequent messages, adorable photos, and fun videos, which really put our minds at ease. When we picked them up, our dogs were happy, healthy, and clearly well-loved! It's obvious Courtnae treats her guests like family. We are so grateful for the peace of mind she gave us, and we would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, responsible, and attentive sitter. We will definitely be booking with Courtnae again in the future! Thank you so much for everything!

Courtnae and Matthew take great care of my dogs! They take them for walks, send pictures, and give me updates about their health and anything that doesn’t seem right. My dogs are happy when i pick them up and they are happy to see Courtnae and Matthew when i drop them off, I couldn’t ask for more!

Schedule

I’m home full-time, so your dog will always have someone around for attention, care, and supervision. I’m highly structured and detail-oriented, which makes it easy for me to follow any established routines for meals, potty breaks, medications, walks, and bedtime schedules. If your dog thrives on routine or needs a little help adjusting, I’m here to support them every step of the way.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
