Boarding, Day Care, & More!

Pet care experience

I offer many services including boarding, day care, drop-in visits, and selective house sitting. I also offer bathing, pick-up, and training upon request. I will always update you on your pet during the stay and will provide references upon request. For boarding and day care, I will only take two small dogs OR one medium dog at a time. I live in an apartment above the barn on my parents' farm. My fenced yard is now directly attached out my door, but covers nearly 2 acres attached to the barn. I take the pups in my care into the pen for potty breaks and playtime. I NEVER leave them alone outside. I have 3 dogs of my own. I’ve been training and studying dog behavior since I was 5 years old. One of my dogs actually belongs to my dad, but I care for him. I also have experience administering medication to animals. I've pet sat older animals, even cats, who needed daily medication. I am a pro at giving my own dogs medicine without any trauma. I worked in a vet clinic as a kennel assistant and had to give medications to animals as needed.

Courtney was our sitter for 2 weeks while we were overseas and thereafter. She did a wonderful job and was very dependable and trustworthy! She sent pictures and videos often while we were gone. It shows that she loves animals.... She treated my Corgi and cat as if they were her own - they loved her! ❤ We have since moved to TN and wish she were with us. I recommend her highly! :)

Courtney did a great job as usual! This time I had my little man go over to her place and stay. He had so much fun playing with her two dogs and running around the large fenced area! When I went to pick him up I could tell he really didn't want to leave! She also noticed a minor medical problem and clipped his nails for me. He can't wait to go back! Also, Courtney texted me often letting me know how he was doing and sending pics.

Courtney has been caring for my little man for over a year. I have had her stay overnight in my home, she has come just to do walks/play with him and I have also sent my pup over to her place. Courtney is very reliable and wonderful with animals! Mr. Fitz loves her and when I come home I always find him (and my home) well taken care of. Courtney is also good to send photos/updates as needed. I highly recommend Courtney-you can trust your babies with her 100%!

Courtney has watched my pets on several occasions and I have been more than pleased with her ability to care for my pets. She is the only pet sitter I trust when I am out of town for a long period and the only sitter I trust with my elderly pets that need medication and special care. I highly recommend her!
