Dog Lover with time for your pup!
Pet care experience
Hi! I’m Courtney, and I love dogs and have lots of experience with dogs of all sizes and breeds from Chihuahuas to Pit bull terriers to Great Danes. I have worked for humane societies for years walking shelter dogs and helping with basic training and grooming, so I have lots of experience with dogs of all sizes including strong, highly active dogs that require an experienced controlled dog walker/sitter. I’m a firm believer in clear, calm communication with any dog that I am working with and I only use positive reinforcement. I work from home part time and have lots of time to dedicate to your pup! I’m responsible and respectful, as well as, punctual, and will happily give your pup all my love and attention! I’m available daily for dog walks and boarding and I currently have a small group of regular dogs that come on different weekdays for doggie daycare. My yard and entire property is fully fenced with a 6ft wood privacy fence and there is an extra gate between the front and back yards.
Reviews
Courtney is an absolutely wonderful dog sitter! We have a very emotional and anxious greyhound, so I'm particular about who watches her. However, she's always very comfortable at Courtney's home! Courtney takes such good care of her, we have true peace of mind when I'm on vacation. Courtney is patient and kind with her, helping her figure out how to walk up stairs, and does everything she can to make our dog comfortable. She also sends so many photos which I really appreciate. I can't recommend Courtney enough.
Courtney is the best! I have a very anxious chihuahua mix and after a few stays with Courtney, she has become part of his pack and he loves her and her partner and all the wonderful dogs. He has the best time there. It's like Dog summer camp. I love it that she sends me pictures all day long and every time I try to contact her she gets back to me in minutes....every time! Her house is so safe and secure with a wrap around fence and big yard. I can't say enough good things about Courtney!
Herbert was very excited to go to Courtney’s again for daycare! This is the best rover experience we’ve had and we can’t wait to return. We know Herbert is in great hands when he stays with Courtney.
We are so grateful for the exceptional level of care Courtney provided for our dog Herbert. She has created such a wonderful environment for pups and Herbert was very comfortable staying in her home. He absolutely loved playing with her sweet dogs. It’s clear Courtney has a deep understanding of dogs and what it takes to meet their needs. We appreciated all the updates and pictures throughout Herbert’s stay. We can’t thank her enough and look forward to booking again!

Safety, trust & environment
I live in West Oakland (very close to the Bart station!) and my home and yard are very secure with a 6ft tall redwood fence surrounding the entire property. My yard is pretty large and great for off leash fun as it’s completely safe and secure. I live only with my husband and our two very friendly Cavalier King Charles Spaniel who loves every dog they has ever met. Oliver even has a way of making dogs that are usually not dog friendly play as if they were a puppy - it seems to be his super power! While Opal is just a love who is always ready for fun in the yard or cuddles on the couch.

Information Courtney B. would like to know about your pet
I’m happy to work with all people and all types of dogs. There are no bad dogs or bad breeds, only ones that need extra love and attention, as well as some firm good ground rules! If you are looking for boarding or daycare, please note I have two very friendly Cavalier King Charles spaniels named Oliver and Opal that have never met a dog that they didn’t immediately fall in love with. I always set up a meet and greet to be sure your dog is comfortable with Oliver and Opal and that everyone gets along. Please also note that for boarding bookings it includes drop off of your pup anytime after 4pm on the start day and the pick up by 11am on the end day - if you need to drop off your pup earlier on the start day and/or later on the end day, then I can always add a day (or two) of doggie daycare to your boarding booking request.
A typical day
I love long walks around my quiet, very pet friendly neighborhood as well as spending time in the mornings at dog parks like South Prescott Dog park which is 2 minutes from my home. I also have a great secure yard for dogs to run free and get their energy out chasing a ball or each other!

Availability
I’m available pretty much anytime for dog walks but I do run a doggie daycare (max 5 dogs per day) in my home with my partner between the hours of 7:30am and 5:30pm Monday to Thursday. My current group of regulars (that come varying weekdays) includes dogs ranging from 15 - 65 pounds and all the dogs are between 2 and 4 years old. I also offer boarding for up to 2 dogs per night.
