I love the company of animals!

Pet care experience

I grew up surrounded by animals of all shapes and sizes. I currently have a beautiful dog named Luna and she is my adventure buddy for most activities. I've always been drawn to animals which led me to pet setting and walking for various neighbors, acquaintances and friends starting in my teenage years. I'm more than happy to adapt to any special needs or behavioral concerns that your pet(s) may have. I also have a fair amount of experience working with senior dogs including dogs that struggle with stability, sight and hearing loss in their older age! I'm currently training for a 5k and would love to have your pup as a training companion on a walk or jog! I'm also just as happy to just drop in to keep them company with some cuddles and attention!

If you’re looking for someone to help out with your dogs, I’d definitely recommend Courtney! She does so well with my 2 dogs. She’s been feeding my dogs and taking them on walks for the past year whenever I’m out of town. She always shows up on time and does a wonderful job of communicating with me.

Courtney is amazing! We never have to worry over our cat while we are away. Courtney sends pictures with every visit and communicates quickly when needed. We love Courtney!

Do not use Courtney as your sitter. Despite assuring us that this booking worked for her schedule, she left our dogs alone for over eight hours. She did this knowing that both are senior dogs who need more frequent bathroom breaks. She also knew that one of our dogs is on a medication that upsets his stomach, so it is particularly important for him to have proper breaks. She also failed to administer this medication properly despite knowing he is on a strict regimen of pills. When questioned about her schedule for the next days after she was gone for so long, she gave a vague answer and did not acknowledge all of our questions. We had a bad feeling about this, so we cut our trip short and came home. That's when we found out she had an unauthorized guest over. Was this stranger alone in our home? Was he alone with our dogs? In several of the pictures, the dogs look very stressed and unhappy. Neither dog is good with strange men as they are rescues. We have no faith in Courtney as a sitter.

Absolutley amazing, kept me posted whenever she fed my cat. Even gave her treats, and played with her. Sent me pictures of my cat with every visit as well! Courtney is phenomenal! She even kept my cat company longer than I asked out of the kindness of her heart!

When caring for your pets in your home, I will spoil your pets with as much affection and attention as they are comfortable with. I will treat your home with a courteous and professional mindset. I will respect any rules or boundaries that you require in your home and will ask questions if I am unsure about something.

Information Courtney C. would like to know about your pet

I like to be as well informed as possible when caring for your dogs so any behavioral or care concerns that may come up are important for me to know ahead of time. This helps me to better care for your pup while they are with me! I also prefer to know about any jerk pulling, specifically triggered aggressive behaviors, and chronic health concerns before a walk so that I can be better prepared for situations that may come up!

A typical day

I love to play games with dogs and cats if they allow it! Toys and chase are huge with my dog to keep her happy and active. I'm happy to work in any activity or specific route that you'd prefer for your dog. I tend to gravitate towards different walking routes depending on the season, but my favorite is walking the river side trails in the summer!
