Pet friendly Fishtown
Pet care experience
Conveniently located in Fishtown, I am a life long pet owner and sitter with a pet loving teenaged daughter. We are owned by a 5 year old Boston terrier/sloth hybrid named Biggie and a formerly homeless dumpster gremlin/kitty named Linda. I’ve had everything from hamsters and bunnies to pet rats, pot bellied pigs and even an indoor pet rooster! I’ve worked as a triage nurse at a veterinary emergency center, I’ve fostered countless animals for shelters and rescued more animals from the streets than I can even count. During the week I work 9-5 about 20 minutes from home in a spacious pet-friendly office. I am always the go-to pet sitter whenever my friends or family need someone because they know how much I just love all animals and they can be confident that when their babies are with me they will get the same love and attention they receive at home!
Reviews
Courtney was so amazing and her pup is so welcoming to my 2 dogs. I could tell my dogs had a great time playing because they took a nap when we got home. I highly recommend Courtney as a dog sitter, she made sure my Lincoln got his meds on time and gave lots of love to Max who cannot get enough attention.
Courtney was absolutely amazing! She was super flexible with my last minute request and both my doxies loved her so much they didn’t wanna leave. Loved seeing pics and getting updates throughout the stay. Will definitely be booking with her again!
I have a senior shih-tzu that needs special attention because of his different anxieties, Courtney is the only person Pepper feels comfortable staying with when I am away, she watches him for every vacation and whenever I’m going to be away from home for most of the day. He is always so happy to see her and it’s obvious how comfortable he is in her home. She knows his routine and quirks and does such a great job of catering to them. She always sends me the cutest pics and updates.
I have never met ANYONE who loves animals, particularly dogs, as much as Courtney. Your pet could not be in better hands due to her caring nature and calm demeanor. I have yet to see a dog who doesn't love her and she will treat your pup like her own!

Information Courtney C. would like to know about your pet
Is your pet house/litter box trained? Do you take your dog for leashed walks or do they prefer playing in the yard? Does your dog need to be crated when alone? Does your dog have any history of aggression with kids, dogs or cats?
A typical day
When we are at home our favorite past time is cuddling on the couch together and watching movies. I don’t have any young children so it’s a calm and quiet home which makes it an ideal environment for senior pets. If your dog is laid back or lazy and prefers to spend their time napping the day away I can accommodate that! My dog is a clown and always ready to have fun so he makes an ideal buddy for younger dogs wanting a playmate but also has no problem spending his day just curling up on the couch if your dog is simply looking for a nap partner! We try to spend time outside when the weather cooperates so in the evening we enjoy strolling the neighborhood and meeting other dogs and their owners out doing the same. Fishtown is a very pet friendly neighborhood, many of the neighbors do professional dog sitting and walking so we are always meeting different dogs when we are out on our walks. On weekdays my teenagers are happy to be stand-in cuddlers and potty break providers when I’m at work.
