Pet care experience
Hi, I’m Courtney! I’m passionate about providing the best care for your furry family members. With a reputation for reliability, excellent communication skills and a deep sense of responsibility, I’m here to ensure that your pets receive the care and attention they deserve. I have owned cats and dogs for 25 years. I have had experience with dogs that have high anxiety, high energy levels and everything in between. My patience with pets is above and beyond due to training my mother’s dogs recently as 8 month old puppies from the shelter. As a graduate student, I have a better schedule than that of a full time employee. I would love to talk your pets on walks during my lunch breaks, before or after school. When you entrust your pets to me, you can rest assured that they’ll be treated as my own (with lots of snuggles and love). I believe in open communication, so you’ll receive regular updates in your pet’s well-being while you’re away, whether that’s ensuring they get their medications, exercise or cuddle time. I’m committed to maintaining your pet’s routines, health, and their happiness. Reach out to me today and let’s discuss how I can provide the best care and attention to your four legged family members!
Reviews
Courtney was great with my animals! I will rebook again soon. Def recommend.
Courtney was very patient with our pup. She updated me throughout the visit to let me know how he was doing and kept me informed.
Mila our dog looks forward to Courtney’s walks. She is super reliable and has great communication!!
Very happy so far with Courtney as our weekly scheduled dog walker for our pup Mila. She has wonderful communication and Mila seems to really enjoy her walks so far!
About Courtney C.
Communication
Skills
Safety, trust & environment
As a pet caregiver, I prioritize safety, trust, and a positive environment for pets. In my client's home, I conduct a thorough assessment to identify potential hazards, implement secure confinement measures, and establish a consistent routine to build trust. I create a stimulating and comfortable environment by incorporating enriching activities and maintaining cleanliness. Communication with clients is key to understanding their pet's unique needs, ensuring a tailored approach to care and reinforcing a trustworthy relationship.
Information Courtney C. would like to know about your pet
Let me know if your dog has any special needs that I should be aware of! I am good about being adaptable to any animal but just like to be aware ahead of time. If I’m left with a list of tasks, I will be sure they are all done.
A typical day
I love to go for walks and hike, and would be more than happy to bring a dog or two along with me! I also enjoy playing games, like tug of war, with dogs to keep them stimulated and get their energy out.

Availability
I’m currently a graduate student taking classes full time, but have lots of time to care for your pets before school (before 8pm), during lunch break (12-1pm) , and after school ends (after 5pm) Monday, Wednesday- Friday. On Tuesdays, I have more availability, and only have school from 1-3pm. On weekends, I am completely free and enjoy being outdoors and would love a four legged friend to take with me on walks.
