Pet care experience
I have been taking care of dogs ever since I was 10 years old. I have always grown up with dogs so I know the amount of work and care that goes into it. I have been sitting for friends and family and decided why not take my love for dogs and do something I enjoy. I am currently going to school in pursuit to become a Veterinarian so I work as a vet assistant at the local animal hospital. I have worked with almost every age and breed of dog, to puppies to older dogs. From Great Danes to Labs to even dachshund dogs. I have no issue with any breed, age, size. All are welcome here. See reviews for more! House Sitting Are you looking for a loving alternative to putting your dog in a kennel while you’re away? Whether it’s just for the weekend or over a week, I’ll be happy to stay with your dog(s) and treat them as one of the family. Doggy Day Care *Hours are flexible* If you are away for the day or you work long hours and your dog needs special attention, you can drop them off at my home. Your dog will get frequent potty breaks, lots of play, and one-on-one attention. This is a great choice for puppies and senior dogs. Drop-in Visits This is a great option if your dog prefers to stay at his or her home and only needs a visit one or a few times a day, whether for a play date or to be let out to do their business. This is perfect for someone on a tight schedule or works long hours. I am currently am enrolled in college but due to COVID, I am all online. Because of this, my availability is quite large. I am free on most weekdays and weekends. I would love to watch your dog in the comfort of their own home. I will treat them as my own and stay to your schedule as closely as possible so that there is no extra stress added to you leaving your fur babies. I am super flexible and since most of my classes are online I stay there for the majority during the day. I am comfortable with sleeping over and staying for extended periods of time
Reviews
Courtney took great care of our pup when we had to go out of town for the day. We got lots of video and picture updates which was appreciated. Our dog was able to go in and out of the house as she wanted to and had a blast playing with Courtney’s dogs and running around in the fenced in yard. She even got to splash around in a kiddy pool :) Definitely recommend booking Courtney and will use her again!
Our puppy had a great time at Courtney’s house today! Courtney is very responsive and flexible with our booking time. She sent many pictures and videos and her sweet lab was great with our extremely energetic puppy. We will book again!
We've had Courtney come watch our home and our pets on multiple occasions while traveling. We never worry about anything when she stays – she takes wonderful care of our big, energetic GSD and gives our kitten plenty of love, too. She is trustworthy and responsible!
Courtney was absolutely amazing! She took care of our 2 very spoiled boys (one with diabetes) and handled it so smoothly. Couldn’t be more pleased!

I just ask you to let me know if there are any special requests or dietary needs. If there any funny quirks that I should know about.
A typical day
I love to stimulate your dog both physically and mentally. I’m very active so I’d love to go for walks and let them sniff all the new smells. We can play games inside the house and if it’s kind of nasty out we can just cuddle up on the couch and watch TV.
