Pet care experience

I love caring for pups and cats!

I am an avid animal lover and caregiver of four legged friends (and some others too!) ! I treat all animals like I would my own family pets which means with lots of love and care. To me, watching and caring for pets is more than just a way of making money, but is something I take a lot of joy from! I actually started pet care as a way to make a little extra money for my own pet's medical needs and have continued since. I’ve used pet sitting services for my pup and cats and know the importance of quality care and updates.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I follow your instructions as completely as can as I know how unique each pet is and I want to make their routine as close to normal as I can. I will spend time walking/playing with/feeding/cleaning up after pets as needed based on as close to your pets routine as I can. I don't really mind messes and always keep pet parents updated on how the pet is doing and any health or safety concerns that might come up. I am always happy to bring in mail, packages, water plants, and put garbage out/pull it back in within the visit. I offer a free meet and greet where we can chat about your pets to make sure I know what they need, have a plan for emergencies and other situations, and often in person so the pet has met me at least once before the booking.

Courtney took such good care of my cats while I was out of town. One of my boys recently had surgery so I was extremely nervous at leaving him but with Courtney I needed not be - he was incredibly good hands! She was reliable, communicative, knowledgeable, and gave my boys all the love and attention. Would definitely use her services again!

Courtney takes such wonderful care of my babygirl, Jade! I used to feel such gut-wrenching fear leaving my cat, even for a weekend, because she can be a very anxious scaredy-cat. She’s not great with new faces. However, she warmed up to Courtney on day one(which is truly saying something!) Jade has historically hidden under the bed and cried every time a new face comes over. But not with Courtney! She makes sure that Jade is well-loved and cared for. Makes sure everything is clean when we come back home too. Absolutely fantastic. Will definitely be asking her to watch Jade any time I need someone! HIGHLY recommend!

Courtney went way above and beyond our expectations. She was a great caregiver, and a great communicator. We highly recommend her and will definitely request her again!

Schedule

The way I handle bookings: I create my schedule based on a balance of request and location, therefore, I appreciate and prioritize bookings that have some flexibility in time. I do this because it allows me to spend less time on the road and more time with pets! Pet sitting is a major part of my life and I schedule to make sure it works when I accept a booking. I typically do not take early morning bookings due to keeping a routine with my own zoo (two senior cats with health issues and an anxious dog!) Happy to chat more about timeframes and to confirm availability!

I like to know any specifics about your pet that will keep them safe, cared for, and loved during your time away. I can customize my visit to your pup or cats needs if we talk about it ahead of time! It can be helpful to know parking information, how I will gain entry to see your pet, any medication procedures, emergency contact, and vet information (with leash or carrier location). For dogs on walks, I only walk with non-retractable leashes. If your dog does not have a non-retractable leash, I am ok with using my own or recommending some options. I prefer harnesses for pups, but this is not required. If your dog (or any pet) has attempted or completed an escape or has been lost in the past, this is helpful to know too. If your pup is working on leash skills, that is ok. I don’t approach other dogs during a walk, but it is good to know if your dog has any reactivity to other dogs just in case. If we go out in a yard, I will be with the pup the whole time.
