Pet care experience

Let me love your babies!

I grew up in the country of East TN with a gaggle of dogs and cats around in addition to a slew of smaller animals; I love animals! I understand that loving a pet well requires a balance of spoiling and structure. I have trained multiple dogs between my own and my family, and do well with sticking to behavioral plans. I understand that each pet (and owner) has its own personality and set of needs which I'm prepared to meet!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

New pet sitters can be stressful to animals and I prefer to mirror the routine your pet is accustomed to; for this reason, I will prefer to look after them in their own environment. Salt Lake is such a pedestrian and pet-friendly place full of sidewalks and dog parks! If your dog likes to hike I will be happy to take them to the trails, if they enjoy socializing on a patio I will be happy to have them along. I'm here to meet the needs of your pet!

Booked an anniversary weekend away with my wife only to find our dog sitter plans fell through. Courtney was absolutely incredible at communicating, and showing a high level of care and attentiveness to our pups. Highly recommended!

Courtney was amazing! She stayed with Indie for a week while we left town for Christmas. Indie seems so happy and cared for! I got picture updates and everything. My house was cared for and my plants look better than when I care for them (just an added bonus). Will book again!

Courtney was great with our dog! She was reliable, and we will definitely hire her again in the future.

Courtney took great care of my pup while the family and I went out of town. She was very responsive and provided daily updates! Would recommend Courtney for all your puppo needs!

Schedule

I do work full-time days during the week (except for summer) but have evening availability for walking and check-ins. I can stay overnight during the week, but will be away during the work day. Please note that overnight house sitting does not mean I stay with your pets 24/7; however, I can accommodate this need for an additional charge!

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
over 101 lbs
Courtney can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
The most important things for me to know are the following: - How does your dog do on a leash? - How does your dog do in public with other dogs? - Are there any triggering behaviors I should avoid? - Are there any favorite things your animal really loves? - Are there any medical complications or needs? Heartworms, medication, wounds healing, diet restrictions, special potty needs?
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
