Information Courtney D. would like to know about your pet

It would be helpful to know your dog’s typical routine, what they like/dislike, and how to make them feel most comfortable during their stay. Happy to accommodate as best I can!

A typical day

I love walks and cuddle times- happy to play with your dog’s favorite toy or get in some good exercise with them to get out their energy. I live in a very walkable neighborhood and right next to a fenced in park for play time.

Pet care experience

Our family dog recently passed away, and I am looking to fill the whole. I do not have any pets, so your dog would get my full attention. Our dog was 15 years old when she passed, so I have some experience working with elderly dogs.

I’ve had the privilege of trusting Courtney to care for our pets, and she is the best! No matter what kind of pet she’s looking after, she takes the time to get to know them and makes sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. What I appreciate most is the genuine care she puts into everything she does. She doesn’t just stop by to feed or check on them—she pays attention to the little things, follows instructions carefully, and treats every animal as if it were her own. Knowing she’s the one caring for our pets gives me complete peace of mind. She’s dependable, thoughtful, and incredibly trustworthy. It’s clear that she has a true love for animals, and they seem to sense that right away. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your pets with kindness, patience, and genuine compassion while you’re away, I wholeheartedly recommend her. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to trust her with our pets again, and I know she’ll give yours the same loving care she has always given ours.

Courtney is an extremely kind and responsible caregiver. She spent a very large amount of time looking after my dog in various settings including in her home, in the city, in the car on road trips and in the wilderness on long hikes. Courtney is patient, attentive and prepared for any situation that may arise. She is very kind and loves dogs; you can be sure she will treat your pet with gentleness and thoughtfulness. I would trust her to look after the wellbeing of my pet any time.
