Pet care experience

Quality care with 1-1 training

I have a range of experience at rescues, sanctuaries, kennels, catteries and doggy daycares! I’ve worked through Rover since 2021, as well as my own pet care service 0-Six Pet Care since 2022. I have an animal management diploma and have undertaken courses with Dog Guru and Pack Pro in Dog Body Language, certificates can be shown upon request! I think of myself as efficient, compassionate, honest and reliable! I have worked with dogs of all sizes, temperaments and breeds! I’ve grown up with 5 cats alongside rats, hamsters and fish so I’m comfortable with a range of other pets! I currently work at Dogs Trust full time but I am able to pop back on my breaks and take time off as and when available. I have years of experience with grooming, feeding, medicating, health checking, exercising and cleaning. I previously worked at a popular dog daycare in Southend and helped with supervising play, enrichment, feeding and ensuring they are healthy and treated with the best quality of care. I will always ensure that the animals come first and ensure that their quality of health is never compromised or at risk and the same level of care and compassion learned here will be shown to your pets! My family dog is a 4 year-old dachshund-terrier mix who is frustration reactive and a resource guarder! He’s helped me to adapt my training techniques with reactive dogs so I’m constantly learning new ways to enrich him with slow feeders, lickimats, puzzles, snuffle mats and so on! If you’d like me to bring some of these items during bookings feel free to let me know!

Garden time is always supervised, as is feeding time to ensure your pet stays safe. Ensuring they get an sufficient amount of enrichment and sleep is important to me to make sure your pet is happy all round!

Courtney stayed at our home to look after our dog whilst away for a weekend. We couldn’t have asked for a better service from Courtney! And would recommend her to anyone. We felt Courtney was a safe and reliable person to leave our dog and home with! Thanks again x

It's the second time we have used Courtney to pet sit and she did an excellent job once again. Terrance and Tia seemed very underwhelmed to see us arrive home, so I think it is also a big thumbs up from them too.

Courtney was great with the dogs and kept us informed with messages and photos. Can't recommend her highly enough. She goes above and beyond

Courtney was brilliant! She looked after our fur ball for a week and did an amazing job. We came home to a happy and well cared for pet. Would highly recommend her service to anyone looking for reliable and loving pet care

This was our first time using Rover to find a pet sitter to stay in our home, but Courtney made it a very positive experience. Unfortunately as our poor old dog, Terrance, has some health issues there were quite a few instructions to deal with, but Courtney looked after him, Tia our cat and the house very well. We would happily book her again. Apologies to Courtney for Tel's snoring, constant scratching and his smelliness.

I do have some pets and on the occasional day I need to be local to check in on them, pop me a message to check for availability! I also drive so distance isn’t a problem, provided it’s, ideally, within Essex.

Courtney can host up to 3 drop-ins per day
I’d love to know any behavioural traits and their background if possible in order to better understand your pet as well as their needs, but this isn’t necessary! If they’re training specific tricks I’d love to know to ensure I can follow the same lead, whether that’s being indifferent to other animals, reducing barking or walking nicely in a heel position!
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.
