Pet care experience
*** I am starting a new job with a local animal rescue on April 10th and my availability will be reduced. If you are an existing client, feel free to reach out and I will do my best to fit you in if possible*** I've been around animals for my entire life, big and small, and love them all. My two rescue pups, Cheddar and Clementine, are my world. Would absolutely love to take care of your pets just like they are my own! Experienced sitter for dogs, cats, birds, and on one occasion a praying mantis. I previously worked at the Humane Society Silicon Valley and I've also fostered pups with them and a rescue in Oregon. In spring of 2023, I interned at the Wildlife Center of Silicon Valley and learned how to provide tube feedings, administer subcutaneous fluids, and give meds to wild animals (so your pet will be easy peasy if they have necessary meds!) Will provide lots of updates and photos of your pet, and can ensure that they will be well taken care of ♥️
Reviews
She’s always amazing and my pup adores her. It’s always a relief to know that he’s in such good hands when we’re away:)
Courtney is the best, can't imagine booking anyone else!
Courtney has been absolutely amazing in taking care of my cat during my travels, ensuring he is well-fed, happy, and pampered with attention. The photos she sends me are heartwarming and give me peace of mind, knowing my Chewy is in the best hands ☺️
Courtney was amazing, very nice and took such good care of our pup. She sent the cutest photos. 10/10 for sure

Safety, trust & environment
Big believer in the power of positive reinforcement and I apply fear-free principles in my pet care. If you utilize an electronic/shock or prong collar, I am not the best fit to care for your pup.
Information Courtney F. would like to know about your pet
It's good to know things like: -How does your dog walk on a leash, and do you use a harness/etc? -Any allergies? -Any quirks/things your pet is afraid of that I should avoid? (For example: skateboards, men in hats) -Does your pet have an Instagram account? (If so, I’d love to follow them!) No breed preferences :)
A typical day
It's totally up to your pet and their preferred routine. I'm happy to go for a long walk around the neighborhood or a trip to a local park, or just to hang out with your pet at home if they're more of a couch potato.

Availability
My availability varies slightly from week-to-week, so I typically update my rover schedule only for the next few weeks. For recurring walks or drop-ins, shoot me a message and I can let you know if the dates/times beyond 2 weeks out can be accommodated (most likely, yes!)
