Disponibilidad
Pet care is my primary focus, and I maintain a structured schedule to ensure each visit is calm, unrushed, and reliable. I offer weekday daytime and evening availability, with the exception of Friday evenings, which are limited. I also offer scheduled weekend time blocks, allowing me to plan routes efficiently and provide consistent care. My availability works especially well for: 🐾Midday and evening walks 🐾Drop-in visits 🐾Routine weekday care 🐾Planned weekend needs Because I schedule intentionally, I’m able to provide dependable timing, clear communication, and attentive care for every client. If you’re unsure whether your requested time fits my schedule, feel free to reach out — I’m happy to discuss availability and see if we’re a good match.

Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I approach every visit with calm awareness, clear routines, and close attention to each pet’s body language and environment. During walks and drop-in visits, I prioritize: 🐾Secure leash handling and controlled movement 🐾Awareness of surroundings, other animals, and potential hazards 🐾Following each pet’s established routines and household rules 🐾Adjusting care based on weather, energy levels, and stress signals I’m experienced in working with pets who may be anxious, excitable, or sensitive to new environments, and I take a patient, confidence-building approach to help them feel secure. I never rush interactions and allow pets to set the pace when needed. I respect each home as well as each pet, maintaining clean spaces, locking doors and gates, and providing clear visit updates so pet parents always know how things went. My goal is to create a safe, predictable, and positive experience for every pet — and peace of mind for their people.

To provide the best care possible, I appreciate knowing about any: 🐾Medical needs, medications, or mobility limitations 🐾Behavioral considerations such as reactivity, anxiety, or fear triggers 🐾Preferences, routines, or household rules your pet is used to 🐾Any recent changes in behavior, health, or environment Understanding your pet’s personality, quirks, and comfort levels allows me to adjust my approach and ensure each visit is calm, safe, and positive. If your pet has specific needs or sensitivities, I welcome open communication ahead of time so we can plan appropriately and make sure we’re a great fit.

Each visit is tailored to the individual pet and their routine, but consistency and attentiveness are always my focus. For drop-in visits, I start by checking in on the pet’s overall mood, comfort, and environment. I follow feeding schedules, refresh water, administer medications or supplements if needed, and make sure litter boxes or outdoor areas are clean and safe. I always spend dedicated time providing companionship, calm interaction, or play based on the pet’s energy level. For walks, I use secure leash handling and adjust pace and distance to the dog’s needs, weather conditions, and comfort level. Walks include time for sniffing and decompression, not just physical exercise, and I remain alert to surroundings at all times. When appropriate, I incorporate light enrichment or mental engagement such as simple training cues, scent-based activities, or structured play — never overstimulating and always pet-led. After each visit, I provide clear updates and photos so pet parents know exactly how their pet did and can feel confident while they’re away.

What Sets Me Apart I bring over 15 years of hands-on pet care experience, supporting households with everything from energetic puppies to senior pets, anxious dogs, and multi-animal homes. My approach is calm, structured, and attentive. I focus on reading body language, maintaining routines, and creating a sense of safety and trust during every visit — especially for pets who are shy, reactive, or easily overstimulated. My experience includes: 🐾Walking and caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels 🐾Confident handling of strong pullers, excitable dogs, and nervous pets 🐾Feeding routines, medications, supplements, and special instructions 🐾Reliable drop-in care with detailed updates and photos 🐾Maintaining clean, safe environments during visits Farm & multi-species experience: I also have hands-on experience caring for horses, poultry, ducks, and other farm animals, making me a strong fit for homes with more complex care needs or multiple species. I’m comfortable working with non-traditional pets (such as reptiles and small animals) and households that require extra attention to detail. If your pet has unique needs, I’m always happy to discuss a custom care plan. I believe pets are family, which means they deserve to be included in life's biggest moments whenever possible as well. In addition to traditional pet and farm care, I've also had the privilege of serving as a wedding pet attendant, helping a beloved dog safely take part in his family's special day. From transportation and supervision to photo assistance, hydration, and comfort monitoring, I handled Scout's needs throughout the event so his family could focus on making memories. Whether it's a daily walk, farm visit, or a once-in-a-lifetime celebration, I strive to provide the same level of care, patience, and attention that I would want for my own animals. My goal is simple: consistent, dependable care that keeps pets relaxed and pet parents confident.

Reseñas

Wonderful! Very understanding of my dogs injury and willing to work with her.

Courtney is the best! She was so kind and patient with my dog, who can be a little bit scared of new people. She worked so well with my dog and found what worked best for him. Will definitely be rebooking with her!

We love Courtney! She is always so detailed and loving to our kitty!

Courtney has built such a wonderful bond with my dog, Clifford—he absolutely lights up every time she visits. Her communication is exceptional; she keeps me consistently updated, sends photos, and always checks in, which gives me total peace of mind. She even goes the extra mile by notifying me when packages arrive and sending photos of where they’re placed. Courtney has an incredible personality, is genuinely kind and trustworthy, and takes care of Clifford as if he were her own. I couldn’t ask for a better dog walker and highly recommend her.
