Highlights
Pet care experience
🐶Licensed & Insured🐱
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.

Safety, trust & environment
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.

Courtney has been an absolute blessing for our family and for our fur baby, Clifford! She is incredibly reliable, always on time, and communicates exceptionally well. If she’s ever running a few minutes behind, she keeps us updated, which we truly appreciate. What sets Courtney apart are her detailed walk reports. They’re so thoughtful and thorough that I feel like I was right there with her and Clifford, getting to experience their adventures together. It’s clear she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after and treats them as if they were her own. Knowing Clifford is in such loving and capable hands gives us complete peace of mind. Courtney is truly one of a kind, and we are so grateful to have found someone we trust to care for our boy. I can’t recommend her highly enough!
Courtney escorted my dog, Mr. Scout, on our wedding day for the ceremony and cocktail hour! She was phenomenal! She made sure that Mr. Scout had plenty of water on a hot day, and truly made the day special! 10 out of 10 recommend her as a caregiver for your pet!
Courtney is an angel! A true animal lover and caregiver for my boy Clifford. She is a great communicator. Stays in touch during the visit and she gives greatly detailed end of visit reports with great photos. I feel so comfortable and know my babyboy is safe in her hands. Absolutely my top choice to take care of my dog.
Wonderful! Very understanding of my dogs injury and willing to work with her.
