Dr. Courtney Follman-Veterinarian
Pet care experience
Hello! My name is Dr. Courtney Follman and I am a veterinarian. :) I have had over 10 years of experience as both a veterinary nurse working with small animals and pet-sitting prior to veterinary medical school. I’m extremely comfortable with all pets big and small including those with extra needs such as medicating, seizure watch, metabolic issues ie. diabetes, cushings, addisons, etc. I also have over 3 years of experience working at a 24/7 Emergency Veterinary Hospital, so I know how to handle any problems that could occur during my time with your fur baby! I will provide experienced veterinary professional care in addition to giving lots of love to your pet and treating them as if they were my own. You can trust that in addition to excellent pet sitting- i also closely monitor your fur baby to ensure they do not get into anything they're not supposed to, monitor their urination/bowel movements, activity level, and appetite to ensure they are the happiest and healthiest they can be. I will provide plenty of video and picture updates throughout my care as well as keep in frequent contact when I do stop by to care for your babies. I am Fear Free Certified and do my best to keep your little ones happy and relaxed while in the comfort of their home. I prioritize low stress handling, soothing voice tones, and anything to keep your pets from being scared or fearful. If you need me to water plants, collect the mail, or any other favors I’m happy to do so and we can discuss these when you contact me. I look forward to getting to know you and your fur baby!
Reviews
I’ve used Courtney twice now to watch my elderly cat that needs insulin twice a day. She makes everything simple and I love the picture updates. Feel very comfortable with leaving my furry child in her care!
It was my first time leaving my little boy at home, and I felt completely at ease with Courtney watching him! She kept me updated throughout the visit and was spectacular. It’s always a relief to have someone experienced and knowledgeable to help!
Courtney was fabulous! Great communication, plenty of picture and video updates which I appreciate!! My cat Meatball is 15yrs and recently diagnosed with diabetes, so in addition to food and normal things, he also needs insulin shots. I felt very comfortable with Courtney and meatball seems like his normal happy, hungry, and snuggly self when I got home. Highly recommend and would use her again in a heartbeat!!!
This was our first time using Rover and I was a little nervous, but Courtney messaged us updates and pictures daily while we were out of town. Could not be more pleased with Courtney as our dog sitter for the week we were on vacation! Truly appreciate her care for our pups!

As a veterinarian I make sure your pup feels right at home along with medically taking care of any complex needs they have. I’m great at communication and keeping in touch with you (with tons of pictures!). Fear free certified.
Information Courtney F. would like to know about your pet
I would like to be informed about tendencies such as animals that try to escape if the door is open, those that try to get into/ingest food or anything else that could cause them harm, what their favorite toys/activities are, any fears such as big dogs, thunderstorms, etc. and finally be made aware of any and all medical problems.
A typical day
I'm willing and excited to take your pet on adventures all around town. I love getting your fur baby out for both fun and exercise!
