Highlights
Pet care experience
Full-time Pet Pal, Licensed+Insured
I've had four-legged family members for as long as I can remember, and I've been a reliable pet sitter for friends and family since I was a teenager. I provide caring, reliable pet care services, including pet sitting, dog walking, and drop-in visits with dogs and cats of all ages. I have experience caring for dogs and cats, particularly senior pets. I also have experience administering oral and topical medications to dogs, eye drops and ointments to dogs, and oral and inhalant medications to cats. For walking experience, I've walked huskies, aussies, boxers, pitties, shibas, poodles & poodle mixes, pugs, collies, shih tzus, puppies, elderly dogs, and more! I typically only walk one household of dogs at a time, so your pets will have my full attention. I provide photos and a description of your pet's activities with every walk, drop-in visit, and house sit, so you can be confident they're getting the care they need!

Safety, trust & environment
In a client's home, I would refer to any instructions given by the client for how best to take care of their pet. I will keep pets leashed at all times on walks, only feed them as directed by the client, and adjust playing & walking to meet their specific energy & mobility needs. As an example of the care I currently provide my own senior dog, she has access to a fenced backyard, gets regular walks around the block or to nearby parks (adjusted for her mobility level each day), and spends the majority of her time cuddling & snoring on my lap. For house sitting requests, I would be with your pets overnight in addition to dropping in to check on them or take them for walks throughout the day. If they cannot be left alone for up to 4 hours at a time, I also offer "Constant Care" house sitting at 1.5x my standard rate. Dog walks and weather safety: Safety is my first priority and I may modify a scheduled dog walk in cases of hot weather that I believe may pose a safety hazard to your pet. To determine whether it is safe to walk your pet, I factor in your dog's breed, age, overall health, the ground surface temperature, and the availability of shade and grass on our route. Depending on the risk level each day, I may adjust the scheduled walk time to avoid peak temperatures, or substitute some or all of the walk with at-home playtime & potty breaks. I also carry a small fan and a water bowl on every walk to keep your dog cool as we go.
Ratings and reviews
Courtney is kind, patient and knew how to work with my dogs puppy energy! She’s communicative and was very accommodating. She came to walk my dog on time and had all the extra treats and toys. Would highly recommend her!
Courtney is awesome!! She’s super sweet, reliable, trustworthy, and great with my pups! 🐶🐶🐶
Courtney did such an excellent job with my boys! She pays close attention to detail and is thoughtful and very communicative! She was able to handle Cookie’s senior dog dementia very well and also Biscuit’s weirdo habits. We are grateful! ☺️
You’re always wonderful and timely and kind with the puppies! Thank you so much
She is a wonderful sitter! She has such a calm and reassuring presence and is incredibly attentive to my pet’s needs. She communicates clearly, is very easy to work with, and always does a great job. Most importantly, my pet genuinely enjoys spending time with her. I feel completely at ease knowing my furbaby is in her care and would highly recommend her!
Courtney did a wonderful job taking care of my cat. She followed instructions, made sure my kitty was well-fed, and spent time playing with her. Courtney was communicative and easy to work with, and I’d recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter!

Taking care of pets is currently my main focus. Aside from taking care of my senior Chug (chihuahua-pug), Snickers, I have ample free time to devote to pet care, particularly during the workdays.
