Highlights
Pet care experience
Lifelong Animal Lover
*Licensed and 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 recently began providing pet care services through Rover as well, 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, as well as oral and inhalant medications to cats. For walking experience, I've walked huskies, aussies, boxers, pitties, shibas, maltipoos, 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 amazing! She was great with Twixx and I will absolutely book with her again!
Such a calm demeanor, my pups took to Courtney instantly! Glad to have found her!
Courtney is absolutely amazing! She’s super responsive, professional and thoughtful. We did a meet and greet that put me at complete ease. My outgoing boisterous pup completely welcomed Courtney into the pack. My shy pup was her shy self, eventually warming up. Courtney knew just how to engage with each of their different personalities and I could tell right away how talented Courtney is with animals. It was our pure good fortune to meet Courtney and I will definitely engage her as often as I can. 😁
Courtney was amazing with my senior pup. Communicative, timely and, most importantly, caring. She provided detailed updates and was incredibly accommodating of my pup’s disposition. Easily one of the best sitters I’ve ever had!
Courtney is great! She’s really reliable, punctual, and Charlie feels comfortable with her.
Courtney has been a God send! I started using Rover just a few months ago and she was my very first dog walker and first experience…and I have nothing but positive things to say!! She’s very responsive, responsible and sends me pictures of my senior pup when I’m away. I can see the pictures and her messages and it’s comforting, and brings me peace knowing he’s in great hands. ❤️ I highly recommend her.

Schedule
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.
