Safety, trust & environment

I follow instructions based on what the pet owner has expressed they want. This includes where the pet stays in their own home. I can adapt walks depending on the dog, whether they get on with other dogs or not, can or cannot be trusted off lead, is reactive etc.

Information Courtney H. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your dog has any additional needs that need to be catered for. If they have special food or medications. If they are dog/people reactive. If they can be let off lead in enclosed areas or not. Or if they are possessive and will guard objects or food.

A typical day

I keep dogs on lead at all times unless given express permission to let them run off lead, and then this will only be in a secure and enclosed area. I always have pockets bursting with healthy dog treats, usually chicken. I think it's important to tire out your dogs mind as well as their legs so I always try to incorporate some stimulating games or some scent games into my visits. During drop-ins I will follow what the owner has requested. Feeding, water change, toilet breaks, and then giving some love and some play time. Please be aware I have to bring my son with me on bookings, he is well behaved and due to us having a grumpy dog he knows not to touch dogs until told to.

Pets

Ex-RAF Dog Handler seeks long walks & face licks.

Pet care experience

I was an RAF dog handler for just under 8 years, where I gained alot of experience in animal husbandry, spotting illnesses and injury and gained qualifications such as pet first aid, explosive search handling, vehicle search handing and more. I love dogs, big ones, small ones, ones that still stink even though you've bathed them 3 times this week. The ones that bark at literally nothing and even the ones that have a face only a mother could love. I have gained quite intense experience of working with dogs of all personalities and temperaments, which has left me well equipped to provide a safe environment and experience for your dog. I prioritise welfare, comfort and safety for any dogs I care for as a baseline standard.

Courtney was absolutely phenomenal! She cared for our two cats, Benjie and Bonya, for 9 days and went far above and beyond the call of duty. From the moment we entrusted her with their care, it was clear she truly loves animals and treats them as if they were her own. Not only did she ensure their basic needs were met (feeding, litter cleaning, etc.), but she also spent quality time with them, keeping them entertained and happy while we were away. She sent us regular updates, including pictures and notes, which gave us incredible peace of mind knowing our fur babies were in the best hands. My wife absolutely loved getting up-to-date pictures of Benjie and Bonya; it made being away so much easier for her! Courtney’s attention to detail and genuine care for our cats were unmatched. When we returned, Benjie and Bonya were content, relaxed, and well taken care of—just like we never left! If you're looking for someone who will go the extra mile to care for your pets, we can't recommend Courtney highly enough. She's reliable, communicative, and truly exceptional. Thank you, Courtney, for being such a wonderful caretaker!

I had an amazing experience with Courtney! She was incredibly prompt in her communication and kept me updated throughout the walk with pictures and details about how my dog was doing. I felt completely at ease knowing my furry friend was in great hands. Highly recommend!!

Courtney agreed to drop in midday to walk our dog, Marco, for an hour at a time. As timid and cautious as Marco is, Courtney was very patient with him, and gave him plenty of attention, even when he didn't want to go outside. She brought her child in a backpack-like sling, and ultimately adjusted to a stroller when our dog showed fear of the contraption. We really appreciate her accommodating Marco, while exhibiting care and compassion for him. Thank you Courtney, we would recommend her to care for your dog!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
