Safety, trust & environment

I have experience with high energy and reactive dogs, timid cats, and everything in between. I am happy to give treats and reinforce trained commands during walks. Just let me know what they need!

Information Courtney H. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any special needs or behaviors that I should account for. My number one priority is that your pet has a safe, stimulating and fun time!

A typical day

I love letting dogs sniff everything to their heart's desire! I will let your dog lead the way on a walk, allowing them to stop and sniff the roses (or fire hydrants) as long as they like. I am very attentive and will ensure that they get lots of sniffing in without getting into or eating anything that they shouldn't. Sniffing is one of the most stimulating activities for dogs! For cats, I leave most of the communication/affection up to them! I don’t want to overwhelm a cat who is already stressed about their parent(s) leaving, so I will check in and fulfill their needs but will keep my distance if they are afraid of strangers. If they aren’t shy, I also love to play with rambunctious cats! Just let me know their demeanor during our meet & greet so I can help them feel the most comfortable 😸

Pet care experience

I have taken care of dogs and cats my entire life. I currently have a chihuahua mix named Lucy. I work at a veterinary hospital in the area and recently decided to go back to school as well! I have worked as a veterinary assistant and receptionist for about 5 years and am very capable of taking care of young healthy pets as well as older pets that need more attention.

Courtney did a great job looking after my cat Smokey. She was very communicative and sent several pictures each day!
