Fun & High-Quality Pet Care! 🐾

Hi there, I'm Courtney! My love and compassion for animals is a central part of my identity. Rover is my full-time job right now and earning your pet’s trust is my top priority. I have a very friendly pug named Olive and an energetic dalmatian named Phoebe. They have both taken puppy classes and LOVE meeting new dogs! If you're looking for an active and playful dog-sitter, I'm your gal. My husband and I live near a long walking trail and have a fenced backyard to play fetch in. I worked as a veterinary kennel assistant for a year and have great insight when it comes to your fur babies. I take pet-sitting very seriously and promise to provide exceptional care for your dogs. If your pet has special preferences, rest assured that I will accommodate their needs. I'll also send updates and pictures for your peace of mind. My business has always revolved around helping dogs feel welcome and at ease during our time together. Care is highly personalized for every client. I go above and beyond for each animal- truly. Here are a few things I’ve done that set me apart from other Rover sitters: - always prioritizing safety, supervision, and professional communication with pet parents -preparing specialized meals for picky eaters - hand feeding nervous dogs in a private room to feel comfortable eating here - playing calm piano music to sooth anxious dogs to sleep (it works!) - giving free baths to keep dogs happy and healthy after muddy play sessions in the backyard - utilizing aromatherapy to help ease stressful separations - applying ointments to hot spots, rashes, etc. - taking sick pets to the vet on their owner’s behalf - administering medications, pills, etc. - coordinating pick ups and drop offs with other family members or friends of the family - providing clean blankets, toys, bowls, and supplies - utilizing our guest kennel to create a den for dogs who need a private place to unwind - keeping owners in the loop with highly detailed updates, including daily photos and videos - and so much more! I can't wait to meet you and your dog! Let's chat! Please note: For the safety of all parties involved, dogs MUST be friendly with others. No aggressive behavior is allowed or tolerated. All dogs must be up to date on vaccines. Meet and greets are required prior to booking with new clients. Every dog who stays here is personally vetted by me. Thank you! 🐾

Can’t rave about Courtney enough! She’s taken wonderful care or our first boy, Gus, before and took the time to make our newest pup comfortable as well. Will always trust her with care when we need it 💙

Doggy Day Care • Jul 14, 2025

Courtney has cared for Gus in the past and we trust he’s in good hands. A daycare visit to introduce our newer pup Slinky was the best idea. Courtney took her time with Slinky to be sure he grew more comfortable and I’m so impressed and appreciative! We know both boys will have a great time on longer stays 💙

My dog Zuko loved staying with Courtney for almost a week while my husband and I were on a trip. Courtney sent daily photos and videos, which let me see that Zuko was getting more and more comfortable each day - to the point where he was snuggling up with her on the sofa! When Zuko had a slight issue on his paw Courtney was quick to let me know and had some ointment on hand to make sure he healed up quickly. He needed medication on one of the days he stayed with her and she was great at communicating to me when she had given it to him. Overall Zuko and I are very happy with Courtney, and I will definitely book all of Zuko's boarding with her from now on!

Courtney was awesome with my cavalier (who can be a handful! Puppy-ish)! She sent pics and kept me updated daily on how he was doing- always fun! She is clean, attentive and sweet, definitely a dog lover - she has two of her own and they liked my guy too!! I highly recommend her!!
