Information Courtney H. would like to know about your pet

Having a sense of your dog's familiarity with commands, other dogs and people (especially small children) will go a long way to ensuring that our time together is safe and low stress. I'd also appreciate knowing where they like to be petted and what their favorite treats are if they aren't in the mood to pay attention!

A typical day

I'm familiar with dog parks and walking routes in the Cambridge/ Somerville area, and am happy to accommodate specific requests for favorite places to take your pet.

Pet care experience

My roommates and I would love to have a pet of our own, but our travel schedules make it just out of reach. When your dogs stay over at our home, they’ll enjoy tons of attention, plenty of runs and walks in the big grassy field and popular dog park steps away. You’ll get pictures and updates. I’ve lived with and cared for all types of breeds, including skittish types. I know what mayhem and joy pets can bring, and how important time outside, rain or shine, is for their health, happiness & sanity (and yours!). Our pets are members of our families and it’s my priority to keep them safe, comfortable and healthy. PS, I love cats too and will happily keep yours company!

Courtney was so responsible, sweet and caring! I was so nervous to leave for my work trip as my senior dog is very high maintenance and is on a lot of medication, but Courtney handled everything with such care and consideration. I felt so relieved to find her!

Goya seemed to really enjoy her stay with Courtney. She is a dog who really likes to be with people, and Courtney gave her lots of affection and attention. I would definitely leave my dog with Courtney again.
