Information Courtney H. would like to know about your pet

This dog is very attached but I wouldn’t say special needs. My last dog hoss was special needs in the fact he had ADHD and was not happy unless he was outside. So we built him an enclosure that he loved and felt safe in. He would bite the fence before we made him that enclosure and ever since my dog prior jasmine passed he became not able to be inside without jumping or whining. It was hard dealing with him because he loved walks but would pull so hard that we called him a spider monkey because he was so low to the ground pulling and being hyper! RIP jasmine and hoss I love you both 🪽🕊️

A typical day

I wake up when my dads leaving and move to the couch with my doggy after her morning potty/breakfast (she hates being alone) we then cuddle until it’s time to get up into which we go for a walk (she’s an English bulldog so she’s not the most fond of walks but it’s healthy for her so we do them anyways!) we then wash her paws and belly with oatmeal wipes because she has skin issues! And then at night we have cheese time for her meds and have night time potties/dinner and go to bed

Courtney was very loving toward my pup . This was our first time leaving our girl as she is only five months and Courtney handled her like a pro! My girl was cared for and received all the cuddles she wanted! Courtney even went an extra mile and mopped the floors on her last day. Nothing was out of place and it's clear Courtney is an expert at the services she provides.

Courtney left the house perfectly clean after sitting for my cat for two days. She fed her and cleaned the litter box and my shy cat actually ventured out from under the couch! I hope to ask her to sit for us in the future.

This was the second of a back to back pet sitting. Courtney did another amazing job with the dogs. It is always a relief when you need to be away from home and knowing that your fur babies are being lovingly cared for. Thank you Courtney.

Courtney did a wonderful job watching our 2 fur babies for a week. She kept us updated throughout the week to let us know that they were doing well. It is a relief to know your pets are being well taken care of so you can enjoy your trip. She left the house in pristine condition when we came home and were able to rest and snuggle with the dogs when we returned.
