Availability
I work from home Monday–Friday, which gives me some flexibility during the day for drop-in visits and pet care. I have the most availability after 5 PM on weekdays and on weekends. I’m also available for overnight stays in my clients’ homes, since I live in an apartment and am not offering boarding in my own home.

Safety, trust & environment
I care for pets in their own home so they can stay in a familiar, comfortable environment. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions for feeding, medications, litter boxes, walks, playtime, and routines. I always make sure doors are secure, pets have fresh water, and their space is clean and safe before I leave. I’m also happy to send updates and photos so you know your pets are doing well.
Information Courtney H. would like to know about your pet
I take a detail-oriented approach to care, so it’s important to understand your pet’s routine, personality, and any specific needs ahead of time. This includes feeding schedules, medications, allergies, behavioural tendencies, and how they respond to new people. The more information you can share, the better I can provide consistent, safe, and personalised care.
A typical day
I structure each visit around your pet’s established routine, so they feel secure and comfortable while you’re away. This includes feeding on schedule, refreshing water, and making sure they get the right balance of activity, attention, and rest. For dogs, that may include walks, outdoor time, and play tailored to their energy level. For cats, I focus on enrichment, litter maintenance, and interaction at their comfort level. I also take time to observe behaviour, appetite, and overall well-being to ensure everything is consistent and on track. I tailor activities to each pet’s personality and preferences. For dogs, this can include structured walks, playtime like fetch or tug, and engaging outdoor time. For cats, I incorporate interactive play, enrichment toys, and calm companionship for those who prefer a quieter approach. My goal is to keep pets mentally and physically engaged while also making sure they feel relaxed and cared for.

Reliable, Experienced Pet Sitter
Pet care experience
I’ve had animals my entire life and genuinely enjoy caring for them like they’re my own. Right now, I have two cats who are my baby boys, so I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets and their routines. I’m comfortable with a wide range of animals and personalities—from high-energy dogs to more independent or shy pets—and I always take the time to make them feel safe and cared for. I’m very detail-oriented and reliable, especially when it comes to following feeding schedules, routines, and any special instructions. I know how important consistency is for pets, and I make that a priority.

Reviews
Courtney did a great job taking care of my cats. I have one cat who is an escape artist, so I was very nervous he might get out. But Courtney was very careful, and there were no issues. I have been searching for a cat sitter that I can trust and feel comfortable with. I can say, I will definitely hire Courtney for our next vacation.
Courtney is a kind, reliable, and genuinely caring person who I would absolutely trust with pets. I have a husky mix named Oreo, and even though Courtney hasn't officially pet-sat for me, I've seen how loving and attentive she is with animals. She is responsible, patient, and has a natural warmth that pets respond to. I would feel very comfortable recommending Courtney to anyone looking for someone trustworthy to care for their furry family members.
Courtney has been helping take care of my cat Hamlet, and I truly can’t say enough good things about her. It’s clear right away how much she genuinely loves animals, and that makes all the difference. Hamlet can be a bit particular, but he warmed up to Courtney quickly because of how calm, patient, and attentive she is. She takes the time to understand his routine and personality, and I always feel confident that he’s in great hands when she’s with him. She’s reliable, communicative, and treats Hamlet like he’s her own. It gives me real peace of mind knowing he’s being cared for by someone who truly cares. I would absolutely recommend Courtney to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter.
