They’ll be sad when I leave. 😍

Pet care experience

My whole life I’ve been around animals--there's been a dog by my side everyday (and when lucky, horses, cows, llamas, everything! ... I even went to snake camp as a kid... so... obviously I’m broken) Anyways, they love me, I love them, we just get each other. I’m a big fan of structure and pups knowing rules. But I’m also a huge proponent of pups getting great play time and having fun (in a safe environment!)! When I was hanging out at a brewery one time, I taught a random couple’s dog sit and down... True story. I also may have sat on the floor of said brewery for longer than I should have. But who cares about socializing with humans when there are fur babies I can hang out with!? (I did have a sit down convo with the four legged goober when he tried to follow me out) I love a good game of tug-of-war and hiking adventures... or just hanging out all day on the couch! Just let me and your BFF meet and you’ll see there’s nothing to worry about! I work from home 80% of the time and am always looking for an excuse to stop in order to go play outside! For now, I am not sitting in my home. However, I’m the best house/pet sitter. (Taught to clean sheets and leave everything better than you found it, kind of person!) I do have a goldendoodle, Bayleigh (yes, I hate that I’m that person that spelled her name wrong, but if we meet in person I’ll explain why).... all she wants is to have other doggos play with her and to make mama happy (sometimes these conflict... and her love for playtime typically wins... especially when working on our therapy dog training! 😂) Eiger is a Belgian Malinois/German Shepard. But don’t let that scare you. He has four brain cells and flunked out of “big boi doggo camp.” He loves literally everything and everyone. And will spend 7 hours jumping straight up to reach a rope on a branch. Even when I stood on the electric box to put it there and he could easily get to it. Monica is the “happy accident”… bayleigh and Eiger were to be neutered/spayed the next week. But bayleigh went into heat. I told my husband to keep them apart. I was gone 5 minutes before I got a phone call. So she is the weirdest mix of the two breads ever. How does she have terrier fur!?

Courtney did a great job with my Greyhound! She made sure to keep me updated regularly and made the process very smooth and easy.

Courtney sat for our 5 dogs when we visited S.D. on vacation. She came to our campground and sat with them in our RV two different days so we could go sightseeing. She did amazing! My shy dog warmed right up to her. My scared dog took comfort in having her there. My others were fully entertained and exercised with her because she taught them tricks, took them for walks and played with them. I wish we could take Courtney with us across country. She is amazing. She sent text updates and photos and seemed fully capable and confident which set my mind at ease to leave her here with them in the RV for so many hours.

Courtney was just the perfect person with whom to leave our poodle for two days.

Courtney has been walking my 10 month old Schnoodle Oshie for almost 4 months 3x a week. My pup loves her and she is reliable and always attentive to her clients, ensuring the best care for you and your dog! I highly suggest hiring Courtney if you want a walker/sitter who will treat your dog like he/she is her own!

Information Courtney J. would like to know about your pet

Anything and everything! I love getting a “How To” email or doing a meet and greet before I start sitting. But I also can figure it out if you have to run out of town last minute! I have no breed preferences, just be honest with me about your pup’s strengths and weaknesses and we'll do great! I can handle A LOT. But I like to be prepared :) Oh! I do send out a questionnaire to all my clients that covers the majority of the basics. I like that to be filled out beforehand and if I have any additional questions, I'll certainly let you know. If you have any questions for me, please don't hesitate to ask!

A typical day

Your pup will have at least 3 walks/day of course! Cuddles and afternoon nap time! Several rounds of fetch! And maybe save the world... or maybe just learn a trick or two. Who knows what we can get done in one day!

I am in Spokane—near Manito Park. We just moved here and I am at home full time. Whatever you need, I can accommodate! We do have pets, so if my husband is out of town, I cannot house sit.
