Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule around each pet’s needs, making sure they get the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddle time, I enjoy building consistency and trust with every pet I care for. Their well-being is always a top priority in my day.

About Courtney J.

Dog skills
Safety, trust & environment
Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I prioritize comfort, safety, and routine. For overnight and daytime pet sitting, I make sure pets feel secure by sticking to their normal schedule—meals, walks, playtime, and downtime—just like they would with their family. I give plenty of attention, affection, and supervision, and I’m happy to accommodate any special instructions, from medication to favorite toys or routines. For dog walking, I provide safe, engaging walks tailored to each dog’s energy level and needs. I make sure they get both physical exercise and mental stimulation, and I always keep an eye on their behavior and well-being.

Reliable, Loving Care—As if my own
Pet care experience
What sets me apart is my hands-on experience and genuine love for all furry friends. I volunteered at an animal shelter from ages 16 to 19, gaining experience with pets of all ages and needs. For the past 8 years, I’ve been pet sitting for friends and family, including puppies and senior pets. I'm comfortable with medication, special routines, and providing calm, attentive care.

Courtney also cares for cats. Learn about their cat-specific care experience.
Reviews
Courtney was excellent! Will be working with her again!
Courtney is absolutely amazing with dogs! She takes such great care of them and truly treats every dog like her own. You can tell she’s very experienced, attentive, and genuinely loves what she does. My dog always comes home happy, well-exercised, and relaxed after spending time with her.
Courtney was great with Kiki! No issues!
Courtney was amazing with Frodo - he was so happy and relaxed when I got back! Thank you
