Attentive and active sitter 🐕❤️
Pet care experience
Experienced with a variety of dogs (and cats). I have a very active pup of my own and love to keep all furbabes exercised and mentally stimulated. I can be consistent with any training preferences that you have as I know how important it is. I take manners very seriously and am gentle yet firm. My schedule is fairly flexible and I have a car so if needed am covered in an emergency and of course for spontaneous hikes (if permitted). Our backyard is fully fenced, we have a baby pool and infinite toys to share. There is no such thing as a weird request for our little fur babies so please ask away and I will do my very best to accommodate. ** Boarding requests please note ** New clients looking to board for 2+ nights MUST book a min of one doggy day care session prior to stay. A meet and greet simply does not provide the proper insight needed to ensure a proper fit for an extended period of time. *The doggy day care session will be discounted.* Thank you for your understanding. I look forward to meeting you and my newest fur friend ❤️

Rocco couldn’t have been with anyone better. Thank you for being so patient with him. We will sure rebook with you!
Awesome sitter! Made sure Marley got enough exercise -- he came back happy and tired and slept through the rest of evening. Courtney was super accommodating with our time and sent many cute videos of our pup. Would recommend!
Courtney is the best! She’s very flexible and understanding. You can tell by how well behaved Arlo is that she’s put a lot of love and time into raising him. I would recommend her. We’ll definitely be using her services in the future.
Courtney is THE BEST dog sitter! She takes the best care of Marlowe, sends lots of photos and updates, and I know she takes care of Marlowe like he’s her own dog. Courtney took Marlowe on lots of adventures and he came back a happy and tired dog. Highly recommend.

Safety, trust & environment
I have a fenced yard and wonderful roommates who also love dogs. This is especially helpful because that means more eyes on your pet ensuring their safety. I set timers for potty breaks and separate dogs during meal times for extra precaution
Home
Information Courtney L. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your dog has a schedule I can follow (ie. meals, walks, bathroom, nap, play etc). If you're comfortable with your dog attending a dog park or off leash hike/play area. If there are any kind of food they can't eat (I like to have a surplus of freeze dried chicken on hand for our doggy dates). If there are any behavioral challenges to be aware of (ie. barking, nipping, resource guarding etc).
A typical day
I like to provide a tour of the house and yard to get the doggies situated. After a little bit of play time indoors we like to get out and hit the dog park or play fetch in the nearby field. There is also a short trail close by that we love to explore with new fur friends. When possible we head to Pacific Spirit to get a longer experience with nature. Once we get home it could be meal time or nap time or training /games time depending on the mood.

Availability
I am 80% self employed so I can adjust commitments with proper notice. I am usually available for boarding with advanced notice (I usually recommend 3 weeks min). My schedule does fill up quickly so the more notice the more likely I'll be able to reserve the time to diligently care for your pet.
