Just call me the animal whisperer!
Pet care experience
I've always loved animals! I was even planning to be a veterinarian when I was younger until I found out about euthanasia & I knew I wouldn't be able to handle it. This allows me to still do what I love, which is be around animals! I professionally started caring for others' fur-babies a couple years ago. I have pet sit for people with under-active and overactive dogs. I have experience with a variety of breeds, senior & adult dogs, puppies, cats, fish, hermit crabs, bunnies, and hamsters. I've even had experience in hiding medications in food for pets to eat, administering insulin, and dogs with megaesophagus requiring the chair to sit up and eat.
Reviews
Always excellent communication from Courtney! Great experience with her doing a drop in visit for our golden.
Courtney was excellent as always! Came on time, followed instructions and left us a happy pup!
Courtney did an amazing job taking care of our cats while we were away for a week! Thank you!
Very good with the puppies! Thank you!

Skills
Safety, trust & environment
I'm all about maintaining a pet's schedule & ensuring they're comfortable; I keep up with the accuracy of when a pet normally eats or goes to the bathroom. I have no problems with mess— litterboxes, vomit, cleaning up any accidents, or vacuuming up fur! I also have my own pet sitting insurance (which I haven't had to utilize, but just as precaution). I love keeping pet parents updated, and taking videos/pictures brings me joy! I just love being able to help out and provide comfort to animals & their parents.
Information Courtney M. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know of any restrictions your animal has, if they've ever shown any aggression or have a history of biting, any medications needed to be taken, or of any known allergies. If your pet jumps over the fence often, or if they tug on a leash, that's helpful to know too!
A typical day
I'm all about having a fun & safe time with your babe(s). If they're interested in playing together, I'm more than happy to do that! I'm a big fan of playing tug-of-war. If they have guarding issues regarding toys, I'm happy to supervise them so they don't break it & swallow any pieces. I'm also okay to just laze around & cuddle. I'm accommodating toward what your pet(s) want to do!
Services
Courtney can watch in your home
Availability
I work 10am-4pm on Tuesdays, 3pm-9pm on Wednesdays & Thursdays, & 9am-5pm on Saturdays in Deptford, NJ. My job is very flexible, so if you need me to be there all day or want me to work a shorter shift, I understand & it's no problem to do so! I do need 14 days in advance to actually alter that schedule, so just let me know your preferences. Not a problem at all, but I prefer to know ahead of time before a meet for housesitting if you need me to stay the entire time (no errands, going to my retail job, or going out in general) as this rate will be higher since it's constant care! I will also unfortunately not take requests outside of New Jersey.
