Pet care experience

Work from home, time to play!

Hi there! My name is Courtney, and I live in Bethesda, MD with my dogs Lily and Jameson! History/ Experience: I have always had pets including multiple dogs, cats, and various others. I adopted my dog Lily when she was just over 9 weeks old, and Jameson when he was 8 weeks old. It has been an amazing experience watching them grow and learn. I take great pride and joy in training and caring for my dogs, and will do the same for your dog as if he/she is our own. Who is welcome: I am comfortable caring for dogs of all ages, skill levels, energy levels, etc. However, due to having dogs of my own, I am unable to care for dogs that are not dog-friendly. I also require that the dog be UP TO DATE on flea/tick treatment and shots. I always like to do a meet and greet beforehand so our dogs can meet and get a feel for each other, as well as get some info from you about your dog. We can travel to you, but you are more than welcome to come check out our place for yourself so you know where your dog will be staying! We can also travel and meet at a park if that is preferred. We are also open to cat care if needed as well, once again as long as they are friendly with dogs. I will do whatever I can to ensure your dog has a comfortable, enjoyable stay, so you can too! I will send daily updates with photos (as many as you want) to keep you updated and feeling at ease while you're away from your pet. We look forward to hearing from you :)

Safety, trust & environment

My dogs are very active so we like to take walks, go to dog parks, hikes, etc. We are able to adjust daily routines based on your dog's individual needs, as my dogs are very easy going when it comes to activities we choose. They're happy to do almost anything. I take my dogs on at least 2 walks a day (morning and evening) if not more, but like I said adjustments can be made after we talk. I live in a townhouse with a small fenced in patio and lots of room for walks in the neighborhood. We are also right next to Cabin John dog park!

Our senior dog had a great time with Courtney and her two dogs. We’d be happy to have Courtney care for her again in the future.

Courtney is a great sitter! I have two goldens that absolutely adore her and the second overnight visit they had, they were so excited to see her and Lily that they ran straight to the back yard to play! She’s very accommodating and updates us with many photos throughout the day which we love! It makes us happy knowing our two boys are in good hands!

Courtney was less responsive than anticipated. It was our dog’s 1st stay. He stayed for 6 days. Right before we picked him up, she shared that he was scratching his belly and developed a slight rash. Upon getting him home I checked out his belly and was surprised to see how raw and red the rash was. I messaged Courtney asking her when she noticed the rash developing and also asked her why his flea collar was removed. 3 days later she has yet to respond. I also had to reach out and ask how he was settling and how he was doing overall. I won’t be using her again.

Munson had his first overnight visit with Courtney and it went great! He was excited to visit and recognized her right away. He immediately wanted to explore her home and see Lily again. I received pictures and updates and will definitely be back. Thank you, Courtney!

We are open to all friendly furry friends. No breed requirements/preferences. I do ask that you disclose any information about your pet that would help me to make their stay as great as possible. Some examples include their likes, dislikes, fears, allergies, feeding schedule, usual routine, or anything else you think is important about your furry friend!
