Active and passionate dog lover!
Pet care experience
I have a dog of my own, a 2 y/o Italian greyhound mix named Mina. She is very timid but she loves other dogs once she calms down. I also had a blind, senior schnauzer named Scamp, so I know lots about both puppies and senior dogs requiring both oral and injected medications. I have been pet-sitting/house-sitting since I was 18, and currently am running a dog sitting service in my neighborhood community, Cameron Court, which has an amazing dog park. I love dogs and I promise I will make sure your pup has the best time. I am very flexible, as I am a graduate student pursuing my doctorate in clinical psychology. Right now, I only have one 3 hour class per day, Tuesday-Thursday. I’d love to meet you and your pup!
Reviews
Courtney is a gem! She took our two dogs, an old rescue and a young pedigree, over a long weekend and she treated them like her own! She allowed them to get on her couch and stay in her bedroom overnight so they would feel loved and at home! She took them on long walks and to the Dog Park as well. They enjoyed playing with her sweet dog as well. We will definitely be using Courtney again!
I couldn't recommend anyone more than Courtney to watch your dog! And even your home. She is very attentive, caring and detailed oriented. She treats my dog as her own, and when I leave for work or let her house sit , I feel at ease knowing my dog is in great hands. Courtney is very smart and extremely reliable , and most important, my dog always runs to her. A sure sign my boy loves her.

Information Courtney O. would like to know about your pet
I have no breed preferences, I would just prefer a non-aggressive dog. If I were to house sit your dog at my own home, I prefer smaller dogs and dogs that are friendly towards other dogs since I have dogs of my own.
A typical day
Depending on where you live, I would be more than willing to find nearby parks or ponds to take your pup to! I will endlessly play fetch or tug-of-war with your dog, and will scratch his or her favorite places until he/she is too tired to move. My dog also loves massages, so I would definitely give your dog one too!
