Courtney's Ann Arbor/Ypsi Pet Care

Pet care experience

I am so excited to meet your purrrfect pets in the Ann Arbor and Ypsilanti Area! I am a highly motivated and passionate animal care provider and sitter with over 7 years of experience in direct animal care and over 20 years of experience living with and caring for pets of my own. I have experience caring for cats and dogs of all ages and needs, including neonatal and geriatric. I am comfortable administering topical ointments, flea preventatives, ear drops, eye drops, oral medication, and pills, and am happy to learn from you how to administer any other medications your cat may need (insulin injections, diabetic management, and subcutaneous fluids). My years as a regular animal care volunteer with my local animal shelter and animal care provider for clients in my local community trained and prepared me to provide the utmost care and love to others’ fur babies of all kinds, training-level, behavioral spectrums, ages, and sizes. I bottled-fed and cared for my own cat Moosh from when he was 2 weeks old and have trained him to perform over 40 tricks in the last year (he is very cute, too!). I am confident in my abilities to care for animals with all kinds of needs and do so even under high-stakes situations while remaining calm. I am excited about the opportunity to provide excellent cat care to my clients as I care for my own. I recently graduated from the University of Michigan with my J.D. and M.S.W degree and currently teach at the University of Michigan Law School. I live on the east side of Ann Arbor and have a flexible schedule so please do not hesitate to reach out!

Courtney took great care of my elderly kitty and kindly followed my overly specific instructions to the T! I would highly recommend her and can attest that she’s a true animal lover!

Courtney did a great job taking care of our two cats for the weekend! She was highly communicative and we appreciated the many updates during the visit, including photos and videos of our cats. When we got home, our cats seemed like we had only been away to run a quick errand. We came home to two happy cats who seemed like they had a great time making a new friend. We’ll definitely be looking to hire Courtney again in the future!

Courtney was great! She was prompt, communicative, and thoughtful. Her updates (including cute photos) made us feel so much better about leaving our sweet kitty behind. 10/10 would book again.

Courtney was FANTASTIC!!! Super responsible, completely reliable, and kept us updated at least twice daily with pictures about how our dog Arlo was doing. Couldn’t recommend her highly enough. She seems to genuinely like taking care of pets and Arlo clearly felt very relaxed and happy in her company.

A typical day

For dogs, I love heading out to the park or playing fetch in the backyard! Whatever works best for your pup. I love playing with and cuddling up to cats, matching their comfort level. I’m also happy to engage in some light training (trick), if that’s something you’d like!
