Highlights
Pet care experience
Lover of Dogs
In 2006, my family adopted an Old English Sheepdog, Zoey. We got Zoey when she was a puppy, and she lived to be 9 before she passed away. In 2013, my dad and step-mom adopted an Australian Shepherd puppy, Molly. Molly was very high energy and needed a job to do, which was stressful for my step-mom so after Zoey passed away, my mom, my sisters, and I had Molly come live with us. Molly was with me for all walks of life, and we lived together just me and her for the past 6 years. As Molly had gotten older, her arthritis became a big deterrent for us, and we adapted as best we could to make her as happy and comfortable as possible. In the years after college, I dog-sat for my family friends and my own friends when they'd travel. It was always enjoyable and a good way to hang out with some pretty cool dogs! They came in all shapes, sizes, and ages! With Maddy the shitzu being 17 and Banor the German Shepherd being almost a year.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
I care for pets by creating a safe environment for them. I always double-check to make sure nothing is on the floor that they could get into. Pushing things back on the counter in case they jump. And making sure they get extra pets before leaving them to go to work.
Ratings and reviews
Courtney communicated very well before, during and after the recent house sitting booking. She was very responsive and was flexible to the requirements of Hank. I would recommend Courtney and would plan to book her to take care of Hank again in the future.
Courtney was great! She took amazing care of our sweet old dog. He required daily medication and some extra attention which she was happy to give him. We’d definitely use her again
Fantastic as always!
Courtney provided dog sitting and housesitting services for me. She was great with my Sheppard!! She also kept the house in neat order and provided plenty of love to my dog. I will definitely use her again!!
Oakley seemed to be well taken care of, the house was looking good, and had easy communication throughout our vacation away from home!
Rusty seemed very happy on his walk and in good spirits when we got back! They took a great stroll and the pictures were really sweet! Courtney even hung out with our pup a little while after to make sure he hadn’t overheated on a very hot day. We’ll definitely have her back.

Schedule
I've always had pets, so taking care of them has always been a priority for me. It's truly muscle memory at this point. I get up and immediately go to take my dog outside. Before going to bed, I allot 20 extra minutes to take my dog outside. It's second nature.
