Safety, trust & environment

I have a large fenced yard and a neighborhood trail that many of my neighborhood clients love. Dogs are expected to sleep on a dog bed in my bedroom. Limited exceptions can be made on a case-by-case basis. I am a respected social worker in town, and giving my best to others (fur babies included) is just a part of my genetic code.

Information Courtney R. would like to know about your pet

I would appreciate knowing about any special quirks or behaviors/ needs that will require extra care, attention, or redirection. I want to know about the certain things you do or have to help your pups feel at ease in new environments. Emergency contact info is as a must.

A typical day

I love taking dogs to the dog park in town, if that’s a thing they’d enjoy. Or hitting some local trails with them. I enjoy treating each dog like they are my own and offering lots of treats for positive behaviors! Or just plan spoiling them. ;)

Soulful Puppy Care at its Finest!

Pet care experience

Been a dog lover since my wee years. Got my first pup as an adult in 2010 and realize the importance of reliable, quality pet care based on my lived experience. I can offer daily walks, dosage of medication, playtime, time at the dog park and/or on the trails, and master level cuddles! I also have 6-8 families in my neighborhood I regularly sit for throughout the year.

Courtney went above and beyond in caring for our dog, Tug. She sent pictures and videos every day. He had a minor eye problem that she communicated immediately to me. Then she drove to my house to get some meds I had for him to treat it. She also dropped him off at our house at the end of his stay. I highly recommend her. Tug got along great with her dog. He also got to snuggle with Courtney and Dax and sleep on the bed just like at home. I am very pleased with the care he recieved-really put my mind at ease as we were gone for over 2 weeks.

Courtney and her puppy made sure my ran my siberian husky was taken care of so tired at the end, which is perfect. He slept for 2 days afterwards, a vacation for us both!

Courtney and her two pups took great care of Hamish. She asked questions about what was best for him, sent me updates and pictures, and when I picked up my dog, I could tell that he was really well cared for. Thank you, Courtney
