Safety, trust & environment

I want you to be comfortable while you’re away and I will make sure your pet is comfortable too. I understand it can be uncomfortable to let a sitter into your home. I promise to treat your home with respect. I log my visits in the Rover cards so that you know when I am entering and exiting your home. I send lots of pictures so that you feel as though you are there with me and your pet.

Information Courtney S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if there is anything I can do to make your pet more comfortable with me. I can avoid eye contact or can give treats. Please let me know if your pet likes to chew or scratch things so that I can plan accordingly. Give me some tips and tricks on making your pet happy!

A typical day

I will give your dog plenty of butt scratches and tummy rubs. If your pet bring me a toy, I will happily obey their request to play.

Pet care experience

Hi! I’ve been on Rover for over 4 years now and have enjoyed meeting new people and new pets. I’ve owned cats and dogs myself and have always been happy to help my neighbors with their furry friends. I’ve fostered kittens for a local animal shelter. I understand it can be stressful for both you and your pet to need a sitter. I am dedicated to making the process as smooth as possible. I will treat your pet and your home with the utmost respect.

Courtney was so sweet with our puppy -- she spent extra time with her and sent along great videos. She was super flexible and easy to work with, even though we were a bit last minute. We'll certainly ask her to help out again! Thank you!

Courtney was excellent. Kept me informed and was timely with visits and reports. One dog was a bit sick before we left and Courtney took good care of him. Happy dogs, happy life.

We had a fantastic experience with Courtney. My dog absolutely LOVED her! She was reliable, playful and so caring with our boy. Her updates were so thorough so we always knew how things were going throughout the day which made us feel so comfortable while we were away. Highly recommend her and will use her again in the future!

Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass an identity verification. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
