Part-Time Teacher, FT Dog Lover

Pet care experience

Hi! My name is Courtney. I'm a part-time Spanish teacher and full-time dog lover. I adopted my first dog in 2008, and my second around 2011. If my dogs could talk, I think they would say that their favorite thing about me is how I surprise them with new toys and tasty treats from time to time. But they also enjoy taking rides in my Jeep -- a service I am happy to offer to your pooch as well. I love big dogs but I'm comfortable with any dog under 100 lbs. Any breed is fine as well, but I will admit that I have a special spot in my heart for mutts. I am available to care for your furry friend Monday through Friday, 2-8 pm, and Saturday 9 am-1 pm.

Courtney is so earnest and reliable!! She sent me pictures throughout the day on how dodger was doing and was very paitient with him when he was feeling a bit shy. Very happy! Will book with her again.

Courtney would be a GREAT dog walker or dog sitter for several reasons: 1. She loves dogs and can therefore be trusted to treat all dogs as her own. 2. She already knows how to care for dogs because she has two dogs herself. 3. She is a very reliable person who can be expected to follow through with commitments. 4. She is a very caring person. Therefore, I have no doubt that she would do everything in her power to ensure that her clients' dogs are well taken care of. At the end of the day, I would not hesitate to reach out to Courtney if I needed someone to watch or walk my dogs.

I have always had dogs. I have know Courtney all her life. Her father would not get her a dog. She would come over any chance she got to play with mine. When her father pass away. They got a dog. She was so happy. They had to stop at my house first to show off Molly. They were not apart until she had to go to collage. Molly and mom would go see her on weekends. When she moved out of the house, Molly was so sad to see her go. She is good with dogs and loves them.

She loves her dogs very much. Every time we come home she always makes sure the dogs are taken care of before anything else in the house. She loves taking them for long walks around the neighborhood or rides in the Jeep. They even have their own blanket and spot on the couches. Definitely loves playing with Buddy with his squishy toys while Molly likes to be loved on. They definitely brighten her day and she has always treated friend's dogs as her own.
