Information Courtney S. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if you have any questions! I prefer to do meet and greet for any boarding/day care services to ensure it’s a good match for both dogs!

A typical day

Day starts off w big gooooood morning stretch, followed by quick potty break bc that means breakfast comes faster! After breakfast a little walk to the park to stretch legs and get some sniffs in. Rest of day spent snuggling, chewing on toys, potty breaks as needed while I work from home. In the evening I enjoy long walks/ if your pup is energetic and up for it, enjoy an afternoon run before dinner! Later in the evening, we’ll enjoy dinner and then some decompress time w the obligatory tug of war match before night time potty breaks and bed time!

Pet care experience

I’ve had a dog(s) since childhood and don’t envision a life without one. I have volunteered with shelters ranging from domestic pets to safari animals. I have a lot of love for animals to give!

Courtney was such a lifesaver while my husband was away! She walked our dog in the cold weather without hesitation and was incredibly kind, warm, and professional throughout. Our dog usually takes a little time to warm up to new people, but he felt comfortable with her right away. I truly appreciated the peace of mind she gave us. We will absolutely be asking for her help again

Courtney was absolutely fantastic with our two cats! One of them is extremely shy, and Courtney handled her with so much patience and care—it really meant a lot. She went above and beyond to make sure both cats were comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such great hands. We would 100% trust Courtney again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an amazing pet sitter!

Courtney is the best dog mom ever! She has petsat for my husband and I dozens of times and our dogs love hanging out with her. She also has taken great care of our cats and is very communicative and responsive. She is great at dealing with reactivity in dogs too and will help you work on any tricks your dog needs. I would highly recommend her for all your petsitting needs!
