I hired Courtney for house sitting. When the time came, she explained that she would not be staying at the house and would drop in throughout the day. I agreed that this was fine as long as she came over at least 3 times a day, and she said this was doable. I received one update a day, I didn’t think much about it and hoped for the best, but when I came home there were multiple poops upstairs indicating that my dog had been left alone for quite some time. My dog is 5 years old and can go about 12 hours in an emergency without having an accident, so this was extremely concerning. On top of that alarming result, my neighbor also reported that when she dropped off a present for us while we were gone, there were multiple people in our home that said they were “hanging out.” Courtney did not ask permission for this. Courtney does seem like a nice person, and is probably fine for an occasional one off drop in, but is not available enough or responsible enough for house sitting.

Stella had a wonderful time with Courtney! She arrived on time and was very courteous to our dog and cat! I would certainly have Courtney take care of our little ones again!
