Dependable and compassionate
Pet care experience
From the age of 5 until 18, I took care of dogs of my own; I was involved in training, care (including walks, feeding, and grooming), and basic medical maintenance (providing preventative healthcare and checking up on any discomfort the dogs were demonstrating). After going away to college, I've volunteered as a dog walker at Sean Casey Animal Rescue in Brooklyn as well as at an ASPCA animal rescue shelter in Manhattan. I've been a dog-sitter in the past, stopping in as many as 6 times per day for one particular case (the dog was elderly and needed to receive much more care than the average dog) and tending dogs with separation anxiety. I've been around animals my entire life, and I understand the respect and care necessary to keep our canine friends happy.
Reviews
Courtney was wonderful! She dropped in to check on my cat, just feeding and playing, for two days while I was away for the holidays, and sent me pictures of him while she was with him. He warmed up to her quickly, and it was nice to know I didn't have to worry about him. I will definitely be relying on Courtney again in the future.
Courtney has experience with dogs and has lived with dogs her entire life. She is comfortable with them, is confident and capable of taking proper care of any breed of dog, large or small. She knows how to treat any animal with kindness and how to provide care to keep them safe. I highly recommend her services.
Courtney is warm, friendly, and fun to be around. She's a good problem solver, and is reliable above all else. She could have her leg chopped off and still show up for work. Courtney is a scheduler, always thinking ahead, planning and anticipating problems, but with dogs it's clear that time stands still. She is caring and playful with them. And that care extends beyond the dogs that are perfectly attractive and friendly. She's just as likely to love the mangey mutt as the competition purebred. This girl can take on the world— she could definitley help a difficult dog. I don't think I'm exaggerating when I say she's well loved by those who know her. Having had the opportunity to work with her, to go to school with her, and to be her friend, I have seen her in no small variety of situations and she remains dedicated and hard working. She remains engaging and attentive. She remains dependable, across situations, across circumstance. I would be crazy if I thought she wouldn't be perfect for your dog as well.
I've known Courtney for many years, and the compassion and intelligence she demonstrates when handling animals is insurmountable. She is a very active individual, and so perfect for walking dogs of any energy level! She once pet-sat for me while I was on vacation for a week and I swear my dog was more sad to see her leave than he was happy to see me come back!
