Large fenced yard, big animal lover
Pet care experience
*** I will not be able to accept any requests this summer, I am up in Grand Forks for school. Sorry for an inconveniences *** I'm an animal lover through and through. I have never not had a dog in my house growing up and I have been dog sitting for the past few years. I love to teach them fun new tricks to keep them active, engaged, and healthy. I train humanly with no uses of choke, prong, or shock collars. Instead relying on rewards with treats and belly rubs along with the trust and bond formed between human and dog. As well as training I like talking long walks and exploring with a fur-buddy. I have experience with all types of dogs, ranging from puppy to elder, small dogs like shih tzu to giant dogs like Anatolian shepherds, cuddly dogs to hyper dogs. I am able to train or give oral medications as needed, and I will brush and bathe if requested. I work 11-4 every other Saturday, and I have class for 4 hours every day during the week, otherwise i'm usually at home. I also love cats and am able to work with them or other caged animals (rabbits, fish, turtles, etc.) if need be and have worked some with chickens, horses, cows, and pigs.
Reviews
Courtney is a great good sitter. I have used her services a few times, and will continue in the future.
I was a little nervous leaving Roscoe with a sitter because we have never left him with anyone before but Courtney was great. My dog was happy to see me at pickup but seemed really at home and comfortable with and at Courtney’s place. Thank You Courtney :)
Courtney was great with Libby!! She made us feel at ease with updates and I know Libby loved her time there and enjoyed making new friends! Will be back!!
Courtney was great and very receptive to all of the information I gave on my dog, Huck. She made sure to get the details on his care and preferences before I left him with her. Courtney even let me personally walk him around her house to get acquainted which I greatly appreciated. I definitely recommend Courtney as she was very flexible and my dog loved his stay with her!

Information Courtney U. would like to know about your pet
I need to know if they are up to date on all their shots, if they are potty trained, and if they are good around other dogs and cats. Any breed is accepted.
A typical day
I have a large fenced in yard that I can train or play chase, catch or fetch in. I live on a gravel road that has minimal to no traffic that I can walk around in. If I run any errands I will take them along for the ride. Given the dog likes water and I have enough time, I love taking them to the lake for a swim. A car ride and a walk around Wylie park is also a fun way to spend some quality time. And of course I will give them lots of love, ear scratches, and belly rubs!
