Pet care experience

Courtney U., CPDT-KA Originally from Long Island, New York, I relocated to California in 2017 to pursue a career with Canine Companions. I train service dogs to enhance the lives of people with disabilities, and I am grateful that my path in life has led me to improving the lives of both dogs and their humans. I have loved dogs my entire life - my family's dogs, my friend's dogs, and now through my partnership with Rover, I get to love *your* dogs as well. All breeds, shapes, sizes, and personalities - you name it, I love them. I've had dogs my entire life (Maxie, boxer; Mya, shepherd mix; Coco and Bennie, Maltese siblings; and now currently Kiva, a Formosan Mountain Dog rescued from Taiwan, & Desmo, a boxer mix from New York) and I love caring for, working with, and training them. Kiva and Desmo are two of the most important parts of my life, and I understand that *your* dog is one of the most important parts of your life as well. It's my job to make your pet feel safe, loved, happy, and comfortable.

Courtney is wonderful, reliable, and responsible. We valued her professionalism and ability ability to communicate. Not only was she responsive, but we regularly received updates and most important to us she asked questions when she had them. Our fur family was happy, healthy, and playful upon our return, and the house was as clean and in order as we left it. Thanks to Courtney, we feel comfortable and confident that we can relax when we get away. Have already booked again.

We appreciate Courtney's patience while our dogs acclimated during her stay. She was in contact and brought any concerns and wins to our attention, which is appreciated. After 9 days away, we returned home as if we just left! Spotless and happy pets :) Thanks again Courtney!

Georgie is ready to rock n’roll just before Courtney shows up. My 10 year old Lab is crazy about walking with her. She’s calm, ready for his antics & makes me confident she’s in control & showing him a great time. After each walk, he comes back ready to have a snooze before the next happening!

Courtney was absolutely perfect. Abby is somewhat anxious to begin with due to our recent move from the only home she has ever known. She was further anxious due to an injury the day before my trip requiring an ambulance and emergency personnel carrying me out of our home. Courtney took great care of my precious Abby in spite of my cat's anxious attitude. I will for sure use her again. Thank you Courtney.

Safety, trust & environment

My background in professional dog training means that I understand each dog is a unique individual. If your dog is nervous around new people, easily excitable, or just a well-rounded lovebug, I will match your dog's energy and give them whatever they need to feel safe and comfortable with me.

Information Courtney U. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know if any of the below applies to your dog: - Food sensitivities or allergies - Fear, nervousness, or anxiety - Reactive to other dogs on walks - Their favorite toy, snack, or game The more you share about your pup, the better experience I'll be able to give them! I appreciate going in to a meet and greet where the guardian has already given me a bit of information on who their dog is. :)

A typical day

Your dog will set the pace for our walks. Man on a mission trying to get his steps in? Great! We can power walk the entire time. A scenic sniffer who likes to stop and sniff every bush and tree? That's fine by me - I love a good sniffari. While we're walking, I do my best to capture cute photos and videos to send along so you can relax knowing your pup is enjoying himself.
