Stride & Joy Dog Walks and Pet Care

Pet care experience

I worked at a local animal rescue for many years. I’ve walked and cared for hundreds of dogs and fostered dozens of cats in my home. From puppies, kittens to seniors and everything in between! Each pet is unique and has different needs, and I can read their body language to give them what they need to feel happy and safe in my presence. I’m an active, outdoorsy and passionate animal lover who will treat your pet like my own. I also love to take candid photos of pets!

Our pup had a great stay with Courtney while we were away. She gave updates and sent pics which we loved. I highly recommend her for pet sitting.

Safety, trust & environment

While your dog stays with me, they will be treated like a part of the family. I enjoy being outside, taking walks and including the dogs in all our activities when appropriate. Our home is quiet and peaceful, set back from the road and surrounded by trees. I have plenty of sunny spots to nap in and a deck to enjoy in the summertime. I love to host senior dogs! I have a large yard and a friendly small dog who will help keep your pup company. I can also use a crate if needed. I will spoil your babies and help them feel safe and loved in your absence.

Information Courtney V. would like to know about your pet

I prefer to set up a meet and greet for all new clients so I can get to know your pet's unique needs! We'll cover medical/behavior issues, limitations, boundaries, triggers, and favorites (treats, walks, toys).

A typical day

I live very close to a local park that is dog friendly! There are many miles to safely explore together. I also have a large collection of dog toys and always have treats in pocket!!
