Pet care experience
🐾 Welcome to Puppy Paradise! 🐾 Hi there! I’m Courtney, a lifelong dog lover with a cozy home that’s basically a pup’s dream getaway. If your dog stays with me, they’ll be treated like family—and they’ll have plenty of love from my two gentle, animal-loving kids who’ve grown up around pets and know how to be kind and respectful with animals. Whether your dog is a couch cuddler, a backyard zoomie master, or just needs a safe, happy place to relax—you can rest easy knowing they’re in good hands! Prefer your dog to stay in their own space? No problem! I also offer in-home care, daily check-ins, and dog walks tailored to your pet’s routine. I’m flexible and reliable, and I’ll always treat your pup like one of my own. Let me know what your dog needs—I’m here to help! 🐶 💛
Reviews
Always a pleasure to have Courtney take care of my pets. She is always so conscientious to make sure they have everything they need!
I recently lost my husband three years ago and my two Papillons are my babies. Having to leave them for a few days was really causing me anxiety. Courtney was so sweet and patient with me. She kept reassuring me that she would treat them like her own, and boy she sure did. She was so attentive with them and sent me pictures throughout the days and evenings. She has two dogs of her own and she was sweet enough to let mine sleep right along with her two in their bed. Her husband must be a saint! My babies came home just as spoiled as when I left them. I won't even consider looking for any other dog sitter. As long as Courtney is in the business my babies will stay with her and her husband. Thank you Courtney for the loving care you gave Kip and Connie. I'm not sure they wanted to come home. You're worth your weight in gold! Kip and Connie told me they loved staying with you! God Bless!
Courtney was fantastic with my babies, very detail-oriented, and kept us updated about how they were doing while we were gone. She is also super great to work with, communicates well, and I will be using her services again in the future.
I am so thankful for Courtney, she was able to watch my puppy with very late notice and took great care of him for a very long day! My Zeke loved playing with her doggys and was exhausted from all the fun! I would highly recommend her, I trust her completely with my baby!

Information Courtney W. would like to know about your pet
I want your pet to feel safe, happy, and completely comfortable—so the more I know ahead of time, the better! It’s helpful to know: • Any health issues, medications, or allergies • Feeding schedule and dietary restrictions • Energy level and favorite activities • How they do around kids, other dogs, or strangers • Any fears or triggers (like loud noises, being alone, etc.) • Crate trained? Leash reactive? Potty habits? Basically, tell me everything you think I should know! I’ll follow your instructions closely and treat your dog like one of my own 💛
A typical day
It totally depends on your dog’s vibe—whether they’re a zoomies-in-the-yard type or a snuggle-on-the-couch kind of pup! For the active ones, we’ll go on walks, play fetch, do tug-of-war, or enjoy safe, supervised backyard playtime. For the chill ones, I’m all about belly rubs, head scratches, and lounging with a cozy blanket and some treats. If your dog enjoys learning, I love practicing basic commands or little enrichment games to keep their brain engaged. And of course—lots of praise, love, and attention throughout the day. Let me know what your dog loves most, and I’ll make sure they get exactly that!

I’m currently a stay at home mom and I only work part time in the evenings so daytime and weekends are completely available. Could very much also make weekdays work after 9pm as well! I’m very flexible!
