Highlights
Pet care experience
Dependable, Reliable Animal Lover
I have volunteered at a variety of animal shelters since the age of 9. The tasks were similar at all of the shelters I had volunteered at; such as, walking, administering medication/supplements, feedings, cleaning kennels and providing all the love I can give. I have several years of experience with working with wolves and wolf dogs at a sanctuary. Therefore, analyzing and identifying animal behavior traits is something I take pride in. It’s important to know how to identify animal behavior characteristics to be able to accommodate to a pet’s specific needs. I have taken several veterinary assistant and animal classes in high school and college as well as previously worked for an animal hospital for a couple years. I have experience handling and owning horses, rabbits, turkeys, pigs, lambs, goats, dogs and cats. Therefore, no animal is too big or small for me to handle. I am very prompt, self-driven, organized and I love schedules. I have experience with dogs that are blind, deaf and that have digestive conditions. Therefore, I know the importance of making a safe environment, as well as, ensuring that they are not given any table scraps or treats that are not authorized by the owner(s). I can provide as much or as little exercise the owner would like, just be sure to let me know. I like to keep the pet’s routine as close as to what they are used to, to make their time in my home enjoyable.

Courtney is truly the best!
As always the best place for Dixie to stay. She is always so happy and they go above and beyond for her. We have started to base vacations around if Courtney is available.
Courtney was amazing to work with. My dog felt at home with her and the family.
Courtney is truly the best! Lily loves walking with her!
Courtney was fantastic! She took incredible care of my pup Benito, who got to play so much and came home completely worn out and happy. I loved getting the updates and seeing how much fun they were having. I highly recommend Courtney and will definitely book her again! Thank you so much!! 🙏❤️❤️
Courtney is always so communicative, caring, and helpful! She goes out of her way to make sure Lily is comfortable and doing okay!

Schedule
Please read the entire description for full details. I am currently home all day, so I can accommodate any and all needs that your fur baby may need. Such as, longer and more frequent walks and playtime or if they require more feedings, I’d be happy to assist, as well.

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
My dogs and cat are very well taken care of. They eat 2x a day and are able to get a couple walks in throughout the day, weather permitted. They sleep in the bed with us and are allowed on the furniture, as we treat them as part of the family. However, if you are not comfortable with this we are open to accommodations, as well.
Pets
A typical day
I love to provide stimulation for dogs, especially those that are high energy. Whether that’s fun games consisting of treats or playing fetch. I go on daily 2-3 mile runs everyday, so if your fur baby has all the energy in the world, he’s welcome to tag along. I just ask that you provide a proper harness (front lead for those that pull a lot) to ensure safety. I can provide as many walks and for however long, as you’d like. We understand that this is the best way to let go off that built up energy & it helps ground an anxious & energetic pup.
