Highlights
Pet care experience
Experience from Puppies to Seniors
Hi! I'm a lifelong dog lover with hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and energy levels. I share my home with two pups — one young and playful, the other older and more relaxed — so I’m comfortable meeting dogs where they are, whether they need high-energy play or quiet companionship. I grew up on a farm surrounded by animals, and caring for them has always come naturally. With a sister who’s a veterinary technician, I’ve also picked up practical knowledge about handling medications, watching for health concerns, and staying calm in unexpected situations.

Safety, trust & environment
Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, their safety and comfort always come first. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, needs, and personality so they feel secure and at ease. I provide a calm, clean environment, follow all care instructions closely, and build trust through gentle handling and consistency.
Ratings and reviews
Courtney Z. cancelled a booking 3 days before it was scheduled to begin.
We had an amazing experience with Courtney! She took excellent care of our two dogs, with the perfect amount of communication/updates along the way. It means a lot to have someone you can trust like that and we look forward to working with her again.
We couldn't have been happier with the care and love Courtney showed for our Maximus during his recent week-long stay with her. I was particularly impressed with her attention to detail in providing us with daily video updates. We will definitely be requesting her services again in the future, and recommend her highly.
Courtney is always fantastic! Hyde was well taken care of and happy to be with his friends Bella and Maggie.
Our pup is high energy and even higher anxiety. It is very hard for us to find someone we feel confident can handle our pup but Courtney went out of her way to help him and us feel at ease before we even left him with her. She was so amazing!!! He absolutely loved being with her and we were so relieved! Would recommend Courtney to anyone, she went above and beyond for us!
Courtney is super friendly and great with cats and dogs! She stopped by on short notice to check on our pets while we were out, and was super responsive and communicative. I would definitely recommend her for any pet sitting in the future!
Calendar and availability
Schedule
I’m home most of the day, so I can keep your dog’s routine consistent. We start with a morning walk, followed by playtime in our fenced yard, meals, and rest periods. I’m flexible and can adjust to your dog’s needs, whether they’re active, laid-back, or somewhere in between.
