Availability
Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’m a full‑time freelancer with a very flexible schedule. I’m available every day between 8 AM and 11 PM, and I can easily adjust my day to meet your pet’s needs—whether that’s a morning walk, a midday check‑in, or an evening visit. My open schedule also allows me to accommodate last‑minute bookings, so you can count on me even when plans change unexpectedly.

About Kortnei K.

Safety, trust & environment
When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I stick to the routines your cats and dogs already know so they feel secure and comfortable. I follow your feeding, walking, play, and litter box instructions, keep their spaces clean, and make sure your home stays tidy and secure. I’m attentive to each pet’s personality—whether that’s a shy cat, an energetic dog, or anything in between—and I work to make every visit calm, safe, and stress‑free.
Information Kortnei K. would like to know about your pet
Please let me know if your cat or dog has any medical needs, allergies, or dietary restrictions so I can keep them safe and comfortable. I’m experienced with medication administration to both cats and dogs—including getting creative with hiding pills for the picky ones. It’s also helpful to know about your pet’s personality—whether your cat prefers quiet companionship or your dog needs slow introductions, or if either has specific fears, routines, or quirks. Understanding these details helps me tailor my care to what makes them feel secure and happy.
A typical day
Every pet has their own idea of a perfect day, and I follow their lead. For dogs, that might mean a nice long walk, a game of fetch, or a puzzle toy like a frozen peanut‑butter Kong or a snuffle mat for some sniff‑and‑forage fun. For cats, I love offering enrichment that fits their style—wand toys for playful hunters, treat puzzles for curious minds, or quiet companionship for cats who prefer a calm presence. With parental consent, I’m a fan of treating them to a pup cup now and then for an extra dose of happiness. Whether it’s active play or peaceful downtime, I make sure every pet feels engaged, comfortable, and content throughout the day.

Your pet’s favorite sitter!
Pet care experience
I’ve cared for dogs since I was 12 and have been pet and house sitting for the last 10 years. I love taking energetic pups on long walks or playing fetch in a secure yard, and I’m equally comfortable creating cozy spaces for senior dogs. I have two dogs of my own (one large, one medium), and I’m experienced with administering medications—even to picky ones who need a creative touch. I’ve volunteered at animal shelters off and on since 2020 and have worked with reactive and anxious dogs who may require extra time to warm up to strangers. I love spending time with both dogs and cats, and making them feel safe, happy, and loved.

Reviews
Kortnei K. cancelled a booking 1 day before it was scheduled to begin.
She was personable, friendly and efficient My dogs love her and roll over for pets as soon as she walks in. Takes care of my pets like they are her own, make sure they have water and stay hydrated here in Florida! Spoils with treats & back rubs! I would book with her again & again!
Kortnei was absolutely amazing taking care of our senior German shepherd and 2 cats. We generally have a sitter we use but he was unavailable and I was struggling to find someone who can help and stay in our home comfortably and without question on how our furbabes would be treated. Kortnei exceeded our expectations with updates and pictures. She was able to leave at anytime but stayed with them most of the time because she knows when we are home we don't leave often so that is what they are used to. We will continue to use Kortnei for any future trips after seeing how well she took care of the animals and our home.
Kortnei is my daughter and she has owned and been completely in love with her dog Princess since she was 12 years old. We got her this dog to teach her responsibility (and because she’d been asking for one for a while) and since then she has been diligent, caring, nurturing and everything we could ask for with her dog. She puts love into everything she does and she honors and respects the trust her friends have afforded her through the years with their pets. I have no doubt that your pet will feel the same love from her just as the animals do at the shelter where she volunteers. I trust my daughter will be an amazing asset to your family. I would bet my life on it.
