Availability
Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. Since I work from home, I’m able to give pets consistent, unrushed attention throughout the day — from walks and feedings to playtime and quiet companionship. I plan my schedule carefully so I’m never overbooked and can stay fully present, making sure each pet gets the care, consistency, and attention they’re used to. Caring for animals isn’t something I squeeze in — it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize.

Safety, trust & environment
When caring for pets in a client’s home, I tailor my approach based on the specific service and each pet’s unique needs. My priority is to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible — whether that includes feeding, walks, playtime, medication, or simply providing companionship. For drop-in visits, I focus on essentials like feeding, fresh water, bathroom breaks or litter care, and spending quality time with the pet so they feel comfortable and not alone. For longer stays or house sitting, I provide more continuous care, including walks, enrichment, maintaining routines, and being a calm, steady presence throughout the day. I also take care of the home while I’m there by doing light cleaning such as dishes, wiping counters, sweeping, tidying bathrooms, and removing bedsheets before I leave. I treat both the pet and the home with respect and attention to detail. Overall, I adapt to each situation to make sure pets feel safe, cared for, and at ease in their own environment while giving owners peace of mind.
Information Kortni E. would like to know about your pet
Before caring for any pet, I like to learn as much as possible so I can keep their routine consistent and stress-free. Important things I ask about include feeding schedules, walk routines, favorite toys and activities, and any medications or special care needs. I also like to know about their personality — whether they’re more energetic or relaxed, social or independent, and if they have any fears, triggers, or sensitivities. Understanding how they respond to new people, other animals, or certain environments helps me adjust my approach and make them feel more comfortable. For safety, I ask about things like leash behavior, escape tendencies, dietary restrictions, and emergency contacts, including their vet information. The more I know ahead of time, the better I can provide care that feels familiar, safe, and tailored to each pet’s unique needs.
A typical day
I love getting to know each pet’s personality and building activities around what makes them happiest. For dogs, that might mean fun walks, playtime with their favorite toys, a little game of fetch, or even some light training practice (with lots of praise, of course!). If they’re more laid-back, I’m just as happy to slow it down with belly rubs, cuddle time, or just hanging out together. For cats, I come prepared to earn their approval 😸 — whether that’s wand toys, laser play, or simply being a calm, respectful presence until they decide I’m worthy of their attention. If they’re playful, we play. If they prefer to supervise from a distance, I fully respect that too. I also like to mix in simple enrichment like treat games or hide-and-seek to keep things interesting and engaging. At the end of the day, I follow their lead — whether your pet is energetic, independent, or somewhere in between, I make sure they feel safe, entertained, and genuinely cared for (with a little fun along the way!).

Reviews
Kortni was very punctual, communicative, and caring for our dog Oliver (and our cat Ninja). Kortni would spend extra time with Oliver to ensure he was getting enough stimulation and attention. I can't recommend Kortni enough!
Kortni was very professional and always kept me updated with my two babies. She did constant check ups and was always on time. If she had questions she always got in contact with me to let me know what to do or what she was doing. Thanks kortni!
This was my first time using Rover, and let me just say Kortni took away all of the worries and anxiety that I had. She is truly one of a kind. She sent pictures and updates throughout the entire trip. You can see the love she has for pets! I would highly recommend her to anyone! She’s the best!
Kortni is prompt, professional, and very friendly! I am grateful to have her help :)
