Home away from home

Pet care experience

I grew up on a farm so I have experience with many different kinds of animals as well as administering medications. I have also cared for my own pets from babies through the golden years. I had two cats with diabetes that required sugar tests and insulin shots. I currently have a sheltie that is high energy and loves play time.

My Rosie and Smokey enjoyed their time with Kourtney and I appreciated the care they received during the stay. Kourtney was sent pictures each day and sent a report on how the dogs were doing. They allowed the dogs to sleep with them at night, which was the dog's routine. When we arrived to pick the dogs up, they seemed very happy to see us, but not in the least distressed. We very much appreciated the care Rosie and Smokey received and will definitely contact her next time we need someone to watch the dogs. Thanks, Kourtney!

Great as always! My dog gets so excited to see her and seems a bit sad to leave - the true sign of a good pet sitter.

Kourtney was amazing - hands down one of the best Rover sitters I've used over the years. She was very attentive to Sadie's needs, extremely communicative, and flexible. She also was sure to send photo/text updates once a day. My pup came home happy and healthy! I will definitely be using her again.

Kourtney was great for a last minute day booking to watch our dog while we rode the Virginia Creeper trail. ! Nice home and fenced in yard and was sweet to our dog. Will definitely book again. Thanks!

With a fenced in yard, play time can be any time for as long as they want. There are also some nice walking areas around my home that are very low in traffic as it is usually just the fellow home owners around.

Information Kourtney E. would like to know about your pet

Please let me we know of any specific needs your dog has or behaviors that I may need to look for or attend to. I like to keep them on the schedule that they are accustomed to to mitigate stress while they are away from you.

A typical day

We can enjoy fetch or tug of war outside. If it's raining then I have a extra long hallway that is a wonderful substitute. I also find it fun to hide treats around the house to see if they can find them all.
