Pet care experience
8 minuets from Great Wolf Lodge🐺🌸
Hi! I’m Courtney, and I have over 15 years of experience working with animals. I’m a former veterinary nurse, licensed, fully insured, and certified in pet CPR and first aid. I offer full-time dog boarding exclusively from my home, and since I’m home full-time, dogs receive constant supervision, frequent potty breaks, structured playtime, and lots of one-on-one attention throughout the day. My home has a fully fenced-in backyard for safe outdoor play, and I focus on creating a calm, comfortable, and enriching environment for every dog in my care. I provide enrichment options like bully sticks, long-lasting chews, frozen bones, stuffed Kongs, puzzle toys, and interactive toys to help keep dogs mentally stimulated and happy. Dogs also have access to plenty of comfy beds, blankets, toys, and snuggles so they can truly feel at home while they’re here. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, loved, comfortable, and well cared for during their stay. A quick reminder for pet parents Under Massachusetts Ollie’s Law, anyone providing overnight dog boarding is required to obtain a kennel license through their city or town as either a Residential Kennel or Commercial Kennel. Before booking with any sitter, it’s worth asking if they are properly licensed and insured. Choosing a licensed kennel like me helps ensure you’re leaving your dog with someone who meets local requirements and is committed to providing safe, responsible care.

Ratings and reviews
Kourtney was so incredibly kind and helpful with taking our Nellie girl last minute. She immediately made Nellie feel welcomed and safe, introduced her slowly to the other furry friends, and eased my worried heart by sending updates and photos regularly. We are so grateful to have found Kourtney and are looking forward to working with her again in the future!
Kourtney was great about sending updates and pictures of my puppy! Every time it looked like my dog was having the time of her life!
Kourtney took in our pup Curly for a couple days… she was very communicative and took amazing care of Curly…. We will definitely use her in the future
She was amazing with our dog and took a last minute booking from us. I was hesitant because this was the first time we had ever left our dog with someone other than family. From the moment I dropped him off I knew he was in good hands. Great communication and wonderful experience. Will be using again in the future.
Overall , I think Jasper had a good time with Kourtney. We got a couple photos over the weekend and he looked happy. He was exceptionally thirsty after our 20 min ride home so that was concerning to me. It was hot out but I've never seen him drink so much water.
Kourtney was wonderful! Her skills and experience helped us to feel confident leaving our dog in her care. She was friendly and prompt in all of our communication. She sent daily photos/videos, which our family loved to see while on vacation. We will definitely be booking with Kourtney again in the future!

Schedule
Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I’m home full-time. This allows me to provide consistent supervision, frequent potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day.

Safety, trust & environment
Safety is my top priority, and all interactions are carefully supervised. When pets cannot be directly supervised, they are safely separated to ensure everyone remains comfortable and secure.

A typical day
A typical day includes plenty of exercise, enrichment, and relaxation. Dogs enjoy the fenced in backyard, playtime, games, and enrichment activities like snuffle mats and puzzles.
