Experienced Dog Sitter/ Walker Looking To Make A Long Lasting Career And Friendships
I have mostly enjoyed in-home pet care as well as trail walks with more than one dog, however, I have had an occasional independent dog that prefers to walk alone. I'm grateful to my mom and the other pet services for the knowledge and experience that I've gained from being a part of her team.

Courtney was wonderful with my 2 parrots, one of whom is very demanding. Their care is rather involved, and she did so well with both of them. She also stayed in my own and definitely took good care of it. I will definitely be using her again soon and would highly recommend her pet care services.
