About Courtney

Looking to go on vacation, but you don't want to send your pets to a boarding facility? Let me take care of Fido, Garfield, and Tweety-Bird while you're away! I am an experienced animal caretaker with a passion for all animal species. I have over 15 years of experience working with a wide array of domestic animals, including dogs, cats, horses, cattle, birds, reptiles, and small mammals, as well as a multitude of wildlife species. I have a Bachelor of Science degree in Zoology, and was raised in a veterinarian's home. I previously worked as an Animal Technician in a veterinary hospital and I am licensed as a wildlife rehabilitator in the state of Wisconsin. I am skilled in many basic medical tasks, including administration of both oral medication and injections. I am willing to stay in your home in order to ensure your pet's utmost comfort, and can occasionally care for your pet in my own home while you are away (determined on a case by case basis). I'm available for hire in the Minocqua area (15 mile radius of town). Service rates depend on animal species, number of animals in home, amount of care necessary and other factors. I'm sure we can work something out!
