Hi my name is Courtney E. and I currently work at Life Time Athletic in Urbandale, Iowa in the Kids Academy. I am a dog lover and have a 10-year-old yellow lab of my own. I recently dog sat for a family with an Australian Cattle Dog/mixed breed. Her name was Annie and she was 10 years old. I let her out in the morning, took her on a walk around the block, fed and played with her and then let her out in the afternoon and night. I am very comfortable with dogs having lived in a neighborhood with boxers, huskies, labs, German Shepards, and many more. My dog is a yellow lab and she is 10. I volunteer regularly at Furry Friends Animal Refugee and received 50 volunteer hours a year with my school. My 10-year-old dog is afraid of hardwood floor (we have rugs in our house) and stairs. I am very comfortable mixing dog food because my dog is a picky eater and has special food. I just graduated high school but I do have references. I have a 4. 0 GPA and I am going to attend University of Northern Iowa in the fall to study secondary education. Hope to hear from you.

Courtney was great with our kids (ages 9 and 4) - they had a fun time with her! She kept them entertained, and the kids can't wait for her to babysit again sometime!
