Courtney Faulkner

Courtney, otherwise known as The Fairy Dog Mama, is a 24-year-old woman who is passionate about providing safe and force-free animal care. Her story begins when she started working at a Force-Free Dog training and daycare facility 6 years ago. She soon discovered there was a need for live-in care and private dog walking services for the dogs she worked with at the facility. She built close relationships with her clients and learned more about the force-free philosophy of dog training, and quickly began expanding her network of families who needed her.
