About: Ive been working with animals for over 8 years. I worked at an animal shelter in WV for three years as a kennel tech, and then at the Farlie animal hospital in WV for two as an animal technician. And currently I am working at an animal shelter in miami. I know how much our animals mean to our family but I would love the chance to care for your animal. My schedule is currently open and I would love nothing more than to fill my days meeting, playing and caring for new fur babies . I am currently not accepting boarding in my home due to temporary taking care of a friend’s dog. Who is a bit shy and nervous of new animals.

Growing up under the guidance of a dog breeder grandmother, I honed the skills to cater to every temperament. Choose peace of mind and top-notch service for your furry friends and home – because they deserve the best! My schedule for pet care services is flexible and can vary due to my day job.

When caring for my own pets, including my Chihuahua and cats, I prioritize their needs and make sure they are comfortable and happy. This includes regular walks, playtime, and plenty of snuggles. I also understand that each pet has their own unique personality and needs, and I am always willing to adapt my care to meet those needs. Whether it's feeding, grooming, or administering medication, I am dedicated to providing the best care possible for your beloved pets.

About: Ever since I was young I did not only taking a liking to all animals, as I found they too took a liking to me. Sometimes I could see pieces of myself in their souls. From then on I've been infatuated with helping them. That's become quite the task as I'm a mother now of 2. Having your own "pets" is just having a bigger family in my eyes. I've always been the friend that takes in pet guests so they can go out of town. Or house sit if necessary beings all the different types. I figured why not make a job of it!! Pet care is extremely important! I use this time daily even for snuggle time to make sure no one even our own furries are left out. It fits in just like breakfast. It's extremely important and can become very meditative. I treat guest pets with as much love and freedom as our own. I'm in a very wooded area and our pup never ventures too far and guides the other dogs around and plays with them to get them back in. He's very clever. However I would never let a guest be unleashed while unattended. While your away I like to take all opportunities to improve! Unleash time is a HUGE start and is always impressive. These simple tasks once mastered can save you pups life if ever left unattended unleashed in a new scary place. I intend to help even if it's for one day we can work on just having fun and playing inside and talking walks in the outdoors together! I am one for taking photos and sending them to let you know how much fun they are having, for you to have yours!

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and genuinely love caring for pets of all kinds - including dogs, cats, rabbits, hamsters, birds, fish, frogs, and more. Over the past 10 years, I’ve also cared for diabetic dogs of my own, giving me hands-on experience with checking glucose levels, administering medication, and providing attentive care for pets with special medical needs. I also have ample experience caring for senior pets and am very comfortable with dogs of all breeds and sizes. I understand that every pet has unique needs and routines, and I’m happy to follow strict feeding schedules, dietary requirements, medication routines, and care instructions to help your pet feel safe, comfortable, and stress-free. Because I work from home, pets are rarely left alone for long periods and receive plenty of attention, supervision, companionship, and potty breaks throughout the day. I know how important peace of mind is while you’re away, so I’m also happy to provide regular photo and video updates if desired. My home features an acre with a fenced backyard in a quiet neighborhood, creating a calm and secure environment for pets to relax and play. I treat every animal like family and strive to make them feel loved, comfortable, and cared for from the moment they arrive. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine since I work from home and have a 3-year-old Chihuahua-mix of my own. Because I’m home throughout the day, pets receive plenty of attention, supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship rather than being left alone for long periods. Working from home also gives me the flexibility to easily fit in home visits and drop-ins throughout the local area (pre/post-work and lunch breaks) while still maintaining a consistent schedule for the pets in my care. I’m very comfortable building walks, feeding schedules, exercise, medications, and cuddle time into my day while adapting to each pet’s individual needs and personality. Whether caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, loved, and as close to their normal routine as possible. I take time to learn each pet’s personality, energy level, feeding schedule, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions so they receive individualized care and attention. In my home, pets have a calm environment with plenty of supervision since I work from home, along with a fenced backyard for safe outdoor time and play. Pets are rarely left alone for long periods and receive lots of companionship, potty breaks, exercise, and affection throughout the day. In a client’s home, I make sure pets stay comfortable in their familiar environment while maintaining their usual routine for feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and bathroom breaks. I’m very respectful of both pets and homes and always aim to provide reliable, attentive care that helps owners feel at ease while they’re away. I’m also happy to provide regular photo and video updates so owners can see how their pets are doing and feel connected while they’re gone.

About: I have been around dogs for as long as I can remember. There has almost never been a period of time when we did not have a pet. I was responsible for my pets since before middle school. As someone who gets worried easily for my loved ones and little companions, I will make sure to offer as many updates as needed and reassurance for any owners who may worry about their pets. I have a fully open schedule as of right now and will fully dedicate myself to pet care. I will do my best to work around pet owners’ schedules. They will be fed and taken care of as instructed by the owners. I will work with any requirements they have and make sure to communicate well.

Crystal is our new go-to dog sitter!! My baby Chance had kennel cough a week and a half before our vacation so we couldn’t board him. Crystal was an absolute life saver when we were scrambling for a last minute booking. She went above and beyond for our fur baby and helped us craft a schedule that would be perfect for his needs. She truly treated him like he was her own! Seeing all the cute pictures and her detailed notes gave me and my husband such peace of mind on our vacation. We highly recommend her!

About: I was taking care of dogs for friends and family that have gone out of town and need a sitter for a little while. I love animals of all breeds. Anytime someone needed a sitter I would be there to feed, walk and bathe them. I am currently not working right now. I am staying home to take care of my two kids. One of them is going to go onto kindergarten and the other is only a couple months old. I am able to take care of dogs any day of the week.I have a pretty flexible schedule. I have a fenced backyard and I have dogs who are very friendly that can keep your fur baby comfortable. I can put them in the crate if needed and take them on long walks and to the park. I will play with them outside and keep an eye on them when they are inside the fenced yard just to make sure they don’t escape (My dogs are pretty crafty like that). They will be safe with me.

About: What sets me apart is my reliability, awareness, and attention to detail. I’m used to staying calm under pressure and paying close attention to my surroundings, which translates directly into keeping your pet safe on every walk. I’m comfortable handling strong, energetic dogs as well as more timid or older pets, and I always prioritize consistency, safety, and clear communication with owners. I work full-time night shifts (6 PM–6 AM) about 14 days a month, which gives me plenty of free time during the day, as well as before and after work. This allows me to give pets the attention they deserve—whether that’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company. I enjoy being active with animals and making sure they’re happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for any pet. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walk times, and any specific instructions from the owner. I make sure the environment is secure, clean, and free of hazards, and I always keep a close eye on pets during walks or visits. I respect my client’s home, maintain clear communication, and ensure pets feel comfortable and stress-free while in my care.

About: I have had my dog for over five years. He lives with my parents while I am in school, so I need some furry friends to love on and care for while I am here! I also have done a lot of pet sitting over the years for close friends, neighbors, and coworkers. I am on summer break currently so I have a pretty open schedule! Usually throughout the week my work schedule remains from about 10:30-5:30 but there is much flexibility! Because I have pet sat for many people, I know how to handle being in another person's home while caring for their pet. Strong boundaries need to be put in place for the pet and pet sitter to feel comfortable enough to give efficient attention and care to the pet without crossing many major lines. This all is dependent upon good and clear communication with the owner and sitter!

About: A few months ago, we lost our boy to cancer. We aren’t ready for a new dog of our own, but love having furry visitors, so I’ve just got myself all set up on Rover. I’m currently a stay-at-home mom. I have time everyday anytime of the day if you need me. I also walk in the morning,afternoon and the evening behind my house I have a lake that’s has a path to walk and it’s 1 mile around the lake. I also have a dog park near by my house. I'm really great with communication. If you have any rules for your fur baby I will follow. I also have three really friendly dogs. I can easily crate your dog if needed (again if that okay with you).
