Pet care experience

A heart-centered caregiver

Animal lover and a bit of an animal whisperer as a child. Grew up with my own animals and have always had the mother/nurturing archetype. Masters degree in speech language pathology with specialty in working with individuals who are non-speaking. I have spent well over 15 years reading energy and tracking non-verbal communicative cues to best support and advocate for my clients. I do the same for animals as well. Animals are like family and everyone deserves to feel respected, loved, safe and looked after.

Safety, trust & environment

I have provided overnight care and worked in countless homes as both a professional therapist and as a caregiver for adults, children and animals. I am responsible, attentive, clean, tidy, caring and genuine. Many of my clients share that they or their animals respond well to my calm, grounded and safe presence.

Christal is a true animal lover and the feeling is mutual. She connects with them easily to understand their specific needs. My boy Jack loves when he gets Christal time while I'm traveling!

Christal is the most loving, kind person toward pets I have ever met. She's present, intuitive, can pick up on their cues, and will give them all the care and attention they need. She is incredibly responsible and capable for any and all pet/house sitting needs.

Christal is so kind and caring to people and animals alike and has such a calming presence. My cat Pod(short for Poddrick (G.O.T. IYKYK)) loves when she comes over. She is a great communicator and very attentive. You're pets will thank you for their new bestie!

I highly recommend Christal as a dog sitter. She took amazing care of my dog, Bodhi, and I felt completely at ease while he was with her. She’s reliable, attentive, and clearly loves animals, Bodhi was happy and well cared for the entire time. I would absolutely trust her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a great sitter.

Schedule

I am building remote work and currently doing a handful of therapy sessions in person, which means I can be home and present with your animal 85-90% of the time. I really enjoy attuning to and loving on the animals that I get to share time and space with.
