Your fur baby is in good hands!

Pet care experience

I’ve been an animal lover since I was 4 and have been taking care of my own dog for all 8 years of her life. I trained her as a puppy to be an obedient adult who knows where to potty and how to behave during off leash walking. She’s a sweetheart who loves kids and other dogs. Now that she is older, I’ve learned how to support her through her joint pain, delicate stomach and keeping her healthy despite low energy. Before Erika, I had taken care of 2 dogs while growing up. They were my dad’s Shih Tzus. I also raised my cat Gucci for the first 6 years of his life. See the pictures on my profile for a look at my four-legged fam over the years!

Cristalle was amazing. She came to save the day and take my dog out for a walk as well as give her a little snack on a day I had to work late. She’s super friendly (Stella loved her right away!) and punctual.

For Drop-In Services: While you’re at work or otherwise busy, I’d be happy to drop in on your pet and make sure they get fed, played with and cuddles! In addition to some entertaining company, I also offer bathing and grooming services (including brushing their teeth). And for those that need to expel some energy, I will gladly walk and play with them outside during the visit. No need to book an extra walking service - you’ll get the discounted price for 15, 30 or 60 minute walks. Feel free to message me if you are interested in any of these additional services. For Walking Services: I’ll come to you and make sure your pooch gets some exercise and pants of fresh air. I’ll be sure to send you some pictures and videos of your fur baby enjoying themselves. Schedule a booking with me for 30 or 60 minute walks!

Information Cristalle D. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your animal has any special needs. I’d be happy to accommodate them! Please share any medical concerns and revenant vet history if they apply to your animal. I do have vast experience with older dogs and know that they need a little more TLC sometimes. I am also happy to follow any specific instructions for how to best take care of your animal. Also, please let me know if I should know anything about your dogs behavior around other animals and humans. I can adjust the walking route and/or activities planned to fit your pup’s needs. Lastly, if there are any specific treats or toys your animal enjoys, feel free to share that too! I want to make sure your animal feels comfortable and has as much of a good time with me as I will taking care of them!

A typical day

I love to play with both dogs and cats. I find it especially funny when I get cats to chase string, lasers or other toys. I do enjoy dog parks, but I am aware that not all dogs like them and I’ll be happy to take your pup along a sidewalk instead. I recognize that dogs love the outside and are super curious so I make sure to let them to take their time sniffing and exploring on walks.
