Pet care experience

Comfortable stay while you’re away

I have always been a dog person. I particularly have a soft spot for large dogs. There was a time that I bred and cared for labradoodle puppy litters. I’ve cared for animals that have required daily medications and am happy to administer medications as long as I am provided clear instructions.

Crystal was great with my pup, Bailey. She stayed with Crystal for a week and she took the best care of her. I received updates and cute photos of Bailey. Crystal was communicative and Bailey absolutely enjoyed her time there. Would def book with her again!

We had such a great experience with our dog sitter, Crystal! From start to finish, she went above and beyond to make sure our pups were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. We loved getting regular updates, photos, and little check-ins—it really gave us peace of mind while we were away. To top it off, Crystal even washed the dogs before we got home, which was such a thoughtful and unexpected touch. It’s clear she truly cares and treats your pets like her own. We came back to happy, clean, and relaxed dogs, which says everything. Highly recommend Crystal to anyone looking for someone reliable, caring, and attentive. We will definitely be using her again!

Crystal and her family took exceptional care of my dog. I was gone for 8 days and I don’t think Smokey missed me too much because he was having so much fun! This is the first time I left him at someone’s home and it was a perfect experience for both of us. Thank you Crystal and family!

Crystal was awesome! I had last minute plans change and my other dog sitter fell through. Crystal came to the rescue and took great care of my pups. I appreciated her communication. It’s hard to find people to trust to take care of your family but she definitely delivered! Thank you!

Safety, trust & environment

It’s hard for you to leave your pup with a stranger. And it’s hard for them to be without you. So I think it’s important to communicate what will work best for your pup to ease their stay with me and we will do that! We have a block wall fenced in yard that your dog can run around in. Also happy to go for walks if your pup would rather go on leashed walked. Your dogs stay should mirror how things are at your home…so how would you like the day to look?

A typical day

We have sprinklers in the backyard if your pup likes water play! There is also huge park at the end of the street that might be fun to explore if your pup is friendly and likes to walk on leash.
