Pet care experience

Lifelong animal lover & friend 💕

I hope you like being spammed with pictures and videos of your pet(s)! I've always had pets and enjoy spending time with animals of all kinds - just no poisonous spiders or snakes, please 😅 I always propose a meet and greet prior to the booking in a neutral area or your home. This allows your pet(s) to get used to me, especially for house-sitting requests. These are free of charge, but a key component to a successful booking all around!

Safety, trust & environment

I will never take your pet out anywhere without your permission, especially if it is hot - no hot asphalt allowed here! Note: I will never go anywhere other than designated areas approved by owners. While I am currently unable to offer care in my own home, I take care to respect your home and belongings while I am a guest there, whether I am there an hour or several days. I clean up after myself, your pet(s) and ensure that you return home without any extra work to do. The last thing anyone needs when they come back from a vacation is to have to clean! I leave your home looking just as good or better than it was when you left ✨

Crystal was terrific with our 2 dogs - I think they were disappointed when we came home. This is our first time using Rover, and Crystal had positive reviews from other pet owners, and we can't agree more. She was friendly and accommodating with us, and she had a genuine enthusiasm and affinity with our dogs. During our trip, she sent texts, photos, and videos. Our minds were eased as we saw how happy our dogs were with her. We were able to relax and enjoy our short vacation knowing that they were safe and genuinely well-cared for by Crystal.

Crystal did a great job watching our cat and our house. She was very communicative and easy to work with. Our cat got lots of attention and cuddles while we were away.

Crystal has been consistently amazing with our senior GSD. He requires meds, eye drops, and a specific feeding schedule and she has been great at fulfilling all of it. Her communication couldn't be better and she puts our minds at ease every time we have to leave town. She has become our go-to sitter due to her thoughtful and loving approach toward our dog and our home.

Crystal was a joy to work with and provided multiple updates on our senior dog while we were away. It was nice having peace of mind that our dog and house were being well cared for. We will definitely ask Crystal back again for our next trip out of town.

Crystal is our go to pet sitter! Our dog is anxious as a rescue and always does great with Crystal. We are able to enjoy our trips knowing our pup is well taken care of.

Schedule

I currently work 6am-2pm Saturday through Wednesday, but still ensure your pet’s needs are met! I enjoy getting to exercise in the form of walking and/or playing with your pet(s), and being able to bond with them, whether that's a walk, fetch, playing, cuddles on the couch or hanging out in the yard.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Dogs over 1 year old
Crystal can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
If your pet has any special needs or behaviors that I need to be aware of, please let me know - I want to make sure I can meet those needs as best as possible! I like to know what to expect when walking your dog(s), as it allows me to determine the safest way to get them exercise without compromising anyone's safety (theirs, another animal, mine, etc.)
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.

These prices are for 1 dog, including a booking fee of 11%.
