I am just trying to help pet parents out. I have always been the person who family, friends and neighbors call when they need someone to watch their pets. I just started doing this professionally, but already have glowing recommendations from everyone I have worked for. I understand how important it is for your pet to be comfortable and have found the best way to do this, is to come prior to the petsitting job to do a meet and greet with your pet so they know me, when I show up to watch them. I provide updates throughout the time I am there with videos sent so you can see for yourself how your dog is doing in my care. I love taking dogs on walks and playing fetch,

Information Crystal D. would like to know about your pet

I always ask pet parents to have a go bag and instructions ready in case of evacuation. I realize we live in a high fire danger area and if something were to happen while you were away, I want you to rest assured that your pets will be safe no matter what happens.

A typical day

I am good at following directions. If you want your dog to be taken to play fetch for an hour each day rain or shine, I will happily do so. If you have a senior dog who wants to sleep next to somebody all night, I am just as happy to oblige.

Pet care experience

After having a senior dog who couldn't be by himself for even 10 minutes, I understand how hard it can be when you can't make any plans, or take a vacation, because you are worried about your dog. I just want to help people who are in the same situation I was..

Crystal has been walking my French Bulldog Pearl regularly for 2 years. She is a loving, caring, and compassionate dog-lover. Pearl adores her and so do I. Not only has Crystal been reliable and trustworthy, she has always treated Pearl like she was her own. When I returned to work full-time one of my biggest concerns was finding someone to spend time with Pearl and keep her active during the day. When I met Crystal and saw the way she interacted with Pearl and how quickly the two of them bonded a huge weight was lifted off my shoulders. I can’t say enough good things about the relationship that has formed not only between the two of them but also between the three of us. She has become a part of our family. Any family with pets would be lucky to have her!

Crystal D. is a wonderful pet sitter. She is so wonderful with my dog and 3 cats. They love her so much and we are very happy when she available to take care of our babies. She is extremely responsible and follows our instructions to a T. I get a bit paranoid when we go on vacation, but I never have to worry with Crystal as,she is so cateful with doors, gates, etc.

Crystal has been house/pet sitting for my family for the past year. She has always taken great care of our two cats and four dogs-(who all love her) in addition to feeding our chickens, ducks, goats and horses. I can honestly say she goes above & beyond for the pets she looks after.. Earlier this year she was housesitting for us when a big storm hit. And right in the middle of it she went out to check on our all of the outside amimals, and when she discovered one of the goats was missing she really stepped up and saved the day-she went out on her own in the pouring rain looking him and checking the fence for damage, trying to see how he got out. When she saw that a tree limb broken off and taken out part of the fence she did what she could to try to fix it (and even called her husband to help-who came immediately and got it back up) Then searched our entire neighborhood until our missing goat was found- and somehow managed to get him safely back to our property. By the time I got her messages and called her back to find out what had happened, she had everything handled. She was able to put my mind at easeShe was able to clearly explain the situation along with sharing pictures of everything, from the tree to the broken fence, to the repair, to reunited goats. I am pretty sure I couldnt have handled it any better myself-even our neighbors were impressed. They told me she was polite & level headed even in the middle of a chaotic situation.
