Pet care experience
I’ve been a repeat care taker for my friends and family’s pets and homes for years and after recently deciding take a break from the corporate world, I have now committed full time to giving dependable aunty pet care. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust to care for your pets, so I take care to always act with full aloha and to be mindful of what makes you and your pet the happiest. Catered care is especially important to me as every animal has different needs and desires. I feel comfortable giving medications as needed and love to take beautiful pictures too! An active and early riser, my flexible schedule allows me to adjust to whatever suits your needs best. I currently have full availability in the morning, midday and early evening. I unfortunately live in a tiny apartment that is not pet friendly, so I’m not able to board in my home. If we decide to work together, I think it’s important that we all meet once before to make sure it’s a good fit for everyone and to learn more about how to give the best possible care to your pet.
Reviews
From the moment we met Crystal, it was clear that she has a genuine love and passion for animals. Not only did she promptly arrive at the agreed-upon times, but she also consistently went above and beyond in her duties. Our rambunctious younger pup, who can be quite a handful, took to her immediately. Crystal managed to channel his energy in positive ways, ensuring he had ample playtime and exercise. On the other hand, our 14-year-old dog, who requires a gentler touch and extra care, was showered with love and affection. Crystal’s ability to cater to the unique needs of each pet is truly commendable. Communication was seamless and easy throughout our time away. Crystal regularly sent us photos and videos, keeping us updated on our pup’s well-being and activities. She was proactive in her approach, always checking in to see if there was anything additional she could do to make our pets more comfortable. Beyond her pet-sitting duties, Crystal showcased her thoughtfulness in other ways. For instance, she watered our plants and remembered to take out the trash on the designated day, ensuring our home was well-maintained in our absence. In conclusion, Crystal is not just a pet sitter; she's a caring individual who treats your pets and home as if they were her own. We wholeheartedly recommend her services to anyone in need of a reliable and compassionate pet sitter.
Couldn’t recommend Crystal highly enough! She came through for us in a clutch, last-minute need-a-pet-sitter situation with such grace and understanding. Took excellent care of our 13-month-old English bulldog, going above and beyond with baths and daily adventures to keep her clean and happy. Crystal sent perfectly-timed photos and updates to keep us posted on our pooch, so that there was never a doubt she was in good hands. I felt like she truly understood and enjoyed taking care of our fur baby. If you’re seeking a reliable, communicative, responsible pet sitter/caregiver, Crystal is an absolute must!
Crystal took amazing care of my 2 special needs kitties. My cat dexter is kind of a jerk to my other cat and will often steal her food. Crystal made sure that dexter didn't eat monkey's food and that he ate his diet specific meals. She was also able to successfully give him his oral medication every day even though he doesn't like it. The kitties weren't even excited to see me when I came home because they loved Crystal so much. I'll use her anytime I travel!
crystal is amazing and one of few people I feel comfortable watching my 2 senior dogs. She works hard to make sure they are comfortable and happy while I'm away. They need lots of attention and require a special diet, but crystal easily handles that. The house is always cleaner then we left, no matter how long we are gone. She even sends photos of my babies, which helps me relax and enjoy my trip. I highly recommend crystal for dog walking, dog sitting and house sitting!

Information Crystal J. would like to know about your pet
I love to know as much as possible so that means discussing what your dog doesn’t enjoy just as much as what makes them the most happy and excited. If they have a specific schedule that they’re used to, a favorite treat or toy, please let me know. I’m happy to provide oral medication and detailed instructions on how best to do so is always helpful.
A typical day
Catered care is especially important to me. My goal each visit is to make sure both the pet and the owner is happy so with that in mind every visit experience can be different. Maybe simple walks in the neighborhood or throwing a ball in your backyard is ideal. Or possibly going to run on the beach or on a hike for a more active experience. I’m available for it all.
