Pet care experience
Crystal’s Critter Cottage 🐾🍄✨
Hello all! 😸 I have had a passion for animals since the day I was born and I’ve owned all type of pets my entire life. Currently my partner and I have 2 dogs, 2 cats and a couple aquariums. 💖 I have been pet sitting for over 20 years now and have loved every moment of it! I’m currently a veterinary nurse, and previously managed a local dog daycare for nearly 8 years. I am capable of giving oral meds, eye and ear drops, insulin and subcutaneous fluids, as well as nail trims, gland expression, bathing, brush and blowouts, dematting and simple haircuts like face, feet and sanitary trims. 🛁 I am comfortable caring for any species of pets including rodents, reptiles, birds and aquariums also! 🐾🐶🐱🐭🐹🐰🐸🦔🦜🐍🐠💘 I have a dream to own my own pet facility in the future, and I plan to work with pets for the rest of my life! In 2024 I started my own, fully insured, LLC and plan to build my knowledge in pet care and grow my business every day 🐾🍄✨🥰

Greta always comes home in good spirits after spending the weekend with Crystal and Lyle! Very easy to communicate with.
They took great care of Luna again! Always sends plenty of updates and i know she had a good time.
As always, Crystal and Lyle take great care of Jax. He always has so much fun at their house. They send pictures and updates. They were also in the process of moving and still helped us out with Jax! Thank you!
My dogs love it at their house. That’s the most important thing to me. Lyle is so good with them. Thank you guys
Jax loves going to Crystal and Lyle’s! He made a new friend this week and came home exhausted! Crystal and Lyle are so good about sending updates and pictures.
Pavlov and us love Crystal & Lyle's critter cottage :). He always seems to have a good time, gets a variety of experiences, and Crystal & Lyle are consistent and reliable. We trust them with our big baby.

Schedule
✨I currently work at a veterinary clinic, so I am available for home drop-ins before & after work, plus I offer daycare and boarding in my home as well. Your pet will stay home with my partner and our fur babies during the day while I’m at work. They can stay in or out of a wire crate per your request, and their behavior. ✨For Daycare As I stated above, my partner, Lyle, works from home and helps me run my business! Their job is pretty flexible, so they are available for potty breaks and play/snuggle time frequently. Lyle worked with me at the dog daycare for multiple years and is fantastic with pets of all sorts. Drop off and pick up hours are between 7-9am and 3-9pm, if other times are needed we can try to make arrangements to fit your schedule. We try to keep things as close to your pet’s normal schedule as we can, so let us know if you have any additional requests to keep your pet comfy 💕
Where your pet will stay
Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
✨We have a large yard with a full privacy fence, so there’s plenty of room to romp about and an unlimited amount of toys to play with! All of my pets have grown up in the daycare environment, so they get along with each other and other pets who have stayed in our home. ✨Your pet will get to go outside to potty every couple hours, and we keep puppy pads on hand for any young ones who are still learning. ✨Your pet is also welcome to snuggle up in bed with us or sprawl out on the couch if they’d like! I have plenty of dog beds laying all around so they will be sure to find a comfy place to relax and rest. 💖 We offer a very calm & peaceful environment so your fur baby is going to have a great time, whether they prefer to nap or play all day!
Pets
A typical day
We have plenty of toys and keep the TV on or music playing during the day if we both need to leave for any reason. Pets will only be crated at the owner’s request, as we have cameras to monitor everyone if we do both need to leave at the same time. In most cases your dog can ride in the car with us on our errand, as we usually take our tiny dog everywhere we go. We also take weekend trips to the DutchBro’s drive-thru for pupcups, if yours would like to join!
