Highlights
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. 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, exotics, 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 🐾🍄✨🥰

Ratings and reviews
My pup luv it at his daycare. He always comes out with a smile on his face fully energized. And when I mention daycare with his friends he gets excited. I would highly recommend. ❤️ ❤️ ❤️
First time using Rover and crystal was wonderful! Answered all my questions and my pup had a great day!
Max loves it like home away from home and summer camp. I have peace of mind and will use no one else.
Crystal and Lyle were wonderful caregivers to my cat, Benny. They sent plenty of updates and photos. Would absolutely choose them again!
Myself and my wife loved and appreciated everything about our first boarding experience, our host was very informational, professional, friendly and courteous. We definitely wouldn’t hesitate to book again. Thanks
Crystal and Lyle were out of this world per usual! Our boys just love staying with them so much! They are amazing at sending photos and giving them all the love! I could not recommend two individuals more! I am so appreciative of the way they take care of our boys! Would give them 100 stars if I could!

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 Lyle and our fur babies during the day while I’m at work. ✨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 7:30-9am and 2-9pm, 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 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!
- Cats0 to 15 lbs16 to 40 lbs41 to 100 lbsover 101 lbsNo females in heatCrystal & Lyle can host up to 10 pets per night
- To keep our guests safe, all pets are required to be fully vaccinated to stay with us in our home. Proof of vaccines will need to be provided before their stay can begin. Any health concerns are definitely worth noting and if they have any allergies or food/treat sensitivities. Also please let me know if they’re food aggressive or have any strange habits. If your pet is coming to our home for boarding or daycare, we would like to know how they have been socialized in the past, and if they have any breeds or types of pets they don’t get along with. We can keep unaltered pets, however we cannot accommodate females in heat, and we will not keep the opposite gender at the same time if they are not fixed. As long as everybody gets along we’ll all have fun!
