Highlights
Pet care experience
Happy Tails While You’re Away
I’ve spent the last several years fostering dogs, and it’s given me deep experience with all kinds of personalities—from shy rescues to high-energy pups and everything in between. That hands-on care taught me how to read dog body language, build trust, and create a calm, structured environment where they feel safe. What I love most is getting to know each dog’s unique personality—their quirks, their favorite toys, how they like to be walked, or even how they communicate. I tailor my care to match their needs, whether it’s playtime, cuddles, structure, or space. I'm also comfortable with basic training routines, medication, and making sure their routine stays consistent while you're away. I treat every dog like part of the family—because to me, they are.

Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in yours, I always focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment that feels familiar and stress-free for them. When pets stay in my home, I keep a clean, pet-friendly space where they can relax and feel comfortable. I stick closely to their usual routine—feeding times, walks, medication, play, or rest—so they feel secure and at ease. I limit other commitments while pets are with me to ensure they get my full attention. When I care for pets in their own home, I respect the space and keep everything as close to their normal routine as possible. I take time to learn their habits, energy levels, and preferences so I can give them personalized care—whether that means extra playtime, quiet companionship, or just sticking to what they know and love. I'm happy to keep up with any home routines too, like watering plants or bringing in mail. In either setting, I prioritize trust, consistency, and communication—so both you and your pet feel at ease while you’re apart.
Ratings and reviews
Crystal was great with our older cat willow. She gave her food, cleaned her food bowl and even changed her litter. We are so impressed by her reliability and professionalism. Definitely will be booking her again!
Very easy to communicate with!! Would definitely rebook with her :)
Crystal was absolutely wonderful with my cat, Pluto! She did drop-in visits and was always friendly, attentive, responsive, and incredibly sweet. I felt completely at ease knowing Pluto was in such good hands. She was easy to communicate with and a pleasure to work with from start to finish. I really enjoyed using her on Rover and would happily book with her again. Highly recommend!
Crystal Q. cancelled a booking within a day of the start date.
It was good to finally connect with Crystal. We felt she really took a liking to Harley when we met over the summer, and Harley seemed quite comfortable with her. Harley is 17 and blind. She may not see you, but she sure seems to know when she's safe. When we briefed Crystal this morning, Harley was right there at her feet (perhaps just waiting for us to leave?). When we finally did leave, Harley was lounging on Crystal's lap. They had a busy day, including a walk to one of our regular spots, a few naps and she was comfortable enough to go about her usual business of exploring. I don't know if we were missed or not. Thank you, Crystal, for your patience and calmness watching our girl.
Crystal did an excellent job of looking after my mom’s cat Molly. She showed up every day and went above and beyond to give extra care for Molly. I would recommend hiring Crystal to look after your pet. I’m very happy with the service.

Schedule
Pet care fits perfectly into my life right now. I work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to caring for pets. I’m also a full-time university student—but now that it’s summer break, I have even more availability to focus on what I love most: spending quality time with animals. With fewer commitments during the summer, I’m able to give each pet the time, attention, and care they deserve. Whether it’s long walks, play sessions, keeping up with feeding schedules, or just being there for company and cuddles, I’m fully available to give them my best. Taking care of pets isn’t something I squeeze in—it’s something I truly enjoy and make a priority in my daily routine.
