I’ll care for your fur family!

Pet care experience

I grew up with dogs of many sizes and breeds. I have the ability to tune into the needs of different dogs. I understand that dogs are important members of the family and will treat them as such. I'm the go-to for friends and family that need dog sitting. I'll give your dog the attention, love, exercise and nourishment that they need to give you peace of mind. Ive taken care of many breeds, from Yorkies and Chihuahuas to poodles to pitbulls. I understand that, like humans, dogs can have different personalities, temperaments and needs. I'm happy to stay in and cuddle and give the pets and loving that a dog may need, do mental enrichment games,or go run around and get out energy, depending on the needs of the dog.

Crystal was great with our two cats/housesitting! She is very kind, communicative, and clean. She followed instructions well and sent us written and photo updates, which we really appreciated. We definitely recommend Crystal!

Crystal did housesitting for our dog Finn. She was very communicative and prompt to show up when she said she would. Since she works from home, she was able to stay with our dog basically all the time which we really liked. Would strongly recommend and book her again!!!

Crystal has been so helpful with multiple walks for my big bully mix Panda. She’s great with all his needs and very attentive. Thanks for getting our boy some fresh air and outdoors time while I work!

Let me know about any needs your dog has, any behaviors you’re working on, if they are reactive to other dogs, if you have preferences for pace for walking them, etc

A typical day

For dogs I know that walking is like their social media and I give them lots of time for sniffing. I will also exercise them physically for dogs that need that. I also know a lot of enrichment games and am happy to do that if that is something you want for your pet.
