Pet care experience

I'll treat your dog as my own

I had my dog Cooper for almost 7 years before he unexpectedly passed last October and just recently finished fostering a dog until he found his forever home. I have never met a dog that I didn't love and want to play with. I work full time during the week and I am work from home on Wednesdays. I live very close to work so am able to travel home for a break during the day if need be. I am very good when it comes to dealing with dogs that have a lot of energy, and I am pretty good about keeping them under control on walks. I am also patient with dogs when they want to sniff around on a walk. I have taken care of dogs all sizes for my family in the past & they get along with my dog great.

Crystina has been fantastic! She took care of our very demanding and reactive dog at our place while we were away. Crystina did an absolutely great job walking our dog and feeding him twice a day (our dog is very picky about the food). Also, Crystina agreed to take care of our dog at the very last moment when our regular sitter canceled our booking.

Crystina took great care of our Peanut while we were away for a week. We are very particular when it comes to who we leave him with as he suffered a back injury a couple years ago and has special care needs as a result. Thank you, Crystina!

Calendar and availability

Schedule

I work and live in the Houston Heights area, so I am very close to home when I go into the office and can come back if needed. I wake up early to workout and like to take a long walk before or after work.

Safety, trust & environment

I allow dogs on the furniture and the bed if they want, although I do live in ann apartment I frequently take my dog outside to go for walks around my apartment, which is very dog friendly.

A typical day

I live close to walking trails and not far from memorial park which are great areas to walk dogs. When home with the dogs I have a lot of toys for them to play with along with giving them cuddles.

I would like to know if your dog has any behaviors that I should know about, any aggression towards other dogs, or aggressions in general, or anything else you might find important for me to know.
