Pet care experience

Kristal’s Dog Sanctuary

I and my family are available to take care of your pet during the day, overnight, whenever is needed! We have owned several dogs and cats over our lifetimes and have taken care of many different dogs. We have a deep passion for animals and will give your dog(s) the very best care. We have been very active with Rover and have owned dogs for roughly 20 years and are only recently without dogs since our last one passed away a few years ago. Since we no longer have dogs of our own, we can give yours special one-on-one attention and are also a good fit for dogs that do best without the stress of other dogs. We have two cats and have a good set-up where they can easily escape if needed. They are very used to meeting different dogs and will come around after a day or two! I work but the other two members of my family are always home. My husband may leave for a maximum of two hours at a time here and there but is largely home, so your pet will always have complete 100% one-on-one attention at all times! We are experienced and highly comfortable managing structured schedules for dogs with special needs. Whether your pet requires strict morning and evening medication administration, precisely timed feeding windows, or closely monitored potty breaks, we ensure their routine remains completely uninterrupted. We take pride in providing a reliable, anchored schedule so your pet feels safe, stable, and perfectly cared for while you are away. If your dog has special needs such as strict morning and evening medication and feeding routines and since this requires dedicated, timed availability, we do apply a small special care premium of $10 per day for structured schedules. This fee would be talked about and added upon meeting your dog and discussing special needs requirements.

Kristal and Scott did a wonderful job taking care of our Rosie Rae. They kept us updated and sent pics daily. I recommend them highly. Very nice couple and very clean house Will absolutely use them again.

Kristal and Scott were absolutely wonderful watching my two “pups” for over a week! From the very beginning, I could tell they genuinely cared about my dogs and treated them like part of their family. They took such thoughtful extra care with my older dog and her medications, which gave me incredible peace of mind while I was away. At the same time, they kept my younger girl happy, active, and entertained with lots of fetch and playtime — exactly what she loves! Every daily update and photo made it so much easier to relax during my trip because my girls always looked cozy, comfortable, happy, and incredibly well cared for. It was obvious they were getting lots of love, attention, and affection. I truly cannot thank Kristal and Scott enough for the care, patience, and kindness they showed my dogs. I would absolutely trust them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for caring, attentive sitters!

They did a great job taking care of our girl Nix for a few nights. She seemed to feel right at home. I would highly recommend Crystal and Scott.

Kristal did an awesome job taking care of our 'baby" and making her feel at home while we were out of state for a wedding. She kept us up on how Shasta was doing & sent pictures each day. It was good to see how she had found her favorite spot in their home & also enjoyed their outside fenced-in yard. Since they no longer have a dog of their own & only take in one boarder at a time, she had more attention than some days at home! We would definitely take her to Kristal again.
