Reliable Dog Walker & Drop-In Care
Hi! I’m Krystal, and I’ve been caring for pets for over 13 years. I provide dependable dog walks, drop-in visits, and in-home pet care for dogs, cats, seniors, and multi-pet households. Whether your dog needs a midday walk while you’re at work, your puppy needs a potty break and some playtime, or your pets simply do better with a consistent routine, I’m happy to help. Visits can include walks, potty breaks, meals, fresh water, medication, playtime, enrichment, and plenty of attention based on your pet’s normal routine. I also have experience caring for senior pets and pets requiring medication or a little extra patience and support. After caring for my own senior dogs, I understand how reassuring it is to have someone dependable who will take the time to get to know your pet and their individual needs. I’m available for both occasional and recurring weekday walks and drop-ins and love building long-term relationships with pets and their families. My goal is for you to feel confident that your pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.

Ratings and reviews
Well, let’s put it this way: Cosworth, our 6yo English Setter with severe food allergies, walked around the house looking for Krystal for two days after she left. So, yeah, I think he liked her! Krystal is a high energy, extremely conscientious, responsible and personality-plus individual who treats your home and pet as if they were her own. After 7 days away on vacation, we came home to a clean house (not our usual sitter experience), an emotionally and gastrointestinally happy and healthy dog who now barks in Italian thanks to her online lessons, and even freshly baked cookies in the fridge. What more could dog parents ask for? Highly recommended!
Krystal was amazing with our pup! Very professional, easy to communicate with, dependable and arriving on time. Really took the effort to get to know our pups routine and follow it as closely as possible. She made us feel at ease leaving our “fur baby” with her. Definitely recommend and will be using for future trips.
Krystal stayed at my house for 4 days and was awesome! She kept me informed, took care of and walked the dog and left the house spotless. I would utilize her again in an instant!
Krystal is amazing!! I can leave town and know my fur babies are taken care of. She is trustworthy, respectful of your space and great with pets.
I can’t recommend her enough! She takes amazing care of my dogs, Maya and Pablo. They are always so happy and calm when they’re with her, which gives me so much peace of mind when I’m away. She keeps me updated and treats them like they’re her own. Honestly, she’s a bit of a dog whisperer — they absolutely adore her! 🐾
Traveling has been so much more relaxing since we found Krystal! Our kitty Lana is a total diva, and Krystal takes such attentive, thoughtful care of her whenever we’re away. She always keeps us updated and even sends the cutest photos for us to gush over, which gives us so much peace of mind. We’re incredibly grateful to have someone we trust so much with Lana!

Schedule
Pet care is my full-time focus, and I structure my days around the pets in my care. My daytime schedule typically includes walks, drop-in visits, errands, appointments, and other everyday commitments. For boarding and house sitting, I spend plenty of time with your pet throughout the day while balancing my scheduled visits and commitments. Because of this, pets should be comfortable spending some time independently while I’m out. I also offer complimentary meet & greets so we can connect, review your pet’s routine, and make sure we’re a great fit before their stay!

Home characteristics
Safety, trust & environment
Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I do my best to maintain their normal routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and settled while you’re away. For boarding, I provide a comfortable home environment and follow your dog’s feeding, potty, walking, and sleeping routines as closely as possible. Favorite toys, treats, and comfort items are always welcome! In your home, I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding, walks, litter care, medications, playtime, and household preferences. I’m also happy to reinforce any training or routines you’re currently working on.
A typical day
Pet care is my full-time focus, so your dog will get plenty of company, attention, and care throughout their stay! I love keeping their day similar to what they’re used to at home. Depending on your dog’s routine and energy level, our day can include walks, potty breaks, playtime, enrichment, plenty of attention, and time to relax. I’m also happy to incorporate their favorite activities and routines to help them feel at home!

- Before your dog’s stay, I’d love to learn about their normal routine, personality, and what helps them feel most comfortable away from home. Please share their feeding and potty schedule, medications, exercise needs, sleeping routine, and any behavioral quirks I should know about. For boarding, I currently accept crate-trained dogs who are comfortable relaxing in their crate and being left alone for up to 4 hours at a time. Please let me know about any separation anxiety, excessive barking, escape attempts, resource guarding, reactivity, or history of aggression toward people or other animals. A meet & greet is preferred before a first stay so we can make sure your dog is comfortable with me and that boarding in my home will be a good fit. My goal is to provide a safe, relaxed environment where your dog can settle in and feel at home!
