Pet care experience

I am patient & aware of pets needs

I am happy to offer services in your home as you spend some time away from home. I offer Housesitting as an alternative service option for multiple drop-in requests, this allows me to care for your home, mail retrieval, yard and garden as well. Please note, that I do not spend the night at clients homes. I require a meet and greet before booking for your comfort and mine. Your home and pets must be comfortable and safe for children, as I have two children that may come along for house visits. My dear Oakley, 13 year old large Labrador Retriever, crossed over the rainbow bridge September 2022. Caring for him has taught me alot about how much time and care it takes to have a pet, sometimes an owner needs to be gone for a little too long from their pet. I've been there.

House Sitting • Jul 28, 2024

Krystal was AMAZING! Not only did she do amazing with watching my dog (who takes awhile to warm up to people) and making her feel comfortable while I was away BUT all my plants inside and outside were still alive. My timeline changed a couple times with flight delays, she was able to assist with no issues. I felt very comfortable with her being in my house and taking care of my baby. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and trustworthy. I will be using her for future trips.

What a pleasant surprise to find Krystal in our neighborhood! It could not have been a better fit for our dog. We knew as soon as we met Krystal that Bosco would be so happy and well taken care of. She loves dogs, is experienced, knowledgeable and knew exactly how to make Bosco feel at home. She will be our go-to dog sitter in the future without a doubt.

Schedule

I live in Bellingham, near Demming, I am flexible with my days. I do have drop off and pick up times for my children's camp/school. I would ideally schedule drop-in around those times. If more than 1 visit is needed, I highly recommend messaging me to schedule a Housesitting visit so I can accommodate your pet(s) and homecare needs at a bundled price to cater your needs.

Cats
0 to 15 lbs
16 to 40 lbs
41 to 100 lbs
Krystal can host up to 2 drop-ins per day
I do request to only work with well behaved dogs and animals who are not aggressive towards other dogs or people, especially young children. I am happy too walk leash trained dogs, however not comfortable walking large weighing dogs who lunge or bark aggressively at other animals (skateboards and bicycles are understandable, and I do my best to avoid stressful situations during walks). If they are not well behaved on a leash, they may be limited to backyard excereize. Please inform me of the following: - Has your dog ever bitten anyone before? - Leash Trained? - Non-reactive or reactive while walking past other dogs on a trail/sidewalk? - Do they have experience with young children and how do they behave around them? - For geriatric dogs, do they need assistance walking up and down stairs, in and out of the home or dog bed? - Is your dog obsessive over food bowls and toys? - Separation anxiety? What helps? What happens when left alone, even for a few minutes? Is a crate acceptable for short periods or not? -Please be up to date of immunizations and deworming. **Whether you scheduling drop-in or Housesitting visits** If it's apparent that your dog or cat has worms, I will charge an additional $25/hr, at $25 minimum, for my time to provide communication to you, appropriate care, sanitation, and my preference is to have your vet bill you directly for any treatment/medication that I pick up and administer. Please have your dogs weight updated on their profile for this purpose.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
