Love and Scritches!!

Pet care experience

I have worked in the veterinary field for 22 years as a Veterinary Assistant/technician. I have worked in Cat specialist hospitals, ER, I was an anesthesia tech, neurology tech, Surgical tech and nonprofit. I am now retired from vet medicine but love for animals is a calling so I am continuing to care for them a different way. I would love the opportunity to meet you and your baby or babies and see if we are a fit for each other.

Krystal is very experienced with cats and dogs. She is a former colleague of mine in the vet field. She has decades of experience working with cats and dogs. She has an uncanny ability to calm a nervous animal and be able to read their behavior signs to know how to approach them. She is very compassionate towards animals and understands them better than anyone I have met before.

Safety, trust & environment

Unfortunately I have a household with numerous cats and a Chihuahua with varying health concerns and some special needs so care in my personal is not an option. Overnight visits are preferred within 20 miles of my zip code but I will drive further. I can stop by for mid-day walk, potty break, medication. I love cats and dogs but I do feel like cats get a little neglected in the realm of petsitting. Yes they are a little more self sufficient then dogs but they get stressed and lonely when you leave for long periods, sometimes more than dogs. I take that extra time with them as silly as it may seem it's as simple as sitting with them after feeding them and then a little play or cuddle time. If they don't want that, because cats do what the want 😉 then simply sitting and reading or watching TV for a bit while being near them. Cats are creatures of habit and do not like change so I will keep to their schedule as best as I can. Now I love the pups too so I do all of this as well for them. My babies have a specific routine, I understand the importance of this for both owner and pet. I will stick to your routine as close as possible. I do require meet and greets for all new clients and/or new pets, dogs and cats.

Information Krystal H. would like to know about your pet

Let me know if your pet has any special needs or medical conditions. How are they on walks when encountering dogs/people? They must have some basic training/manners and please have a non-retractable leash available.

A typical day

As I don't provide care in my home I will rely on what is in your area. I will definitely do some research and get your input on fun places to go for walks and explore. But we will get walks and playtime and snuggles.
