I’ve become very comfortable with giving stern yet loving commands and guidance to a variety of breeds to ensure safety, well-being, and fun times all around! I am currently a UCF Nursing student and live in Lake Nona during the semester and in Gainesville on holiday breaks.

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

I love to snuggle and play with animals of all kind! I think it’s fun to observe their personality type and tailor my behavior to suit their needs and desires. I also enjoy taking pictures and videos of animals (I’m building an Instagram to house all the memories) and am very communicative with updates (typically at least once a day but I am happy to be flexible is you want more or less frequent updates). I do my best to adhere to the routine and schedule they are used to to make them feel as comfortable as possible

Krystal spent 4 nights with our boy as our first Rover sitter, and provided a great experience. We came back to a sleepy pup, a clean house, and a confidence all was well. Krystal sent updates with multiple goofy pics at least once a day, which was wonderfully reassuring for us slightly nervous fur parents. I really appreciated her willingness to meet me where I was in terms of my nerves, and think her requests for meet and greets in advance of booking speaks to a savvy professionalism. Finan looks forward to hanging out with his buddy again!

Krystal recommended we organize a meet and greet to confirm she and our dog, Finan, would be a good fit. I greatly appreciated her conscientious and professional awareness; she came prepared with a notebook of questions and calm energy. Safe to say Finan is looking forward to welcoming Krystal for a home sitting paw-ty soon.

Krystal sat for Buffy for a second time and it went great. She is very responsive and caring, we will be asking her to dog sit again!

If this is your first time with me, please set up a new client meeting by booking a drop in visit or a walk with me. These meetings are crucial for the safety of pets and smoothness of the pet care process. Questions may include: 1) Potty break/walk routine? 2) Feeding/water routine? 3) Bed time routine? 4) Fears/joys? 5) Separation anxiety? 6) Habits to reinforce/discourage? 7) A typical day in the life? 8) Is it okay to use photos of your pet on my photography Instagram?
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.
