Caring for creatures great & small
Pet care experience
Hi there! I have been taking care of local family's homes, pets and children for over 15 years. I'm a licensed veterinary technician who has worked in local hospitals for several years. Currently I work as a nanny for small children, but still need time to snuggle the four legged family members as well. Additionally, I'm a Breneke School of Massage graduate and have been told by several cats and dogs that I give the best "pets". I also love other types of critters and have experience caring for cats, birds, rabbits, guinie pigs, rats, and the occasional reptile. Growing up in Seattle, I know the ins and outs of most of its neighborhoods, and the secret parks, trails and dog friendly pubs it has to offer.
Reviews
Went out of town for Thanksgiving day weekend and Krystle house-sat and watched my two dogs. She did a great job! She took great care of my place and dogs Daisy & Buddha. I will definitely rebook with her next time I travel out of town, highly recommend her services 5 stars.
I can't say enough about how wonderful Krystle is as a dog sitter! You cannot go wrong with her. She is magic with dogs and ours were so happy with her as of the first day! We now know we an go on vacation with peace of mind that our dogs will be well cared for!
Let's just say that Krystle might possibly take better care of both my dog and home than I do - and I'm a pretty obsessive dog lover and homeowner! Krystle has been staying in our home with our dog, Lyla, for about 4 years. Lyla is very sweet and well-trained and, like many dogs, has some issues (namely dog reactivity and a bit of human anxiety). From the get go, Krystle has managed her with great skill, calm, and care. It is a HUGE relief to know that Lyla is in such competent hands when we go away. We trust Krystle so much that she has also been helping care for our 18-month old daughter almost since the day she was born. Both of our "kids" absolutely love having Krystle in the family. I don't know what else to say. Five stars. Two thumbs up. Gold standard. Krystle may be the best dog decision you ever make.
Krystle was great with Shadow. We met ahead of time to go over everything (since I'm a paranoid dog mom) and she listened to all my instructions. She sent me pictures and updates while I was away and left my place as clean as it was at the start of her stay - which is awesome when the last thing you want to do after traveling is clean! When I returned, Shadow was super happy, so I know that he enjoyed staying with Krystle while I was away.

A typical day
My favorite places in the city are Discovery Park and Carkeek Park, I love exploring all the beautiful trails and open green spaces they have to offer. If your pup loves swimming and/or socializing, Magnison Park is also a top destination. If a slower pace is more their style, I also love walking (or driving) to the nearest park and finding the perfect bench to watch the world go by.
