About: I've dog sat and dog walked for my friends, for up to a few weeks of continuous care, ranging from puppies to older dogs. I also have experience cat-sitting and all the duties associated with that! I work full-time and am on Rover as something to do in my free time! I just really love all animals and thought it would be great to help owners out. Think of me as someone who can come by while you go out and enjoy the weekend or have a night out! I work from home so I'm able to take care of pets during office hours as well! While I'm not able to take care of pets at my own home, I'll always respect the rules of your house and property. Please let me know every detail of care for your pet as well as your home! I am detail-oriented and will make sure to follow it to a tee!
“Crystal was wonderful with drop-in visits for my two cats. She was great about communicating and the cats loved her. I came home to a full water and food bowl, clean litter box, and the trash was even taken out. I will use her again and 100% recommend her to other!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, belonging to family, friends, neighbors, or brand-new clients. My care is full of love, snuggles, and focused attention. I’m detail-oriented and follow owner instructions carefully, ensuring your dog stays safe, healthy, and happy. I have experience with everything from energetic puppies to gentle senior dogs, and I’m comfortable administering medications or handling special diets. For me, spending time with animals is more than a job—it’s a joy and a privilege I look forward to whenever I have the opportunity. I look forward to meeting your pet! I'm currently between jobs and seeking opportunities that align with my interests. My calendar is very flexible and I'm able to accommodate various schedules, so let me know what you need! I care for pets by giving them loving attention and following owner instructions carefully. I make sure I understand all that is needed at the beginning of a job, and if questions arise, I never hesitate to contact the pet owner. I enjoy playing with pets and taking dogs out for walks, or even hikes if they and the owner are open to that. I'm basically ready to be their new favorite playmate :)
About: I have extensive experience caring for both cats and dogs, ensuring their safety, comfort, and happiness at all times. What sets me apart from other sitters is my attention to detail, patience, and genuine love for animals. I understand that every pet has its own personality and needs, so I take the time to follow specific routines, dietary requirements, and any special instructions you provide. In addition to general care, I have skills in administering oral medications, handling anxious pets, and reinforcing basic commands for dogs. I’m also experienced in recognizing signs of stress or illness, which allows me to respond quickly if a situation arises. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding, or giving attention, I make sure pets feel loved and secure while their owners are away. My goal is to provide the same level of care and affection they would receive from you. Pet care is an important and enjoyable part of my day! I plan my schedule around the pets I’m caring for, making sure they get their walks, meals, and attention right on time. Spending time with animals is something I look forward to, so I always make sure they have the care and love they need every single day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my first priority. When I’m in your home, I follow your instructions carefully and make sure everything is secure and pet-friendly. I give your pets plenty of love and attention so they feel happy and stress-free while your away. If I care for them in my home, they’Ll have a clean cozy space with fresh water, a comfortable resting area, a big fenced in backyard, and lots of playtime. I always make sure pets feel safe, loved and well cared for in any environment.
