About: Hi there, I'm Krystal, a genuine animal lover! I have an American Pit bull terrier about to be 2 years old and leopard gecko. I have a large yard and home with plenty of space for outdoor play, a few parks and a bayou nearby to take your fur baby out on a nice walk. I would prefer all pets to be house trained but its okay if they're pad trained. I work during the daytime and rotate care shifts with my hubs when I'm away so your fur baby will always have a set of eyes on them at all times. We are a team with pet sitting so your baby will always be in good hands! For overnight care, I'll be able to stay and care for your pet in your home as well while you're away. Any special requests can be accommodated. Do not be afraid to ask questions during a booking! Let me know when I can care for your pet! I’m always glad to help and be a care giver! I work daytime Mon-Friday from 9am-6pm but work fairly close to home and take 1hr lunch with my fur baby daily. Potty breaks are frequently given. I do offer a medium crate and separate eating/drinking tray for your fur baby! Shampoos and brushing available upon request during their stay and can be given if they do get dirty during their stay or outdoor/playtime.

“Anne was so sweet and got a along great with my fur child. She showed up on time every day and took plenty of pictures of my kitten while the wife and I were away for 10 days. She was also very communicative. I felt very at ease. You can tell she truly loves and cares about animals. I would definitely use her again”
