About Crystal

Hi, I’m Crystal! 🐾

Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up around dogs, cats, horses and guinea pigs, and caring for animals has always felt natural to me. I genuinely enjoy building trust with animals and getting to know their individual personalities.

I currently volunteer with the SPCA, volunteer with dogs. I’m also studying my Level 3 Animal Care and continuing to learn about animal behaviour, enrichment and basic training. I have hands-on experience caring for kittens too, having fostered three litters.

I’m happy to help with dog walking, home visits, feeding, cleaning, playtime, companionship and general pet care. My usual walks are around 30–60 minutes, depending on your dog’s age, energy level and individual needs. Home visits can generally be 30–60 minutes, giving your pet time for feeding, toilet breaks, exercise, play and plenty of attention.

I focus on keeping pets comfortable and maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. I provide close supervision, safe play, regular toilet breaks, fresh water, feeding according to your instructions and plenty of rest time. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual routine rather than changing things unnecessarily.

Your pet’s safety is my priority. I only care for animals that I can safely supervise, keep doors and gates secure, and take extra care when entering or leaving a home. I’m also happy to discuss medication support, provided clear instructions are supplied and the medication can be safely administered.

I understand that every dog is different. Some are energetic and playful, while others are nervous, older or simply want a quiet cuddle and some company. I’m patient and happy to work at their pace.

Most importantly, I’m reliable, trustworthy, kind and compassionate. ❤️ I don’t see pet sitting as simply a job or a way to make money. I genuinely want to create that special connection and spark with animals, while giving you peace of mind that your pet is being cared for by someone who truly loves them.

Your pets are family, and I’ll treat them like family. 🐶🐱🐾

I currently can't offer to have your pets at my home as my landlord dosent allow pets but I'm more than happy to take them out for the day for an extra fee which can be discussed please feel free to reach out and ask any questions.
